About

Choosing a wedding photographer is a big deal. That person has the ability to really make or break your day. Your images are truly one of the only tangible things you will have from your wedding. Your memories are important, and we take that seriously.

Our mission at TMI is to create an unmatched client experience, achieved by an assertive approach to each unique wedding story; in combination with creating dynamic imagery that focuses on moments.

As a studio, we have photographed over 300 weddings and know that you don’t have to be a professional model to look amazing in your images. We will give just enough direction throughout your day to help you feel at ease in front of the camera while also focusing on capturing your most candid selves. 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.

Book tessa now!

From beginning to end Tessa made our day fun, special and so so stress free. She has a playful and assertive personality that takes charge of all of the details so that you can sit back and enjoy your day. She made me feel beautiful! She got all of the good angles and helped with posing(which I needed!!) and made my HUSBAND and I feel so comfortable in front of my he camera. She also had such helpful advice that calmed our nerves and helped us to be more present throughout the day. By the end of the day it felt like you had a friend walking around with you and celebrating this special day. I can’t recommend Tessa enough!!

The best photographer!

Tessa is an amazing photographer! She and her team know exactly what they are doing when it comes to weddings!! Tessa wrote up a timeline of our wedding day, which was so helpful to share with the bridal party, family, and venue. As someone who doesn’t know how to pose for pictures, Tessa’s directions were incredible. She also has a great eye for capturing candid shots. She made the day so enjoyable. We got the 10 hour + photo album package, and I’m so happy with our experience. I would highly recommend TMI!

Amazing, Professional, Talented

Tessa and her team were an absolute joy to work with throughout the entire wedding process! I truly LOVE my wedding photos and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Tessa has an incredible eye for capturing beautiful moments and ensures every shot looks amazing.

She provided clear direction during the photo, guiding us on where to stand and making small adjustments that made a huge difference in the final images. Her feedback throughout the process was invaluable! I appreciate all the different spots throughout the venue that we have photos.

From the very beginning, Tessa was incredibly responsive, answering emails and questions quickly, which made me feel supported every step of the way. One of the best parts of our package was the engagement photo shoot, it was such a great opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.

With all the stress of wedding planning, having Tessa’s guidance, quick responses, and organized approach made everything run seamlessly. She created a detailed timeline that kept us on track and truly listened to our vision, ensuring we had all the photos we wanted. She was a great advocate for us throughout the craziness of the day, making sure we got the shots that were most important to us.

Beyond her talent and professionalism, Tessa brought such a positive energy to our wedding day. She made us feel at ease, supported, and celebrated. I HIGHLY recommend Tessa and her team, they are truly AMAZING!

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!!

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!!!!

Best photography experience!

Wow!! We were so impressed with Tessa from beginning to end. She was attentive and made us feel so comfortable (her and her assistant). She was amazing at navigating the venue and efficiently setting us up through the many shots. She really gets to know you as a couple and it definitely shows when you see your photos. Her skill as a photographer is incredible. We're a couple that did not have pictures as a top priority to take up much of our day, but we are so happy that Tessa made it so easy and we came away with amazing pictures to remember our day!!

Amazing Experience - Highly Recommend

Tessa was incredible! Tessa shot one of my cousin's weddings in 2020, and the moment I saw her handle our loud, fun-loving families with ease, I knew she might be someone I would want to capture my special day. Fast forward to 2022, and she did an amazing job. Every meeting with her put us at ease. She was fast, efficient, and still got all the shots we wanted and more! We love our wedding (and engagement) photos and will forever cherish them. I also have to add, our guests and bridal party love them just as much as we do - everyone looked amazing!

Tessa made my wedding a dream

Tessa and her team are the absolute best. If you hired someone else -- try to cancel your contract and hire Tessa- but really. I cannot say enough positive things about Tessa, her energy and her team. They are so professional and their energy will power your day. Tessa has an amazing eye and makes the photo process enjoyable. To say the day had fires is an understatement and Tessa pulled the whole thing together while getting me in line anytime I was about to fall apart. Her direction is the best and she knows how to control a large crowd so that your photos turn out amazing! She is easy to work with and works with you to create a seamless day. With something as important as your wedding- I wouldn't trust anyone else but Tessa and her team!

The photos- I have never looked so good in pictures, let alone our guests. The candids caught the love & laughter of the day. My friends have been hounding me about seeing the entire wedding album once they saw the sneak peeks. Short story- my friend was married and photography was through someone else. The bridal party started giving our own direction by saying 'Remember what Tessa said' and quoting some of her other directional pointers. She left an amazing memory outside of the photos she's provided.

I have never been happier with a vendor in my life. Tessa is so talented at what she does and has a lovely personality to go with. I've received so many compliments about her demeanor.

And lastly, Tessa thank you so much for incredible memories! Vicky did a great job laying our photo album out and we are so excited to look through all of these photos for years to come!

Professional, organized, and overall amazing!!

We had the pleasure to work with Tessa 3 times; for our micro-wedding during the pandemic, our engagement shoot, and finally our big day this year. Would recommend her 100%! Not only are her photos beautiful, but she provides clear direction on what to do that immediately makes you feel comfortable. She is extremely organized and on top of timelines, desired shots, etc. without being overbearing, making sure you still have chance to enjoy your day. Her 2nd shooter Vicki was also fantastic, and so sweet bringing me water, holding my huge dress, and making sure we were having fun. We will definitely be using her for all of our future photo needs.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
