He used his pre-wedding time to go back & forth between the Bride's and Groom's Rooms for photos. As the Mother of the Bride, Ken and I had a telephone conversation and he told me exactly what he needed ready to photograph as soon as he arrived on the wedding day. Having those items prepared helped him to stay on schedule and get all the pre-wedding pictures taken so that we started the wedding on time. Ken was very accommodating with special requests from both of the Mothers, because we wanted photos taken of our extended family groups. Ken had a prepared list of the extra photos that we wanted, and he methodically went down the list. The great thing was that we never felt rushed by Ken at any point during the entire day. Ken has a calm and friendly demeanor and it showed!! HIRE HIM... he'll do a great job for your wedding or special event too!

I unhesitatingly recommend Ken Thomas Photography! Ken's professionalism before, during, and after…read moreour May 2022 wedding has been exceptional. His attention to detail has been superb, and his talent is evident in our finished products. I'm thrilled with our photos, and I'm so thankful that I found such an accomplished professional for our special day. Way back in 2019, Ken met with me in person at his studio to discuss our expectations and to give me more information about his work. He impressed me as a delightful and extremely professional gentleman, and I liked him immediately. He also, during one of our visits, devised a detailed timeline for the events of our special day. That timeline proved invaluable in calming me on our wedding day and in keeping the festivities on schedule. All was nicely on track with all our wedding businesses, but due to the pandemic, we rescheduled our 2020 wedding. Ken was more than understanding and accommodating as I tried to come up with alternative dates. He was always a pleasure to speak with and even checked in with me from time to time to make sure we were still on schedule. On the day of the wedding, he arrived at our location in Marion County, South Carolina over an hour before the start time on our timeline, just to scope out the private home where our wedding was being held and to get an idea of photo locations. He was friendly and kind with everyone, both during photo sessions and at other times. He was fast and efficient in taking pictures, and his experience as a photographer showed as he quickly arranged us and our families in various great poses. My groom and I are both 60 years old, and he not only tried to make us feel more comfortable in posing - something that could have tried the patience of other folks - but also treated us just as he would a good-looking couple in their 20's. He made us feel special and was completely patient with his elderly bride and groom and our even-older guests. In addition to the posed photographs, he took great candid shots as well as many lovely photos of our outdoor ceremony. Since we didn't have a videographer, it was especially meaningful to me that I have photos of our vows and our walk down the aisle together. I received so many compliments from guests and family members, even before they saw the finished photos. Those in attendance noted that Ken was always available and busy taking photos throughout the evening and that he was unfailingly friendly. And then when they saw the nearly 500 photos - wow! I'm a technophobe, but Ken very patiently helped me with the online viewing of our pictures. He even emailed us a sneak-peek of around a hundred pictures less than a week after our wedding. The prints of all sizes are beautiful (despite the elderly subject matter!), and the lighting and color are perfect in each photo. When my two sons someday marry their girlfriends, I'd love to have Ken as the photographer. Even after all my wordy review, I can't think of a higher compliment than that!

I was a little nervous with a spirited, almost 3-year-old and 8-month-old who was nearing bedtime. It's been so hard for me to find time to do anything after work so I was already stressed trying to plan the family around this narrow window of time. We were also playing by ear with rain consistently in the forecast, so I was nervous about the conditions. Amber communicated with me via text consistently so I knew where her mind was at and miraculously, the sun came out and did so radiantly! It was like a moment of heaven and I wish I could have stayed forever. Clearly, this wasn't her first rodeo! We started promptly and Amber was very productive with our time, guiding us with cues for poses, working in the moment with our little tornadoes, and making the most of our family dynamic. Going home, my hubby told me how happy he was that I arranged this for our fam and it was really validating because it meant to me, that he also felt at ease and happy with how our shoot went. More surprisingly, Amber turned around our photos at lightning speed! Honestly couldn't decide which photos to pick from, so I'm glad that Amber included as many as she could! This goes a long way with me as a busy mom who appreciates the little details and nuances in the extras. Now I've got much-needed, BEAUTIFUL, updated photos to hang on my walls AND the most beautiful captured memories to cherish forever.

