Kind words…
“One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was booking Teresa to do our photography! Teresa is not only a brilliant artist and photographer, she’s also a wonderful director, coordinator, family wrangler, and a genuinely good person! Teresa worked with us and our ever changing schedule leading up to the wedding, and the day of we felt confident we were going to get all the shots we wanted for our special day! She was flexible, incredibly well prepared and easy going! She and her team gave us great direction and poses to get the shots just right. They experimented with different lighting tricks, made us laugh, and got genuine smiles from both of us doing our photos! AND! They were able to get photos of us with both our eyes open, which is a real trick for us hahaha. Lastly, we are an LGBT+ couple. When looking for vendors there is sometimes a fear that questions or issues with our relationships will get in the way of our day. Teresa quickly assuaged our fears. She was so happy and excited for us, it honestly made us forget that we were any different from any hetero normative couple. If you have any questions or doubts on who to book for photography, I cannot recommend Teresa highly enough. You will not be disappointed, and there was no one else we can imagine documenting our special day.”
“Teresa was absolutely amazing to work with! We used her for our June 7th wedding at the Riverhouse. From our very first phone call with her to after the wedding she has been so wonderful to work with. Teresa is truly a talented photographer and invests so much into the couples that she shoots and her work. During our sessions prior to our wedding and especially on our wedding day she made both my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable. She also made our fur baby Louie feel comfortable during our engagement shoot and was so welcoming to the idea of incorporating him in our photos which was important to us. The day of our wedding Teresa made sure we had every photo taken that we had requested, offered amazing suggestions and provided us with a detailed timeline which helped move the event along. She was flexible, warm and truly made us feel at ease. We would totally recommend her to any couple looking for a kind photographer who does beautiful work and is both professional and personal at the same time. Teresa was such an important part of our day and we are so glad we chose her!”
"Teresa is awesome! She provides amazing customer service from the time you meet her through the time she delivers your digital album, 3-4 weeks after your wedding day. I clicked with Teresa instantly the day we met and she held my husband and my hands through the entire planning process leading up to the wedding. She even shot a mini-engagement shoot in the week before the wedding so that my husband could meet her and she could see us interact together. We were completely confident that our day would go smoothly photography-wise and boy, did it ever! Once in full "game day" mode on our wedding day, Teresa balanced being friendly and accommodating to our wedding party and guests with doing the necessary crowd control to get the shots we asked her to, plus so many others! Her full day coverage allowed us to have pictures from both of our getting ready locations, our first look and then the ceremony and reception at our venue: four locations and over 10 hours of shooting. After our big day, we were psyched to see our sneak preview pop up in our inbox less than 24 hours after the wedding with 100+ photos! Even better, our full album came through at around 3 weeks post-wedding. From what I've heard from other wedding couples, this is exceptional turnaround time compared to the majority of the industry. The photos themselves are nothing short of amazing! Teresa was able to capture the happiness and love we felt on our day and looking through the photos transported us right back to each of the special moments of our day. From our intimate first look to the formal portraits, to photos of our DIY wedding details, to the dance floor candids and our sparkler send off, and everything in between... WOW! We recommend Teresa to anyone and everyone we can!"
"Every aspect of working with Teresa was fantastic. Come day of, she was exceptionally well prepared for every eventuality. It felt like nothing was left to chance. The photos we got at the end were incredible - somehow, it felt like every moment was captured at exactly the right time and exactly the right spot.”
