“From my first shoot years ago with Tom, I knew right away that he was an 'A' level shooter. Tons of photographers can light, compose and cajole the best out of subjects but not as many can do all those things equally well—and Tom is one of them. Tom has the ability to transform challenging situations into incredible photographs. He's done it for me time after time and under all sorts of conditions. Indoors, outdoors...with CEOs or 12 year-olds...it doesn't matter. In addition to having some pretty supernatural photo skills, I think Tom can read minds. He knows what art directors, clients and subjects are going to say before they even say it. I've seen it with my own eyes. How can you not love a photographer who's always thinking three steps ahead? And who prefers saying 'yeah, let's try it' to 'no, that's too hard'? Or whose energy level has put assistants half his age to shame. I highly recommend Tom for any and all photo assignments you may have.”
