About the photographer

Hello, I’m Tom Sheard pleased to meet you

I photograph weddings, couples, families and portraits from a small studio flat in Chiswick, West London – and anywhere in the UK my clients need me.

My story

Real people, real light, no stiff poses

I picked up my first film camera as a teenager and never really put it down. After years of assisting London wedding and fashion photographers, I started working under my own name in 2014, and have spent every season since learning how people relax in front of a lens.

What I love most is the moment just after a pose – when someone laughs at themselves, reaches for a hand or looks at the person they love. My job is to recognise that moment and to be ready for it.

Why two names? Tom Sheard is my professional name and the name of my studio – it is on my logo, my portfolio and this website. Tom Aizenberg is my legal name, so you will see it on contracts, invoices and in the legal notice. Both names belong to one person: me.

My approach

Three promises

  • You will feel at ease

    Clear prompts, gentle humour and plenty of time. Most clients forget about the camera within the first ten minutes.

  • You will know what you pay

    Every price is published, the calculator shows each add-on, and nothing is added after the session without your agreement.

  • You will get your photos on time

    Delivery dates are agreed in writing before the shoot, and I keep you updated at every stage until your gallery arrives.

Working together

How it works

  1. Enquiry

    Send the booking form or call. I confirm availability and the final price within one working day.

  2. Booking

    You receive the terms and an invoice for the 25% booking fee. Once paid, your date is reserved for you.

  3. The shoot

    We plan locations, timings and outfits together, then simply enjoy the session on the day.

  4. Your gallery

    A private online gallery with high-resolution downloads, plus prints and albums if you would like them.

Behind the camera

Professional kit, quietly used

I shoot on two full-frame mirrorless bodies with dual memory cards and fast prime lenses, so I can work in candlelit churches and dim registry offices without flash. Every session is backed up to two separate drives the same evening and to encrypted cloud storage.

Editing is done by me – never outsourced – with calibrated monitors and a consistent, natural colour palette. I am fully insured with public liability and professional indemnity cover.
