Where on earth do we begin?! Rob & Kristen Tesar were our all-day wedding photographers, and they were perfect. They were everything we had been looking for, hoping for, and crossing our fingers for, in our wedding photographers, and then way..., way more. They captured things and created things we can barely put into words, but since we've worked with them, we'll give it our best shot!
Rob & Kristen are wonderful people, seasoned professionals, and brilliantly talented Artists. That's artists with a capital A. We sent over a laundry list of requested shots (trust me, it was long!), and they captured every one of those with ease. But the photos we remember the most, the photos everyone remembers, the ones we will cherish for a lifetime, are the types of photos that you say, "Never in a million years would I have thought to capture that. Never would I think to find that lighting, use that angle. Never could I be in that many right places at the right time for that many hours." This is photojournalism at its best. This is photojournalism that transports the viewer of every photo into the event itself. This is photojournalism that captures the essence of a moment; all the feelings, emotion, and energy behind a shot, not just the shot itself. The composition, lighting, geometry, angle, everything is absolutely stunning in Rob and Kristen's work.
We had initially found a different photographer months before our wedding. But something kept nagging us, as we approached the big day, telling us we knew we were missing something with the photographers. We were missing that element of magic that we knew our wedding photographer had to have. So we went back to the drawing board, spent hours upon hours searching all over the state of North Carolina for anyone who might have that magic. The second we found the Tesars, we knew we had struck gold. The magic was evident in their portfolio, and in our first conversation with them. It was a gut feeling, we followed it, and we really can't begin to express how grateful and fortunate we feel to have found them. We will never be able to thank Rob & Kristen enough. They were perfect!
