Tim lives near us, I know people he knows. I’ve followed his work for a while. And I knew he was the man for the job. We officially met at our engagement photos that’s offered with...
his wedding package, and he was awesome. Down to earth. Didn’t stage us. No weird posing. We went with the flow. And it was the best. We then received our photos (200+) in about 3 days. INSANE work. And they were STUNNING. I was so excited for him to do our wedding. Fast forward to the day of. We were WAY behind. Like 3 hours. He didn’t mind. He did his own thing with us, the details, the guys. He knew what to do while I had a mental breakdown on time. But he assured me we had more than enough time. Plus sunset photos. When I was stressed he paused and said how can I help. I gave him another job WHILE taking photos, and he did just that. And then DURING THE NIGHT he yells for me from the top floor to check my phone and what do you know, sent me 3 photos! How?! I don’t know but he did and they were STUNNING. Breath taking. I can NOT wait to see our photos! If you’re getting married, or need any photos done, TFC photography is your guy.
From start to finish, working with Tim and his entire team were wonderful. They are so flexible if you have specific things you want, but he is full of ideas and creativity that ma...
ke it so easy to lean on him. The whole team made the day so fun and so relaxed in the best way. They thought of things I hadn’t considered to make sure every single base was covered, and getting the photos back was such a gift to be able to see all of the details they were able to pinpoint and include. Truly beautiful work — I could not recommend them more!
5 stars is not enough!! Tim was amazing in all aspects. He is such a fun, entertaining person. He was extremely patient with my daughter, he was able to read her stress level, k...
eep her calm and capture her wedding day exactly how she wanted. He helped with anything that we needed, offered assistance with things outside of a photographers scope of practice. Hands down, the best photographer we have ever worked with. We can't thank him enough for his professionalism, expertise and exceptional work!
We hired TFC for our engagement photos, wedding photos and wedding video. We had an absolutely wonderful experience with them! They were very quick to get back to us with informati...
on and a quote when we first reached out, and very quick to respond each time after. I loved that we knew who we were going to have as the photographer for our event- I found that isn’t always the case with some larger businesses. Each time we were with Tim and his team, they were so lighthearted, easy going and flexible. Sometimes it feels like photographers can add extra stress to the wedding day, but that was NOT the case with this team. If anything, they lightened the mood and made the day so easy. They had three individuals at our wedding for photo/video, and didn’t charge us extra for that. They took SO many pictures, and honestly all the pictures were amazing. The only negative thing I can say about them is that we had to wait a few months for our wedding video, but Tim and his team were upfront with us about that, and it was SO worth waiting for! Couldn’t recommend this team enough.
TFC ( Tim, melonie, and his other staff) got into the water at Gull Point to get the PERFECT video/pictures of our wedding. Our friends and family adored our wedding video and our ...

Tim and his wife did such an amazing job on our wedding photos! I was so happy when I got them back and couldn't believe how beautiful they were! I would hire them again and

n and will recommend them to anyone who asks. They are also amazing people and made my awkward husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We laughed a lot and had a great time throughout the whole process, both with engagement pictures and the wedding day. Tim was also quick to respond to any questions I had and made payment easy! Can't wait to use them for future photo shoots!
We met Tim and his wife 2 years ago at my sisters wedding! When we got her pictures back they were breathtaking. Fast forward a couple years, when I got engaged and I knew I wanted...
Tim to take our pictures! Tim doesn't just capture pictures, he captures those memories of one of the most important days in a persons life. The day of the wedding, Tim and his team went above and beyond what a photographer normally does! Tim caught all of those moments that mattered!
When we got the pictures back, I was speechless! Every single one of them captured the enjoyment of the day!
Tim was a blast to be around and was so easy to work with! I 100% recommend him!
Tim and Co are seriously so amazing and talented. Super chill but professional. They made being in front of the camera tolerable and even fun! I have zero regrets with my choice of...
photographer. They have a creative eye with a unique look that isn't like most wedding photos. I'm so glad I had them apart of my elopement. They were able to capture our personalities and the fun and emotions of the day. Couldn't recommend them more.
Tim and his crew were absolutely wonderful to work with. Everyone at the wedding tells me how much of a wonderful job he did. His personality is so easy to get a long with and the ...
photos he delivers are unbelievable beautiful.
They stayed 3 hours more than what we paid for and literally used up all the memory on his camera just because it was our wedding. They really went above and beyond what was expect...
ed for us. Also the photo quality was very refined and professional. Tim has a passion for what he does and really makes it a personal project to make them look good, and it comes through in his photography. If I had to go back and do it again, I'd pick them again without question! :)

in between pics. All of our family and friends said we couldn't have had better wedding pictures from our big day. And we whole heartedly agree. They even got the best in-the-moment shots which takes a rare talent to capture those. We would choose Tim and Melanie again in a heart beat! :)
We are so happy we chose TFC photography for our engagement and elopement pictures!! From two people who absolutely hate their picture taken, Tim and Melanie made the whole experie...
nce so much fun that we actually ended up enjoying the experience. ;) COVID had impacts on both of our sessions, but they were so flexible and even ended up traveling out to our elopement in Colorado to help commemorate the ceremony to share with our family back home!! In a time where everything was stressful and chaotic, TFC photography went above and beyond anything we could’ve asked for and now have become like friends! We can’t wait to use them for all of our future photography needs!
Tim&Melanie did both our engagement photos and wedding photos. They took my breathe on the pictures!! Did such an amazing job. Turned out very very gorgeous. They were very easy to...

Melanie and Tim were so great to work with! They made our engagement session so relaxed and fun and worked with us on any crazy ideas we had! At the wedding they helped everything ...
run so smooth and still managed to keep things fun and entertaining. My favorite part was how they wanted us to be ourselves and captured some amazing photos that way, they didn’t make us pose and I was really happy with that! We absolutely loved working with them and I hope to use them in the future for any other pictures and I will definitely recommend them to anyone!
Tim and his wife were such a great addition to our wedding day. They made us laugh and really fit right in. Our video was everything we wanted and are so happy to have this memory ...
captured. We feel they went above and beyond on the day of the wedding to make sure everyone was comfortable behind the camera and having fun. We highly recommend them to anyone wanting a great videographer that also shines a positive light on the day.

idal party but also be serious when they needed everyone to focus. They answered any questions I had without making me feel like I was a bother and also helped me figure out the perfect picture timeline, which was super helpful! Another thing we loved was being able to take so many different picture angles using their drone, it was so cool to see it in action! The best part is we got our pictures back so fast so we’ll be able to cherish our big day forever thanks to their amazing work. We would highly recommend them to all future bride and grooms!

assed away earlier in the year. They took it upon themselves to work with my sister to make my big day extra special. They had a gift for my bouquet and had special pictures in mind for the day to make her part of the day. We had an amazing time with them! Their turnaround time for pictures was nothing short of spectacular! The videography was amazing. I cry every time I watch it. Don’t hesitate to book TFC Photography for your big day! You won’t be disappointed!
Beautiful pictures that we will cherish forever!
