We can not say enough good things about Tina! Her attention to the smallest detail is incredible. Even our parents were singing her praises. She was kind, gentle, and just has a way of relating to people and capturing them. Her keen eye for a great shot is unmatched. These are just some sneak peaks, we can't wait for the rest! We looked at other photographers and just didn't feel we would get the same quality. Anyone can take a photo, but it takes a truly gifted and skilled person to capture a moment, or rather, many moments! Don't settle. Get the best! And the best is Tina @ Agape House Studio hands down. - The DeTerlizzi's est. December 20, 2021 -

If you're looking for a photographer… look no further! Tina is the real deal. My fiancé and I came across her work online while looking for an engagement photographer in Houston. We loved her portfolio and she was already one of our top choices. While we had planned to meet with a few other photographers, Tina was the first one we met with and we ended up hiring her on the spot! She is incredibly personable and sweet, you can instantly sense her passion for capturing life's most precious moments. Once we decided on a date the weather had something else in store for us. We ended up having to reschedule our shoot date twice due to rain and Tina was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She ended up being able to re-schedule us on an incredibly sunny day with only 2 days’ notice! We had a vision in mind and she really made it come true. She has a gift for finding unique angles that photograph incredibly well. She was so patient with our 2 puppies who were also in our photos. She gave us great direction but also let us laugh and be ourselves. She also made our 2 shoots seem like 5 with our outfit and scenery changes. The pictures were delivered on time and have just blown us away! The pictures turned out even better than we could have imagined and we are SO grateful to have these memories to cherish for a lifetime. Choose Tina to capture those special moments in your life, you will not regret it!

Working with Tina of Agape House Studio for my 2 small weddings was such a fantastic experience. From planning to shooting our weddings to the end product, she was always very responsive, professional, and fun! She answered all my questions about color schemes and logistics before the wedding and we came up with a list of photos we wanted to get. During the events she was so organized and remembered everything we needed to shoot, which is so important in the moment because it gets hectic and as the bride you don't want to be thinking about which photos to get! This allowed me to enjoy my weddings and follow her suggestions.
Something so important to me was getting great candid shots in addition to the posed photos. Tina is so good at this - she has an eye for genuine moments and is very flexible/adaptive to what's happening in the moment, leading to her getting tons of gorgeous candids. The posed photos are also fantastic, but some of my favorite pictures are those little unexpected authentic moments that happened throughout the day. Tina is constantly looking for those and is able to capture them beautifully!
In addition to having a good photographer's eye for taking gorgeous photos, Tina also is a great director! This enables her to create a very fun and comfortable atmosphere for everyone, which further enables those great candid shots - everyone is actually having fun and feeling their best when she's around! We felt like we were hanging out with a friend who happened to be taking photos; it felt very natural so the pictures look natural and not staged.
Her directorial style is also very important for getting great posed photos - it can be grueling for everyone to stand and smile for shot after shot, but Tina's efficiency and calm demeanor made this process fun and quick. And the results are so beautiful, I love the photos!
If you're looking for a photography studio that will give you a seamless, smooth, and fun experience resulting in beautifully photographed memories, look no further than Agape House Studio. I highly recommend! -

Amazing photographer
Tina was absolutely amazing! She made our day so special! She went above and beyond making sure we had the most beautiful photos with the best background. She even went and did more pictures later day to ensure we got the best photos possible. It was a truly unforgettable day and she helped capture that. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our wedding photos. She was AMAZING! -

I am so blown away by the quality of our pictures! Tina and our second shooter captured absolutely everything about our day so beautifully. I feel like it’s so important to be comfortable in front of your photographer and they both were so friendly and comfortable to work with. It felt like we had family friends with us capturing our day yet at the same time they were very professional. They both were so creative and also captured all my requested pictures. I loved how she made sure we got the shots we needed, even if we had to do it over a few times. They both were honest with what was flattering and looked best which is SO important. They hyped us up the whole way through. They were just so fun. And on top of all that, the pictures... my GOSH, absolutely breathtaking. I am so picky when it comes to pictures and I loved every single one. When I tell you there was not one "bad" picture, there really wasn't. And they were so authentic and raw, not a hint of cheesiness. The editing, the quality, the color, the shots... I just cannot imagine them looking any better than they did. They were perfect. Thank you so much, Tina and your wonderful friend/second shooter! I'll be staring at these pictures with joy and love for the rest of my life! -

Hire her now, thank yourself later.
Tina was fantastic from start to finish for our Engagement shoot! From her fun and bubbly personality, to her passion for her work, Tina's the kodak quarterback you want running your photography for any special event. When unexpected weather cropped up on the day of the shoot, ruining one of the series of shots we wanted to get, Tina went the extra mile and offered us several options, at HER expense, to replace them, including even coming out another day. My fiancee and I were both blown away by her commitment to her customers and how much she cares about us walking away with the vision of the pictures we wanted. That's someone who's not just good at her job, but also who has incredible integrity. And just like the good ol days of Billy Mays... BUT WAIT, there's more.
I had asked Tina if we could get a couple of our photos within a week so we could use them for our Registry & website. She mentioned she was going on an on-location shoot soon but would be happy to do that for us. A week later, I got an email from her with ALL THE EDITED PHOTOS (200+). That's right, she sent us the entire edited shoot in ONE WEEK. To say the photos turned out fantastic does a discredit to the Merriam Webster dictionary definition of fantastic, not even an Amazon box full of 1 week old golden retriever puppies could have elicited the number of Awws that came after we looked through the photos.
Boom. Mic drop. Hire Agape House Studios, you can thank me later*.

