Choosing a wedding photographer is a huge decision, and we take it just as seriously as you do. We invest in your love story from the beginning so we can capture wedding images that are an authentic reflection of you. Plus, we want to help you figure out this whole wedding planning business. So you get a free consultation and wedding timeline template from us, even before you book.
Uncomfortable in front of the camera? Us too. We are all-stars at making you feel like royalty on your wedding day. When you are comfortable and enjoy the process, we can create magical, unique wedding images. So we use playful, creative prompts, to get you and your lover moving and laughing for real. None of that "now everyone laugh" stuff.
With Adelaide Street, you have the choice of up to 8 hours of wedding day coverage, with the option to add a second shooter, wedding albums, prints, USB drives, and more. Our style is slightly moody but with bright colors, and we take a mixture of candids and contemporary-style portraiture with a strong emphasis on real emotion.
Inflation sucks but that doesn't mean your wedding photographers should, too. We offer monthly payment plans to make securing your dream wedding possible.
Wedding photography is a chance to revisit and share some of your most special memories far into the future. Our goal is to not only help you have an incredible wedding experience, but to bring those emotions flooding back for every anniversary to come.

Owner | Lead Photographer & Videographer
Adelaide Street was my childhood street growing up in a small town in Tennessee. I have fond memories of sunny afternoons in the backyard, riding in a little red wagon down the road to my grandma's house to play with my cousins. When I started photography full time in 2018, I wanted to cultivate an experience that felt like being at grandma's house. And I guess for me that means showering my couple's with love, snacks, photos of my cat, and lots of old lady jokes.I want you to feel actually, truly known and well-tended to. All our team members have a passion for people and can offer up all the Southern hospitality you could possibly handle.I can't wait to create an amazing experience for you and your partner. Just because you are you.

Working with Tessa was a perfect experience. She took our engagement photos and did photography at the wedding — she was warm, easy to work with, quick to respond, and was *excellent* at finding the right angles and moments during the wedding. We had so much fun working with her and absolutely loved the photos.

Tessa made my wedding experience so easy. I was super stressed out with everything else but she made sure her work wasn’t one of them. She is extremely professional and helpful and has an AMAZING memory when it comes to family. Everything I told her I wanted, we did and she made it work. My husband and I aren’t photo taking people, so she helped us get comfortable and even told us how to pose when we weren’t sure. Tessa also helped come up with a timeline for the day which took a lot of stressful planning off of my shoulders. Everyone who has seen the sneak peaks so far has been in awe of how beautiful her work turned out. I have already been recommending her to anyone I know getting married. If I have to say one thing to convince you to go with her, it’s that the money is worth it. Every single penny. She was absolutely amazing and I wouldn’t have picked anybody else! Thank you for making my wedding day special <3

Me and my now husband loved Tessa! I’m not too comfortable in front of a camera and she gave me and my husband the confidence to take really awesome pictures. Her visions for good photos and the quality she provides is top notched and I cannot recommend her enough!

We are beyond thrilled with the work of Adelaide Street Photo + Film for our wedding! From our first consultation to the final delivery of our photos and video, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.
Tessa took our engagement photos and we were absolutely blown away - we immediately booked her for the wedding. She is so funny and sweet, it feels like you’re just hanging out with a friend (a friend with a camera who actually takes great photos of you).
Tessa captured every moment of our wedding beautifully, from candid shots of our guests to the most intimate details of our ceremony. The emotions and joy of our day truly shine through in each image. The video highlights were stunning, perfectly edited, and truly captured the vibes of our celebration.
Tessa and her team were incredibly professional yet personable, making everyone feel at ease. They all have a wonderful eye for composition and creativity, and we couldn't have asked for better results.
We are so grateful to have these amazing memories documented, and we wholeheartedly recommend Adelaide Street Media to any couple looking for talented and passionate professionals!

I booked Tessa and her team for photography and videography for my wedding. Her team showed up organized and ready to capture all of the shots we requested and then some. I was worried about not having enough time after our ceremony to get all of the shots we wanted, but Tessa made it happen in record time, all while remembering everyone's names and all around being a delight to work with. We received our sneak peeks a few days after the wedding and cleary she has gone above and beyond. Highly recommend Tessa!

