Hi, It’s me! 🤍👋🏼
I realized it’s been a while since I’ve introduced myself around here.. probably something to do with me always being behind the camera & rarely in front! 😂 But with so many new faces joining my journey on here I figured it was time!
I’m the girl behind Tessa Makell Photography, based in Southern Utah! 📸 going on 16 years - I photograph families, couples, weddings, engagements, maternity sessions, seniors, and basically all the special seasons of life that deserve to be remembered!
A little about me outside of photography… I’m a wife to my best friend, a mama to two of the sweetest & wild little humans, and someone who is usually juggling a million things at once! 😂 Between raising kids, keeping up with activities, working on projects, and running a photography business, life is rarely boring around here! I love sunsets, camping by a fire , a weekend getaway away , an ice cold Coke or red-bull , good music & an adventure! 🤙🏻
One of my favorite things about photography is getting to freeze moments that might feel ordinary right now but will mean everything someday. The little hands, the giggles, the way your babies look at you, the family chaos, and those moments you wish you could bottle up and keep forever. 🤍
I’ll always get you those beautiful pictures looking at the camera posed & all but I’m just as excited about the in between ones where you’re laughing, snuggling your babies, or simply just loving on your people!
So if you’re new here, WELCOME! 🥹🤍 I’m so happy you found me! And if you’ve been here for a while, booked a session, or trusted me to photograph one of your biggest life moments, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your support means more than you know!
Now tell me… are you a new face around here, or have we been friends for a while? I’d love to hear from you in the comments & if I’ve photographed a session for you what kind?🫶🏼
With love,
Tess🤟🏻🤍
