Tessa is a photographer shaped by the rolling blues of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where her eye for color and light first took root. With a background in design and an early love for Tumblr’s visual culture, she discovered photography as a way to tell stories through curation as much as through the lens itself. Her work blends golden-hour tones, lo-fi textures, and a spirit of experimentation that bridges digital and film. Today, she continues to explore photography as both craft and narrative, aiming to inspire others to create freely without needing the perfect tools.
