T.J. Salsman Photography | Napa Valley, Sonoma, San Francisco, Lake Tahoe

We really can't even put a 4 star rating on any of these categories .T.J. was so personable, down to earth, and very efficient. We were married on a private vineyard, and T.J. was kind enough to drive us up to the location. I mean, what photographer does that? He took beautiful photo's, and captured the ceremony, exactly as we saw it. He offered us a slide show, playing our wedding song, and had it made in less than a week 1/2 for our reception back in Milwaukee. If you want to trust a photographer, and not have the stress of wondering what you're going to end up with, go with T.J. He truly lets you focus on your day. We are very lucky to have had him!! Thanks again T.J.! Casey & Mandy Stang

T.J. is an amazing photographer! My husband and I decided to elope and have an intimate wedding with just the two of us and he did a fantastic job capturing our most personal and sweetest moments! We can't thank him enough! He is truly the greatest...Thanks T.J.!

TJ did an amazing job for us. He captured beautiful and artistic pictures with all types of different backgrounds and lighting. He also caught amazing pictures of us with friends and family during the reception that truly captured the emotions, smiles and fun mood of the night. I would highly recommend TJ to any bride and groom looking for a fun, laid-back yet professional photographer.

T.J. was a godsend for our wedding. He was thoughtful in our pre-planning about the types of photographs we wanted, and he checked out all locations ahead of time. He even came to the rehearsal and took some great shots. The morning of the wedding, he joined us girls at the house while we got ready. He was comfortable around our family, and he tirelessly captured every moment possible. He also had an assistant who photographed the men during the getting ready stages. At the ceremony, we barely noticed T.J. was there, but he got some amazing shots. He had taken the time to establish a relationship with our priest, and they had an understanding about how the ceremony would flow. After the ceremony, just my husband and I went to another location to get some portraits. It was the most gorgeous Fall day, and T.J. found every opportunity possible to capture a beautiful shot. Our reception was a great party, and T.J. and his assistant, Sara, I am happy to say felt a part of the fun! They had a great time, and in doing so, they took some fantastic photos that really capture the joy of our reception. T.J. did a beautiful, thorough job, and I would recommend him...

We feel so lucky to have found T.J.! He is such a nice person and an immensely talented photographer!!! Our package included an engagement session, in which we got some amazing pictures for our guest book. He was always there to answer questions, open to ideas and excited to work with us! Our pictures from the wedding came out so beautifully and we could not be happier with the final product! Our guests all commented on how wonderful he was. He sent us our pictures quickly and even had a few for us to see the next day. We have received many compliments on our pictures and people who did not attend have been tearing up when looking at them. I would highly recommend him to any couple looking for a wedding photographer as I have been to all my engaged friends!!!

TJ was a fantastic photographer! I couldn't have asked for a more professional, more talented man to photograph my special day. He is lighthearted, flexible and has a great sense of humor. He was comfortable with my family and friends, and in turn, made us feel completely comfortable, thus making our pictures so real and intimate. He captured the most important moments of our day. He came early, stayed until the end and worked his butt off. :) He had a couple of preview shots emailed to us only a couple days after the wedding, which was such a wonderful treat. Shortly after returning from our honeymoon, he had all of our pictures posted online. There were so many, which was great because we had so many to choose from and if I didn't look good in one, and my husband didn't in another, there were still plenty to choose from. I would most definitely recommend TJ as a photographer for any special occasion. He is worth every penny. :)

My husband and I could not be more impressed with TJ's talent and professionalism. We didn't get the chance to meet him until the day of our wedding, but after being introduced, we immediately felt comfortable and excited to work with him. He truly captured the intimate and romantic feel of our private Napa Valley Wedding. Our emotions and feelings were powerfully portrayed in each image. After the wedding, he was able to send us our digital negatives within 2-3 weeks. He also included a beautifully done video slideshow of our images to a song that exemplified our personalities. That was and unexpected but very appreciated gift from TJ! We are beyond thrilled with his photography and so thankful that we had him to document our most special and memorable day!

TJ was amazing! He met with me before the wedding and helped compile a list of people I wanted to have photos with. He came early the day of the wedding to check in with me. Which was really considerate of him. He constantly made the whole process stress free. He was very professional and yet had a great sense of humor and was so nice to work with. He also did a fabulous job on all the pictures. He posted them right away as well on his website which my husband and I, as well as family really appreciated. I recommend him to all brides looking for a great photographer! :)

I can't express my appreciation enough for TJ Salsman Photography. Our engagement and wedding pictures are amazing. TJ definitely knows how to catch the perfect moments. It's not about being posed; he really knows how to tell a story of the day’s events. I recommend TJ to all my friends and many have already secured him for their big events. He made me feel relaxed, was easy to work with and very willing to go the extra mile to make everything perfect. The pictures were available by time we got back from our honeymoon and the book of our favorite pictures is the perfect final touch of all he did for us.

Loved, loved, loved TJ's work! Not only did he provide quality service at a great price, he has been absolutely wonderful to work with. He has been extremely responsive...before, during and after the wedding. TJ was great at capturing all of our special moments. We couldn't have asked for more for our very special day!

We can not say enough about TJ...from the first day we met him at our house in Napa we felt at ease. He listened to what we were looking for and his final product was so much more then we envisioned. He captured all the special moments and more at both our engagement and wedding day pictures. We will treasure the wedding album for many years to come. Thank you TJ!

My husband and I were extremely excited about the photographs that TJ took at our wedding. They were candid, vibrant, and unique. He was great to work with, energetic and friendly with lots of ideas, yet also open to suggestions. He really captured our personalities, the personalities of our guests, and the specialness of the location in every shot.

My husband and I hired T.J. to take our wedding photos in 2009. I had worked with T.J. for almost 10 years at The State Journal-Register in Springfield, Ill., when he was a photographer for that newspaper. T.J. had always done high-quality, award-winning work for the paper, and I wanted his journalistic eye for our wedding photos. He came through with flying colors, capturing our special day in creative and memorable photographs. It's hard to imagine more superb work coming at a more reasonable price. I have recommended T.J. to several friends planning weddings, and I will continue to do so.

TJ is an incredible photographer with a calm, down-to-earth presence that I was so grateful for on my wedding day. His photos were beautiful and captured both poignant and lighthearted details that I will not soon forget. His photojournalist background is an incredible asset- he brings the atmosphere of the day to vibrant life. I have recommended him to several friends and will continue to do so!

T.J. photographed our wedding back for us in 2001. My wife and I are both wedding photographers ourselves, so I don't know of a better endorsement than for a wedding photographer to pick T.J. to tell the story of our day! He's fun to be with. He has an incredible eye and made so many nice images for us. He was flexible, responsive and went with the flow instead of trying to control the day. Image quality is superb! Highest recommendation for T.J. Salsman Photography from Warmowski Photography!
