Meet Thomas North: The Storyteller Behind the Lens

Engagement photo

We’re lucky to have some very talented photographers contribute to this magazine. They help tell great stories with even greater photos. But from time to time, with so many events and stories to cover, we simply don’t have enough photographers to keep up. 
 
While planning this year’s Easter Egg Hunt, we found ourselves a bit shorthanded. Since the hunt itself is over in a flash, it’s essential to have multiple photographers in place to capture the action. That’s when Thomas North stepped in—graciously volunteering his time after being highly recommended by Jay and Michele Celestino. His photos? Absolutely stunning. 
 
None of our photographers are paid for their work. We trade content or ads in return. So today, we’d like to shine a little light on Thomas and share some of his beautiful images with you. He just might be the perfect match for your next event or photoshoot. 
 
Thomas describes his life as one shaped by curiosity, craftsmanship, and the quiet wonder of light. A devoted outdoorsman and avid book collector, he views the world with a sense of reverence—and it shows in every frame he captures. 
 
Armed with his trusted Canon and a trunk full of lenses, Thomas is ready for anything—from delicate wildflowers to sweeping Central Valley vistas. His timeless, classic style brings a vintage elegance to each session, whether he’s wandering a wild meadow or capturing the joyful chaos of a wedding. 
 
He’s more than a photographer—he’s a visual storyteller. A perfectionist with light and detail, Thomas works with purpose and care. His goal? To tell your story in images that stand the test of time. 
 
He was a calm, professional presence at our Easter event, great with kids and families, and worked seamlessly with our team. Learn more about Thomas North by visiting his website below.
