Capturing your love for each other, completely immersed in this world's awe-inspiring beauty is where my true passion lies. The raw emotions, the natural landscapes, and the pure joy of two souls embarking on a new journey together – all these elements combined make for the most beautiful an rewarding job as your photographer. My promise to you is to tell your story with love, creativity and intention so you can always look back on your day and remember exactly how each moment felt.
WHAT TO EXPECT FOR OUR TIME TOGETHER
Imagine a day not bound by tradition, stress or expectations. A day not limited by something that doesn't completely light you up inside or reflect you as a couple. Adventure elopements allow you to not only connect to the outdoors, but also give the space and freedom to choose anything that resonates with you and leave whatever doesn't. I'm passionate about celebrating you and your love with a day filled whatever you're dreaming of. Maybe it looks like:

Your first "Yes" is to the love of your life, your second HAS to be to Tessa. By far the best choice we made during our wedding planning process.
- nonie and davis
She's a true artist. The photos are one thing to keep forever, but that day with her is truly a core memory for us.
- Jo and nora
From my initial inquiry all the way down to gallery delivery, my experience with Tessa was a 100/100.
- Chelsea and Kyle
tessa has the best aesthetic and vision. if you like to get into nature she’s your gal!
So much talent wrapped into one photographer, I will forever recommend!
- Kalie and Jacob
- Jesse and Kyle
She was super attentive to detail and understood everything I wanted 100%. it felt like it was going to be just as special for her as it was for us.
My shooting style is very emotive, inspired by a focus on nature and comes from a more documentary approach. I'm there to guide you through our time together but also strive to create space that allows you feel this moment deeply with your partner.
Much like my shooting philosophy, my editing style is also heavily inspired by colors found in nature like deep forest greens, alpine lake blues and rich browns. My tones tend to be earthy, moody and nostalgic.
04 how would you describe your style?
I take backing up and protecting your memories very seriously! I shoot every session, elopement and wedding on two consecutive cards so there are automatically two copies of each photo from the second I begin shooting. Your photos are then saved to multiple different hard drives and backed up to the cloud to ensure they are safe with various copies.
03 how will you keep our photos safe?
I have been a full time photographer and shooting elopements/ weddings since 2021. Prior to being a photographer, I worked in digital marketing and was a social media manager.
02 How long have you been a photographer?
For couples sessions, you can expect your full gallery within 2-3 weeks. For elopements and weddings, turnaround time is anywhere from 4-8 weeks depending on your package. I always send a sneak peek gallery within 72 hours of our time together!
01 When can we except to receive our photos?
Absolutely! A vast majority of my couples are from out of state and many are experiencing Washington for their very first time. As a born and raised Washingtonian and an avid outdoors lover, I have extensive knowledge of various areas, our national parks, season and weather patterns, permits and so much more. Getting to share my own with others is such a special part of my job!
