Hello And Welcome

capturing the way it felt

East Coast Elopement + Micro-wedding photographer

DOCUMENTING YOUR STORY 

For as long as I can remember, I've been in love with books and how stories are created and not only created, but how they flow to create a beautiful representation of something in its entirety. To me, falling in love is a lot like getting your hands on the best book you've ever read. Before you know it, you're in way too deep, staying up past 3AM because you need to read just one more chapter. You want to get to the end, yet, capture every detail because you never want to forget what it felt like. Every stage of life to me is the exact same way and this is the way I approach photography. Whether we are documenting your engagement, wedding day, or the birth of your children, I strive to tell your story authentically, immersing myself in the moment with you so that you have a museum worthy archive of your life to look back on; remembering the way the moments felt. 

Wherever you are.

More About Tanner

The Love, Tanner Experience 

Let's Get Married!

My experience working with Tanner has been nothing other than extraordinary. Tanner flew into Seattle to do an engagement shoot as well as shoot our wedding and as soon as I met her, I knew that I could feel comfortable being myself around her without feeling judged. My husband and I were both nervous to have our picture taken and worried that we would feel too awkward and it would show in the pictures, but Tanner took all of that stress away as soon as we met her. She made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera with her light-heartedness and easy-going nature, and our pictures turned out better than I ever could have imagined. She embodies the definition of servitude when it comes to photography and making sure that you feel your best. She works with her clients and is so generous, making sure that you get everything that you wanted out of the session. She worked with me every step of the way to create a timeline that was ideal for us and recreate my vision and somehow make it even better. She was so helpful and gave me so much insight on making my wedding day as special as possible. As soon as we got our sneak peeks, my family and I were so emotional.

"Tanner has captured so many of the most meaningful moments in our lives. I am thankful to call her not only my photographer, but my friend as well. From the very beginning, she has made us feel comfortable and confident in front of her camera. The photos she creates feel so genuine to us. Every session with Tanner feels effortless as she guides you in a way that never feels overly posed, yet captures the most beautiful moments. We couldn't be more excited to have her be part of the most important day of our lives!!"
