Had a home shoot with the lovely Tom yesterday. I love the fact he has a good eye for detail, isn’t shy about guiding you into a slightly better position etc. I’m Very pleased with how the shoot went and hopefully get to shoot again in the near future. He is very easy to talk to, proper gentleman :) looking forward to seeing what was created x

Wow... What was that?!.. Still can't believe how unusual our first shoot with Tom was!

He is such an artistic person and what amazed me the most during our shoot is his ability to see the beauty in the smallest details and shades. That really showed him as a very experienced photographer. He was very easy going and supported all my ideas but guided my posing and always suggested how to make the shots even cooler. Communicating with him was so easy and fun! We shot inside and outside, tried all different ideas and styles.

And as you said, Tom, it is only a beginning right?!

I highly recommend this photographer and look forward to our next project!

Had a great shoot with Tom.

Tom arrived on time and was friendly and imaginative.

Pre comms were great even though we went astray from what we had originally planned.

Tom has great ideas, gives good direction and I felt very comfortable and safe whilst working with him

Had such a fun time shooting with Tom! He has great pre and post-shoot communications, was considerate and respectful throughout the shoot, and kept an easygoing attitude which made me feel like I could contribute some ideas too. I especially appreciated how patient he was with me as I was still developing the character I was dressed up as, which meant I had to keep to certain styling and body language --thank you for bearing with me Tom 😅. Would recommend!

We had a short notice shoot last week. And I'm pretty sure that Tom asked me to leave a negative reference on purpose. I was thinking for the whole week, however leaving negative reference for Tom is simply impossible.

I sign up under all previous references and positive feedback.

Only other thing I would like to add:

I was pleasantly surprised by Toms choice of the outfit, willingness to experiment and step away from stereotypical fashion shoot tendencies. And that's something that doesn't come across that often these days, that is really special.

Had a really cool shoot with Tom at an Airbnb in Cardiff.

He has a great energy and a really creative eye for an image. Pre-shoot communications were also really good.

I had a lot of fun on our shoot and felt comfortable through out the whole time we worked together.

I'd definitely recommend him.

Had another shoot with Tom and it was my first beach shoot which I loved during the evening ☺️

He helped to pick out the outfit (believe me he knows what goes and what doesn't and he'll make sure you know that), as always great communication and camera skills.

I really like the way he shoots, he's great with seeing different poses, angles etc making a model look so much better, it's relaxing and working with him is a pleasure ☺️

Loving my images and it was hard for me to choose!

What's the next mood board? 👍🏼

Thanks again X!

A brilliant first shoot with the rather fabulous Tom.

Pre comms were spot on, we were back and forth and put a bit of planning in this one, mainly location wise, but the dedication and thought really boded well. After seeing what had been booked location wise I knew we'd come up with some cool stuff, however I didn't know until in the flow of things during shoot just how good of team we made in terms of creativity, angles, props, composition AND Toms fab camera skills!! Should of heard me...''oh look at the shallow depth of field....ahh I love the colours popping here! ..Nailed it!''

It's a shame really that we don't live closer, creativity levels were high and when you connect with someone who shares similar tastes in art and weirdness, there's not limit to what you can create.

Tom also made terrific company, we did not run out of things to say! A very interesting chap, caring and polite. Overall, a super sharp shooter :)

Would absolutely recommend to all!

Many thanks,

Now this is a photographer that you need!

First of all Tom is an amazing person and his passion for his work is amazing. He really has it all figured out when it comes to different styles and how he sees his models, mood/idea boards, space etc. He gives great direction and the images come out brilliant!

After you'll work with T you'll understand what a professional photographer is.

I feel so comfortable working with him and he's a great laugh too. So kind and understanding.

He's the type of photographer I'd go back to for many many other different future shoots.

If you want amazing quality and well planned out images, message Tom!

Had a shoot with Tom in an Airbnb in Cardiff.

Tom is really funny and we had a laugh! Felt more like hanging out with a friend.

