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!

IN HER OWN WORDS:

“I wanted a photographer that would capture me in a way that was timeless, not cheesy like a lot of senior pictures are. I found Theresa through google and did some researching and fell in love with her style. After talking with her on the phone I knew I could trust her to give me a perfect senior shoot.

It was an awesome experience. I knew I didn’t need to stress because I was in good hands! My favorite part was getting my makeup done and planning the shoot because we could just laugh and get excited for what was to come! At my reveal I was truly blown away…I felt beautiful!! I love my pictures so much.

I am so grateful that I found Theresa. She gave me such a unique senior experience and it was truly the cherry on top of my final months as a senior! Not only does she do beautiful work, but she makes you feel so special. Everything Theresa does is done with care and detail in mind. If I were to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing!!

Theresa doesn’t just take pictures, edit them, and give you your order. She makes it a whole experience. From her Snapchat stories to her adorable ‘Pink Starburst’ notes, she makes you feel so special. She is the most detail-oriented person I’ve met and I feel like I can honestly call her a friend. My pictures are everything I could have dreamed of and more. She captured the essence of who I am. Theresa’s style is so tasteful and I know I will love these pictures until I’m 80!”

Lindsey :: Plant City Senior Class of 2015

Meet Lindsey who is a 2015 graduate from Plant City High school…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“My family and I didn’t have any hesitations with senior pictures because we knew it was something we really wanted to do before I graduate. We felt that it was important to have proffesional pictures done during such a big part of my life so that we could look back on them. I chose Theresa Marie because my friend actually saw her online and once I stalked her site I fell in love with the way she captures people. I really liked her whole style that she had and I felt like I could connect with her.

My overall experience with Theresa Marie was excellent and I would recommend her to anybody that wants to get senior pictures done! I loved how comfortable she made me feel from all of the sweet treats she had to the gift bag I got at the end. I’m not a person who likes to take pictures all of the time because I’ve always felt that I’m not that photogenic but once we started she had me loosen up with her silly sense of humor and corny jokes which helped me a lot plus my best friend, Megan was there to make weird faces in the background. I loved getting the chance to have airbrushed makeup done because I’ve never done it before and because it looked amazing!

It’s hard to say what my favorite part was because the whole process was pretty fun but I took some pictures with my best friend who is going to UF while I’m going FSU and that was really special since we got to capture moments together before we have to go our separate ways even though we could never really be separated.

Also I loved seeing my pictures with my mom and seeing her reactions as I sat back and ate some popcorn courtesy of Theresa! When I first saw my images I was very surprised and overwhelmed because they all were so nicely done thanks to Theresa and I felt very special in that moment! It’s not every day that you watch a video that is all about you.

Theresa’s jokes and comforting sayings made me feel at ease while taking pictures since I was a little tense at first. Towards the end of the shoot we were all laughing and Theresa made me feel like a princess with the way she had all of these special things all ready for me. I was not expecting to be treated like a queen but that’s how Theresa will make you feel. She does all of these little extra things that most people maybe wouldn’t do but they make you feel special.

I’m so thankful to have such a sweet and caring photographer like her and I will always remember and cherrish the moments we had while capturing my senior pictures! Theresa Marie is awesome and you would be lucky to have her as your photographer for senior pictures!”

My parents because they are both very strong and have taught me everything I know. They have always done whats best for me and I hope to be a parent that is as good as them.

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.

Sydney | East Lake Class of 2014

Meet Sydney who is a Class of 2014 senior from East Lake High School…

IN HER OWN WORDS:

“I chose Theresa Marie because I saw her work online through some other friends and absolutely fell in love with her work. I had heard that she was so easy to get along with and genuinely cared about her clients.

I could not have asked for a better experience with Theresa Marie! From the second she called me on the phone even still after my session was over, every time you talk to her you can tell she cares about you. It isn’t just her job, it is what she loves to do and it definitely shows that through her work. Having a not so great experience with senior pictures before I found Theresa Marie, finding her was a miracle. She doesn’t just do her job because she has to, she does it because she loves to. She makes you feel so comfortable and is always making you laugh and have a great time.

