Upstate New York 
Elopement and Micro Wedding Photographer

Emotional + Deeply Personal Love Stories

for the die-hard, unfiltered lovers.

Documented on digital + film.

You are a Free Spirited, Trendsetting Duo.
You don't want an everyday, cookie cutter wedding, now do yah?

You want iconic, real, and you for sure want to avoid standard "performances" that many have come to expect in a wedding day.

Staged moments, or directed poses just doesn't feel right to you. The best memories are the ones that happen in an instant, The "blink and you miss it" kind.

That's why I am here.
I'll never miss it, and as a result, you'll never forget it!


It's your wedding day, so have one that is true to you.

Let's Choose something a bit more against the grain:

An Epic Day
Epic locations
Just you and your partner
and ZERO Worries.

Not what is "expected" of you.

"She captured us, just as we were. It was so intimate, and real. Not once did we feel rushed around with a timetable."

Give no Fucks, 
and make Zero Apologies

There's only room in this dream come true for the two of you.

(and whoever you want with yah!)

If being pulled in every direction, stuck to a strict timetable, or performing cliche' or viral moments to appease your guest list sounds like a nightmare instead of a dream....babe, same.

You aren't wrong to feel that way

Over time, I've noticed couples rarely get to spend the majority of their wedding days actually ENJOYING it. And I don't just mean the remaining hours on the dance floor.

Your wedding day should be fully documented and honest-to-goodness uninterrupted, 

Unposed.
Unfiltered.
Uninterrupted.

Beacuse, real memories are documented, not "re-created" or directed.

I'm Tinara, and I'm based in Upstate NY just south of the Adirondack Park!  I'm thrilled you're choosing to prioritize your dream wedding day!

Adaptability is my "middle name". I creating space for a true to you wedding day experience that you will look back on as the best day ever ( so far!)

I specialize in a mix of lifestyle and documentary images that reflect your one of a kind experience without limitations. Creating the space for your memories to take place, as they are, without interruptions. 

 I can't wait to get to know all about what sets your soul on fire, and create this amazing experience!

I'm tinara!

Your Elopement photographer, Curator and Architect.

We had a tremendously fun day in the Adirondacks with Tinara. It was really great to be able to have our pick of the location we wanted, we chose Coney Mtn for the 360º Views. She really blew us away with the natural prompting she gave us, we really took in each little moment! It was so relaxing to just take it all in. It really was like having your best friend tag along for the ride, and take gorgeous photos of us! The photos are unreal. Each one feels like it transports us back to our elopement. We were laughing non-stop the entire day, I'd do this over and over again!"

Love film?

I do too!

Film has been a part of my work for the last few decades. It all started with a simple analog camera, a Black & White Film class, and one simple darkroom. I was hooked, and never let it go.

Years passed and now I offer Color and B&W Film in both 35mm and Medium Format hybrid with your gallery. 

Memories feel different on film, and I believe you deserve to have an even more nostalgic feel to the memories you will share together.
