TMI specializes in creating an unmatched client experience, achieved by an assertive approach to each unique wedding story; in combination with creating dynamic imagery that focuses on MOMENTS.

If you get butterflies in your stomach and tears well up in your eyes as you view your images, we consider our job a huge success. We want your wedding pictures to continue to bring you joy and lasting memories, anniversary after anniversary. Our trained eyes combined with a keen expectation of the upcoming moments of your day, creates an opportunity to tell your story rather than simply documenting the event.

The emotions will be candidly captured, creating timeless and authentic images.

Tessa’s Story I have been photographing weddings for the past fifteen years. I began my business as a sophomore in college with a studio based out of Lancaster, PA. The next few years I developed my skills working in the field as well as continuing my Bachelor’s Photography studies at Tyler School of Art with a business minor at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. There I learned sound technical ability, while being stretched conceptually in the fine arts. This training results in cutting-edge images that are unique and timeless. Today, I have photographed over 450 weddings, working with couples not only in the Lancaster and Philadelphia areas but in the surrounding states & around the world, as well.

I love my job. I love meeting new people and I have had the pleasure of interacting with some amazing couples.

I look forward to working with even more!

Causes Getting married is great. It is an exciting time to commemorate the love between you and your partner. We want to invite you to spread that love. My dad (this is Tessa writing) always said, “We are blessed to be a blessing.”

We feel that we have a responsibility to give back and support those that are hurting or marginalized.

We believe that love is the most powerful force there is.

Join us as we support the organizations that are continuing to make an impact in our city, our country and our world.

WITH EACH BOOKED WEDDING PACKAGE WE WILL DONATE $100 IN YOUR NAME TO THE ORGANIZATION YOU CHOOSE

1. Local Love Pathways to Housing PA ends homelessness in Philadelphia for

people who have been experiencing homelessness for long periods of time, sometime decades.

These are people who suffer with serious mental illness, long term substance use, medical frailty, and are marginalized in many other ways. They do so using a Housing First model and a Harm Reduction approach to service.

P A T H WAY S T O H O U S I N G P A . O R G

Pathways has an 85%+ housing

retention rate with people previously thought to be non-compliant and unable to be housed by traditional systems.

2. Animal Lovin’ ACCT, Philly the Animal Care and Control Team, is the region’s

AC C T P H I L LY . O R G

largest animal care and control service provider, serving the City of Philadelphia. ACCT Philly manages the city’s animal shelter facility in North Philadelphia handling nearly 30,000 animals, from dogs and cats, to small animals, reptiles, birds and wildlife, annually.

ACCT Philly’s mission is to provide shelter, care and life saving efforts for homeless, abandoned, and abused animals and protect the health,

safety and welfare of the citizens of Philadelphia, providing a benefit to all of the citizens of the City regardless of race or economic status.

3. Love for Women Restoring women from trafficking. For freedom.

For life. Forever.

Sex trafficking is the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a

person for the purpose of a commercial sex act.

N O R T H S TA R I N I T I AT I V E . O R G

All too often rescue does not mean freedom. For a woman being trafficked, the odds of being rescued are only 1 out of 100. Those who are rescued often find themselves at emergency, domestic violence or homeless shelters, none of which address the unique needs of trafficking survivors.

Because these shelters are temporary, countless women who have been rescued from sex trafficking will have no where to turn once back on the streets, and it is likely that they will fall back into a life of sexual enslavement or exploitation.

North Star Initiative is on a mission to change that. Operating Lancaster County’s first restoration home for survivors of sex trafficking, The Harbor is providing a safe haven for women who need the psychological, physical, emotional and spiritual care that they deserve.

4. Love for the Hurting

NAMI is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness.

Offered in thousands of communities across the United States through NAMI State Organizations and NAMI Affiliates, their education programs ensure hundreds of thousands of families,

NAMI.ORG

individuals and educators get the support and information they need.

NAMI advocates for people with mental illness and their families and provides volunteer leaders with the tools, resources and skills necessary to save mental health in all states.

NAMI runs a toll-free HelpLine that allows them to respond personally to hundreds of thousands of requests each year, providing free information and support—a much-needed lifeline for many.

They lead public awareness events and activities, including Mental Illness Awareness Week and NAMI Walks, successfully fighting the stigma and encouraging understanding. NAMI works with reporters on a daily basis to make sure our country understands how important mental health is.

5. Love Beyond Borders Neema is a US Non-profit and Community Based Organization in Kenya providing skills training, counseling and discipleship to vulnerable young women from Kitale and surrounding villages.

