Meet Terese who graduated from Steinbrenner High School…

IN HER OWN WORDS:

“I chose Theresa Marie because I didn’t want my pictures to look so staged and tacky like they do when you get them done in front of the screens. I had an amazing time and loved every part of it. I felt like a princess and was completely comfortable. Getting to meet Theresa Marie was my favorite part, we clicked right away and she made it so much fun! When I first saw my images, I was shocked! I couldn’t believe it was me, I looked amazing!

I wouldn’t change anything about my experience! I had so much fun! The only thing I would change would be having more time to take pictures because it was so much fun! I would tell other seniors how sweet and kind Theresa Marie is! She makes you feel comfortable right away and her pictures are amazing! It’s the best experience I’ve ever had!

Doing my senior pictures with Theresa Marie was the best thing I did all senior year! She made me feel so special and comfortable in front of the camera! My pictures turned out amazing and I know they’ll be something I will treasure forever! I wish I could do this again!”

Maddie :: Ohio Senior

Meet Maddie who came all the way from Ohio…

IN HER OWN WORDS:

"Coming from Ohio, we were hesitant to get my pictures taken really anywhere but our local area. But after some research, and a Florida vacation planned, Theresa Marie came into the picture and we took a change and it was well worth it! I knew the experience was going to be amazing once I walked into her office. From getting my makeup done, picking out outfits, driving to the beach and the pictures themselves, my parents and I were all so excited. My favorite part was taking pictures on the beach because that was a dream I’ve always had, to get my senior pictures done on a beach. It truly was a dream come true.

I was more than pleased when I saw my pictures. Theresa Marie captured my true personality and happiness in her pictures. I have never been so pleased with pictures of myself. I would not have changed anything about my experience. It all was flawless! I would recommend Theresa Marie to any parents or seniors, not only because she is a great photographer, but because of her personality. I think her personality was the thing that, after my pictures were over, my parents and I were so blown away by. It was meant to be that we picked her to take my senior pictures.

I knew nothing about photographers in the area since we came to Florida for a vacation. After hearing about Theresa Marie and looking at her website, I knew I found the right photographer. Once the time came for my pictures, I was nervous and anxious because I knew nothing about her and her business, other than from her website. But the anxiety quickly vanished once we finally met. I knew I had made the right choice very quickly, and the day of my shoot was one I will never forget. Theresa Marie made my senior picture shoot so memorable, and I can never thank her enough for that!"

My role models are:
My parents because they have given me a life one could only dream of, my brothers for showing me how important family is, my art teacher for helping me do what I do best, my hairdresser because I adore her personality more than anyone I ever met, and my best friend Sydney for keeping me sane.

Shaina :: Wisconsin Senior

Meet Shaina who traveled all the way from Wisconsin just for her senior photos…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“I’m from Wisconsin, so my family’s biggest hesitation was the distance and how Theresa and I would communicate about my senior photos. We had very minimal face to face meetings. Although we had limited time together, Theresa made it very easy for us to communicate and talk via email and the phone. The price of her photography also made my parent’s hesitant, but Theresa definitely made it worth it!

I chose Theresa Marie because I fell in love with her photos that I’ve seen on her blog! I could not stop stalking her website, it was literally perfect. Her photos looked so natural and not too edited. Theresa easily captured not only the person, but their personality. I loved working with Theresa Marie! She made me feel so comfortable when she was taking the photos. I didn’t feel self conscious or anything. What I love the most about her is that she alters the photography session and the reveal based off my interests. Theresa Marie let me make my decisions and she helped guide me too.

My favorite part was the reveal, I was literally speechless. It was fun, looking through the photos and designing my photo heirloom. I did not believe it was me at all. I felt good about myself, and that’s what I love about Theresa Marie. She made me feel beautiful, which is what made my experience with her special. I wouldn’t have change anything! The preparation, the shoot, and the reveal was perfect. She did everything she could to make my family and I happy with my senior photos. She exceeded beyond my family and I’s expectations.

I would recommend everyone to get their senior photos taken by Theresa Marie because she does everything she can to make you feel comfortable and happy with not only your photos, but the experience itself. It’s not all about the photos, it’s about the preparation. Theresa Marie was not only my photographer, but she was also a great friend. She didn’t even like my photographer, that’s how comfortable I was with her! I am so blessed to have worked with someone so talented. Theresa Marie truly captures the personality and emotion in the photos, and I could not be anymore content with how everything turned out. I had such a great experience and I wish I could relive my experience with her!”

My role model is:
My mother for sure! She has gone a long way from where she has come from. Many people, even her family, doubted her when she was young. But she proved them wrong and succeeded. She is the main reason why I am here today in America, all thanks to her hard work and I could not be anymore thankful for what she has given me.

