I'm Tessa
Or as my family likes to call me, Teaspoon! I grew up in Northern MN on the great shores of Lake Superior. I was raised around vast and wild beauty and have continued to see that same beauty in the people I meet! I work as a full time RN, but I have always had a love for this art. I am a devoted Catholic, who loves the Lord and all He has created, and I am a lover of romance and things that inspire us for something greater than ourselves. My first camera showed up at my doorstep on an ordinary day. One of my cousins had heard that I loved to take pictures, shipped his old canon to me, and I used it for many years tinkering and learning. My heart swells at that generous act that has become a source of joy for me to share with others! I have an eye for things that feel cozy, warm, and detailed, and I especially like to make this represented in my photos. I look forward to hearing from you!
