Capturing moments, creating memories

Welcome to Lasting Memories by Tom LLC, where we transform fleeting moments into timeless treasures. We're dedicated to exceeding your expectations and creating photographs that you'll cherish forever. Let us help you tell your story through stunning imagery.

Our Approach to Photography

We approach photography with the same care and preparation we bring to all of our services. Our focus is on capturing authentic moments, meaningful details, and the natural flow of your day — without intrusion or unnecessary staging.

Photography That Preserves the Moments 

Tom offers professional photography for weddings, elopements, birthdays, and anniversaries—capturing each celebration with care, intention, and authenticity. His approach focuses on real emotion, natural movement, and the meaningful details that make every moment personal.

 

Many couples choose to enhance their photography experience with Behind-the-Scenes Coverage, personally provided by Danielle, who captures the quiet, unposed moments that happen before, during, and after the ceremony. These behind-the-scenes moments—deep breaths, happy tears, shared laughter, and subtle connections—preserve the emotion and movement that often go unseen.

 

The Lasting Memories Promise™ shapes how we capture photographs — focusing on meaningful moments, thoughtful composition, and images that can be returned to with warmth and clarity long after the day has passed.

Guided by The Calm Presence Promise™, we work quietly and attentively, allowing moments to unfold naturally while providing steady, professional coverage without disruption.

Clear Roles, Thoughtful Coverage Photography Only

For photography-only bookings, Tom serves as the primary photographer, leading coverage and creative direction throughout the event.

Danielle supports as an assisting photographer, helping ensure coverage flows smoothly and no important moments are missed.

For behind-the-scenes coverage, Danielle serves as the primary creator, focusing fully on candid moments, details, and the experience unfolding around the event. Tom assists only when needed, so behind-the-scenes coverage remains focused and uninterrupted.

Each role is clearly defined to ensure professionalism, calm coordination, and intentional coverage — without distraction or overlap.

 

 

Clear Roles, Seamless Coverage For Combined Wedding and Photography 

During weddings and events, each role is clearly defined so nothing is missed.

Tom serves as the officiant and primary point of guidance, focused on the ceremony flow and the couple’s experience. Before and after the ceremony, Tom also serves as the primary photographer, capturing key moments and portraits.

During the ceremony, Danielle steps into the role of primary photographer, ensuring full photographic coverage while Tom is officiating. Following the ceremony, Danielle returns to her behind-the-scenes role, capturing candid moments, details, and perspectives that naturally unfold throughout the day.

This approach ensures professional focus, calm coordination, and thoughtful coverage — without distraction or overlap.

Every role, transition, and moment is handled intentionally — so couples can stay present and trust that nothing is missed.
