Got no big red flags from Ken leading up to my wedding. Response time was great, his contract wasn't weird, he accepted all forms of payment and he had good reviews across the boar...
d. More specifically, I went with him for his reasonable fees and he spent more time on the initial call than any other photographer. He was friendly and easy-going but professional. That didn't change the day of the wedding; I appreciated his calmness as a nervous bride! Both the engagement and wedding pictures were beautiful. Would hire again.
Ken is great at budgeting his time. After a wedding planning session, Ken created a customized timeline with our daughter & new son-in-law. He used his pre-wedding time to go bac...
k & 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!
We love Ken so much! He did an amazing job at his job and going the extra mile outside of his job roles to make our wedding amazing! He also did our engagement photos! I absolutely...
recommend booking him for both! He is so easy to communicate anything with and goes out of his way to reach out throughout the wedding planning process!
Ken was so much fun to work with! My husband and I loved having him and Fred there with us on our wedding day!!!
As a wedding videographer myself, I was very picky about the photographer we hired for our wedding. I was lucky enough to work with Ken at another wedding and saw his work. He is t...
he most friendly wedding professional I’ve met so far and his eye for photography is second to none. My wife and I are so happy with the pictures, and I look forward to working with Ken in the future.
Where do I even start?! Ken Thomas Photography/Ken Thomas is the best photographer I have ever had the pleasure of working with. From the moment we scheduled our engagement photo ...
shoot with him and had our first call, I felt like I had known him for years. He's very personable and easy to work with. He made our engagement shoot so much fun!! Once we got our photos back, I was in awe! I LOVED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM! It was so hard to choose!! He will make all your wildest photo dreams and expectations come TRUE!! I CAN'T RECOMMEND HIM ENOUGH! Thank you Ken! Can't wait for you to do our wedding in February! :)
My husband and I are so happy we chose Ken Thomas as our engagement and wedding photographer! He perfectly captured our personalities as a couple as well as all of the special mome...
nts on our wedding day. Ken was extremely knowledgable, professional and personable — even our guests were stopping us to compliment him throughout our big day. Ken was always reachable for any question, comments or concerns, and definitely put us as ease leading up to the wedding. We are thrilled with how all of our photos turned out, and we truly cannot recommend Ken highly enough!

ur special day and couldn't be happier with them! Thank you Ken!
I can’t say enough good things about Ken! He is professional and personable at the same time. Our engagement and wedding pictures were beyond amazing and he captured every moment...
, feeling, and emotion on film perfectly. I cry fresh tears of joy each time I look at them, because it feels like I am reliving the joy of the day. He as a master at his craft but also very reasonably priced. I have recommended him to everyone I know and will be using him for any of our upcoming family photo needs as well.
Ken is the best! He is amazing at what he does, fun, creative, and makes you look natural! Most reasonable prices around and great quality.
Words can’t express how wonderful Ken Thomas is. He captured our special day beautifully and I couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out. Ken is incredibly talented at wha...

Ken Thomas was by far the best wedding photographer for my daughter’s wedding! He was awesome to work with from the time we made the first call. If you are looking for a photograph...
er...look no further Ken Thomas is who you need!! I would recommend him over & over!! Thank You Ken for such a great job!!
Hands down the best photographer ever. Made us so comfortable and the photos came out stunning! He went above and beyond. He made me feel so gorgeous and totally interpreted my hus...
bands and I’s relationship. Will be 100% hiring for maternity photos when the time comes! Thank you so much Ken!
We cannot express enough how grateful we are to Ken Thomas Photography for everything that they did to make our wedding picture perfect. Right from the initial meeting with Ken, we...
felt very comfortable with him and his artistic vision. During the pre-planning meeting he was very helpful and made us think of scenarios and considerations that we would have never thought of. He was more insightful than a professional wedding planner. By being proactive, we were able to plan out all of the shots that would help capture our memories of a lifetime.
The day of the nuptials, Ken and his associate Fred, were literal Rock Stars. They were able to get all of the shots we requested plus a whole lot more that we never would have thought to ask for. All of our guests were highly impressed with their professionalism and their ability to get so many shots that captured all of the amazing moments of the day. At one point during the day when we were somewhat behind schedule due to hair and make-up, Ken was the calming force that made us feel that no matter what, it was going to be a special day.
Getting the sneak preview of our wedding photography was absolutely the best! It was almost as fabulous as the wedding day itself. It was great to relive all of the warm and fuzzy feelings from our big day, and they arrived on time as promised. They were the perfect appetizer to hold us over until we were able to get the full lot. It’s three months out now and we still enjoy looking through all of the awe-inspiring photography. Now that we have all of them back, we are wondering how we can redecorate the house to find a place to put all of the memorable moments captured by Ken Thomas Photography.
