From the first time we met Thom, we knew he was the right fit for us and our wedding. He made planning for our wedding in the middle of a pandemic stress FREE! Thom is organized, creative, and makes photography fun. His experience in the industry is evident through not only his work, but the way he is able to command a room. Thom had one of his assistants live stream our wedding for our guests that could not travel during the pandemic, which I am so grateful for. Now we will be able to watch our wedding mass for years to come. Thom also captured many couples, family, and friends photos throughout the day. Our family and friends continue to rave about Thom's work and his wonderful personality. We cannot thank Thom enough for capturing memories that will last us a lifetime! Look no further Thom is your guy to make your wedding photography dreams come true!!

Thom was great from start to finish! From the moment I reached out, he was very responsive and answered all my questions in a timely manner. He was also willing to travel from Lake Geneva to Milwaukee with no additional fee which was SO appreciated as most photographers will not entertain that idea. Thom was an hour early to our session, and because we were early, we got almost 1 hour of additional photos as added value!! Amazing. He also gave us a link to ALL photos for a very great cost. Thom was fun and easy for both my fiancé and I to work with. 10/10 would recommend him to anyone!!!

We hired Thom to shoot our wedding near the end of August. Not only was he professional in his demeanor, but he was also fun and kept things relaxed. He offered a great balance between posing us for beautiful pictures and letting us be our natural selves. Both the posed and more candid shots turned out wonderful! He was also very accommodating and patient when taking shots with our adorable yet uncooperative young daughters. We appreciated his direction and relaxed attitude throughout the entire day. Thom’s pricing is extremely reasonable for the services that he provides which were exactly what we were looking for. We had a fantastic and fun experience and we are so happy that we choose Thom to capture our special day!.

Last October, we hired Thom Hooke Photography as the photographer for our daughter's wedding. I knew at first meeting, that Thom was the right person to capture our daughter's special day. As we interviewed each other at this first meeting, he actively listened to our wants and desires. His photography portfolio is filled with years of picture taking around the world. As I looked over his portfolio, I admired his ability to capture candid photos showing the personality of his subjects. He loves shooting weddings. Everything Thom promised, he delivered. He was punctual and professional. His years of experience have resulted in a quiet demeanor that does not allow him to become frazzled if your "special day" does not go as planned. We had visions of a beautiful sunset over a lake for our daughter's wedding. Well, the temperature dropped to 30 degrees with 40 mph wind gusts. Thom, the true professional, made adjustments, and captured the wedding beautifully. We couldn't be happier.

Thom was amazing. He makes you feel so comfortable and our pictures turned out amazing. He has an artistic eye and captured some amazing moments. We were so happy with his work! I would definitely recommend him to other future brides.
Message From Jen Stuart
My partner and I searched through pages and pages of portfolios until I found EXACTLY what I was looking for in Thom’s work. His work is incredible and as an added bonus he is a super person. He is so good with communication and his relaxed shooting style made our day so smooth. Look no farther! You will not be disappointed!
Message From Alice B.
I actually chose Thom based on his reviews and his relaxed journalistic style! He came highly recommended and definitely did not disappoint! I could not have been happier with a photographer. He was the photographer and not a service. I never had any trouble getting a hold of Thom and he answered the million questions and concerns I had even within days of our wedding. Thom arrived early, which was fantastic! Throughout the day I never worried once, as he was capturing every moment in real-time. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants professionalism, vision, and a genuine care and respect from their photographer. He took almost 2,000 pictures! Because of Thom’s flexibility and creativity, I have pictures from my wedding that I'm going to cherish for years to come. We had such a great time, he was professional and so casual, everything was easy and stress-free. He was amazing!!
Message From Jana P
Our photos were unbelievable! I have gotten so many compliments on them. We had some issues because of the different strong personalities among family members and Thom was able to make everyone comfortable and forget their differences I didn’t think it could happen. He brought along a second photographer and there was always someone in the right place at the right time. I highly recommend Thom you will not be disappointed.

Thom was a dream to work with! Extremely professional, creative, and personable. He knew how to make us comfortable in front of the camera and brought out the best versions of ourselves. Turn around time was quick and the quality was amazing. I would highly recommend Thomas Hooke Photography.
Message From Rachel D
Thom Hooke was a dream come true! He was such a pleasure to work with and made it so much fun for Us and everyone involved. Our photos were unbelievable! I have gotten so many compliments on them how we all look like we are having so much fun, and it's because we actually were! Instead of the typical posed candid shots where you're told to be laughing and not looking at the camera, We really were laughing and having fun! That is because Thom was so fun and made all my girls so comfortable it was so enjoyable. You can truly see it in our photos. Thom was extremely dedicated he even showed up before we did at the venue and had already scouted the whole place. I'm usually not one to show off pictures of myself or even post much on social media, but I can't help myself with these photos. I have shown them off so much and the reactions are so incredible! We could not be happier with our experience with Hooke photo and I recommend him one hundred percent.
Message from Christina and Fernando
Thom is seriously experienced and thorough. Beyond knowing ambient lighting he brings extensive commercial studio lighting skills into his work and gives catalog-worthy results. If you want someone who isn't going to churn out formulaic shots and give you something both professional and unique hire Thom. He's the real deal!,
Message from Joe & Karen Skutas,
Dear Mr. Hooke
Thank you for the very professional wedding photography that you performed for my daughter on September 25, 2016. My wife and I were impressed how you seemed to be everyplace at the proper moment, yet I hardly noticed. I had visions of the wedding being taken over by the photographer. We have seen weddings where the photographer tries to take control of the process demanding that the bride, groom, and wedding party submit to a day and evening of photos removing them from the essence of the event, this did not happen with you. You did everything as promised, your dedication, hard work, and professionalism are greatly appreciated. The photos were fantastic, Thank you for documenting a very important day in the life of our family. Sincerely, Joe & Karen Skutas

I could not be more thrilled with my wedding photos! Thom Hooke is an incredibly talented photographer with a creative eye. Not only did my photos turn out beautifully, but we had such a great time taking them. Thom is great at making you feel relaxed so that the "real you" shines through. He is also great at handling a crowd and making sure you get the shots you want, along with the ones you would never think to get. I highly recommend Thom Hooke and look forward to using him in the future for family photos.