NEEMAPROJECT.ORG

The students are trained to become

certified dress makers and tailors through a rigorous educational and national certification process. Training encompasses all aspects of the craft from sewing machine mechanics and repair, to dressmaking and tailoring theory and

practical application. In addition, Neema has a residential program required during the first year in the program. Each young woman and her child are provided with a safe home environment, clean water, food, and medical care - so they can get the most out of the restoration and training program. A house mother lives onsite to provide counseling and to teach the girls how to care for themselves and their children.

The young women at Neema come from situations where they have experienced some level of rejection, extreme poverty, abuse, or other trauma. Neema believes that each individual life is significant and that through restoration and education we will see transformation in the heart of each young woman, in her family, and in her community.

This organization is extremely personal to Tessa as she travels each year to photograph for the organization.

Day Of 1. Make sure there is natural light in the room where the bride will be getting ready (window light). This makes a WORLD of difference in your images. I promise!

2. If possible, try to have all bridal details together before the photographer arrives. (Dress, jewelry, shoes, bouquet, garter, veil, etc) This will make the detail shots more efficient.

3. Keep the area near the window free of trash, bags, snacks, etc. This will be where the bride will be putting on her dress. (We don’t need any Aquafina bottles in our bridal portraits:).

4. Allow more time than you think you need to get ready. It’s better to be safe than RUSHED! 5. Relax and have fun. You’re getting MARRIED!!

E-Session 1. Your session comes standard with two outfits. One outfit is normally on the dressier side and one outfit is more relaxed and casual.

2. Coordinating doesn’t mean “matching”. Wearing the same color in a different shade is actually more ideal than trying to find the EXACT color.

3. If one of you is wearing something with a lot of color and pattern, sometimes it’s best to have the other person wear a neutral.

4. This is just an idea. Take it or leave it! Some couples plan their attire to coordinate with their wedding day so that their Save The Dates match the wedding theme and decor.

5. Don’t over think it!

6. Make sure you are equal when it comes to how formal your attire is. If the partner a is wearing a little black dress…. partner b probably shouldn’t be in shorts and tennis shoes.

7. Don’t be afraid to be yourself and wear something that is unique to you. If you have a unique style, be sure to show it off.

8. If you’re wearing plaid, the bigger the better. Larger plaid photographs better than tiny little checkered patterns. It would be better to have a solid dress shirt than a shirt with teeny tiny patterns. The camera can’t pick those tiny patterns up from far away and that can sometimes result in Chromatic Aberration.

9. Accessorize! Scarves, necklaces, belts….They can add so much to an outfit.

10. Last but not least, wear attire that is flattering to your figure and your skin tone. It seems like common sense but everyone is guilty of breaking this rule. We all know that everyone has certain things that look GREAT on them and certain things that aren’t really made for them. If you don’t like the way you look in something on a day-to-day basis, you’re not going to love it in your images. If you’re self conscious about your legs, don’t wear a mini-skirt. If you’re self-conscious about your arms, it’s probably not smart to wear those strapless or sleavless tops.

Bottom line, make sure you wear something that you’re comfortable in. Sure, we’re going to teach you how to pose in super flattering ways, but you’ll love your images so much more if you wear an outfit that you’re comfortable and CONFIDENT in.

Confidence photographs well!

Golden Hour Golden Hour: sometimes called the “magic hour”, is roughly the first hour of light after sunrise, and the last hour of light before sunset. During these times the sun is low in the sky, producing a soft, diffused light which is much more flattering than the harsh midday sun. AKA: BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

TIPS: 1. Make sure to check when the sunset is before scheduling your ceremony start time. (Send us an email if you need a suggestion) 2. If you are considering a later ceremony and will be left with very little sunlight afterwards, consider doing a first look to minimize the need for light after the ceremony.

You will have the option to add a golden hour or dramatic light portrait session during your reception (depending on light and weather). Once your guests are fed and happy, we will steal you away to top off the day’s images with some EPIC additions.

Help us help you...

Every photographer has their own style and we want to make sure we capture why you chose US! We have created multiple boards from dozens of weddings for you to create a Mood Board from (you can also pin directly from our blog). This helps us understand the imagery that draws

your eye. While our style says the same, we can cater the mood of how we shoot.

Creating a Mood Board is simple: 1. Pick 10-20 images 2. > 80% from our Pinterest Board and Blog 3. < 20% from other Photographers 4. Come up with one sentence each of what draws you to the image 5. Email us the board! (accompanied with the write up from step 4) We’re not looking to assemble a shot list (trust us, we will take care of all aspects of your day), what we are looking to achieve is what mood you like best.

That first LOOK.

