Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I have over 15 years experience shooting all over the country, with numerous clients ranging from celebrities and magazines, to special needs families and adoptions. I LOVE my work and I LOVE my client family. I shoot weddings, families, children, documentary work and more. Almost all of my work involves travel or locations outside of my local area, so never hesitate to ask about travel options. Portrait sessions average 595.00 for one hour sessions, and wedding session prices range from 1995 for elopements to 4995.00 for full multi-photographer wedding days depending on the needs of the client. (Price quotes customized to client needs of course) The connections and people are what I love most about what I do and it is an honor to meet and work with so many amazing human beings. I am so blessed to have so many people ask me to capture their special moments!

Tara did an amazing job for our unique wedding. She literally went the extra mile (a couple actually) to capture our wedding to the last moment. The samples she sent were great and we can't wait to see the final product!

Tara was warm, creative and thoughtful about us as subjects and the photos that would best express our relationships. She spent so much time making sure she got the best shots. She also was also so collaborative but also knew when to take charge. Our family highly recommends her.

Tara is so amazing! She is a wonderful photographer and makes taking the photos fun. She's extremely talented, and can take many pictures in a short amount of time. I would recommend her to everyone and plan to use her for any more photography needs!

Tara is absolutely amazing! She is so talented and really good at directing you and making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I am a videographer myself (and have done a few weddings) and she is so professional at what she does-she stays on top of everything! She captured all the specific photos I asked for on our wedding day and she is just so fun to be around!! Thank you so much Tara :)

Tara was the photographer for our small wedding and was wonderful to work with. She was organized, punctual, professional, kind, and had great advice and creative ideas for the photos! She covered all of the important moments in a limited amount of time and was very thorough and seemed to notice all of the details. We love her previous work and can't wait to see how she documented our memories!