I came across yourweddingmagic.net (YWM) / Jason (DJ Breez), through a referral from my daughter's…read morewedding planner. She said that she had enjoyed working with him and his amazing team on a couple of past events, she said that he provided DJ service, photography, videography, photo booths, etc., basically that he was a one-stop-shop. Unfortunately, she told me all of that a little too late, I had already hired and paid for the DJ, and my daughter had already hired a videographer (a friend of my now son in law), however, he does not do photography only videography, so he referred me to someone else, of course there was no discount for hiring this recommended photographer, no bundle or package, just two separate vendors with two separate high price tags. So, I took a chance and called Breez, to get a quote for just his photography service, he was so easy to talk to that I ended up explaining my predicament to him. He was so understanding, so empathetic, and just so wonderful. His personality was astonishing, and his laugh was infectious. He did not come off as pushy at all, he came across as incredibly confident in his work. He sent me several samples of his photos and videos and took the time to tell me about the awesome stories behind some of them. I instantly knew that this was the guy that I wanted and needed to capture my daughter's wedding day. He quoted me for just his photography service, like I had asked him to. Then he went above and beyond and quoted me his price for doing BOTH the videography and the photography services, just so I could get a clearer picture of how much more quality work I could buy for a lot less money simply by using him for both services. After showing my kids his work and telling them his price, it was settled, we hired YWM. For months prior to the wedding, Jason called and texted to check on us and see how we were doing. He reassured me not only that the pictures and videos were going to be great but the whole day was, he could feel my stress and he cared enough to calm me. I have found a friend in him for life, and I am so grateful that God crossed our paths. On the morning of my daughter's wedding day, Breez and his team arrived promptly and professionally, and then they divided and conquered. Adnan, the videographer/producer/director, went to the venue where the guys were getting ready. Kiara, the photographer/coordinator, went to the Airbnb where the girls were getting ready. Breez was going back and forth between all the locations, including the church, doing boss things, snapping pictures, and ensuring that nothing was missed. I can't stress enough how amazing this team was/is, they reunited at the church seamlessly and worked together flawlessly, they worked behind the scenes with the church coordinator and the priest, to make sure they understood the church rules and they didn't break them. They kept in constant communication with myself and my kids from the beginning while we were getting ready, at the church, and at the reception, to make sure that they were delivering the kind of pictures we actually wanted. At the reception, you never even noticed them, they were everywhere, but they didn't interrupt the actual party. The kids, the wedding party, the guests, and even the venue staff members were having an amazing time and this team just captured the naturalness of it all. These three amazing humans, Jason, Adnan, and Kiara, never looked tired, frustrated, or put out, from the beginning of the morning to the bubble send off, they maintained their positive energies and their bright personalities stayed sharp, which kept everyone involved happy and smiling the entire day and night. I cannot thank you guys enough for capturing all the extra candid moments that are normally missed and for capturing fun, creative, and unique photos and videos along with the traditional ones that we will cherish forever. Thank you so much for everything.

DO NOT HIRE! Would give 0 stars if I could!!…read more We were married on September 20th and hired Jason for our wedding DJ, photography, and videography services. We paid our balance in full prior to the wedding, as requested. Unfortunately, the experience after the wedding has been extremely stressful and disappointing. Jason spoke a lot about his quick turnaround time before we booked, which was one of the reasons we chose him. However, that has not been our experience. In addition, we never saw the assistant that was included in our package, and the day-of coordinator did not ensure our requested photo list was shared with the photographer, which led to some frustrations on the wedding day as well. We are now six months after our wedding date and still do not have our uncut and edited wedding video, and several items took repeated follow-ups just to receive. Communication has been very inconsistent, and many of the timelines we were given for receiving our photos and video have not been met. Over the past several months we have tried to remain patient and understanding, but it has been very difficult not knowing when we will actually receive the rest of what we paid for. These are once-in-a-lifetime memories that couples trust their photographer and videographer to capture and deliver. At this point, we are simply hoping to receive the remaining deliverables in full and in the quality that was promised. I would strongly encourage couples considering booking to make sure clear delivery timelines and expectations are included in writing before signing a contract or better yet book with someone else. ETA: Just discovered that he played the wrong song for my girls to walk down the aisle to. I talked to him 2 days before the wedding to go over everything and put it in the app like he asked well ahead of time. The morning of our wedding he text me asking about what songs I wanted played for our entrances. He had the correct songs, wrong order so I told him the correct order. I shouldn't be having that type of conversation the morning of. He still managed to skip the song all together and played the same song for my husband and girls to walk down to. ETA: May 2026 - ended up having to take to small claims court. We won the case, but will probably never get our money from him unfortunately. Have been able to hire the videographer to edit the video for us, for a price of course, since Jason didn't pay him their agreed upon price.
