    Tom was very helpful and strived for the perfect wedding pictures for us. He spoke to me by phone prior to the wedding and discussed what we wanted for our pictures. He's full of energy and took tons of pictures. I would recommend Tom for sure!!! Thank you Seaside Bride for recommended Tom Shane Photography!!!

    Tom was amazing. He captured shots I couldnt have imagined I would want to have. He worked quickly and was great at getting the young children to smile for the camera. The best was when my husband asked Tom to come to our reception venue, which wasn't planned, and he did. We are so happy with our photos. I would bighly recommend Tom for any event. He was a pleasure to work with.

    Tom did a great job taking pictures at our wedding! He worked very well with everyone who was there, from little kids to older adults. Tom took every picture we requested and even had some great ideas for additional photos. We had a sunset wedding and he captured the colors perfectly! I would highly recommend Tom to others!

    Thank you Tom, for the beautiful video and photos! Our friends and family have all said wonderful things about your work.

    We had planned the wedding to be finished just before sunset so Tom could take pictures at that time, but we ended up a bit behind schedule. He did such a wonderful job of getting it all done before dark, and we ended up with some incredible photos. He was fun and creative, very personable and knowledgeable. Tom was recommended to us by Rev. Allen Lincoln, and using him for our wedding was an excellent choice.

    All the best Tom, thank you!!

    Tom did an awesome job on our wedding photos. He snapped all the pictures requested and they came out beautiful. Just my luck he was well in our budget, friendly, and professional. At times I didn't even notice he was there, but when the final set of pictures came out, he caught moments I am fortunate to have captured! I would recommend and definitely use him for plenty of other functions.

    If you are looking for an amazing photographer Tom is the right choice. It didn't matter what I asked of him he always respond with a yes and with a smile. He was able to capture beautiful imagines of our daughter and her friends "16 and 17 years old" I have no idea how he got all of those kids to look so good in so many shots. He is an artist that's for sure!!!!

    Tom Shane is a talented photographer, who is an amazing value. He was able to capture every important moment of our special day. I provided a short list of "must capture" moments for our wedding, and he was able to snap those important moments and so many more. We were impressed with his photographs, as well as his excellent customer service. We are currently trying to select the photos for our wedding photo book, and have so many great options to choose from!

    Working with Tom Shane was a wonderful experience. He is a true professional! He was very easy to work with and never seemed to get uptight when things didn't go as planned. He captured our magical day better than I ever imagined. I have recommended him to several friends already and will continue to.

    Tom was amazing! From the time I first contacted him he was professional, very helpful and had no surprises in what to expect. Our big day went by so quickly, but when we got our dvd he captured it all beautifully - would definitely recommend Tom Shane Photography!

    We found Tom Shane to be excellent value for his price and were impressed immediately with his previous work. Tom was able to travel to our location from Sarasota. He was very flexible with our schedule as we had to make numerous changes. His professionalism showed by arriving to our venue early as did his experience as a photographer. The wedding day goes so fast that without our photographer Tom there it would be a blur trying to remember. He captured in a timeline those special moments. Tom was able to make our guests feel at ease taking numerous pictures of guests, special family requests and many candid moments. We are more than pleased to recommend Tom to any future couples!

    Tom - thank you for the amazing pictures of our beach wedding! We really appreciate you getting every shot we requested, plus many, many more we never thought of! Sending us out the DVD of the high resolution pics SO quickly after the event was a HUGE bonus to us! This will allow us to get our personalized thank you cards out promptly (as we are including a picture on the card).

    We have no hesitation at all in highly recommending Tom Shane Photography! Working with Tom was a GREAT experience!

    Tom took photographs of our wedding in February 2011 at the Ringling Museum of Art. It was a wonderful experience to meet him and work with him. He was so friendly and professional; I felt like I could smile for him tirelessly all day! He also made me feel so much at ease and was very comfortable to talk to. He created a variety of shots that had beautiful composition and clarity without looking purposely posed. I was so extremely pleased with his product and fair pricing that I would hire him again and recommend him to anyone needing a professional photographer.

    We found him on Craigs list, and as we didn't want the big huge edited wedding video, he was perfect and CHEAP. Plus, he was GREAT on email. So responsive and easy to work with. He showed up on time, we let him know when we were done, and it was easy peasy. We'll get the video next week so I'll know more then, but one of my best vendor experiences.

    We found Tom on Craig's List and had a very minimal budget to work with. From the first time that we spoke on the phone I knew that he was the right man for the job. He was easy to talk to and as excited as I was to do our wedding. Once we met him, he immediately became our friend and was in this adventure with us. He worked with us every step of the way to make sure that we were happy. Everyone at our wedding remarked about what great person he is. Tom has this awesome talent of getting our gets to open up and be themselves, so that they look completely natural, not posed. Even when it came time to pick up our pictures, he worked that out as well. Today, five years later, I called on him for a copy of our wedding movie and as always he answered the phone with his great personality and told me not to worry he has everything I need at his fingertips and I'll have what I need in no time. I can't thanks enough for being a part of our day and making it run so smooth.

    This photographer was simply amazing and worked in a very artistic, professional manner. I'm super excited to see the beauty he captured in the rest of our photos. Just from the preview, I know they will be beyond my expectations.
