“You don't just want Tara as your wedding photographer - you NEED her. She is a consummate professional and a delightful person. The photos she took of us are absolutely stunning, despite our awkwardness in front of a camera. Her rates are incredibly competitive. From the moment we met her to talk about her style and our needs, to our engagement shoot, to our wedding day, to our post-wedding correspondence, Tara has been nothing but wonderful, helpful, and eager to make sure we were really happy with everything. As a lesbian couple, we were anxious to find a photographer who we could really be comfortable - Tara is that and more. On the day of the wedding, Tara not only took amazing photographs - she went to great lengths to ensure that we had a wonderful experience, stepping in at just the right moment to whisk us outside (and away from some family members) for some evening shots. She was also no-nonsense with the list of family shots that needed to be taken, working through the list efficiently and giving family members no room to interfere - something that I had not realized we needed until that moment. BOOK TARA. NOW.”

“Book Tara ASAP!
I can't imagine my wedding without Tara as our photographer. Every time I post one of our incredible wedding or engagement photos to my social media accounts, I receive so many compliments on how unbelievably talented she is. Tara was incredible for many reasons.
1. She took time to learn about us as a couple, asking us to take a quiz to learn our love languages and asking pointed questions about our dynamic and relationship. This helped her to take photos that really represented us in our real life. 2. She was quick to respond to any questions or updates that we had, so I was able to mark things off of my to do list quickly. 3. She uses lighting in an AMAZING way, capturing an already gorgeous scene in a way that I didn’t even see before the photos came out. 4. She focuses on LGBTQ couples, making us feel comfortable during what feels like a vulnerable state (being very out in public while taking photos with your partner). 5. Tara got our sneak peek to us extremely quickly, and followed up soon after with the rest of the photos. I can’t recommend her enough. Her business and her clients are her top priority, and in my opinion, she truly is the best in the game. We will cherish these photos forever.”

“Tara is amazing!
I cannot say enough good things about Tara and how she made us feel on our big day!! I found Tara on Instagram before we were even engaged, and knew that I wanted to her to be our wedding photographer. Her vibe and work is unmatched! Tara ended up coming to our rehearsal dinner at my wife’s parents house, and she immersed herself immediately into conversations with our family and friends. Everyone loved her and the vibe was so so great going into the wedding day! The day of, Tara stayed on schedule the entire time, and was so much fun to have around with us. Tara has a way of making everyone feel comfortable and beautiful, and she ended up capturing our love so perfectly. We cannot thank Tara enough for all of our beautiful pictures, and can’t wait to work with her in the future!”

“Best purchase I made for my wedding!
Tara's work is unlike anything I've ever seen before. She has just an artistic eye for the most beautiful and romantic shots. She was the first vender I booked when I got engaged. My sister got married 3 years ago and used Tara as her photographer and I knew then that I had to have Tara shoot my wedding one day. From the engagement photos to our wedding, everything is so beautiful. She made everything feel effortless and really showed our love in every photo. We got our preview photos and it took my breathe away. She is also so much fun, she taught me how to do the wobble on our dance floor! We had such a blast at the wedding and her work is spectacular. You will want to hire Tara because she was the best money I spent on anything at my wedding! She was beyond perfect!”

“Hire Her, Seriously!
A great photographer was our highest priority when planning our wedding, and as soon as we saw Tara's work we knew we'd found exactly what we were looking for. Not only is her work gorgeous though, she creates such a wonderful environment even for two photo shy brides. We loved that an engagement session came included with our package, because we got to develop a relationship with Tara beforehand. We've never felt so safe in front of camera, even though the moments she's capturing are very intimate. She was the perfect person for us to have around on such an important day, and the photos she captured are unreal and so beautiful. We love her and her work so much.”

“Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about Tara!
She was everything we were looking for in a photographer and so much more. When my wife and I started wedding planning, we wanted to make sure to hire LGBTQ+ friendly vendors. Our DJ actually recommended Tara to us, and working with her was truly one of the best parts of our experience. My wife and I were super apprehensive about taking "romantic" professional photos, as we didn't think that was really "our vibe." Not only did Tara make us feel completely comfortable with taking those photos, she helped to push us out of our comfort zone to get even more beautiful photos than we thought possible! Tara was super flexible with us during the planning process and helped us navigate everything when we had to postpone our original wedding date due to COVID. She also answered all of our questions and eased our minds when we were still a little nervous about having our wedding this year. On our wedding day, she knew that we wanted to enjoy as much of our cocktail hour and reception as possible and worked with us to get beautiful photos in a timely manner after the ceremony so that we could greet all of our guests and eat hors d'oeuvres! I honestly could go on and on, but her work really speaks for itself. She is beyond talented and is just a joy to be around. Hire Tara. I promise it will be one of the best things you do for your wedding.”

About Tara Beth Photography

PHILLY-BASED EMPATHETIC ARTIST

Hi, I’m Tara Robertson, the owner and photographer behind Tara Beth Photography. My journey into photography started with a passion for storytelling and capturing life’s most meaningful moments. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, I launched my business with a simple goal: to celebrate love in all its forms and create images that feel authentic and timeless.

I specialize in wedding and engagement photography, with a focus on LGBTQ+ couples. My approach is deeply empathetic, as I believe that vulnerability fosters connection. I strive to create a space where my clients feel seen, celebrated, and comfortable enough to be their true selves. That’s when the magic happens—when I can capture the genuine, unguarded moments that tell their unique stories.

Over the years, my work has been featured in The New York Times, New York Magazine, and BRIDES. These recognitions mean a lot, but what truly fulfills me is knowing I’ve created something meaningful for the couples who trust me with their memories.

On a personal note, I’m married to my incredible wife, Vanessa, and together we’re raising our two amazing children, Atlas and Delta. My family is my anchor and constant source of inspiration. Being a wife and mother has deepened my understanding of love and commitment, and I bring that perspective into my work every day.

For me, photography isn’t just about taking pictures—it’s about celebrating life, connection, and the beautiful, messy, heartfelt moments that make us who we are. I feel so honored to do what I do and to be a part of so many incredible love stories.
