    Best night ever!

    Thea was nothing short of incredible in all areas. From the very first phone call to her last photo of the night, she was calm, attentive, and an absolute joy to have around. She listened to all of my wants and most importantly, DON'T wants, and offered advice and input where needed.

    She managed our large group photos with ease and speed. She reminded me of photos i wanted and made great suggestions for others. Thea worked our 100 person wedding alone and was able to capture every single special moment.

    The turnaround time for photos was quick, with a wonderful preview album before receiving the full album

    I would recommend thea a million times over!

    Look no further - Thea is amazing!!

    Look no further!! My husband & I eloped at City Hall and then had a celebration/ceremony in Point Reyes and Thea photographed both. Not only do we love the photographs she took, but she made the experience amazing. I'm not the most comfortable posing for pictures, but she made us feel so comfortable and taking pictures with her was actually fun! She also has great communication & overall great to work with! Thank you so much, Thea!!!

    Sweet and wholesome :)

    Working with Thea was sooo easy! I shared my vision with her and she captured everything I desired and more! Her sweet personality added to our special day and all of our guests loved her. I couldn’t recommend working with anyone more.

    Perfect photos, perfect service

    We booked Thea to photograph our 75-person wedding in Monterey, CA, and we cannot recommend her enough. Prior to the event, Thea was responsive, proactive, and organized. During the event, she was incredibly professional and made everyone feel at ease (especially while taking portraits!) Our guests remarked upon how awesome Thea looked seamlessly switching between her digital, film, and Polaroid cameras. The final gallery was delivered quickly and its quality is beyond our wildest dreams: we have hundreds of beautiful images that show how Thea understood exactly the style and aesthetic we wanted. We are now struggling with choosing which ones to print because we love them all so much. Booking Thea was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

    Fun and comfortable

    Working with Thea was such a fun experience! Not only did she make our wedding day incredibly fun but she was also very professional. She listened to the ideas we had for our photos and definitely did not disappoint! We love our wedding album and can’t wait to use Thea in the future!

    Amazing Experience

    Thea is made of absolute magic. Her attention to detail, energy, and
    positivity are captivating. Her work reflects that, and we are so grateful we were able to work with her for our memorable day! She made sure we were comfortable and had the best time. Thank you for you!

    Thea is the best!

    Thea was the absolute best! She was so helpful before the wedding in helping my husband and I organize what photos I wanted to make sure were taken, and on the day of our wedding, she was so positive, helpful, and organized. She executed all the photos we wanted to have, and took many more amazing photos of special moments throughout the day. We will cherish the photos she shared with us for forever. I am so grateful to have worked with her, and I hope to hire her again for other events in the future.

    Talented Thea

    Thea has a great eye for capturing the perfect moment. Her photos tell a story. Whenever friends and family view our photos, they always inquire who the photographer is. Thea is definitely worth recommending because she does a fantastic job- the photos speak for themselves. Thank you, Thea. Keep up the good work.

    Beautifully captured the best day of my life!

    We found Thea through my husbands coworker. She had photographed his wedding a few months prior and the photos looked amazing! My wedding started at 1pm but she was there around/a little before noon to capture us getting ready. Every moment she captured was breathtaking! She was able to find the perfect lighting for all of our photos (married under the redwoods) and got really creative with how she was taking pictures. Not only did our staged photos come out amazing but she captured the fun of the dance floor too! I was always catching glimpses of her taking photos of every little detail. My brothers wedding is coming up and I know who my number 1 recommendation will be!

    Thea Captured The Moment

    Thea shot our wedding in Monterey, CA, as the only photographer and did an amazing job! I never knew wedding photos could look so beautiful, natural, and fun at the same time. She perfectly captured all our guests and us throughout the whole day, and did this in challenging indoor lighting, to outdoor at dusk, and at a dark night time party. Thea perfectly blended in, knew who all our family members were, and knew which shots were important so that we didn't have to worry about a thing! The most professional, timely, and lovely person I have worked with! Thea perfectly captured the best day of our life.

    Lovely wedding photos!

    We loved working with Thea! Before our wedding, we showed her examples of the aesthetic and moments we were hoping to capture, and she absolutely nailed it. Not only were we thrilled with the result, but she was so lovely to spend our wedding day with. She struck the perfect balance between being a professional who would gently guide us during photoshoots and also a new friend who we (and our guests!) felt instantly comfortable with. I would highly recommend Thea as your wedding photographer!

    Great photos, great experience

    Thea came to our house for new born photos. She was a great combination of being collaborative while still controlling the situation and having a clear vision.
    Her demeanor and personality are great, when you have someone in your house and dealing with your baby feeling comfortable is so important. (She was also amazing about shooting me certain ways to make me feel good about my post baby stomach and not making me feel vain about it haha)
    The photos are beautiful and we got so many great shots. I wasn’t expecting so many to have to pick from.
    Will definitely use her again!

    Thea is exactly who you want to capture your most precious moments!

    Thea is incredible!! A couple years ago she shot photographs of me for my counseling business. Thea is easy to communicate with, effortlessly helped me feel comfortable, and completely understood the feel I was looking for. She enhanced my vision beyond what I had initially imagined and did a great job capturing my personality. Thea is a spectacularly talented photographer and human being. I am so grateful for the beautiful photographs and I recently scheduled another photoshoot for family photos. I highly recommend working with Thea!