Tessa Marie Images is absolutely incredible. There truly aren’t words to describe how wonderful working with Tessa and her team is. Tessa is incredibly professional and personable - she felt like a close friend from the moment we met her, and treated us so warmly, was so kind, and answered all of my insane email questions (I had a lot!). She even met with us to practice posing before our wedding (which was INCREDIBLY helpful). She is a blast to be around - we had such an amazing time when we did our engagement photos and they were beautiful, and the wedding photos were so much. better. which I didn’t think was even possible! During the wedding itself, Tessa and her second shooter Jenessa were just spectacular. I heard from so many of our family and friends that our photographers were fantastic, so nice, so professional. They breezed through our huge family portraits at epic speed and got all the shots during the wedding we could have ever wanted and more - my husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera, and Tessa made us both feel incredibly comfortable and you can just see that in each photo - we look like ourselves in our happiest moments and that’s an incredible gift to have captured. There were some where I was legit blown away by how amazing we both looked - and what intimacy she captured with such grace. I cannot recommend Tessa enough. I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of photographers professionally and personally, and Tessa is by far the best, by a landslide. We felt cared for and never worried for a second about the photos - which is an AMAZING thing to not have to worry about - and she by far exceeded our expectations. Do not wait. Call her right now!

100% don’t regret not wasting another minute looking. Tessa was absolutely amazing to work with and I knew it from the first meeting. If you are looking for a photographer that is professional yet extremely personable, high energy, striving for the highest quality and someone with a beautiful personality, I would stop looking as well, because she has it all. And her assistant Jenessa is a perfect match to her and they were a dream to work with. They both have an artistic eye that makes for amazing pictures. Tessa knows exactly how to get a perfect

As a former Global Head of Marketing for a large financial services firm responsible for throwing lavish events, I wanted to make sure that no detail of my wedding day was left unattended or undocumented. Tessa came highly recommended by several different people at my Philadelphia based church who had Tessa shoot events for them or knew of her talent through word of mouth. After evaluating various photographers and comparing their online portfolios and in person presentations my now husband and I decided to go with Tessa Marie Images. Tessa and her accompanying staff members were professional from the onset of our relationship to the end. Not only is the quality of Tessa’s photographs top-notch but her capability to embrace technology to efficiently and aesthetically disseminate the photographs in a timely and organized manner is unparalleled. Tessa documents her shoots by use of a blog, shares sneak peek photos on Facebook shortly after the wedding and delivers all of the final photos on a secure web portal that can also be viewed by all guests. My husband and I were very pleased with the services that we received leading up to our wedding, on the day of our wedding and our after wedding shoot. I highly recommend Tessa to any brides to be.

- Greg & Wendy

Where do I even begin with Tessa!? If you are looking for a wedding photographer, stop now, look no further, you have found her! If photography is anywhere near the top of your wedding priority list, Tessa is who you need. First of all, you will not find a vendor sweeter, more personable, easy to work with or quick to respond. The quality she provides in attitude and professionalism alone is worth it – but the insanely beautiful quality of her work is icing on the cake. Before I even knew my husband, I knew Tessa was who I wanted as my wedding photographer because her photographs so beautifully capture the personality and essence of every couple she works with. She focuses on what is important to you and your spouse but is also very sensitive to family dynamics and an expert at handling competing personalities. She also can move and coordinate large groups like a conductor with an orchestra. I

will never stop being so incredibly thankful for the photographs of my wedding day that Tessa captured – we will treasure them for decades to come <3

I am a wedding planner, along with my business partner Erica. We had the pleasure of working with Tessa and her second shooter Victoria and they were absolutely amazing. Such a

calming force throughout the day for the bride and groom and we repeatedly commented throughout the day that the wedding was going off flawlessly! That was due to the wonderful opportunity to collaborate with such professional

photographers. Not to mention that the photos are absolutely beautiful! Thanks

Tessa!!

Should we have an unplugged ceremony?

YES.

You don’t have to have an entirely unplugged wedding from start to finish. Your ceremony is the perfect time to ask guests to put their phones away and enjoy the moment. You can then make it clear, by arranging for your priest/celebrant/officiant/MC to make an announcement at the beginning and end of the ceremony. This allows your guest to fully enjoy the moment as well as allowing us to properly document the ceremony without having to worry about working around other cameras or phones.

Whats the big deal?

Simply put, an unplugged ceremony means your professional photos wont be compromised. It breaks our hearts when the bride is coming down the aisle and a guest feels she MUST get the shot and steps in front of our lens. We work very hard at our craft and are confident that our images will be better than that one captured. PLUS, a wedding ceremony is a sacred thing. It is so important that your guests experience it as witnesses rather then feeling they need to document every moment.

O k a y s o I g e t t h e c e r e m o ny, b u t w h a t a b o u t t h e r e s t o f t h e d a y ?

