He took time to get to know me and my artistic vision for my project and developed his own creative ideas to compliment mine. I now am ready to promote my music release and build my artist presence. His studio was amazing and has everything one would need for most studio shoots including a dressing room, props, lighting, and even sets! His studio is also worth visiting just to look at his amazing photography portfolio on display. I highly recommend you check out his photography and hire him if you need any photography work.

Working for worldwide brands like Apple computers, Muscle Milk, and the Hass school of business, to name a few, so I know what quality work is. Just got it back this afternoon. . . I couldn't be more pleased. It came out better than I ever could have imagined. This guy is the real deal, so put any concerns in the rear view mirror and give him the job - you won't be disappointed.

I started coming here six years ago to augment the lab time and instruction I was getting in school. Their darkroom was my happy place for a long time and was fairly priced. What impressed me the most about their gorgeous space was that they encouraged clients to get their work off their screens and onto the walls. Literally, any time I had a question about anything related to photography or printing, Stuart, Ed, Constance, Chrysta, or Nathan would make the time for me and help me out or give me feedback. I enjoyed printing there and always left feeling inspired because they were so kind, knowledgeable, and professional. If you'd like to learn about photography, I highly recommend checking out their services, classes, and workshops. I wish I could give them more than five stars!

My artwork was mishandled and the finished product I had hired them for was poorly executed and unusable. I had to take it to a qualified business afterwards who confirmed they did not do a good job. When I raised the issue, the owner and staff were dismissive, refused a refund, and ignored multiple emails and calls. Their unprofessional behavior was bizarre and astonishing. They clearly aren't equipped to handle valuable artwork. Save yourself the headache and take your projects elsewhere.

If you're an agent looking for a top notch real estate photographer - residential or commercial - Thomas Sparks is your guy.

I used Sparks for my real estate photos, virtual staging and floor plans when my usual photographer…read morewasn't available to travel to the Sacramento area. I was recommended to Sparks by several Realtors who had been using their service for years. My experience with the company was nothing short of spectacular. Pricing was reasonable and the quality of the photos and virtual staging shots exceeded my expectations and those of my clients. I received many compliments from prospective buyers and one person in particular who ended up being the buyer for this home. She made an offer without even stepping foot inside and as she told me later the photos and especially the floor plan provided by Sparks helped her feel more confident about the property. She did of course visit the home in person after her offer was accepted. But as a Realtor who knows photos are everything to a successful listing, this was especially nice to hear how significant the photos and floor plan were in her overall decision to move ahead and write the offer.
