Hey, I'm Tessa

In case you don’t know me… Hi! Welcome. I’m Tessa and I am an elopement + intimate wedding photographer. I was been based out of Asheville, NC for about 8 years, and have since gotten married, moved to SC and will continue photographing a select few weddings in Asheville that flow with my passion and my vibe. For the most part though, we will be photographing families, seniors, engagements, etc. in South Carolina. My heart will always be in those Blue Ridge Mountains!


I love adventure and traveling around the world. I know. What a cliche thing to say. But really… I love adventures. I love finding a new town, a new mountain range and exploring with my husband.


My life goal is to own a large farm and build Airbnbs-- A Frames, domes, tree houses. Anything fun for families to get away and spend some time unplugged with their kiddos. We love heading out with our kids and spending time hiking, playing UNO, and killing some S'mores!

What Clients Say

Sarah + Mike


Tessa did an absolutely phenomenal job photographing our wedding. We are a bit of a funky group of people with some off kilter humor and she fit right in, such a wonderful personality. She was always willing to step in and help, even in areas outside of her scope. You can tell she truly wanted us to have the perfect day. The photos she captured were priceless and looked right out of a magazine. I'm so lucky to have chosen Folk + Wayfarer to photograph our wedding!
