Simply incredible

They say to always invest in a great wedding photographer because the day is a blur, and wow are we glad we hired T.J. As we sit here looking through the photos from our wedding a few weeks ago, we're absolutely blown away! Every perfect moment, perfectly captured. The experience with T.J. and his second shooter was awesome too. He was very easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable during both engagement and wedding photos. He seemed to always be in the perfect spot, and now we have so many amazing memories that we'll be able to cherish forever. We cannot thank you enough T.J. Amazing!!

Amazing photographer!

TJ’s work speaks for itself - he is an incredibly talented photographer. My husband and I were initially drawn to him because of the way he is able to capture emotions and add a unique, artistic touch to his photos. We were equally impressed by the way he made us feel so comfortable, his flexibility and his creativity from our engagement shoot to our wedding day. We had a big wedding day - with three venues - one where we got ready, one for the first ceremony and another for the second ceremony and reception. We also had three outfits for the day and wanted photographs in all of them. TJ never missed a beat. He and his assistants were there to photograph every moment, whether it was getting ready, our first look, moments throughout the ceremonies, reception and everything in between. Despite the many moving pieces and tight timeline, TJ always had a smile on his face and was ready for anything. Our second ceremony ran late and he still managed to sneak in some gorgeous sunset photos. He even had us hop into his car to drive to an area of the winery that we had said we wanted photos in right before our reception. His ability to shuffle around photo opportunities to adapt to unexpected changes in our timeline was so helpful and let us focus on being in the moment and not thinking about what happened with our planned photos sets. We got all of the photos we could have ever wanted (and more). TJ was one of the highlights of our wedding and we will forever remember our wedding day through his amazing work.

Amazing Person and Photographer

We never thought we would have a chance to work with TJ! He was a dream photographer. He was with us the whole process and his work was really one of a kind. He caught moments that we did not even notice we had. He truly cares and has a talent that stands out against the rest.

I enjoy working with T.J. and I always look forward to our weddings together. I'm in awe of the images he's able capture. Every couple has their own special moment which T.J. seems to capture beautifully. He has a very talented "eye" for balance, light, and natural beauty. His work is REAL and clean, and seems to be a true representation of the subjects on the other side of his lens. I was thrilled to learn that after knowing him for years personally he was moving back into the Napa Valley to grace us with his talent! The past 3 years have FLOWN by and it's been a true blessing to work with him as a fellow wedding professional.
