Piratical Photography's approach to photography is like no other. They get angles and shots that you won't see any where else. They set up equipment in places that perfectly capture the most important moments of your day. They are very flexible with different styles of photos. Tom is willing to re-create shots that you've found on the internet and even has the creativity to make his own signature shots. This company is fun to work with and they are eager to make sure you get everything you're looking for in your photos. We would highly recommend Piratical Photography to anyone that desires unique yet classic photos of their big day.

We are so happy that we decided to use Piratical Photography as our wedding photographers. Tom and Brenda visited our wedding venue a couple of times before the actual wedding day .The morning of the wedding, Tom and Brenda coordinated with each other to make sure they photographed the bride/bridesmaids and groom/groomsmen throughout the getting ready stages of the day. Looking back at the pictures now, it is so cool for my husband and I to be able to see the images of each other during that important time period. I remember telling Tom that I hadn't seen my wedding band yet and Mark hadn't see his yet either, so he coordinated with Brenda to get the two rings + engagement ring in a private area and photographed them together. I am so grateful that every important detail was captured during the wedding ceremony. I couldn't be happier with these. Some of my favorites are in black and white. They look timeless and really make the white wedding gown stand out. Another one of my favorites is the barn shot when we are all standing in front of it, or maybe the porch shot.I can't decide lol. During the reception, Tom and Brenda managed to get all of the friends and family shots. They delivered the professionalism and product that was promised to us. After this part was over, the reception festivities began. You don't really know how many pictures are being taken during the reception until you see them all. So, to Tom and Brenda, Thank you so much for your professionalism, organization, and high quality work on our most memorable day so far. When Mark and I look through the pictures, we get to re-live our wedding day.You guys were like photography ninjas getting every angle and shot. Thanks again for everything!
Mark and Rebecca Wathen
P.S. if anyone ones to take a look at our pics, they are on the Piratical website under ‘Wathen Wedding’.

It really was a pleasure to work with Tom and Brenda from Piratical Photography. They were very professional and very knowledgeable about the wedding and photography industry. They had provided a sample photograph shoot list, which was very helpful for me to prepare my version of it. They also improvised as needed. They also provided non-photography advice while I was preparing for the wedding during the day.

Tom and Brenda are the friendly and amazing. Their work is amazing you can tell they love what they do and their quality of picture really are great. My husband and I wanted to fine someone who would make us feel comfortable and they really do make you feel comfortable and try very hard to get the pictures you want. He really went above and beyond for our wedding and delivered absolutely incredible photos. Brenda is the sweeties person on earth took care of the flower girls when I was taking pictures with my husband, she fixed my dress so it looked perfect in the pictures. They really are the best!

Tom and Brenda are a wonderful bunch to work with. Not only do they take the most amazing pictures, they are also the most down to earth and friendliest people I have ever met! They are able to capture all of those "special moments" and have some very unique ideas as well! I would highly recommend them.

Tom and Brenda were a joy to work with. They were professional, friendly, and flexible. During the weekend of our wedding, they were so helpful in the overall flow of the day that I suggested that they should consider offering wedding planning services as well. My family and friends are still raving about their services. I plan to use them for family portraits and any special events going forward. Hire Piratical - you will be glad you did!

Tom is not just an incredibly talented photographer, he is also one of the nicest people I've met. He really went above and beyond for our wedding and delivered absolutely incredible photos. Tom is a lot of fun to work with, and makes the whole experience really easy and carefree. What I love the most is that he works with the best assistant he could ever had, his wife Brenda ;) they make the perfect team. She took care of the flower girls when I was taking pictures with my husband, she fixed my dress so it looked perfect in the pictures. What else can I say I love guys, and I am glad you where part of our special day.

Tom and Brenda are amazing! They have the latest equipment and lighting and they know how to use it very well. They will take a photo of you anywhere! They first want to know about you so that they can tell a story through the photos they take. All I can say "Money Shots!" We have so many photos that are money shots. You are in good hands with these people. You will not be let down. Have fun!

Tom Turk has excellent photography skills. You can hardly realize that he is there snaping pictures. Not only is his work exceptional but his personality makes it easy to be comfortable. He was always punctual for each event and he was always prepared. We highly recommend his work for any event.
