We provide just enough assertion to keep your timeline moving and help to keep you relaxed and present throughout the whole process.

We think real is beautiful. It is our goal to pull out your most radiant and authentic selves and have that read through your images. Contact us via The Knot platform or directly emailing studio@tessamarieimages.com and we would be happy to send you our detailed wedding pricing guide.

Tessa is the BEST at what she does. She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot & on our wedding day — all of our pictures were amazing. She goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly & she is just fun to be around. Highly recommend!

Absolutely the Best Yes (next to my now Husband)

I can't say enough great things about our photographers Vicki and Emily and the Tessa Marie Images team. From the start they made the process of getting set up for the day fun, engaging and not feel too overwhelming. They provided great information, steps and tips as we made our way. They were the second vendor (only after the venue so we had a date lol) we signed as I knew I wanted them to capture our day. Vicki was PHENOMENAL. From day one meeting to hugging goodbye after the reception she was just amazing. I'm not naturally someone who loves being in front of a camera unless I'm joking around but she made me feel confident and everything on the day feel so natural and comfortable that at points I forgot she and Emily were there and was able to just be me (though there were still plenty of goofy faces I know that made it onto the camera). She helped keep us moving so we'd stay (as close to possible to) on time without feeling rushed, got the shots we wanted with family and friends (checked in that if we were ever over the group shot thing she'd take care of it) and even though it rained the whole day and I wanted to be sad there was no sunshine for our photos, she made it feel special and that things were still going to turn out amazing. She is also such a great hype person, knowing what to say when and just the right amount of encouragement as you go through the day. She was creative and fun, engaging and friendly, helpful with even so many of the non-photography questions I had about the day and just wonderful to work with. Make the TMI team part of your big day and I promise you will not regret it!!!!

Amazing!

Tessa and her team were absolutely amazing throughout every step of the wedding process. Tessa was so fun to work with and was a huge part in helping everything run smoothly on wedding day! From engagement photos to final wedding gallery, Tessa and the team were extremely responsive with any questions we had and got our final galleries to us very quickly. They went above and beyond to make our experience amazing not only during the wedding, but also before and after wedding day. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera resulting in gorgeous wedding photos that we will forever cherish! Our wedding party, families, and guests all raved about how great Tessa was on wedding day! We are truly so glad we chose Tessa and so grateful for her hard work and the amazing photos we received. Thank you so much TMI!!

My journey in photography started in high school. Although I was on the path of humanitarian work, I freelanced on the side into college and used the resources and mentors around me to further my technical knowledge in the field. I attended Cal State Fullerton and learned the studio arts in a deeper manner that helped me become a greater creator of light, while simultaneously coordinating collaboration shoots to control the direction of my photography. My passion for post production has excelled during this process and full circles my vision in any given photo collection. I am so happy to be a photo editor now for Tessa Marie Images!

I found I enjoy capturing the small details in the world that may otherwise be overlooked. I love to capture the flow of people and create the perfect light to reveal naturalistic details. I then enhance those original details even further in my retouching practices. Macro details inspire me, and are a constant reminder of how complex our reality truly is. Documenting people and things is the best way for me to communicate my perceptions. I feel there is great responsibility in the art of photography, and that is to allow space for those in front of the camera to feel contentment within themselves, and that is the ultimate intention that drives to create and share.

Some people know exactly what they want to be when they grow up, from an early age. I am not that girl. When I was little I thought I’d be an ice skater (for the uniform), then a designer (but I can’t draw), then a lawyer (I’m an accomplished argument starter), but when I entered college I finally had to choose. So I chose two tracks to hedge my bets; pre-med and business. My junior year I decided I didn’t have the drive to do medicine, even though I had the grades, so I graduated with a degree in international business and marketing. I worked a job in sales for 3 years before deciding I was bored and fed up and I found the job I’m in now as a strategist which opened me up to the world of freelancing. I never thought it’d be the life for me, being in business I always saw myself as a 9-5er or business owner.

Discovering photography has encouraged me further into this freelance lifestyle. By 2020 more than 40% of the workforce will be freelancers, so why not pursue my many interests and make money at the same time? So what do I want to be when I grow up? Anything I want. I’ll strive to be the best I can be and learn something new every day. For now I am a photographer, strategist, Etsy shop runner, blog writer, wedding planner, and cake baker. I’ll wait to see whatever else the future has in store for me.

Growing up in the small state of Delaware I never gave a thought to the big city just thirty minutes away from me. While working on my Associates of Fine Arts in photography from Delaware College of Art and Design, I knew I wanted to continue my education and obtain a Bachelors degree and that is when I found Tyler School of Art at Temple University. Before I had even finished out my first year in Philadelphia I knew I wanted to live the rest of my life in this city.

In my last year of college I was introduced to wedding photography, something I never thought I would find myself doing, but instantly I fell in love. From the small details to the couples love for one another it is always exciting to see how every moment of the day is unique and special to their personalities. My favorite part of the wedding day is our time with just the couple capturing their excitement and love on their wedding day. I am so thankful that I have found my passion at such a young age and look forward to all of the future couples I will have the honor of photographing.
