I'm a Washington based documentary style photographer whose got a big heart for all things nature and adventure. I'm the girl that says "I have the best job in the world" to every single person I meet. I truly with my whole heart believe that. As a Washington native who grew up among the immense, endless landscapes of this beautiful place, getting to document your story here is truly where I feel most at peace. Thank you for being here and making this dream of mine possible. I can't wait to get started!
Creating intentional, nature focused imagery to tell your love story.
I'M TESSA
Meet Your Photographer
Seriously from the initial inquiry to the end of the wedding day, Tessa was so communicative, genuine, understanding and helpful with absolutely everything! She went above and beyond, just being our photographer and offered help with planning finding vendors and more. I seriously looked forward to every single one of our phone calls throughout the year, leading up to the special day. Plus the day of our wedding, she was nothing but fun excited & genuinely happy for everyone it felt like she was apart of the squad. Seriously feels like I’ve known her my whole life. She’s so authentic and creative. You definitely need her for your wedding!

She was so helpful in the planning process and created a timeline that worked out so well and got us everything we wanted in a wedding day. We could tell she put a lot of thought into scouting locations, reading our questionnaire, and keeping the energy up throughout the day. We just got our sneak peeks back too and were stunned at how gorgeous and natural looking they are. We can’t wait to see the rest! I highly recommend working with Tessa for any wedding photos.

We had the most amazing elopement with Tessa as our photographer!

Throughout the whole process from booking Tessa to planning calls to the wedding day, Tessa was proactive, easy to work with, professional, and brought a steady, joyful energy to the wedding day. Our family and friends also loved her too- I think that says a lot. I was not worried about anything photo related or schedule wise during the wedding day because she was prepared and took care of it ahead of time. Especially with my husband and I not being local to Washington, she laid out clear options in planning and the whole day went SO smoothly and we are beyond happy with our photos. She captured the day perfectly and it felt so natural to work with her! My husband and I are so grateful for Tessa and would consider her a friend now! I could say more, but just choose Tessa for your dream elopement- she will make it happen!

From our first meeting to the final gallery, the entire process was so much fun and seamless. Tessa listened to our ideas, helped us with locations, and always got back to us quickly whenever we had questions. Her expertise and professionalism helped make our dream micro-wedding a reality!
Not only did my husband and I love working with Tessa, our families loved having her at our wedding. When our 3 year old niece wanted to see Tessa’s camera, Tessa sat next to her, talked with her and let her take a few photos. It was such a cute moment and truly went above and beyond what we were expecting when we hired a photographer.
We had such an incredibly experience working with Tessa and know you will too! We can’t wait to cherish our photos for years to come!

Loved having Tessa document our special day!
I should first say that I am also a wedding and elopement photographer so believe me when I say I was VERY picky when it came to choosing our photographer.
Overall: Tessa was amazing, professional, personal, fun, sweet, quick to reply to messages, transparent about policies and editing style, takes beautiful photos, edits them all perfectly, and is an all around joy to have around!
Its a lot of pressure to be one of 4 people at an elopement and to hike with your clients and keep conversation going, because the group is so small you cant really fade out and be a fly on the wall, like you can at large weddings. Tessa fit in so perfectly, she truly was part of our day, didn't feel like having a vendor hovering over us but rather a friend.
