Four our engagement session she had great ideas for where and how to shoot our photos. Heather is so full of energy and an amazing person to be around, she made the engagement session so much fun. There aren't enough words to express how amazing her and her son Braeden were on our wedding day. On our wedding day, Heather sat down with me to schedule out the day and wanted to make sure she got any photos I specifically wanted. Heather also coordinated with our DJ and they worked so well together. Heather really makes the bride feel like she has her back and is there for her, but also making sure things run as smooth as possible. Heather's son Braeden was our second photographer and he is such a wonderful and talented young man. He didn't hesitate to get photos and video of the ceremony and reception. Heather and Braeden felt like family on our wedding day even though they were there to capture it. Both engagement and wedding photos came out amazing and we could not be happier with our experiences and photos. We highly recommend Heather and Braeden for any and every event you want to capture. We will be using Heather and Braeden to photograph all of our life moments.

The photos are beautiful. Maybe a little over edited but beautiful nonetheless. The issue is cost…read more Get pricing for absolutely everything and ask questions before you book. Of all the professional photos that I have had taken in the past 10 years, never have I not been given the digitals (not expecting them to be free). None of my friends or family have ever not been given digitals either. Trust me, I asked all of them because I felt like I had been taken advantage of. It's 2022 people. Everyone likes to post high res photos to social media and make their own albums. No one wants to post a pixelated image with a giant logo on it. Posting high quality photos or making your own album will not be an option for you if have photos taken here... unless you pay thousands of dollars (not joking) and maybe they will throw in the digitals (what I was told). If you are looking to pay an arm and a leg for paper copies only, this is the place. Also you will have to go back to the studio twice (once to review and another to pick up the photos). The photos are beautiful, and clearly the photographer is talented. IMO a review of their business model and cost of doing business should be a priority for them if they are looking to retain customers.

During the session to view the images you are fully informed of the prices not to mention you are given their undivided attention to create just what you want for your images, your individual taste and home! I have always left with a printed invoice of exactly what I ordered. When you go to IP you do not have to worry about having pictures like everyone else! IP goes above and beyond to satisfy each client! I have called or emailed Karen ideas I have had for my daughters birthday shoot and she exceeded all my wildest dreams! Buddy recently framed a series for us that impressed my husband so much he changed where we were going to put it because he wanted it to be a focal point in our home! I'm blessed beyond measure to have such a wonderful group of people capturing memories for a lifetime!

Ken is great at budgeting his time. After a wedding planning session, Ken created a customized…read moretimeline with our daughter & new son-in-law. 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!
