Out here, life doesn't slow down for photos.

Livestock still need moving, the kids are still running all over the place and the pets will absolutely photobomb. That's not a problem to work around, it's exactly the story worth keeping.


I create sessions that have you feeling comfortable, not camera-ready, so whatever season of life you're in right now, that's what gets kept.

The Sessions

Every session is a little different, but the approach is always the same: get comfortable, forget the camera's there, and see what happens.  Each session page has packages, pricing and a proper look at my work, so you know exactly what you're getting into.

Kind words

I fell in love with Tessa's photography when I saw how relaxed and natural her clients looked in their sessions. We booked her extended family package, and I'm so glad that we did. Our entire gallery is beautiful, but my real favourite shots are the candids. The ones halfway through a cheeky joke, faces crinkled with laughter. Tessa captured the love and the chaos and everything my family is, and I cannot thank her enough for it!

We are so glad we chose Tessa to capture our maternity photos during this special time. Tessa makes it so easy, giving little directions to help us not look so awkward in front of the camera. The gallery has exceeded our expectations. The photos are absolutely stunning! Well worth every cent!

Kind words

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of working with Tessa, who beautifully captured not only the space but also the atmosphere here at LUXE. Not only did we have an amazing session together talking and bouncing through ideas, her talent truly speaks through her work. I highly recommend checking her out!

Hey, I'm Tessa,

Born and raised in Wandoan, right in the heart of cattle country. I've taken a few different paths since then, but picking up a camera again felt like coming home.


A session with me is about feeling comfortable, having a laugh, and being reminded that messy houses, wild kids, windblown hair and dust on boots are all part of the magic.

This season won't look like this forever.


The kids won't be this age again. Even the ordinary Tuesday afternoons have a way of slipping past before you think to hold onto them. If you've been thinking about booking a session, I'd love to be the one to do it.