Oh my gosh! Just with the sneak peek I knew my pictures were going to be amazing. My photos were everything I could have dreamed of and more! Everything was perfect!

You will have an amazing time with Theresa Marie. She doesn’t just take pictures to take pictures. She takes pictures because that’s what she loves to do. She actually cares about all her clients and doesn’t just blow them off. She will make anyone’s dream about their senior pictures come true.

Thank you for making my senior picture experience everything I could have asked for and more!”

Alexa | Palm Harbor University Class of 2014

Please meet Alexa who is a graduating senior from Palm Harbor University High School…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“I was a bit hesitant to get my pictures taken because I never really liked being in front of the camera. However, my mom found Theresa Marie online while searching for photographers and we both liked not only the quality of the pictures we saw on her website, but how friendly Theresa was.

My experience with Theresa Marie was great. I loved the variety of outfits and locations that I was able to do with her, it really helped me get comfortable taking pictures. I have to say my favorite part about the shoot was when we were near the pink flowers in downtown Palm Harbor. Theresa really knows the best places to get pictures taken!

I was absolutely amazed when I saw my images! I loved everything about them – the poses the locations etc. It was truly amazing to see them. Theresa Marie really puts emphasis on the senior during the experience. She got to know who I am and what I was comfortable with. That made the pictures even more personal and special.”

my DREAM job would be:
A teacher. And I don’t mean that in the typical, school education sense. I mean it in a way that I want to be able to teach anybody of any age skills and knowledge that will truly help them later in life. This is why I want to be a speech therapist.

if I inherited a million bucks today, I would:
Use the money to pay off family debts and for college funds. I would save some of it for later life and for my children. Hmm, charity (specifically for food, health, and education), travel. I would want to get exotic food, and use the money for living purposes.

my favorite place to shop is:
Forever 21 and Staples (I’m crazy over supply stores I’m not really sure why)

my favorite snack foods are:
Popcorn and fruit.

something I have too much of:
Blankets/pillows/stuffed animals. I will always want more comfort.

TV show I’m currently addicted to:
Teen Wolf and The Vampire Diaries

a movie that makes me happy:
We’re the Miller’s

a movie that makes me cry:
I cry soo much – just at anything lol. I’ve cried at movies such as Ghost, Divergent, The Hunger Games, Rent (this one was the worst I think), What’s Eating Gilbert Grape. I even sob watching Teen Wolf. So idk I’m just really emotional with everything.

my favorite color is:
ahhh this is hard. I’m sorry I can’t pick just one. My favorite pallet is a light blue, blush pink, and a pale gray.

one thing I couldnt live without:
My blanket. It’s green and white crochet. I’ve had it since I was two. Over the years it’s split and so now I have about 4 or 5 different parts to it. 1 part I gave to my boyfriend. My blanket always comforts me. I like to rub my fingers on it, especially in the morning. It’s kind of like my contact comfort.

my favorite book or magazine:
Books: The Curable Romantic, The Harry Potter Series, The Hunger Games, Kafka on the Shore, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.
Magazines: Psychology Today, The Scientific American, National Geographic

my favorite high school memory is:
Going to Coastline Festival, an indie music concert series in Tampa. I was with a few good, but not necessarily really close, friends, but there I felt really free and happy experiencing music that got me through my first two years of high school. During that time I was fighting with my boyfriend, and although I love being with him, I just will always remember the immense joy I felt at being away from it all and surrounded by the exciting live music of Passion Pit and Matt and Kim. I’ve been to many concerts but that was by far my most favorite and really the only one I truly danced to.

What would be the THEME SONG to your life?
Intro – The XX

5 things on my life bucket list are:
Go to London again, visit Portland and India, go to a major EDM concert/festival, help somebody hear/communicate, learn sign language
