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.

Attached shows lack of communication days before the wedding Attached is also my day of coordinators email. EMAIL I sent him below: I wanted to reach out regarding several issues we experienced with your services at our wedding on 10/11. Unfortunately, the performance did not meet expectations or the agreed-upon standards, and I wanted to share the specific concerns for your awareness and resolution. Throughout the evening, the DJ repeatedly approached me -- the bride -- with questions and complaints, interrupting my time with family and guests. My coordinator was present and attempting to handle all communication, yet he continued to come to me directly instead of working through her as planned. When we were introduced as husband and wife, the DJ immediately began playing our first dance song without any pause or announcement, leaving no time for guests to be seated or for us to prepare. We had to begin dancing awkwardly right upon entry. During our dance, despite clear instructions in the app to "fade when necessary." I had to personally signal him to fade the song -- during my own first dance. The same issue occurred during the father-daughter AND mother-son dances. He announced the wrong sequence (calling for a "couple's dance" instead of the father-daughter dance) and again required direction from me to fade out the songs at appropriate times. ME THE BRIDE. Additionally, there were significant issues during cocktail hour. The DJ failed to make any announcements or guide guests, resulting in confusion as people began visiting the food truck while we were still taking photos. He also did not play background music consistently, and one of my bridesmaids had to ask him to start playing music while guests were eating. Overall, there was a complete lack of MC presence, coordination, and leadership throughout the evening. It felt as though he had never worked a wedding before, which unfortunately disrupted the flow of our event and created unnecessary stress. I'm bringing these concerns to your attention in hopes of finding a fair resolution. Please let me know how you'd like to proceed. Also attached is my wedding coordinators email that I sent to you in a text which you probably did not read because you were driving.
