We hired Peter for our wedding earlier this year, and it was one of the best decisions we made for the whole wedding! He is an absolutely phenomenal photographer, and the photos we...
received are stunning! Peter was incredibly professional from start to finish. His turn around time for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos was very quick, which was wonderful. His background in photography definitely shows in the quality of the photos he takes. We wanted a second photographer for our wedding, and Peter brought his colleague Chris. Peter and Chris are both very charismatic and got along great with our whole wedding party and the guests. They were so fun to work with, and our photos turned out amazingly well! Take a look at Peter's portfolio, and his talent will speak for itself. I couldn't recommend Peter more highly!
We are so glad we chose Peter as our wedding photographer! We absolutely love our photos- they truly captured the details and emotions of the day in the most beautiful way! He was ...
also a much-needed calm presence in the midst of chaos taking family photos. Would absolutely recommend Peter as wedding photographer!
We love our wedding photos!!! Our photographer was one of the most important parts of our wedding for me because the pictures are one of the only things you physically have after t...
he big day. Peter did not disappoint. All of our 1000+ pictures are beautiful. We truly couldn't be happier. And on the day of Peter and his partner Chris were fantastic - fun to be with and made sure we were on schedule leading up to the ceremony. We highly recommend Peter Wynn Thompson!
Photography is one of the most important parts of a wedding and Peter and his crew could not have been better. My father, my husband, and I looked at over 20 photographers and we s...
igned with Peter because he was the most reasonable and personable. My father is very passionate about the fine print in a contract and Peter was the only one who would negotiate and modify his contract based on our needs. I met with Peter a week before the wedding where I gave him a list of "wanted photos" and on the day of our wedding he and his partner, Chris, got every single photograph on my list and so many more BEAUTIFUL photos! Both Peter and Chris were extremely personable and we would recommend them to everyone!
One of the first vendors we booked when planning our wedding was a photographer. Ultimately, these are the memories we will have of our day once it is over. Peter was phenomenal to...
work with. He truly has a unique style and caters it to the couple he is working with. My husband and I are definitely not people who are regularly in front of the camera, but he made us feel so comfortable and we loved working with him.
I highly recommend Peter as a wedding photographer! Peter photographed my wedding day and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made my husband and I feel comfortable throug...

e the moment between us and also appreciate the space we were in. My husband is camera shy and Peter made even him feel very comfortable.
Peter is absolutely fantastic to work with. He makes you feel extremely comfortable and has an eye for the most beautiful candid shots. I highly recommend using him!

e has a way of capturing moments of sheer joy that we will be able to look back at years from now. Thank you Peter!
My wife handled 90% of the planning, but she left me with one important task. Find us a wedding photographer. Since I'm a fairly competent amateur photographer, she trusted me wit...
h this. After narrowing my list, I finally selected Peter Wynn Thompson.
He was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was very laid back, friendly, and most importantly, a great photographer. After our engagement shoot, I knew we were in good hands, and he didn't disappoint.
In regard to style and technique, he gets candid photographs that are creative, but not pretentious. Some photographers feel they're artists and forget there's a wedding going on. Also, I personally hate photographers who try to make up for bad technique by punching up their photos in Photoshop. Peter gets it right in camera, which doesn't require much post processing. Everything looks natural.
Bottom line, I can wholeheartedly recommend Peter Wynn Thompson and would use him again in a heart beat.
Peter was amazing to work with. He captured such great portraits and special moments during our wedding day. We plan on using him for all of our future family events. You will not ...
regret using peter Wynn Thompson.
Fabulous photographer and wonderful to work with! Couldn't be happier with the pictures!
Peter Wynn Thompson is the best in the business. He handled our wedding photography back in 2012, and we liked him so much that we had him do our newborn pictures when our son was...
born. Besides being prompt, courteous and responsive, all of his photos turned out beautifully. We're so happy to have found him as our photographer.
Peter did a terrific job capturing my wedding day back in August. The photos were amazing and were delivered within a very short time. He and his assistant arrived early and were t...
ruly a joy to be around. The day and night were captured through pictures and ones we will always remember.
We met with several photographers and couldn't be happier with our choice in Peter Thompson.
Peter was so awesome from day 1. I loved that we had the option to have him photograph our rehearsal dinner, and the pictures from that night were totally worth it!
His pricing i...
s super, AND we received discs of every picture from the day to use as we choose!
My now husband and I met with him prior to our wedding to get to know him a little better, so we can all feel as comfortable as possible during the big day, but really Peter is so personable and easy to talk to that it was just fun to meet up at a cool new bar and hang out a little bit!
You will not regret having your wedding day photographed by Peter Wynn Thompson.
Peter is incredible to work with! My husband and I used Peter for our engagement, wedding, Christmas cards and our 1 year anniversary and we have loved every single picture. We lov...
e using Peter not only because of how talented he is and how amazing his pictures are but how comfortable he makes us feel. It's always like catching up with an old friend. We tell Peter what we are looking for and he always gives us great suggestions on what will look best. We are extremely happy with how natural our pictures look and we will continue to use him for upcoming celebrations! We highly recommend using Peter!
Peter had photographer my cousins wedding in 2011 and after seeing the photos I was certain I wanted him there for our wedding. Peter is a very professional individual and was gre...
at to work with throughout the entire process. We did our engagement photos with him to get acquainted and met a week or so before the wedding to work through the details. Peter is very calm and organized and helped to make the day smooth and enjoyable. My husband and I are overly pleased with the photos that we got from Peter for both our engagement and our wedding day. It is so hard to pick only a few to be printed for our home or in our wedding book. I highly recommend Peter's services for your special occasions. He was wonderful to work with!
Peter Wynn Thompson is an absolute professional, amazing talent and a true pleasure to work with. He exceeded our expectations in every way. We now have beautiful photographs tha...

Peter's pictures truly speak for themselves, however we felt compelled to write a review after having the pleasure of working with him. After we got our engagement pictures and wed...
ding photos, we were absolutely shocked by how well they came out. He is truly an artist and we struggled with what pictures to print and use for our albums because they were all THAT good!
In addition to being a phenomenal photographer, he's a pleasure to work with. HIGHLY recommend you at least view his blog because his photos are AMAZING!!
My husband and I were so thrilled with all the photos that Peter took on our wedding day. We knew he was going to do a fantastic job after we saw the photos from our engagement ses...
sion, but he went above and beyond our expectations. We get so many compliments from our friends and family and we cannot wait to get the album and prints. The package we went with was expensive, but we felt that it was worth every penny. I would absolutely recommend Thompson Wedding Photography to any bride.
