creating intentional documentation of life as it’s truly lived
intimate, vibrant, and unforgettable

ohio wedding photographer who never meets a stranger. chances are I’ll feel like your loud-laughing best friend from the second we meet. On a wedding day, I’m hands-on in all the best ways! fixing veils, sneaking cheeseburgers into the timeline, keeping nerves at bay, and of course, making sure every moment feels effortless.

Oh hey, I'm Tess!

Oh hey, I'm Tess!

For couples who value connection over perfection.

the collections

film + Digital storytelling

Digital captures every detail, every laugh, every dance move.

But film?

Film slows things down.

It’s raw, imperfect, and full of soul.

When I combine the two, you get a gallery that feels authentic and timeless, with images you’ll treasure for decades.

"Tess is the best of the best! She was the photographer for our wedding and was extremely organized and kept the day on time while also allowing enough time for us to enjoy the day. She made everyone feel comfortable and constantly hyped us up. There is not a single photo that she took that my family and I didn’t love. I could not recommend Tess enough!!!! She sat down with us enough to know our vision and she nailed it 100%."

"The best of the best"

Audrey

"Tess was the absolute best for our wedding day! She genuinely went above and beyond, helping with whatever she was able to in addition to taking incredible photos! If you feel anxious about all of the photos being taken and how to pose Tess is the girl for you. She directed photos so well, especially when there are a ton of family members waiting to get photos. I'm so grateful I have photos of all the small moments I wasn't even expecting to be able to look back on. I can't think of a vendor that was more worth booking than Tess. We 100% recommend!"

"100% recommend!"

"So thoughtful"

"Tess was phenomenal at our wedding. She went above and beyond, even polishing my rings before taking detail shots. My family could not believe a photographer would do something so thoughtful.From start to finish Tess felt more like a friend than a vendor. She was kind and supportive, especially when things did not go as planned and I was stressed. That thoughtfulness gave us some of the photos we value most. She also had the right balance of warmth and direction when working with our large and energetic family. She was clear and confident, which kept everything moving.If I could get married again tomorrow I would book Tess again without hesitation
