About Tom Keenan Photography

Hello, I'm Tom

My journey into photography began with a passion for fashion photography, but it wasn’t until I photographed my first wedding in 2012 that I truly found my calling. Witnessing the deep beauty of love and marriage through my lens completely captivated me. It wasn’t just about the aesthetics anymore; it became about the emotions, the meaning, and the unique story of each couple.

Since then, I’ve fully immersed myself in the wedding industry with the unwavering support of my wife, Beth, whom I met during my fashion photography days. Together, we’ve celebrated love stories across Kent, Cambridge, and beyond. From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, every wedding is a privilege, and it’s my joy to deliver heartfelt and timeless photographs to each couple.

As a Christian wedding photographer, I also understand the deep spiritual significance that a wedding can hold. Whether yours is a wedding rooted in faith or not, I embody peace and comfort as I capture the love, joy, and commitment that come with such a meaningful union.

The Story of My Journey into Wedding Photography

I launched my photography business after studying at UCA in Canterbury, and I’m humbled to say that I’ve had some incredible experiences along the way. Early in my career, I won The Photographer Academy Apprenticeship, standing out among over 800 photographers worldwide. This achievement allowed me to refine my skills, especially in studio lighting and portraiture, as my work was documented and viewed by over 80,000 people.

From being featured in Italian Vogue’s Best Of category to photographing celebrities at the BBC, my fashion photography background equipped me with the technical expertise to manage any lighting or scenario on a wedding day. Now, I focus on blending documentary-style photography with natural, editorial-style portraits. 

This approach allows me to capture moments as they unfold while offering subtle prompts during your couple portraits to create images that feel authentic and luxurious.

In addition, as a vegan wedding photographer, I understand the importance of honoring your values on your big day. I’m passionate about working with vegan couples to create a wedding experience that reflects their lifestyle and beliefs. You can read more about my advice for vegan weddings in my article here.

As Seen in

Get to know me

I believe that personal connections are at the heart of my photography. As someone who is married myself, I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with who you choose to photograph your wedding day. Here’s a little more about me outside of the camera lens:


1.

I’m married to a vicar, Beth, and we are parents to our adventurous son, Toby.

2.

I’m a (wannabe) surfer and once drove under a tornado in Lanzarote.

3.

Golf has been a part of my life since I was 9, but I still hook my irons!

4.

I enjoy weightlifting, and my son now cheers me on in our home gym.

5.

We sponsor two children in Burkina Faso and give 10% of our profits to charity.

6.

I’ve been playing guitar since I was 10 and often find myself learning Disney songs at night when I can't sleep.

"patient,
kind and
a great sense of humour"

As a documentary wedding photographer I capture your special day in a natural, documentary style. I photograph the moments of your wedding as they unfold, capturing genuine emotions and getting to know your family along the way.

When it comes to your portraits, I gently give you prompts or questions to build confidence and the photographs have a luxury fashion, editorial finish without feeling artificial. I want you to feel like you're at your wedding, not on a cover shoot.

"what we appreciated most about tom was his ability to make us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process"

"For God has not given us a Spirit of fear, but of love, power, and sound mind.”
