This is me

(in a nutshell)

What can I say, I geek out over pretty pictures. 

I get such a buzz from freezing a particular moment in time and having it as a reminder of who, what & where we were along this mad roadtrip we call life (I’ll have extra cheese with that, thanks!).

I’m Tessa, a down-to-earth wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Kent, UK.

A creative soul from Cape Town, South Africa, I’ve always been surrounded by beauty and I found myself never wanting to close my eyes in the fear of losing a moment altogether. So I picked up a camera and haven’t really put it down since (except when I’m making popcorn).

Your love story, your way.

The journey continues

From there to here...

I’ve been taking photos professionally for the better part of 15 years now. It’s become an extension of who I am.

Five years ago, my husband and I relocated to the UK and are enjoying life in Kent together with our beautiful daughter and a long list of hopes and dreams. 

We love being outside in the sunshine, exploring, not taking life too seriously, eating good food, watching Friends re-runs, telling really bad jokes (love me a pun!) and connecting with people from all walks of life.

In case you were wondering...

I do other stuff, too!

Apart from weddings, I also offer personal and commercial photography including family sessions, lifestyle, branding, products, food, interior and events. Take a look at some of my work by clicking any of the links below.
