I’ve had a love for photography ever since I was a little girl and I have my mom to thank for that! She took so many photos of my sister and I growing up and made us each two huge scrapbooks that document our lives from birth to age 18. I didn’t think much of it then, but now as an adult, I realize how much those tangible memories mean to me. They’re irreplaceable. That’s my “why” behind my business. Although it took me awhile to find my way into this business — even after graduating with my Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art. Only after finding myself in a career being a full time nanny did I realize that families & little ones is my specialty. It may have been the long way, but God lead me down this path and showed me that this is where I’m meant to be. This is where I’m meant to serve.
I'm here to create BEAUTIFUL PORTRAITS OF WHAT MATTERs MOST to you

I’ve done a mommy and me newborn session, as well as a family session. The photos have been phenomenal both times. I will cherish the photos she has taken for our family forever, and cannot wait to do future sessions with her!
I truly cannot recommend Tessa enough!

She is patient with our active dog and thoughtful about the images she takes for our family. She’s given us the best memories for maternity and newborn photos! She makes everyone comfortable and relaxed. Always look forward to getting pictures with her for all our special occasions!
Absolutely wonderful experience working with Tessa!

Our pictures turned out absolutely phenomenal! She has an amazing personality and was so sweet with my daughter. We’ve even booked our third session with her!
