Hey hey! My name is Tamra and I’m a wedding, couples, and portrait photographer based out of Pensacola, FL! I love a sunset, long walks on the beach with a coffee in hand, and movie nights at home. I believe the simplest moments are the most special and nothing is too plain to be treasured.
I frequently photograph in 30A, Destin, Orlando, Tampa, and St. Augustine- but have also spent quite a bit of time in Arizona, New York, Massachusetts, Oregon, California, Georgia, and North Carolina (so far). I’d love to go anywhere your love story takes you! So chat with me about your destination weddings + elopements.
I have been a hopeless romantic my entire life and love using photography as a way to capture genuine love and the genuine self. I believe one of the bravest things a person can be is vulnerable. Being on the other side of the camera is one of the most vulnerable places you can be and my goal is to make that a comfortable experience for you! The number one comment I get before a session is “Please pose me and tell me what to do with my hands!”. It is super important to me that at no point during the shoot do you feel “posed” or inorganic. I want you to interact with your environment, interact with the camera, or interact with your partner to get a genuine shot. I love getting to meet and work with my clients to capture moments that are truly authentic to them.
It’s important to know that I will always center my work around you. Photography to me means capturing the authentic now. If that sounds good to you- let’s talk!

About Tamra
my why
I am in love with authenticity. I am all about capturing the moments that are real. I think a perfectly posed photo is just fine. but I want to do better for you. I want to capture you laughing and interacting with your passions whether that’s a person or a place. There are a million places to take photos and a million ways I could pose you, and they’ve all been done before, but what will make your photos authentic is YOU. Photography is special because it tells a story. I want the ones we tell together to be true to you and your soul.
my loves
I am married to the love of my life, Cody, and am a dog mom to the sweetest yellow lab, Ophelia. I wouldn’t be where I am, or in this field today without his support. We also recently welcomed our first baby and son, Lennon. I’m officially a working mama!
Apart from my family, I love hiking, traveling, exactly two cups of coffee every morning, sunrises and sunsets, a late-night drive with the perfect playlist, a Sunday at home with vinyl o, and the feeling of getting a film roll back.
my soul
It’s guaranteed I will be the first one to cry at your wedding. Or at a movie. Or maybe even a song. I am definitely a feeler and throughout my life I have learned to embrace that part of myself instead of seeing it as a weakness. I love being around the people I care about. I will never say no a new adventure. I want to live everywhere I travel to. I give 100% of myself to everything I do.
