Boston & Massachusetts Wedding Photographer
Plenty of photographers know their way around a camera. Few know what to do with a nervous bridal party at 4pm and a missing groomsman (I got you).
I'm Teresa, and after a decade of weddings (plus a few Olympic Trials before that), I have become really good at both.
Can I tell you a secret? The camera is the easy part.
What I spend most of my energy on is making sure you feel comfortable, that your timeline is so solid your planner will want to steal it, that your families are wrangled with warmth and humor, and that when you look at your photos later, you feel like the best version of yourselves on the best day of your lives.
I have been in high-pressure, once-in-a-lifetime-moment situations for a long time.
I started photographing events in 2011. The Archery World Cup, U.S. Olympic Team Trials, events where there are zero re-dos and zero safety nets and every single second counts.
Somewhere along the way, I fell completely in love with weddings. And in 2014, I made them my focus.
The photojournalism background means I am never waiting for a moment to happen, I am already there when it does! The professional coaching certifications (yes, really) mean I know how to help you feel natural and genuinely yourself, even if your first instinct is to run every time someone points a camera at you.
Add ten-plus years of New England weddings and 300-plus couples later, and what you get is someone who has basically seen everything.
(Rain on the ceremony? Done it. Complex family dynamics? Handled it. Timeline that went sideways at noon? We recovered beautifully, I promise.)
inclusivity is not a checkbox for me
That means multicultural ceremonies with traditions I take the time to understand and honor. LGBTQIA+ couples who should never have to wonder whether their photographer will match their energy.
Families of every shape and configuration, welcomed without hesitation.
This is not something I added to my website because it sounded good. It is how I have always approached this work, and it shows up in every interaction from the first inquiry call to holding your wedding album in your hands.
Every couple deserves a photographer on their wedding day who is genuinely excited to be there with them, exactly as they are.
"Teresa quickly assuaged our fears. She was so happy and excited for us, it honestly made us forget that we were any different from any hetero normative couple."

A little more about the human behind the camera
I live just outside of Worcester, Massachusetts - close to Boston, the Berkshires, the Connecticut shore, and Rhode Island. And I am completely in love with New England in all its moody, gorgeous, unpredictable glory.
The fall foliage. The rocky coastlines. The old stone walls and the way late afternoon light hits a barn in the Berkshires. (I am also a big fan of my orange cat Enzo, a good playlist, and the kind of wedding reception where nobody wants to leave.)
I only take on a select number of weddings each year, which means when you book with me, you are not a name on a list. You get my full attention, from our first call all the way through to designing your album.
"When you book with Teresa it right away feels like you are working with a close friend you've had for your whole life."

Crowd Control & Family Diplomacy
I have the energy of a golden retriever, I will laugh at my own jokes before you do, and I will absolutely get a little misty during your vows even though I have seen hundreds of them. My cat, Enzo, does not help me edit photos, but he supervises.
A little more, for the curious:
I buy too many plants, anything with flowers (my plant collection has officially gotten out of hand😅). Yacht rock is always playing somewhere in my house! My family's Italian recipes are my specialty in the kitchen, and my grandparents' love story is still my favorite one. I share my home with my partner, Josh, who's also a talented photographer, so keep an eye out, you might spot him at your wedding too.