Fantastic photographer!
Choosing Agape House Studios and Tina was one of the best wedding decisions that my husband and I made! We had initially seen Tina's work previously as she did the photography for one of our close friend's wedding and we loved her work. But after seeing our photos, we could not have been more impressed and blown away. Tina's attention to detail and her ability to capture the emotions and energy is incredible! She has a true passion and eye for photography and the proof is in her phenomenal work. One thing my husband and I had talked about while planning the wedding was how important our photographer and photos were to us. At the end of the day, the only lasting memories that you have are either your photos or video, so choosing a great photographer was crucial to us. I am so lucky that Tina was able to capture our engagements, bridal and wedding day as I will forever have these memories.
Not only is her work incredible, but Tina herself is amazing! She is so energetic, fun, friendly and just easy to be around. She really is someone that you can be great friends with, which I found was really important, as it made taking pictures fun and exciting. She really listened to what we wanted out of our photos and helped to pose and guide us through the photo shoots. I would definitely recommend Agape House Studios and Tina to anyone getting married/engaged. I have nothing but great things to say about Tina and I know you won't regret your decision. -

Wow, just speechless . . . so many wonderful moments and precious memories captured so beautifully by Tina from our wedding day that we'll cherish for many years to come. So grateful for her lovely, devoted work and her willingness to step in, be a part of, and capture this day. We can't thank you enough. -
Amanda Sent on 11/29/2017Tina is amazing! While I was searching for photographers Tina's photos caught my eye immediately. I loved how bright, romantic, and whimsical it was looking without looking cheesy at all. I'm so in love with my engagements, boudior, and bridal photos! I cannot wait to see my wedding photos as I know they will be spectacular. Tina was so welcoming and friendly. She makes you very comfortable which was so great considering my husband hates taking pictures. I will most definitely be working with Tina in the future and would recommend her to any bride!

Denise Sent on 09/24/2018Tina with Agape House Studio is nothing short of AMAZING. Where do I even start? She is so kind, easy to work with, professional, and over a year later, I still have people compliment our gorgeous wedding photos and ask about our photographer! I knew that I wanted to invest in the right photographer after hearing horror stories from friends that they didn’t like any of their photos or that their photographer missed very important moments they’d thought surely had been captured. Boy, am I glad we chose Tina!! She brings such a perfect balance of the candid shots we all love, while still giving very detailed direction to make sure even your posed shots LOOK candid and capture your very best angles. A talent not all photographers possess or take the time to do! She is also a perfectionist and really took her time with our outdoor photos unlike other photographers I’ve worked with. Wether it was waiting for a gust of wind to finish blowing or just taking the time to fix that one annoying fly away hair- she wants the perfect shot for you and gets it every time! We are so grateful to have worked with her on our most cherished day and cannot wait to work with her again in the future!! She will help make you feel more beautiful than ever and even if you typically hate every photo like I typically do— she will send you so many incredible photos that it’s impossible to choose a favorite! Thank you again, Tina! I still cry when I flip through my wedding photos. ❤️

Rachel P. Sent on 10/14/2019A genuine person with amazing talent! I am blessed to know her!
Tina is hands down the best! Not only is her work amazing but her personality shines so bright! If you’re looking for a down to earth, Christian photographer, she’s your woman! She is so accommodating to your needs and does her absolute best to work with you and your schedule without batting an eye! By far one of our favorite people even after the wedding! She truly loves what she does and loves her clients, which in turn makes you super comfortable around her. Such a genuine person who does amazing work! -
Jacqueline Sent on 10/03/2017We booked our engagement photo shoot with her as a sort of test run. Without going into too much detail, we absolutely loved the results. My husband hates taking pictures and is super awkward behind the camera. In our 3 years together, I probably have a total of 10 pictures with both of us in it. I told Tina that if we could get at least 3-5 amazing pictures out of the photo shoot, then I’d be extremely grateful. Not only did Tina deliver 3-5 amazing photos, but we had close to 200 images to choose from. It was hard narrowing it down to my favorite 10! Not only that, but she actually captured my husband smiling naturally! Dimples and all. If you could only understand how amazing that is! Not many people get to see that smile, but to have it captured in a picture that I can frame and keep forever, means so much to me.
After our engagement session, all my fears and worries were relieved about the wedding. I kept telling folks that based on how not-photogenic my husband was, the most important thing to me was finding a good photographer. I knew that we’d be good to go in Tina’s capable hands! At the end of the day, our pictures from the wedding day were amazing. We ordered a photo album and had a very hard time narrowing it down to our favorite 100 pictures. Actually, I think we sent her our top 130, because we just couldn’t cut any of the others. We had great pictures of everyone getting ready, the wedding, the reception, dances, and toasts. But most of all, we had pictures of people having fun, chatting with each other, smiling and laughing naturally. That’s exactly what we were looking for! Our wedding album isn’t full of tired smiles and stiff posed pictures. Instead, Tina captured the day for what it truly was – an amazing, fun, happy time. Thank you Tina for everything! -
