“They make taking pictures fun!”

I am so glad I found Tierney Riggs to capture our engagement, wedding, and hopefully many more milestones to come.

Not only is Tierney easy to work with – from her excellent communication, capturing our vision, and quick turn around time – she makes taking pictures fun.




— farra and preston

"Tierney and Christopher made us feel comfortable during the photo shoots and we genuinely enjoyed our time with them.”

My husband and I decided to hire Tierney Riggs Photography for our engagement and wedding pictures because of her photography style and the personal touches she added with our introductory call. 

 Tierney and Christopher made us feel comfortable during the photo shoots and we genuinely enjoyed our time with them. I liked Tierney so much, I decided to have do my Bridal Portraits with her too, and it was such a great idea!  We can't recommend Tierney Riggs Photography enough!!

-jennifer and andrew

“Tierney and Christopher were by far one of the best vendors we used for the wedding.”

 From day one, they made my husband and I feel comfortable with their kind personalities and confidence. And it only got better from there. Tierney pays attention to the small details, like a beautiful gift box sent a few months after we booked her to posting frequently on social media tips and tricks to help make the planning process smoother. 

 This attention to detail carried over to the wedding, where they captured the most beautiful of photos. I can't stop smiling every time I look through the gallery and am in love with every photo. From the variety in the poses they suggested to capturing candid moments on the dance floor. Everything is breathtaking.

We love being both interactive and discreet throughout the wedding day. There will be parts of the wedding day when we will need to be in control in order to accomplish everything that needs to be done while staying on schedule.

There will also be times when you won’t even notice we're there (The ceremony, during dances and toasts, etc.) We teach our couples how to pose naturally (no awkward moments here!), and interact with one another to strike the right balance of “candid” and “posed”.

Usually if you’re having your ceremony and reception in one location with a 20-30 minute ceremony (which is most common) 8 hours is perfect!

If you’re having a longer ceremony or having a church wedding/venue reception, 10 hours is a safe bet. You can always add additional coverage as we get closer to the wedding! No matter how many hours you select, we will help you make the most of your coverage!
