We reached out to some former photo jobs. Here’s what they said.

“We could not have asked for a better experience on our wedding day. Tia’s kindness and professionalism shone throughout our entire wedding day. The photos turned out beautiful and perfectly captured the greatest moments.“

“Anyone with children knows the struggle: It’s a holiday and you just want to get a cute seasonal picture for the family album. Even just one where the baby isn’t crying or looking away would be a miracle. Not only did Tia get the perfect holiday picture, she got a whole album worth of beautiful photos that captured our one year old’s blossoming personality. She was so patient and kind. Our little guy was having so much fun with her and the finished products were so natural and frame-able as a result. Thank you, Tia!!“

“My family started using Tia years ago for holiday and special occasion photography. She has a wonderful personal style to her portraits that no doubt comes from the way she connects with kids during her sessions. Our experience together goes back over a decade to when my oldest was an infant and includes many milestones along the way. she manages to be professional while still engaging and adapting to each subject in a way that captures more than just a simple image. Tia has an incredible skill for capturing the moment.“
