I have been photographing weddings and lifestyle portraits for over five years, but my love for photography started long before that. Growing up, I was always the girl with a digital camera in hand—I even remember carefully arranging my stuffed animals and photographing them on a disposable camera (photo proof available upon request!).
As a Los Angeles native, my heart is deeply tied to this city. I’m endlessly inspired by golden hour and the way light transforms everything it touches. I am mesmerized by the way people connect and show love to one another. Together, those inspirations are the heart and soul of Tess Branker Photography.
My goal is to capture moments of love and joy in a way that feels natural, timeless, and true to you—creating photographs that become keepsakes you’ll treasure forever. The relationships I build with my clients mean the world to me, and I’m here to guide you through every step of the process. From answering questions to sharing helpful resources, my priority is making sure your wedding (or any photo session!) feels effortless and everything you’ve dreamed of.

All love stories are honored, respected, and celebrated here.
