She was super friendly and laid back and was a lovely presence to have around us on our wedding day. We hired her because the quality of her photos stood out to me among all of the portfolios I looked at and I was so happy to feel the same way about the photos she took for us. Her shots were so flattering and sophisticated and had an artistic element that I have no doubt will make them timeless. I could not recommend her more highly!

If you don't read anything else- here you go- BOOK TOM WALL!!…read more When looking for and choosing you wedding photographer, it can be very intimidating and stressful! This is the person who will capture your happily ever after- At the end of it all, those photographs are what you look back on for the rest of your lives! From the very first meeting with Tom Wall, we knew we HAD to hire him! His kind, easy-going personality put me and my husband at ease and made us feel like old friend, fast! He was thorough and organized, as well as obviously talented. His photo gallery and work spoke for itself online, but in person sealed the deal for us. He was so professional and truly seemed to "get us!" He took out all the stress and put us at ease immediately. We truly felt like we found a friend in Tom, which made our day and photos completely relaxed and genuine. My husband and I can be quite shy- especially my husband. He never really like photos of himself, but WOW did Tom blow us away! He was able to capture exactly who we are as a couple because we were so comfortable with him and his team from the start! If we were to do it all over again, we wouldn't change thing! Tom and his team were simply the best and have given us absolutely stunning photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives! In short, any photographer can take pictures- but it takes someone special to capture moments! Tom, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you! Tom really gets it! This is the biggest day of your life and he genuinely wants it to be perfect for you both! We knew we wanted a first look, but also wanted rooftop after-party pictures. Tom was super respectful of our budget and squeaked out every minute he could with us and captured every moment perfectly. He brings a second photographer, who he has worked with for al one time. They are a flawless team who had us laughing the whole day! They were able to capture all different angles, groups, and moments because there were two of them. When toying with the idea of a wedding planner, Tom quickly assured us that his precise timeline would prevent us from needing one and boy was he right! Not only was he impeccable with timelines on our big day, but he never made us feel rushed. We even had some wiggle room on the big day because he had created such a perfect schedule! He would write back within hours, always making us feel like his only Bride and Groom! We really mean that!! I don't know how he did it! Tom not only answered any photography questions we may have had, but also helped us organize all parts of our day in a way that matched exactly what we wanted. He was my (other) right-hand man! Our day was simply perfect, down to every detail and a huge part of that was Tom's attention to detail, guidance, and precision. Do yourself a favor, reach out to Tom. Look at his work, talk with him, and if you can, meet in person! Get to know him, let him get to know you! You will clearly see, that this is a passion for him and you a people first-not clients. Then-book him! Trust us, you won't regret it! Thank you, Tom for everything! -Samantha & Tom Mundy

I'm here to pass along the highest possible recommendation for Tom Wall Photography. Tom and the…read moreentire TWP team are completely dialed in and great to work with. They did an incredible job at our wedding, and I strongly encourage you to consider reaching out to discuss your next event with him. Choosing a photographer for a meaningful event is a big choice, but my wife and I felt comfortable with Tom from the very first conversation we had with him. He and his team have a great eye for capturing all the most important moments in interesting and stunning ways. They also have the technical skill to produce really high quality shots, and their online delivery system makes it super easy to download your photos, share with friends & family, or order prints. On top of all that, Tom is a really nice guy with a great demeanor to have around during big moments. Your wedding photographer is going to be right there with you throughout the day, and I think it's extremely useful and important to have someone who's experienced and professional but also down to earth, someone who's easy to talk to, someone who's light-hearted and funny when that's called for - but who can also be serious and help keep things on track and running smoothly when you're dealing with the unexpected twists and turns of a wedding day, and someone who seems to truly care about his clients and who puts in the extra effort to capture the personalities and interests of the couples he works with. Tom is all of those things, and you'll appreciate it both during your event and when you're seeing the final product. There are lots of choices for photographers out there and plenty of people you can hire to take great pictures. Tom Wall Photography will get you get you great photos as well, but he's also a fantastic person to work with and will increase your chances of getting some of those "wow" shots that you'll cherish forever. Take a look at his work online, give him a call or send him an email and get to know him a little bit, you will not regret it. -Andy & Casey Meyer

We had spoken to mark prior, provided a timeline of events, a list of songs that guests had requested along with songs we'd like to hear well in advance just for him to play almost none of them. The cocktail hour was a mess, we couldn't hear any of the music with his tiny speaker and when we made our speech, and re read our vows the microphone he provided didn't even work and couldn't turn up the sound. We had to yell instead. So embarrassing. There were huge pauses between everything and the listing of first dance and parent dances had the amount of time listed to play it just for my husband and I to awkwardly stand in front of everyone waiting for our first dance song to start. He then called parents dances incorrectly just for my mother and I to again, awkwardly stand there for multiple minutes waiting for the song to start just to tell me the song "wasn't downloaded" and called me to his table to tell me this. Then when it did start to play, the timing was all wrong and I kept having to tell him to stop a song or yell to him. The only guest requested songs (from the rsvp) that were played were ones guests had to go up again and ask for. He also announced to "make sure the bride liked the song" before requesting which makes me look like the bad guy. I literally provided a list of do not play and truly made it as simple as possible just to be ignored. It was so unprofessional and made me so sad that my husband and I got to finally celebrate our wedding after 3 postponements due to COVID just for us to get a second rate DJ who was incredibly unprofessional and couldn't even do the simple task of playing songs we had asked for well in advance including guest requests.

Her sincerity, tranquility, and level of organization really helped to ease away any wedding planning anxiety. Over the course of a year, we had several check-ins with her via video chat which were really helpful and grounding. How she puts together a wedding ceremony was also so impressive and seamlessly blended both my and my wife's responses to her questions. Her questionnaire was so thoughtful and deep and it allowed us to reflect on aspects of our lives, families, friends, values, and goals. She took our responses and wove an incredible narrative about us as a couple and we truly could not have asked for anything else. A number of guests approached us after the wedding ceremony and told us "That was the best wedding officiant I've ever seen!" We couldn't agree more. From start of finish, Alice was there for us if we had any questions about the process. She is such a professional, but she is also just a lovely, lovely person. We will never forget our time working with her, and we will never be able to thank her enough for marrying us. We love her and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant!
