I'm just an average gal who's a sucker for the simple things in life. Chances are if I'm not hunkered down getting shit done at my desk, I'm out exploring or swinging in my hammock next to a nice watering hole.

Hi. I'm Teresa. While photography is a part-time job for me, documenting your stories doesn't ever get treated like it's not important. My full-time gig is teaching high school English and journalism at an all-boys school in Washington, DC.

My love for photography started in my early youth when I would visit my grandmother during summer vacations. She had about 3 to 4 wonderful family albums. My favorite albums were the ones where I saw gramma's old pictures taken in the early 1900’s. I would ask who those people were and she would tell me while including the stories behind the photos. What kid doesn’t like stories? Those family albums rapidly connected me with our family's history and the stories brought the photos to life. My great grandmother has a face, not just a name.

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I captured my first wedding in 2016 and I was instantly in love with being a wedding photographer!
