Hey there! I'm Theresa. 

I believe everyone deserves to feel stunning.

I’ve always had a creative heart—whether it was drawing, painting, or designing, I’ve found joy in creating beautiful things. My journey into photography began when I took a darkroom class at university, and from the moment I developed my first photo, I was hooked! When I left College, I had the opportunity to photograph a friend’s wedding, and that’s when I knew I had found my true passion!

For the next ten years, I had the incredible opportunity to photograph and rent vacation rental properties on the stunning island of Kauai as well as photographing weddings. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to capture beautiful moments at destination weddings in Hawaii, Napa Valley, and Virginia. But what truly excites me is portraiture. There’s something magical about working with people one-on-one, helping them reveal their unique beauty and personality in front of the camera.

What sets my work apart is how I guide each client through the experience, making sure they feel completely comfortable and confident. For many, it’s their first time experiencing a professional portrait session in front of a camera like this, and my goal is to make the entire process enjoyable and empowering. Whether we’re shooting boudoir, branding, maternity, or glamour sessions, I love seeing that moment when someone truly lets their guard down, and we capture those genuine, stunning expressions and their personality comes through.

When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me with my husband, who is a musician in a rockabilly band. The vibrant rockabilly culture and 1950s pin-up vibe inspire me and perfectly align with our lifestyle. We are renovating our 1964 Airstream Trailer and We're excited to restore her to her retro glory! We’ve affectionately named her “Mamma Lou." Down the road, we hope to travel the country and use "Mamma Lou" for pin-up and retro shoots.