We don’t have a problem with guests taking pictures throughout the day and sharing them later on with the couple. We know we can’t be everywhere at once and there are candid moments that are fun to grab. If we are guests at a wedding, you better believe we’ll snap a few fun photos on our phones.

Please do keep in mind that In your contract, it states that we are the exclusive photographers. If you have a family member, friend etc. who you know LOVES bringing their professional camera equipment everywhere, please remind them that they are welcome to grab any candids but to refrain from feeling the need to document the formalities (ceremony, couple session, toasts etc.).

But how will they see the images?

Remind your guests that you will have a pretty gallery with all of the wedding images for their viewing and sharing purposes! Also, you get a HUGE sneak peek within 2 weeks of your wedding day, so you wont have to wait long for a look at the professional shots!

We LOVE traveling! We serve the PA, NJ & DE areas within 60 miles of our studio in Philadelphia (Vicki’s base) or Lancaster (Tessa’s base), at no additional cost. Beyond that, we charge $.95 per mile to cover my added expenses as well as additional housing if needed.

(120 total miles of traveling is included for weddings and 60 miles is included for e-sessions) We also create custom packages for destination weddings.

HOW MANY IMAGES CAN WE EXPECT IN OUR FINAL GALLERY? It can vary, but typically an average 8 hour day (without a second photographer) results in up to 900 final images, with a second photographer is up to 1,100 final images and with a 10 hour day resulting in up to 1,300 final images. All of these images go through an extensive color correcting and editing process. Additional image requests may result in editing fees. You can be sure the final images you

DO YOU RE TOUCH E VERY PHOTO? There is additional retouching done to all couple photos as well as various parts of the day, as needed. Each photo is color-corrected, but additional retouching requests may result in a extra charges (case by case basis - cost per image).

IS THERE A DISCOUNT IF WE DON’ T DO THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION? We do highly recommend taking advantage of the e-session. This allows us to work together before the wedding and get to know each other a bit more! The engagement session is complimentary with both Tessa’s gold and platinum packages as well as Vicki’s deluxe and the removal of this service does not affect price.

H O W LO N G D O W E H AV E TO O R D E R O U R A L B U M ?

Album designs must be completed and printed within one year of your wedding date. The first round of proofs is presented at your viewing party. You then have three months to meet in person or virtually to make any desired changes. If no changes are requested within the three month window, we will print and deliver the album as is.

H O W L O N G W I L L I T TA K E T I L L W E S E E O U R P H O T O G R A P H S A F T E R O U R W E D D I N G ?

A select few will be posted to our blog and social media within 10 days of your wedding. From there, the full set of the entire day’s images will be posted to your personal online gallery within 7-9 weeks of your wedding date. If you have an album ordered, your first proof will be sent your way with further instructions.

W H Y T H E WA I T ?

Think of it this way, if you want food fast...you go to McDonalds. It may fill you up for the time being, but we all know...it’s junk. If you want a delicious experience, you go to a five-star restaurant. We take pride in the delivery of each and every one of our weddings and do a ton of editing and retouching for each wedding experience. Trust us, we are working as hard as we can to get the images back to you in a timely fashion but we don’t want to compromise quality for a quick turn-around time.

Your images are sized for printing anything up to an 13x19. We want you to be able to make as many small prints for friends and family as you want, but larger display calls for additional attention to detail and higher printing standards. You will be able to place orders for larger pieces both during the post-wedding viewing consultation and through an online gallery.

W H AT I S A N O N L I N E G A L L E R Y ?

Your online gallery will be availble for at least six months after you recieve the link. This resource allows an easy way to share your images to anyone who may want to print your images, especially helpful with family. The gallery is also great for personal printing. The quality is excellent. You will still be able to order prints, through us, after your gallery is taken down.

Typically, you will recieve your

ordered images within one week.

There is a $500 additional fee for any weddings that take place on a holiday.

DO WE OWN THE RIGHTS TO THE PHOTOS? The digital images created by Tessa Marie Images, remain the property of Tessa Marie Images. but if your purchased package includes a wedding flash-drive you do own the personal rights. The supplied files are for personal, non-commercial use only. While we highly recommend printing through the gallery, the flash drive does allow you to print through other resources (but PLEASE no Target

or Walgreens! You’ve paid for high quality photos, which means you need high-quality prints. )

Every image that gets ordered in person or through your personal online gallery is approved by Tessa Marie Images, and goes through an additional retouching, color correction and sharpening process, in order to ensure that every image that goes out is up to the standard you would expect and ready to be hung on your wall. The longevity of the prints, canvases, albums and other products you order from us are guaranteed not to yellow or fade for 100 years. After your gallery is taken down, we would suggest using MPIX.COM, as their prices are competitive, quality is much better than a drug store, and shipping is fast.
