INQUIRE FOR DETAILS
After photographing more than 200 weddings over the past decade, we've really come to value the unexpected, intimate moments that take place on a wedding day.
The hug your mom gives you before you leave your dressing room. The tear that falls down his cheek when he sees you walking down the aisle. The way the two of you lean your heads together during the toasts.
This day is about more than the flowers and the shoes you chose. It's about celebrating the start of a new family. It's an honor to play a part in such a significant day and I hope you'll choose us to be a part of yours!
EVERYTHING YOU NEED
TO KNOW ABOUT WORKING TOGETHER ON YOUR WEDDING DAY
- Nathan Boyd
"Tamela was awesome, our original photographer had to back out last minute due to a family emergency 5 weeks before our wedding and Tamela stepped in. We were so lucky to find her!!! She did an amazing job and everything was perfect. We are so grateful that she was apart of our day and highly recommend her to anyone looking for professional photos of any kind."

The Process
SIGNATURE WORK
- Sarah + Nathan
A little over a month before my wedding I had a last-minute cancellation on a photographer. I posted on a brides page on Facebook trying to find someone to help. Tamela quickly jumped in and offered a phone consultation that night! From the moment we began our conversation I was blown away by Tamela’s energy and passion for her work. The connection was instantaneous and I knew she was the right person for the job. The experience just continued to surpass expectations. On our wedding day, Tamela celebrated with us and felt like family! Before we left the venue that evening she even had a sneak peek slide show put together (from our wedding that day!) to show us some of the photos. Then on our photo reveal day, Tamela made a memorable day even more special by adding so many special touches to show us all of the amazing shots! She was nothing short of professional and personable the entire time. I will forever be thankful for her stepping in and taking on a huge role in our wedding!
"As if her work weren't amazing enough, she's the absolute kindest!"
- Sammy + Stephen
Tamela at Forever Love is truly the best! She has photographed an engagement shoot, my wedding, a gender reveal, and is working with me on another shoot upcoming! She makes you feel comfortable and delivers high quality prints and edits on all images! After she captured my wedding, I told her she had a client for life and it’s still true. If you’re looking for someone to capture a special moment, you don’t be disappointed with her!
"You simply must book her today!"
- Lauren + Chris
Tamela was AMAZING! She was kind, thoughtful and hilarious! She made the day stress free and easy! She had so many creative ideas for pictures- I can’t wait to see all the pictures. I would 10/10 recommend her to capture your big day! THANK YOU so much!
"10/10 recommend her to capture your big day!"

"Tamela will always be a part of our love story the moment we got engaged. She exudes genuine love and care for her craft and for her clients. She did our engagement shoot and did our wedding so beautifully. I as the bride definitely appreciated her hugs and pieces of advice and calm support all whilst doing her job. No words can describe how much we are so grateful to work with her.!"
Amber & Tyler
Tamela was nothing short of amazing!!!! She was great to work with, has a great personality and has a wonderful eye for detail! I highly recommend her for your big day!!!! Did I mention the photos are breathtaking!!!!! If you haven’t hired her you should!!!!
- Sammy ramey
Tamela and her team are exceptional! She’s truly become a great friend since shooting our wedding in 2017. Since then she’s captured various other family moments for us. I’ve recommended her to multiple friends and they have loved her as well! She’s professional, fun, talented beyond measure, and a true joy to add to your wedding
(she cried at mine, if that’s not a dedicated photographer, I don’t know what is!)
