About Tamara Merri Photography
Tammy
I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.
I aim to tell YOUR story authentically. I'll never put you into a stuff pose that isn't "you". While I like to capture real events as they unfold, I also have no problem with stepping up and being a leader when it comes to organizing family and wedding party for photos. Couples have described me as bubbly, organized, "we feel like we've known her forever"! Interested in connecting and learning more?

Elopement
Peak pricing $2,000-15,500
Weddings don't have to be what they've always been. Trade the ballroom for an epic view. Trade florescent lights for a billion stars. Trade a walk down the aisle for a hike up a mountain. Trade a wedding for an elopement. The realization that you can break the mold and create a unique wedding day is so freeing. There are no "supposed to dos", rules to follow, or etiquette to abide by. I encourage you to create a kick ass day to represent who you are as a couple and what you value as a person.

I trust her completely!
Tammy is my number one, favorite photographer to work with and the only person who can actually help me relax on a wedding day. I can trust her completely. I never need to worry about where she is, if she's getting the shot, or if she's shooting enough variety. She knows exactly what she's doing from extensive experience and she treats weddings with the same gravity as if it were her own day. Some of my favorite images of all time are just that due to Tammy's ability to read a room and complete the story. She continually brings new skills and her own innovation into every event, which I love to keep up with on her social media. Tammy gets so many compliments in part due to her skill and professionalism, but also because of the energy and perfectionism she will bring to your day. I can't say enough great things about having Tammy as a photographer.
One of the easiest (and best) wedding decisions!
We had the pleasure of having Tammy shoot our engagement photos, as well as our entire wedding day. As many others have stated, we would highly recommend her for not only her gorgeous photos but for her relaxed and personable style. Throughout the entire process Tammy communicated with us to be sure she was giving us exactly what we were looking for in terms of style/structure. The day of our engagement shoot, we had unexpected weather but thankfully she was flexible and responsive in moving the time for our shoot to accommodate the unexpected rain. Despite the fact it was cold and rainy, she happily worked with us to get all (plus more) of the photos we were expecting. Between both our wedding and engagement shoots, Tammy did a fantastic job working in all of the ideas we had envisioned. We had to downsize our wedding and had plenty of unexpected restrictions due to Covid but Tammy continued to help support making our day special. We would recommend Tammy to anyone looking for beautiful, candid, relaxed yet fun photos and we look forward to future opportunities of working with her!
Acadia Elopement Dream Photographer
Tammy, there is not enough praise in this world for what you deserve for truly creating the most magical elopement day. From the moment we started talking, Tammy filled our imagination with ideas, plans and picture locations to help make our wedding special. She did not hesitate when we decided to elope in Acadia National Park and sent over research and location ideas of where to hold our ceremony. She was attentive to the details that were most important to us and really allowed us to create our perfect day. Not only did she help plan our elopement day but day of she arrived early and was able to help create the excitement and long lasting memories. With her creative eye, she found the most perfect spot for us to have our first look. With great skill, she professionally moved the wedding party along to be to stay true to the ceremony timeline and the National Park entrance time (which is a feat to coordinate 7 guests, a dog and a bus driver). With not having a wedding planner (or any guest focused on timeline) it was so helpful to have Tammy to take charge and gather the group. Lastly, but certainly not least, she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We dont normally enjoy being the center of attention, she had us move naturally and cued us to be confident in front of the camera. With her upbeat personality and lots of laughs, the pictures captured our excitement and love while we eloped. She didn’t hesitate for a second when we asked for our dog to be in almost every picture us and was able to capture. She read my mind as taking pictures from different angles and of the landscape around us. Thank you Tammy for making our dream surprise elopement a reality! Not only was it the most perfect day, but now we have pictures that capture the emotions and celebration of our wedding!
