Memories N More

There are not enough kind words in the English Dictionary to describe how wonderful Teresa is! From the first time we met with her, I just knew. I knew she'd be an amazing photographer, I knew she'd be fun to work with, and I knew I'd have a blast spending our big day with her! She proved me right on all fronts. Her pictures accentuated our perfect day, and she captured moments at our wedding that I didn't even know she saw (I'm not even sure I saw some of them! Phew, glad someone did!) What I really loved about Teresa was that from our first meeting, I had one picture that I was pretty adamant about, and of course on our wedding day, my mind was in a million different places, but she remembered! She even pulled up the reference pictures on her phone. She was always quick to reply with an email, and always so supportive of ideas or brainstorming. Again, I can't say enough great things about Teresa!

Teresa was amazing. Not only are the pictures absolutely breathtaking, but she was so fun to hang out with while getting ready! She fit right in with my mom, sister, best friend and I and had us cracking up. When I was looking for a wedding photographer, I knew during my first call to Teresa that she would be great. I think we talked for over an hour the first time we talked and she sounded like exactly the style and personality I was looking for in our wedding photographer (and she offered a military discount). My husband and I met with her two days prior the wedding and went through the shots we wanted and she even offered advice on our backup ceremony locations based on light and how our pictures would turn out should we need to use it. Teresa arrived before her scheduled arrival time to take pictures of the reception venue all set up. I was a little nervous initially when taking photographs in my wedding attire in the lobby of a busy hotel and Teresa was able to help put me at ease quickly. I have not even seen the entire DVD yet as my wedding was less than a week ago but based on the pictures on the blog, I know I will love them all! She also helped me find a second photographer to assist her in shooting for a discounted price so that not a moment would be missed. I hope when we have a family we can return to Savannah and have Teresa photograph us again.

Teresa was great! She was everything we could ever ask for. I could tell she truly embraced her job as she was able to make me laugh and relax before the ceremony. She made me feel very comfortable! She also had the pictures up the next day and the CD out in the mail in just 2 days! It was great to see the pictures at our brunch the next morning!

There are NO words that will ever be able to describe how much I would recommend Memories N More to any bride or anybody looking for photographs! Being a "photographer" myself it was hard for me to choose one but Teresa's style is exactly what I have dreamed of for my wedding day photos. Her personality is the best and she really makes you feel beyond special from the moment you email her to start your journey in planning! She did my engagements, bridals, and wedding day. I will be going to her for any future photos I need taken without a doubt!

I was planning my destination wedding in Savannah, GA all by e-mail and phone. when looking for a photographer I was nervous because I knew I wouldn't be able to meet with them before hand. So when doing some research I came across many photographers. Teresa however seemed to have everything I was looking for! Not only did she respond quickly to every email, but from the 1st email I could tell how a joy it will be to have her be my photographer! When the wedding date came I couldn't be more happy with picking Teresa! Teresa so friendly, sweet, fun, and professional most of all made me feel at ease! She had so many great ideas and took such amazing pictures. And letting Stephen and I give the camera the bird :) She was also such a life saver for helping me get in my dress, don't know what I would have done without her!!! Having Teresa was so much more then my photographer on my wedding day, she was like an old friend! Stephen and I couldn't thank her enough for such a magical day!

Teresa and her mentee Kim were AMAZING! Teresa's packages are great, giving us full access to all of our pictures so that our guests don't have to pay per picture after the day. Teresa is great at putting everyone at ease and was able to seamlessly integrate herself into the days activities so that everyone felt completely comfortable. She was wonderful with our 2 year old daughter who was the flower girl and she even got the groom and his groomsmen to loosen up quite a bit. Her shots of everything were absolutely beautiful! She is professional and completely friendly at the same time and we are so happy to have had her as our photog!

Teresa is amazing!! The photographs were so important to me and she did not disappoint. Not only were all my pictures provided to me edited in both color and black and white, they were at my house by the time I returned home from my honeymoon. That was a luxury and I was really thankful for that. Teresa did the most amazing work and I can't say enough about how much I love my photographs. She is easy to work with and definitely has a talent!! Also, her prices are very fair. Don't go anywhere else!!