Nicole :: Seven Rivers Christian School Senior Class of 2016

Meet Nicole Bell who will be graduating from Seven Rivers Christian School in 2016…

IN HER OWN WORDS:

“My biggest hesitation about getting senior pictures done was the fear that they would look forced, fake, or just cheesy. However, we chose Theresa Marie because each and every client in her gallery looked like they were having a genuinely good time and she brought out everyone’s natural beauty. The whole process was fun instead of overwhelming. From cracking jokes during the photoshoot to picking the perfect canvas to take home, each moment was unforgettable.

My favorite part was getting my hair and makeup done while eating snacks and just talking with Theresa. I felt so pampered! I felt confident and when I saw my images at the reveal I was amazed! I didn’t know I could look anything like those pictures portrayed! I think the hardest part was just waiting for the pictures because I was so excited! Otherwise, I wouldn’t change a thing!

Before I walked into the Theresa Marie Studio, I was a self-concious, nervous senior! I knew I wanted to have pictures done for my senior year, but I was so nervous to have to pose and have my picture taken. I chose Theresa Marie because of how natural and genuine her pictures looked and I made the right decsion!

Theresa loves what she does and she cares about her clients. Before the photoshoot she asks for you to fill out a survey so she can get to know you and bring your true self out in your photos! She pampers you when you get there and makes you laugh through the whole shoot! Nothing was awkward or forced! You need Theresa as your senior photographer!”

My role model is:
My role model is my mom! She is such a loving person and hard worker.

My DREAM job would be:

Avery :: Kansas Senior Class of 2016

Meet Avery who came all the way from Kansas for her senior shoot…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“We were all very hesitant at first that we were going to take my senior pictures (a huge milestone in my life) all the way in Florida! We had never heard of anyone from around where I live going to the Clearwater area for pictures so we had no idea where to even start! I got online to look around and as soon as I saw Theresa’s pictures and how amazing they were I knew she was going to be the one!

There are no words to explain how truly amazing my experience was. Theresa was so uplifting and made me feel beautiful in front of the camera! My absolute favorite part was how I didn’t even feel like I was taking pictures at times, we were having so much fun!

It was such an amazing experience; I would not have changed a single thing! She will capture every quirk possible of yours to remember your entire life. Theresa Marie does so much more than just take pictures, she captures your inner and outer beauty! She taught to be my own kind of beautiful!

Theresa, I could never thank you enough for everything. I wish so badly we could’ve came to the studio for the order appointment and pickup.. But I can’t wait to see all my amazing pieces! I hope to someday see you again!”

Hannah :: Michigan Senior Class of 2015

Meet Hannah who came in all the way from Michigan for her Senior photo shoot…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“I’d always wanted my pictures done by the water and my family was planning a trip to Clearwater, so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to get my senior pictures done. I started looking up different photographers in the Tampa and Clearwater area and I came across Theresa Marie. I’m so glad i did because I instantly fell in love with all of her images. I could really tell that she loves what she does and that she genuinely cares for her seniors.

My photo shoot could not have gone any better. I was so excited and Theresa Marie made me feel super comfortable in front of the camera. I felt like a superstar and that’s how you should feel. Oh my gosh, when I saw my images I was speechless! I loved every single one she showed me, they were better than I ever imagined they would be.

Overall, being a TM senior is so special and I will never forget it. This experience exceeded all of my expectations. Thank you so much Theresa Marie!”

Chelsea :: Newsome Senior Class of 2015

Meet Chelsea who just graduated from Newsome High School…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“Most of the time I feel awkward having people take pictures of me and posing for someone so I was kind of nervous. We chose Theresa Marie because the photos she does are beautiful and we fell in love!

Theresa Marie made me feel very comfortable! It was a lot of fun, my favorite part was going in the water and posing on the beach because I love the beach and I was excited to take pictures somewhere that I felt embodied my persona.”

When I first saw my images, I was astonished! I knew Theresa took great photos but it’s so different seeing them when they’re pictures of you. I was amazed at how beautiful they looked. Would I recommend Theresa Marie to other seniors? OH MY GOD YES! She is so funny and makes you feel so comfortable when she’s photographing you. She makes the whole thing feel natural and fun.”

CHELSEA’S MOM, LAURA SAID:
“I didn’t want her pictures to look like everyone else’s. I wanted her to have a unique experience and with someone who took it seriously.

It was amazing from start to finish. So professional but 100% fun and we could have stayed for hours more. My favorite part was seeing the look of happiness on Chelsea’s face. She’s been through so much in the last few years and having her photos finished at the beach was something she always wanted to do for her senior pictures. She loved it and I loved watching her love it.

When I first saw Chelsea’s images I gasped and I think I may have squealed..haha. They were even better than I had hoped for.

I would recommend Theresa Marie to other seniors in a heartbeat. You get what you pay for. If you are looking to do something amazing and have something to treasure for the rest of your life, call Theresa Marie!

Working with Theresa Marie was the best choice we could have made. She was so much fun and gave us the most professional photos. Choosing which amazing products to get based on the images she took was the best part. She is worth every penny and I couldn’t recommend her any higher!”
