“Our experience with TWA was nothing short of magical. My husband and I found their website through The Knot and we instantly fell in love with the photos we saw. TWA made the process of selecting our photographer for our engagement shoot and wedding very easy. Their facility was clean, welcoming, and professional. We could not have been happier with the way our photos turned out! We just completed our order for our wedding album and we are so excited to receive it! We would highly recommend TWA.”

“TWAs photos definitely stood out to us when we were planning our wedding, so we decided to make a consultation appointment. We met with Nick and we were so impressed with how prepared, professional, and honest about everything he was. We didn’t even meet with any other company, we booked then and there. We are so pleased with how all the photos turned out and can not wait to get our album and wall decor! I would recommend TWA to anyone who is looking for the BEST photographers!

“TWA far exceeded our expectations. They are certainly the wedding photography experts! We originally interviewed several photographers, but decided to work with TWA because we were most impressed with their team and portfolio. TWA did not disappoint. Joe’s unique use of light and tone, along with his ability to take advantage of our gorgeous venue space, made our wedding photos look like artwork! The photos are breathtaking. Thank you is simply not enough. TWA, you have captured moments that our family will treasure forever!”

“I booked TWA after finding them on The Knot. My husband and I were having a out of state wedding and TWA were so accommodating, we had telephone conference calls all the time to keep us in the loop as to what was going on. Our photographers were exceptional as well as our videographer. We have had nothing but a great experience and continue to as we are now picking out our albums and pictures. I highly recommend TWA to anyone who wants a company that knows exactly how to take wedding pictures just the way you want and a stress free day for you and everyone else!”

TWA is the best! I dare you to try another and get all the fabulous, perfect memories that we have forever! From our first meeting with Tim (the OWNER) to our wedding day to the last meeting to create our memory album… no one is better!! They let my whole family sit in and they ask a lot of questions!! Yet, Tim was so patient, kind, and professional with everyone. He is a phenomenal person to work with when you’re a little stressed and confused because he guides you along an easy path! Little moments that can easily be forgotten are now preserved in time forever!! We are so very happy and still crying every time we look back on our photos! I cannot find or recommend anyone better!! Please give them a try and I guarantee you will get everything you ever wished for and more!”

“TWA has been nothing but exceptional throughout our entire engagement and wedding experience. TWA was our photographer for both engagement session and wedding day, and we booked them for video services! From meeting with them in the beginning, to planning our special day and making all of our wants happen they have been truly phenomenal. I could not imagine going with any other photographer as I felt like part of the TWA family and like their only goal was to make us the happiest couple ever! Do not let the pricing scare you off during your initial meeting because the price you pay is for quality, service, timeliness, etc. I did not have to worry about organizing or planning anything with TWA and that made my wedding planning that much more enjoyable! We are now able to choose our images for our forever-wedding album (which is guaranteed for LIFE no matter WHAT), it really solidifies the investment we made, and we would not change it for the world. Thank you again to everyone with TWA who helped us and is still helping us figure out our album and wall art! You all are THE BEST!”

“I booked Timothy Whaley & Associates because they were recommended by a friend of mine that also used TWA for their wedding several years ago. I went to several photographers and TWA was by far the most accommodating and offered the best packages. From day one they were extremely professional, provided quick responses, friendly, and well into detail. On your wedding day you have a million things going through your head and hoping everything is perfect. If you want your photos to reveal your wedding day and capture your style you need to have TWA take your wedding photos. Your wedding photos is something that you will have for the rest of your life and you really need someone that takes the time to get to know the couple and TWA couldn’t have made us more happy.
