philadelphia wedding photographer
Hi, I'm Tess Leslie
meet your philadelphia wedding photographer
I'm a wedding photographer currently splitting my time between Texas and Philadelphia. I am having fun falling in love with Philly as I document weddings and engagement photos around town. I bring the best of both worlds: 10+ years of experience as a seasoned professional and a fresh perspective on what makes Philadelphia so special. Go Birds!

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Tess.
"She made everything so easy and enjoyable (and I was really nervous about this part of our wedding!). And then when we got the photos back... holy moly. They are GORGEOUS. Tess completely understood our vision and captured our wedding perfectly. I tell everyone I know who is getting married how much I loved working with Tess, who is kind, patient, and just a joy to be around."

Tess was beyond amazing at our wedding.
"As someone who is a bit nervous around the camera, she made us both feel completely at ease and made the process so enjoyable. As a queer couple, she was incredibly considerate about making us feel comfortable and and seen. Could not recommend Tess enough. Her eye is incredible and we were thrilled with the final results."