Amazing photographer with amazing work! Makes you feel very comfortable and really captures your style. Our engagement photos are perfect. Thank you, Ken!
Working with Ken was so easy - from the first phone call to getting our pictures! He helped pull together a great timeline for pictures the afternoon of our wedding and found the p...
erfect spots for pictures at the park. Our pictures look fantastic, and I really appreciate how he documented the essence of the day and captured moments that I hadn't seen. I would highly recommend him!
I cannot say enough good things about Ken Thomas and his team. We booked Ken right after we got engaged and he was such a great person to work with from start to finish. He helped ...
us describe our dream for our day and made our dreams come to reality on our big day! Ken met with us before the wedding to develop a timeline and always kept open communication for anything we may need! Ken and his second shooter showed up early, stayed late, and managed to get every detail and event in between. Seriously, we were so lucky to have him as a vendor and looking back at our pictures - I am SO HAPPY we chose Ken Thomas Photography!!
We made the absolute best decision to have Ken Thomas capture our wedding day. He was so amazing and the pictures were out of this world. We seriously could not have asked for a be...
tter photographer. I would absolutely recommend him to everyone who is looking for a photographer. He is super easy to work with (even while living all the way out in Hawaii and coming back to NC to have the wedding), his team is awesome, and his work is amazing. Please look no further for your photographer, he is the best.
I got married this past weekend - September 28, 2019. Ken was absolutely amazing. He knows how to get the perfect pictures and helped ease my mind with keeping everything on sche...
dule. I would 100% recommend him. He will help make your wedding day dreams come true. Thank you so much Ken!
Ken Thomas Photography is amazing!!! Ken and Fred were able to capture so many special moments throughout our wedding day that we will forever be able to look back on and cherish. ...
We were given sneak peaks fairly quickly and received all of our pictures a few days ago and they are all absolutely beautiful. We are extremely thankful to have had Ken and Fred working with us and will be forever grateful!
I can't stop looking at my amazing photos. And I rarely like any picture taken of me, usually I find a million different things wrong with any picture of me. I have never had so m...
any picture that I not only like but absolutely love and can't seem to find a single thing wrong and can't find anything to pick at!
After having surgery due to cancer my number one concern was the scars on my chest from the drain tubes showing in my wedding pictures. I have been dreading the day I had to do my bridal pictures and honestly my biggest worry was seeing those scars in my photos for the rest of my life. I don't know if I ever shared my concerned about that or not, but after looking closer at my pictures it looks like Ken was able to edit them right out. I had tears in my eyes when I was looking at them as I knew that my bridal photos do not have those scars in them and I do not have to be self conscious about it when sharing these beautiful pictures with others.
The first time we met, Ken asked what I liked about his work, and at that time I didn't really have a good answer, I just like his pictures. It looked liked he had an eye for detail and his style of photography matched my vision for my wedding. Now I have a better answer. Ken take time to look from his clients eyes. He understand what the individual wants even when they don't know exactly how to express to him what they want. His attention to detail is like no other! It's clear that he doesn't just take pictures to make a living, he takes pictures because it's his passion and that passion clearly shows! I had a good feeling about choosing Ken as our photographer but never in a million years did I ever imagine that I would be this amazed and pleased with the outcome, and don't take that in the wrong way please I'm just extremely picky. I would recommend Ken to anyone without hesitating for a second! Ken has made my biggest worry about one of the most important days in my life completely disappear!
Again, a million thanks!
Ken was the best. He was the most professional and easiest vendor we worked with for our wedding. He met with us to understand what we were looking for at our wedding. He then d...

Ken is the best photographer! After doing a lot of research online for our wedding photographer, we found Ken. We decided to drive from Raleigh to Charlotte to have a meet to make ...
sure he would be the right photographer for us on our very special day. Ken is very passionate about his work, he is very flexible and main focus is bride/groom. He is very quick to reply on emails and can do pretty much anything you ask of him. We would definitely recommend him to everyone, hes worth it and pictures turned out amazing!!
Ken is very professional and did an awesome job on our wedding! What impressed us the most is his vast experience and attention to detail. He always has great suggestions on what w...
ill make a great photo. I would definitely recommend him. Thanks again Ken!
Ken is a true professional. We were able to work with Ken for 6 months before our wedding and we could tell it was important and not just a job for him. We met several times in per...
son and numerous phone calls and emails to make sure we not only had our plans straight but he wanted to make sure we got what we wanted.
