Meet Tom

A little bit about me:

I am a family man and I live in Hardwick, Cambridge with my lovely wife Beth and my son Toby. We moved from the seaside town of Deal in Kent to Cambridge while Beth trains to be a vicar in the Church of England.

Family, friends and faith mean everything to us! We also have the pleasure of working alongside each other with wedding photography after having worked for years together at our local church.

"We couldn't be happier with Tom and would highly recommend him: he was able to capture the magic of our wedding" - Rachel & Luis, Solton Manor

My approach

My heart is for you to enjoy your wedding day with all your lovely friends and family while I catch it on camera. My style is natural and the couples that I work with are deeply in love with each other. We value celebrating true love and I help release you to be yourselves!

For me, weddings are about two people who love each other so much that they want to commit their lives to one another and celebrate it. I love telling each wedding story by capturing the day as it unfolds naturally, crafting the images into bright, beautiful memories that authentically show your wonderful wedding day.

"Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us the most beautiful moments and memories of our best day that we will cherish forever" - Stacey & Jamie

Perfect planning is key, and with each wedding couple, I always create an organised and relaxed timing plan that enables your day to flow seamlessly. This helps me capture the memories of the day authentically, not asking everybody to “look at the camera” or “stop enjoying yourselves and move there”.

"The photographs are so natural and are everything we wanted! We are so glad we chose to use you and are very happy with the photos, we will be recommending you to everyone" - Sian & Tom
 

I love to fit in with your loved ones and photograph their personalities naturally. My couples enjoy a bit of time away from the crowd for a memorable couple shoot where I give gentle, flattering prompts rather than intricate, awkward poses where you don’t feel like the real you. I’m gentle, relaxed and friendly, yet also organised, creative and fun to be with (so my son says).

I have over 10 years of experience being a photographer.

I studied photography at the University of the Creative Arts, was an apprentice on The Photographer Academy, and did Fashion Photography for a few years too!

"Our photographs are stunning and we are so glad that we purchased wedding albums as they provide perfect reminders of our wonderful wedding day" - Michael & Emma
 

Fun facts about me...

I have a few hobbies (surfing/golf/weight lifting/probably more!)

I've donated 10% of my profits to the charity "Compassion" sponsoring two children living in poverty in Burkina Faso since 2015.

I'm a TV fan (Malcolm in the Middle/US Office/Disney)

I LOVE food (#vegan/Tipsy Vegan in Cambridge/Beth's cooking)

I love the confetti part of the wedding, the couple shoot, and when everybody is laughing and having a great time.

"More tears were shed looking at these photographs than on the day. I really couldn't be more grateful. 100000/10 would recommend, I really couldn't be more happy!"
