Creating timeless images
through
classical old world lens
Editorial-inspired images invite you to savor every detail—the gifts you exchanged during your first look, the perfume that will always remind you of the day you said “I do”, and the crystal glasses you raised in celebratory toasts.
Create MAGIC
CAPTURING YOUR INCOMPARABLE ESSENCE
Hand-in-hand, you’ve explored Moroccan markets, Italian cathedrals, and French cafés. Now, you’re preparing for your greatest adventure yet! To mark the occasion of your marriage, you want photographs that are sophisticated, stylish, and significant.
Believing every carefully-selected detail deserves preservation, it’s important that you receive lasting images—the kind infused with a value that only increases over time.
As your photographer, Tamara's purpose is to translate your story in a way that’s undeniably representative of the journey you’ve shared…and remains that way for a lifetime.
Celebrate LOVE
CHRONICLE YOUR DAY
Every detail is documented. Speaking of details, it goes without saying that weddings can get hectic—but rest assured that the family pendant on your bouquet and the charger plates you so carefully color-matched will not go unnoticed by my camera.
In addition to my role as photographer, consider me your personal stylist. If your dress is not perfectly placed, I will move it. If your hair falls out of place, I will fix it. In short, I will do anything and everything I can to help you both feel like celebrities!
“Collaborating with Tamara is a satisfying experience in that the process is thoughtful and the outcome is rich. For fine art photography, Tamara is at the top of her field.”

Discover Each OTHER
SAVOR THE MOMENT
A portrait session is a high-touch, high-end experience that allows us to connect personally and ensure that you’re both completely relaxed on your wedding day.
I won’t say that I’ll become your best friend during our engagement shoot—after all, you already have one!—but I do promise to help you shake off any lingering camera-shyness and feel at ease in front of the camera.
I’m intentional about allowing engagement sessions to unfold at an unhurried pace, and keep my focus on capturing natural images filled with lots of laughter and genuine interaction.
Meet TAMARA
Let me introduce myself to you.
To me, both science and art play a role in the composition of refined wedding portraiture. Luckily, I have a background in both worlds along with a deeply rooted appreciation for travel, beauty, and fashion. I hold a PhD in Cancer Research from the University of Cambridge, UK — but I made the transition from being a scientist to a love story preservationist more than ten years ago.
Details have always mattered to me — fascination with the framework of cells simply shape-shifted into a passion for capturing people, moments, and emotions in all of their intricacies. I have always been a fashion lover; and it goes without saying that the years I spent working in a sterile laboratory environment only heightened my awareness of aesthetics and beauty.
I was originally born in Munich (Bavaria), but my husband and I split our time between Chicago, Denver & Munich. Whether I am photographing a wedding in America or anywhere in the world, I marry my decidedly European style with diverse love stories.
It is my purpose and my privilege to create eternal, tangible memories you’ll delight in returning to as the years go by.
xoxo
