"I've been trying to
figure out what sets Jimmy
Thomas apart from the others and I've decided it's the emotion he
brings to his photos. Yes, he's wildly good-looking but there's more
going on than a pretty face: you can see what he's thinking and feeling
and, for me, that's a very important distinction."
- Barbara Bretton
"There are lots of pretty faces out there, posing in supposedly
romantic ways. But there's nothing romantic about their shots because
they're so obviously fakes. They're concerned about looking great for
the camera, not about being romantic. This is why Jimmy
excels and why I'll keep going back for more of his photos for my cover
designs."
- Delle Jacobs
"Having been a working
model (I made a good living) for the better half of a decade, I would
have given my right arm to have worked with a male model like Jimmy.
He has the heart and soul and it shows in all his images. Not so with a
good many male models, past or present. Now I work on the other side of
the lens and I can appreciate what he does even more. There is so much
blood, sweat and tears that he puts into all his images - all he doesn't
do is physically shoot the image(s)! Oh, but wait! He may figure out how
to do that before all is said and done! You have to have the passion,
and Jimmy
has the passion 110%."
- Rae McCartney
"While they say Men are visual creatures, women respond to key
visuals, emotion visuals, eyes, hands etc. and Jimmy
Thomas
deserves the award thus far for creating those moments that draw us
women in, very few artists or photographers can get these moments that
make our bodies respond, but Jimmy
has figured this out and virtually every cover he is on, I have yet not
to respond to in some way, my body cheats me and reacts every time
:-)"
- Jane White Pillatzke
"The cover model CAN absolutely help sell a book. The reality is
that Jimmy
has presence that grabs. As a cover designer, I look through a lot of
really fine looking men to find the right one, and there are quite a few
out there. But they simply don't have Jimmy's
appeal. His images are bold and he makes them believable. Even before
you open the book, if it's designed correctly (like this one) you are
already getting sucked into the story. I think the point is that Jimmy
sells himself through confidence and boldness and that, in turn, helps
to sell the book."
- Linda Boulanger
"After looking at Stock photo sites, I always come back to Jimmy.
The emotion, the care and professional look of his shots are hard to
beat."
- Karyn Gerrard
"I've seen so many stock images and book covers and none of them
have the same passion and emotion that JT's
images do."
- Chris Coxiereads
"In my opinion Jimmy
Thomas
is the BEST period!! As an avid reader the first thing that grabs my
attention is the cover, so along with a good cover model you must have a
good cover artist. But in only my opinion if the cover model isn't good
then well, it is very difficult for the cover artist because what the
cover model brings forth is the expression & essence of the story /
character and again there is no better than Jimmy
Thomas
he has a natural born gift.... another thing I love is his ability of
change, he is a chameleon, every cover is different and he isn't stuck
to one or two genres, he can do anything & everything! Not often can
you find that in a cover model. Jimmy
as a man is an incredibly smart businessman, truly to know him is to
love him, just ask anyone whom has had the pleasure of meeting him! ;)
An author who wants to sell books will have Jimmy
Thomas
on the cover."
- Shannon Reads
"Anything with Jimmy
Thomas
sells better. Why, just look at the cover!!!"
- Laurie Peterson
"The sensuality of the cover model is what sells the book along
with everything else that goes along with it (the blurb, the cover art
and the characters as well) plus the fact that whenever you have a cover
with Jimmy
Thomas
on it...,
it of course is a must read. The man oozes sexual desire that entices a
reader to pick it up and just sit back and imagine."
- Jamallah Bergman
"I enjoyed the process of working with a cover artist to create my
cover. When I described the hero to the cover artist, she recommended Jimmy
Thomas
and we looked thru his site together (on the phone). What
fun that was! I was so enthralled with Jimmy's
images that I chose him for the 2nd book, too."