At the wedding he and his assistant even brought along photos of the ideas that we wanted so they could try to figure out how to capture the images. They were very successful in doing so!
Ken did a great job at our wedding and I honestly don’t think we could have found a better photographer.
Ken is very professional. I highly recommend using Ken for any event you need a photographer for. He is very patient with you and works with you to make all of your photos beautifu...

Ken was absolutely AMAZING!! Talk about a guy who makes you feel like you've known him for years!! He worked around my crazy schedule multiple times, he drove all the way down to F...
lorida for our wedding! The pictures where magazine worthy and extremely affordable too! I felt like Ken gave his all for our wedding! Not only did he do our engagement photos, he did rehearsal dinner, and our WEDDING!!! By the end of this he was sooooo much more than just a photographer who did our photos he became a great friend. His personality is awesome and we all vibe really well. If I had it all to do over again i wouldn't change a thing!!! We had such little time for pictures yet Ken made sure he didn't stop until we got them all. Weddings never go exactly how you plan but Ken never missed a beat! Amazing guy! Ken, I can't ever thank you enough for what an amazing job you did for us and what a trooper you were through it all!!! THANK YOU so MUCH from the bottoms of our hearts!!!!
Ken Thomas is amazing! He took the time to get to know me and my husband to make sure he captured all the photos we wanted on our wedding day. He went above and beyond and asked if...
there was anything he could do for us to help with the wedding. The photos he takes are gorgeous. At the end of the day, you have your memories and the pictures so do not pass Ken up!
Stop looking and just hire this man! You won't regret it. He had us laughing all the way through our engagement session and our wedding day! AND his images are amazing - the only w...
orry you'll have is selecting which images to print! Our wedding images captured the joy and love of the day and friends who were unable to come to the wedding viewed the gallery and said they felt they were there! He was a blast to work with and was a treasured guest at our wedding! I have no idea how he took all those pictures but they couldn't have been more beautiful!!
So glad we went with Ken Thomas, you will not be disappointed!!!!
Ken Thomas is such a wonderful photographer. I hired him as our wedding photographer after emailing about 40 photographers near my venue. As all of my vendors know, I am a bit OC...
D. But photography is so very important. What I was looking for was an affordable photographer for all of my needs (engagement, bridal and wedding – all at varying locations across NC), portraits and a wedding book. Ken offers a package that covers all of these needs. Most of the other photographers in the Asheville, Charlotte and Greenville SC area started their packages at excessive prices and did not include any of the extras such as portraits or a wedding book. Ken’s services and price intrigued me so I looked over his work on his website and was just blown away. I decided that I wanted pictures like that! So I hired Ken. In March 2015 we had our engagement session and had so much fun shooting our pictures. Ken is very easy going and laid back. He is very accommodating and normally works extra time on the shoots just to make sure he gets the right shoot. My bridal session was equally as fun. I was able to get the picture of a lifetime when he shot my pictures in front of the Old Well at UNC. Ken has a fantastic photographer’s eye and a wealth of creativity. You can tell he truly enjoys his job. I am looking forward to seeing the pictures of our wedding and especially our wedding book!!!
Ken was very accommodating working with my parents since my husband and I are OCONUS Marines. My parents loved that he sat down with them one-on-one to go over how he works, showed...
them his portfolio, and made them comfortable. Which is exactly what he did with me when I got to meet with him. He is very kind and easy to work with and gives direction (for those of us that are camera shy or just don't know have that natural ability to know how to pose or even just what to do). He was very professional and worked well with the guests. My family and the in-laws said he worked well with everyone and even being a solo photographer, he took great photos and captured moments that my husband and I missed since quite honestly, the wedding was a blur.
My mom found Ken Thomas by chance. She saw his sign by the side of the road. Ken not only photographed by wedding, but our engagement pictures, wedding portraits, the rehearsal a...
nd rehearsal dinner. He was very easy going, but professional. He took all my "wants" and made them possible. He made suggestions about certain things that turned out to be the right thing to do. He did not push anything on us. He was very easy to reach during the months of planning, always getting back to me quickly to answer questions.The quality of his pictures are wonderful. Everyone that saw my pictures were in awe of their beauty and I give Ken the credit for that.
Ken is great to work with. He has so many ideas for pictures that I would never have thought of. He takes the time to get to know the bride and groom and what we like and want too....
My bridal portraits were absolutely beautiful. I get my wedding pictures in just a few short weeks. I can't wait to see them.
