Proudly serving any location that planes fly 

A Northwest Wedding and Elopement Photographer documenting genuine interactions, belly roll laughs, and deep connections for the adventurous, free-spirited lovers.

Every moment deserves to be captured in memory, and every emotion deserves the chance to be relived

Realizing that this is the one day in your ENTIRE life that you will have all your favorite people in one place sharing the core memory as you marry your hunny. It may seem like your wedding day is still so far away, but before you know it, you’ll be standing in front of all your loved ones taking your relationship to a new commitment. And I understand completely the blend of excitement and nerves you're feeling right now. Planning your dream day and finding the right photographer to document it to perfection isn’t easy. But with my passion for relationships to truly get to know you and your person on a personal level mixed with a knack of capturing the in-between moments, I can bring you an experience of your dreams without any of the chaos you dread. And I can’t wait to show you how!

I’m Tessa and I think we are going to be great friends…

I AM SO PUMPED YOU’RE HERE!! With an obsession for peoples stories and a passion for laughter, I document moments that will instantly transport you back to the moment the camera was snapped. My photography journey started 6 years ago in a college Philosophy class, where I had a photography section. In that section we were tasked to photograph something round. Later that day I photographed a pregnant woman. The composition with the light ignited a fire in my soul! I was hooked. Ever since I started photographing cool couples like you, I've realized how special everyone's story is. We all experience love, but we don’t experience love in the same way. And that itself is truly something so special. Now, I help couples like you, let loose and forget that the camera is even there through connection and relationships.

Kindest Words

from the kindest people

Juna

"Tessa was our wedding photographer and she was AMAZING! First off, she made my husband and I feel nothing but comfortable and like we had known her for years (we both hate photos and avoid them as much as possible). She is flexible, accommodating, thorough, time efficient, and most of all extremely talented. Her photos turned out absolutely perfect."

"There’s a million reasons to choose Tessa as your photographer, but my top 3 is how personable she is, how comfortable it is to be in front of her camera, and the story she tells from behind the camera. Tessa has a way of capturing us like I’ve always imagined and I love getting to see her perspective. she is so easy to befriend and feel like you’ve known each other your whole life."
