Working with Tierney

Will feel like coming home

Imagine this, you pull up into the meandering gravel driveway to see your grandmother’s white farmhouse with the wrap around porch and the swing your feet always dangled from as a small child. You see the long winding leaves of the weeping willow swaying in the summer sun, just as they always have.

Your grandma steps out of the front door arms wide open to greet you with a warm hug. She offers you a glass of sweet tea and invites to sit down on that old porch swing. Nostalgia floods your brain, the sense of familiarity instantly making you feel safe, and at home. This feeling- this is why you hire Tierney.

If this moves you, then we are a perfect fit!

ABOUT YOU

You want to capture those moments that tug at your heartstrings- the ones where you'll look back on with a smile, knowing they'll be passed down through generations, just like your Mema's blue willow china. If you value authenticity, love a bit of nostalgia, and want an experience that feels as natural as the moment's I capture, then I'm the perfect fit for you.

Our clients are seekers of beauty who cherish the simple joys of life, embrace the warmth of family traditions, and find magic in the everyday moments. They are down-to-earth and lighthearted, with a love for  grandmillennial charm.