I love his style of photography and he managed to make good use of a very small space.

I hope we get to work together again sometime 😊😊

What can I say! Tom was a breath of fresh air to shoot with. Communications beforehand were spot-on, and we had such a good laugh and chat in between sets, all of which the images came out superbly well. Tom is super-skilled behind the camera and this clearly shows in his portfolio. Totally professional throughout with some hilarious stories in between. Great entertainment, amazing photographer, unique creative mind, highly recommended by me and I would not hesitate to work with Tom again.

Thanks a lot Tom and I hope to work with you again real soon!

Tom answered a casting call that I had put up last minute for last weekend and I knew from his messages that I was expecting someone different. He didn't disappoint. He showed up raring to go, and he's always on the look out for something different and inspirational. He knows what he wants to get out of a shot and makes sure that happens. He's also bloody funny and someone who doesn't mind a bit of banter. I'm looking forward to our next shoot and hopefully many more to come!

Miss mae_

where to start, I first worked with tom whilst on my cardiff tour he is awesome great personality and his expectations are high which is great as you get used to working with a certain kind and tom brings you out of that. he is very professional and the outfits he choses matches perfectly to the style and ideas he has. he is bubbly fun and great to chat to and work with. his pre comms were fantastic regularly keeping me updated and this is of course highly appreciated.

I would highly recommend him to everyone and do hope we get to work together again soon he is a very funny guy with a fantastic sense of humour and personality so when he messages you asking to bring certain things!! bring them :)

thanks so much

Tom is an amazing photographer who wants to get the best out of himself and the model. Before the shoot, we were in constant contact, bouncing ideas of one another to ensure we knew exactly what the plan was. We arrived at a phenomenal site and spent most of the evening shooting a combination of previously discussed themes that came out brilliantly and I am very excited to see, once edited!! The cherry on the cake and the reason I would recommend him for any model is that he constantly asks for feedback, despite being an experienced photographer. His dedication to the job is amazing and any model would be lucky to shoot with him

Just had 3rd great shoot with Tom!

Very professional and creative photographer! Direct model very well and has loads of ideas! I can’t wait to see edits now!

Highly recommended

Had a fab shoot with Tom recently. I wasn't too sure what to expect as we had not met beforehand but any nerves I had soon disappeared. Tom is a fantastic photographer and all round creative guy, as well as being a really chilled out and fun person to work with. He gave lots of direction and feedback throughout as well, I would 100% recommend him!

Itzel

Tom is a great photographer to work with. I can totally say he knows what he's doing very well, he takes it easy.

Precomms we're good, he sent me examples and ideas, kept me informed about his timing and showed up in good time.

He's got a background in arts, this shows in the shoots immediately.

He has a great vibe and cheerful attitude. He allows a good flow,knows how to connect and likes the model to be free in their own style however he is quite focused. Also the feedback throughout the shooting was very helpful to achieve what he wanted.

The session flew by and before I knew it we had achieved a few changes and amazing pictures! I'd definitely recommend working with him.

He's nice to chat to as well, he's a travelled dude.

Thank you Tom, I'd be up for working again with you if you ever wish!

Best,

Itzel

Awhhh this guy! Such a fun, spirited, chilled and adventurous person! Full of so many unique ideas! And such a perfectionist! Which you can see by his work. Met for the first time, he made me so comfortable and was funny kind and gave amazing direction! He is the most adventurous photographer I’ve been lucky enough to work with. And just seeing the unedited images, you can see how incredible he is as an artist/Photographer. And the edits after his magic touch will be unreal! I can’t wait to see them! And can’t wait to be working with him again and again! Honestly didn’t know what to expect as it was his first time on this location, didn’t know my face other than seeing pictures or what I’d be wearing! Neither of us expected such results! Only up from here! Absolutely amazing day, with an awesome person, who is incredibly talented! I 1000% recommend this talented and lovely guy! Thanks for working with me Tom!
