You can always trust a Tess!

Tess was fantastic!
She cracked on and was efficient.
She knew my venue well and listened to my ideas and what we wanted.
Everyone said how amazing she was and how well she organised the guests.
Thank you!

Perfect photographer

I cannot recommend Tess highly enough! My husband and I were not very comfortable in front of the camera, and Tess was brilliant at making the whole experience more comfortable for us. Not only was she fantastic with us, many of our guests have since commented on how unobtrusive and subtle she was throughout the day. She captured beautiful photos that are natural and relaxed.

Cannot recommend enough

Cannot recommend Tess enough she really was the best vendor we had on our special day and running up to it. Very competitively priced with the other photographers in Derby but we feel what you get in Tess’ wedding package goes above and beyond what you’d expect for her price. From the start the booking process was so easy and accommodating. Our engagement shoot was great (even in the rain), Tess is so lovely and easy to get along with there was no awkward moments. She also didn’t mind we were novices at posing for photos which was great as she was able to direct us without being condescending.
On the big day we hardly noticed her at all (ninja style) but somehow she beautifully documented the whole day. There was not a moment missed. Along with our family group shots we have so many memories now saved thanks to Tess. And to have our preview shots already in our emails by the time we got to our hotel THAT night it was so special to drunkingly look back at the day (and again the morning after). The cherry on top really is the keepsake box & usb stick they are so precious and will definitely get handed down generations for them to love as much as we do.

Cannot recommend enough!!!

From a person who hates having their photo taken and feels super uncomfortable, Tess was incredible from start to finish. Not only did she make me feel incredibly at ease, she has such an incredible style. The photos were stunning and she captured our day step by step amazingly. She is such a warm and friendly person which is first and foremost what made us choose Tess. Her work speaks for itself but it's the person that you need to be confident in and I would recommend Tess to anyone confidently. We can't thank you enough Tess ❤️

Love our wedding party photos - Tess is a genius!

We booked Tess for a wedding party we had in October. We got married three weeks before and we just wanted some relaxed photos capturing the party, conversations, funny things etc. We didn't want the fuss or hassel of having to really think about which shots we wanted too much and we just trusted Tess to just do her thing and take mainly candid shots all night. Tess was super friendly, and just got on with it. We've got some lovely (and incriminating!) photos of the night, and that's just the preview shots! Can't wait to see the rest. I would 1000% recommend, and if we ever have a big party again where we want a photographer, then I'd book Tess. 👌💃🥂

A wonderful person and photographer

Tess is great to work with. She took amazing photos for us in our pre-shoot and at our wedding. She was non-intrusive but still got lots of great shots. She listens to what you want and is a friendly, easygoing person to boot. Highly recommended :-)

Amazing!!!

We used Tess for our wedding in March 2023, and had the 'every bit of it' package. We also had a mini shoot prior to our wedding, which was such a great idea as it helped us relax infront of the camera and not be as awkward on our big day!
When looking for a photographer, we wanted photos that are relaxed and natural. Tess was absolutely perfect for this, our photos are incredible, and she really did blend into the background and snapped some great candid photos of us and our guests! We received a few images the morning after our wedding, which was incredibly fast and the rest of our images followed just over a week later. The online gallery is so easy to use, and share with our friends and family, we spent an evening watching the slide show in tears at how incredible it all looked! Every single guest we shared the photos with can't believe how well Tess captured our day. A number of our guests have also expressed an interest in using Tess themselves, as they were so impressed!

100% reccommend

Tess was more than we could have dreamed of for our wedding photographer.
We found Tess as she had photographed a wedding at our venue previously. We loved her candid shots so much.
Through the whole process of planning (and rearranging) our wedding, Tess was very accommodating, patient and kind.
When we finally met in person on the morning of the wedding we both felt really comfortable (which means a lot as my husband is usually quite uncomfortable having his photo taken) We felt so relaxed and we knew we were in good hands.
Tess was the perfect balance of a stealthy hidden photographer as well as great at getting everyone’s attention in the group shots.
We expected a long wait for the pictures to come through but it was such a speedy turn around. We loved looking at the pictures on our mini-moon. You can really see the joy of our day!

The gallery is very user friendly. Every generation of our family has been delighted to browse through the photos. There have been a few emotional moments looking back at them already.
One of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding was booking Tess as our photographer.

Thanks Tess, you’re completely excellent

Professional creative individualised photography

Tess is a wonderful photographer. She was able to provide us with beautiful pictures from our wedding. She was understanding throughout, punctual on the day and delivered above and beyond our expectations. I cannot recommend her enough. So many memories captured from our special day. A true talent.