Tessa was simply incredible! My fiancé and I had a destination wedding, and we faced quite a few challenges along the way. Even after finalizing our services and vendors, there always seemed to be some nuanced decision that needed our immediate attention, especially in the hectic days leading up to the event. This added unnecessary confusion and stress to a day we had eagerly anticipated for years.
However, Tessa was a true exception to this daunting experience. She guided us through every step of the planning process, going above and beyond to ensure we felt understood and supported. On the big day, her professionalism and calm but lively demeanor alleviated as much stress as possible, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in making our wedding a dream come true! And I haven't even mentioned the pictures! We knew we where in for a treat when we got our initial "Sneak Peak" shots just a few days following the event. We where absolutely blown away! Excellent professional service every step of the way and absolutely gorgeous photography. We couldn't be happier.

I’m so grateful we chose Tessa as our photographer! We had a pretty rushed timeline and Tessa worked with us to make sure we got everything we wanted.

Tessa was wonderful! She knew exactly how to run things when it comes to weddings and wasn’t afraid to get the job done. I would book her again in a heartbeat! She was willing to do everything we wanted and super knowledgeable about different shots and what looks great.

TLDR: she is great, and was very helpful as a disabled person needing some flexibility.
Tessa & her team photographed & recorded my wedding last weekend, and they were a dream to work with. I am chronically ill & so I knew on my wedding day I could not be running around to different locations for photos, and Tessa was extremely mindful of that fact & made sure I was doing ok through the whole process. I was worried my limited mobility would mean my photos would be a little boring, but she's already sent a handful of pictures over for a sneak peek & they are GORGEOUS.
Tessa is a true professional but also someone who clearly loves what she does, which I think really shows in the quality of her work.

Tessa and Jess were ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! They were both so kind and helpful, and not to mention incredibly talented. Getting ready for the ceremony, they were both so kind to me and my family and were so willing to help! They made posing for photos easy and fun. They were both so incredibly fun and sweet, and will definitely be my go to photographers for everything now!!!! Thank you both so much! :)

We booked Adelaide Street Media for both photography and videography. Tessa's style fit exactly what we were looking for to capture our wedding. We initially met and had a conversation to see if it would be a good fit. We found Tessa to be very easy to work with and talk to and booked with her right away. Our engagement session went incredibly smoothly and the pictures turned out beautiful. She is really good about prompting scenarios to get pictures where poses don't look forced. It made it easy for us to get good pictures even though we were a little unsure and uncomfortable at first. The website she uses to share the photos is super easy to use and share with family and gives you the ability to order prints straight from the source or download if that is your preference. Prior to the wedding, we completed a questionnaire to help plan and ensure that we got all the shots we wanted for our big day. The day of our wedding, the team was super on top of getting everything done and corralling the individuals who needed to be in the pictures. The team was also very flexible with the schedule to work around the weather when it was raining on and off. Even though we had cloudy weather, it made the mood of the pictures and poses that were suggested that much better and now I would not have wanted it any other way. Following the wedding, Tessa was quick to send a sneak peek of photos and the video trailer. Everything has turned out even better than we could have hoped for. I cannot recommend Adelaide Street Media enough.

Tessa and Adelaide Street Media absolutely exceeded my expectations. We did our engagement and wedding pictures with her and she has a way of making you feel so comfortable even if you are shy in front of a camera. She brings out the goofiness in you which makes for the most amazing pictures. The way she edits the pictures makes for the most stunning shots. I would hire her a million more times. 10/10!!!!

Tessa was incredible all the way through the wedding process! She met with us at the beginning and got to know who we are as people and our true heart for the wedding. She was very organized and detailed and made sure to get all the info she needed about our day-of schedule to make sure everything went smoothly. We just got our photos back, too, and we are BLOWN away! Tessa is kind, professional, talented, and has a great turnaround time for photos! Highly recommend!!

Tessa worked with my fiancé to capture the proposal and even included an engagement photo session right after. She does a fantastic job of making you feel comfortable and beautiful to capture those authentic moments of laughter and love. She is easygoing and has no shortage of photo ideas to recommend, and she also welcomes any ideas you may have. She aims to deliver beyond your expectations.
Her personality is easygoing, light, and cheery. She makes it known that these photos are about YOU and showcasing who you are. Overall, she is wonderful company and an incredibly talented photographer.
