Artistically crafted portraits for the everyday 

In a world where time moves so quickly, being able to stop for even just a second and capture a moment is what makes my heart flutter. It's what makes me whole. It's what keeps me going. Life is short and before we know it, our kids have grown quicker than we can comprehend and we are watching them come into their own and have families of their own. That is why building a legacy is so important. Let me be the one to help tell your story for generations to come.

Recently I have been feeling like time is moving much quicker. It boggles my mind to see how quickly kids are growing around me, seeing my mom get older and looking in the mirror and seeing life just pass by.

My goal as a photographer is simple. Capturing a moment in time for you to live in the moment, bask in it and cherish it forever. I know that sounds corny but it's how I feel. I want to transport you to that time you were pregnant with your first born or the time you found your one true love. Or take a trip down memory lane and see how little your kids were in your annual family portraits as you watch them go to college and start their own families. 

I lost my father when I was 18 years old and I only have photos and my memories to fall back on. As I struggle with my memory of him, these photos we have help remind me of the times I may have forgotten about. I didn't know it then but our family portraits and candid photos have captured his legacy in ways I didn't ever think it would. 

I can't help but express how important it is to have updated photos. It's not for the gram or showing off what my life is like for me. It's about building my families legacy, creating memories we can look back on forever. Finding the beauty in that special moment you are celebrating. Or maybe you are just celebrating a birthday or even a milestone. Being alive and being you is reason enough to celebrate. Let's capture it together.

the moment is precious.
be present, bask in it + let's capture it
so you can cherish it forever.

Tamar was wonderful to work with! She was so patient and gentle with her direction. She did an amazing job at capturing the beauty of everyday life moments with our little one. Tamar has been a friend for many years and we feel honored she was able to photograph our family.  

Joanna + Ian

Tamar is amazing to work with, she radiates great energy! We have had our family pictures taken by her two years in a row now. She worked so well with our little one, making him feel comfortable and got different poses in a short amount of time!  

Dalila + Allen

We are so happy with our sons newborn photos! They are absolutely beautiful. Tamar was so patient and went out of her way to make us feel comfortable throughout our photo session. She asked us for our input and was flexible with our schedule as we had to nurse as soon as we arrived. Throughout the session she wore a mask, maintained a safe distance, and had a clean sanitized area for us to place our son for photos. Tamar has an eye for detail and an ability to capture beautiful moments that we will treasure forever. We are super grateful!

My experience with Tamar was simply amazing. I've known Tamar for over a decade and I'm familiar with how friendly she is, but I was completely unaware of this professional photographer side of her...
This photoshoot went incredibly well and I was beyond satisfied with my experience and the results. It is a very strange time of a Pandemic, but Tamar did everything she could to make me feel comfortable...
Choosing her to capture my Bachelor's Degree milestone is the best decision I have made this year.

Daniela + Robert

Our engagement session was such an amazing experience. Tamar has an incredible way of making people comfortable and that showed in our session with her. She was accommodating, made sure we felt safe and comfortable and most importantly relaxed. Taking photos can be quite nerve wrecking but Tamar did an amazing job at making us feel at home and like nobody was watching, let alone taking photos. It felt like we were on a day date, except we were lucky enough to have her capture our special bond. And we are forever grateful. These are photos we will cherish for years to come.

Working with Tamar was so much fun. She is friendly and comforting and made our Mother’s Day Mini Session a day to remember! We’re a shy bunch, not always good being in front of a camera, but being my first Mother’s Day, we were determined to capture some moments with Baby, both Grandmas, Daddy, and Mommy (me). We couldn’t be happier with the results! Tamar had us interact and have fun and captured both posed and candid shots. We loved them all!! And now we want to do more! We look forward to working with Tamar again. Thank you for helping us capture my first Mommy’s Day!

Tamar was absolutely wonderful and had great ideas! Her attention to detail saved our shoot.

Tamar was so accommodating especially with an energetic toddler. She made us feel so comfortable and our portraits were amazing.

Tamar was a pleasure to work with. She initially took our engagement pictures back in 2019 and could not be more happy with the results!! We recently had a quick family shoot during her Pop Up event and we were so glad it was her who we decided to take our first family pictures! She is incredibly friendly and professional! Our 16 month-old son ended up with a new friend at the end of the shoot!! Just a great experience and one we truly recommend!

I had a nice experience at the shoot. Tamar and her team were very energetic and friendly.

Tamar is a lifestyle portrait photographer who loves capturing the sweet, intimate moments when people are living in the moment and don’t realize she has her lens on them.

Based in Los Angeles, Tamar didn’t grow up surrounded by cameras all her life. In fact, it wasn’t until she was suggested to take a photography class for fun in Junior College when she was awe struck by the process and completely fell in love with photography. Tamar proceeded to study Photography at Art Center College of Design where she earned her Bachelor's degree in Photography + Imaging.

Tamar is a very detail oriented and organized person. In fact, she's obsessed with organizing. Whether it's at home, in her office or her home studio, Tamar is all about labels and bins. She also sees the little details others usually don’t. She goes above and beyond to make sure she creates beautiful imagery that captures your heart and warms your soul. You feel the love and joy through her photos. That’s what makes her a great story teller.
