TJ was absolutely fantastic to work with and we’re so glad we hired him for our wedding! We booked a one hour photo shoot outdoors before the event to have just pictures of us as a couple. TJ has such a great eye and picked out wonderful spots for us with such artful framing and lighting. He was also really great at directing us and posing us to create some really gorgeous shots. We also hired him for an additional 2 hours to take candid shots of the event and he did a wonderful job of capturing beautiful moments with our guests. He even stayed late to capture additional shots for us! He was super responsive and easy to work with and helped us capture such gorgeous images of our special day. He also had a very quick turnaround time, and within a week sent us a link with digital copies of all our photos, making it easy to download and share with our friends and family. If you are looking for a photographer, definitely hire TJ! He will not just take photos, but capture works of art for you and your loved ones to admire.

Tj & his professionalism was spectacular. He was punctual with his messages and responsiveness, had a great attitude towards what I wanted todo for my engagement ideas and placement plus location. Super friendly & easy to talk with. Great energy. Worked very well on the fly seeing as I was traveling from far and so was he. Was there early on time weather was terrible and he worked around that “ it was snowing” and captured moments that will last a life time 10/10 would recommend. We will be seeing him in a the future! Cheers!

TJ was the perfect photographer for our engagement photos!! He made the entire experience very comfortable and fun. He guided us through the entire process very professionally, was responsive in planning out the photo shoot, and sent us the final results of the photos in a timely manner. We are so happy with the final turn out and recommend him to any couples needing to have their photos taken.

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    My base price is for a 45 minute session, which is usually enough for most jobs except weddings. I also require a 20% deposit to book and reserve a session and date. This is non-refundable, but will be used as credit toward your invoice. I have a discounted package if you book both your engagement photos and wedding day with me. Any jobs that require me to travel outside of my typical area is eligible for a discounted travel package and should be inquired about through my Instagram.

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    If you are looking into working with me, you get a free 20 minute consultation to discuss your vision and ask any questions you may have about the process.
