Tamara was absolutely amazing to work with! We hired her for our wedding reception and we could not be happier with our choice. She was extremely detailed to make sure we got all of the photos we wanted and so much more! She was so helpful getting us to feel more comfortable in front of the camera. On top of everything else we had our photos back in less than a week! Cannot recommend her more. -

Tamara is spectacular, awesome, and an all star!! Everything that she promised us was completed above and beyond!!! Her photos, energy, and willingness to work with us was terrific. My husband and I are IN LOVE with all of our photos (which came in less than two weeks)!!
We had many different locations we needed photos in for our wedding and Tamara nailed ALL of the timing and places. She kept us both on track and captured every piece of our day!!!
Other than her talent, Tamara is super personable and funny! She has awesome ideas and I can’t wait to work with her again!!!
Many of my guests loved how willing she was to take photos of them and how much she engaged with positive energy. Tamara was everywhere we needed her to be!!
Thank you ❤️ -

Stop searching for your wedding photographer - if you are reading this review, then you already found her. Tamara is an amazing photographer and an amazing person! She was willing to work with us on the pricing to create a package that fit our budget. We were worried that we would feel awkward during our photos and Tamara made them so easy!!! We received over 700 GORGEOUS pictures only 10 days after our wedding. We are obsessed with them. Tamara even helped pick up some of the slack of our “venue coordinator” who was nowhere to be found. We have kept in touch with Tamara afterward our wedding and now consider her our close friend ❤️ -

Tamara is amazing
We absolutely LOVED working with Tamara, and can't recommend her enough! Tamara did our engagement pictures and covered our wedding day, and both came out so beautifully! For our engagement pictures, she was willing to meet us early in the morning in order to get the best locations and lightning, and was willing to go to two different locations with us in order to get all of the pictures we wanted. My husband and I are not always the most photogenic, but Tamara did such an amazing job making us feel relaxed and making the whole process so easy and fun. On our wedding day, Tamara beautifully captured all of our favorite moments as well as the small details that we otherwise would have missed. We were running a bit late getting ready before Tamara arrived, and she still managed to capture everything we could have wanted and more. She had a calm and organized demeanor, and was so efficient getting us through all of our photos. She was so helpful not only with getting pictures but with helping to keep me calm and focused on the right things all day. Tamara was so fun to work with. You can tell she loves what she does and wants you to enjoy the experience as well. She is excellent with communicating before, during, and after the event. She had our engagement pictures back within a week and our wedding photos back in just 10 days! She made a huge difference in how amazing our wedding day was and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer! -

Can’t say enough good things about her. She captured our day better then I could have ever imagined. We not only got beautiful portraits but our guest as well from the first look down to the detail shots she got everything! -

Colleen P. Sent on 07/10/2023Absolutely amazing experience booking Tamara
We booked Tamara for both our engagement and wedding photos. If you are looking for a photographer who is extremely kind, personal, and talented look no further! Tamara is absolutely amazing. Her calm yet confident demeanor put me right at ease during a stressful wedding morning. She knows exactly what she is doing at all times and was so easy to work with. Her communication is beyond stellar which was so appreciated during the planning process. I was absolutely blown away when I received 1,500 edited and retouched photos from our wedding in less than two weeks! It just shows how much Tamara loves what she does. Tamara captured our day beautifully. She went above and beyond for us. We can’t thank her enough for giving us beautiful pictures we get to look back on for forever. -

From the first conversation I had with Tamara she put me at ease. We chatted on the phone before I booked with her and she sure knows what she's talking about.
She was great at communicating pre-wedding and made sure she had all the information for shooting locations, what I wanted shots of, just everything.
The day of she showed up and was such a professional. She spent a very long day with us! She knows what she's looking for in a shot and location and I'm beyond happy that we chose her. Myself and my husband are not by any means regulars in front of the camera and she put us at ease and was great with posing us and getting perfect shots.
We hired her with a second shooter and Derek was amazing as well! I wanted him for groomsmen pictures to start and the guys absolutely loved him!
When it came time for the posed family photos Tamara really jumped into action and it was such a blessing. Dealing with 20+ people all hanging around chatting and trying to get different groups together for photos should have been a nightmare but Tamara somehow pulled out the biggest boss voice I've ever heard from such a small person and we breezed through the family portraits.
My husband and I were so comfortable with her. She was amazing to have around. She was somehow everywhere at once. I never had to look for her when a big moment was happening, she just appeared out of nowhere. I didn't worry once that she wasn't getting the shot.
When we recieved the photos (within a month!) we were over the moon. She captured absolutely everything. The photos are absolutely beautiful and we will cherish them forever.
I have zero regrets about choosing Tamara to photograph our wedding. She is so sweet and lovely to have around. Her work speaks for itself. Thank you Tamara and Derek! -

Tamara was a dream to work with! From the first contact via phone to the big day, she was super responsive, flexible, kind, and took absolutely gorgeous pictures! I'm so happy with the final product! If you in doubt about hiring her or not: GO FOR IT! She was very practical during the whole day, setting up the groups of people to the pictures with me and my husband, and all the pictures look amazing. I'm so impressed. She is incredibly talented. -

-We are so glad that we trusted Tamara to capture these once-in-a-lifetime moments for us, and we are so grateful for her outstanding job.
-She was phenomenal to work with, both logistically as a vendor and as a warm presence, allowing us to feel comfortable in front of the camera.
-Less than one month (!) after our wedding day, we had over 1,000 pictures send to our inbox--all were incredibly thoughtful and skillfully done (no 'skips'). She captured every moment, posed and candid. We are beyond impressed at the turnaround time and the quality of the photos.
Thank you Tamara for helping capture these memories so beautifully and masterfully. We cannot recommend her enough! -

Tamara was top notch and we are obsessed with our photos! We met with several photographers prior and after our first meeting with her we knew she was the one. She was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. We knew we were in good hands. She asked for a detailed list of everything we wanted to capture and when we got our photos back we got all of that and more. We opted to do a first look and during that time she let us have our moment and captured some of the sweetest most candid interactions. It also allowed us time to get some one on one photos prior to the start of the ceremony. She had an eye for detail and even noticed a ladybug on my veil and shared with us a story of how it meant someone who passed was with us. This was one of the most memorable things that happened considering both my husband and I have lost a parent. We cried when we saw there was a photo of the lady bug taken when we got our photos back. During the reception she captured all of the little moments with our guests. There were so many great candid photos of pure love throughout the room that we shared with our family and friends. Overall, she had an eye for detail, captured everything we wanted and more, and we have beautiful photos to look back at. We couldn’t be happier! -

The best decision!
Tamara was the perfect photographer for us and we’re so happy we had the chance to work with her! Tamara’s personality is so relaxed, she’s incredibly flexible and her ability to communicate clearly kept the day moving seamlessly. She always had an eye on the time, but we never felt rushed. Every shot we asked for came out beautifully and she even included those typical wedding shots on her own. Our full album was delivered quickly and was so easy to share with friends and family. We were blown away to see how much of the day she was able to cover by herself. Hire her, you will not regret it! -

Melenie P. Sent on 08/13/2022Tamara is the best!
We had the absolute best experience working with Tamara. From the moment she showed up, she went right to work and did not stop. Tamara was so positive and personable, I felt right at ease with her handling our pictures. She came with great ideas for staged shots (that all turned out spectacularly). She also made sure to get the candid and posed shots that we asked for. Not to mention, Tamara did all this, and kept up with a mountain top wedding, while eight/nine months pregnant. That’s no easy feat! I would give more stars if I could. Thank you Tamara for perfectly capturing our perfect day! -