I don't even know how to begin to thank Teresa for everything that she did for us before the wedding and during! She was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was living in New York City at the time of my engagement but knew I wanted to get married in Hilton Head, SC (being a Southern girl at heart!). After looking through countless wedding photography websites, I finally narrowed it down and called Teresa. We spoke for at least an hour, and I could have talked to her all afternoon if it weren't for a work meeting. She was funny, sweet, easy going and extremely helpful. Before I had even officially booked her, she was emailing me with tips on other vendors (talk about selfless!). I ended up using her suggestions for my guitarist, DJ and lighting and had no qualms what so ever because I trusted her word completely. Jerry and I decided to fly down to SAV/HHI last fall to do some planning, and also meet up with Teresa. We were both nervous about shooting an engagement session as neither of us enjoy being the center of attention but she put us as ease and we never felt like we were "posing" or "acting." It was like strolling through gorgeous downtown Savannah with an old friend, who happened to have an expensive camera around her neck. She was even able to edit all of our photos and put them all on a DVD in time for us to pick them up on our way back to NYC on Sunday - talk about service!!! Throughout the wedding planning, she was a great sounding board and I never got the sense that she was too busy to answer even the smallest question and was a tremendous help with last minute details - even offering to run errands for me on the days leading up to the wedding. She was such a hit with my family and friends and her demeanor was always professional, but NEVER stuffy. She was perfect and she made me, my husband and all of our friends and family look like rockstars. I can't wait to use my last "menu" item for her to photograph us again. You WILL NOT be disappointed in choosing Teresa, or ANYONE that she trusts/endorses. I promise you.

It was a pure delight to have Teresa as our wedding photographer and I couldn't be more enthusiastic about recommending her services. She was absolutely amazing, vivacious, heartfelt and focused and my husband and I were confident in her capability and the photographs the whole time. We had a destination wedding and it was really important for us to find someone whose photographs we liked (her website and blog has lots of photos), that we felt weren't old-fashioned and uptight (both photographer and photos), taken by a person we would enjoy having as a part of our special day and around us for hours. A big deciding factor for my husband was that Teresa gives you the ownership of your own photographs, which is actually a rarity among wedding photographers. We had lots of friends who had to pay through the nose for copies of their own wedding pictures. Combine that with the fact that Teresa and I had a fantastic phone conversation the first time we made contact and that we liked all her pictures, and we were sold. A big thing for us was that on all her reviews - and as evidenced by the pictures - everyone is having fun and she captures the true emotions going on for that particular couple. Our wedding was emotional, happy, joyous, and I was nervous walking myself down the aisle and cried like a baby when I gave my speech but I was also so happy to be getting married and to be surrounded by everyone who loved me and Teresa captured that entire spectrum of emotions. When I look at the photos I get to relive each part of the day. Added bonus is that she got my husband to smile and keep his eyes open in pictures! We never felt like we were posing or being fake and the pictures reflect that. We were lucky enough to have an engagement shoot with Teresa two days before our wedding. In a perfect world we would have gotten to meet her in person earlier but exigent circumstances prevented that. However, Teresa was always in contact with me and super prompt in returning all my messages and emails and silly queries. The result is that she and I really knew each other when we met for the engagement shoot and she was genuinely thrilled to be taking our photos. We laughed and walked around Savannah taking 1000 photos in an hour. She let us be part of the process too; she suggested lots of different poses and locations but if we had a suggestion (and we did) she welcomed them and enthusiastically shot those pictures for us. We wanted to take a photo in front of the Forsyth Park fountain to match the one we had a random tourist take of us the first trip we took to Savannah and she took a fabulous series of pictures at a significant place for us. She delivered the same thing at the wedding by taking all the wedding party pictures you could possibly want in all permutations, taking fabulous photos of us as a couple and then great photos at the reception. She was just a joy to work with, a pleasure and a real blessing to have on and at our wedding, and a seriously wonderful woman. She loves her job, she loves her brides and she cares about taking your wedding photographs. I cannot recommend her strongly enough and urge you to choose her to be your photographer. It was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I felt like I had another friend in attendance and I'm proud to consider her a friend. Its a real pleasure to have someone so integral to my wedding become a friend and it points to Teresa's wonderful character and spirit.

Teresa is AMAZING-----her pictures are so expressive and she might be the sweetest woman I have ever met! From the engagement photo session where she walked my fiancee and I through all the steps to great pictures effortlessly to fun family shots at pre-wedding night cocktail party, I cannot recommend Theresa enough. Even when she wasn't able to take the photos for our wedding day herself, she found two excellent photographers to capture the day from start to end. Oh....check out the Really Fun Photo Booth....it is, as the name says, REALLY FUN :)

Teresa was great and I knew from the moment we first met that she would be the photographer we wanted. Savannah was a destination wedding for us and Teresa was always able to answer questions and make suggestions. She took beautiful pictures of everything we wanted to capture. I have received excellent reviews from the people who've seen them. I would recommend her work to anyone needing a photographer in that area.

Teresa Earnest was the icing on our daughter's wedding cake -- the sweet, wonderful, unforgettable, make-you-smile kind of icing! You expect to find joy in the presence of your family and friends on the wedding day, but what an added joy it was to have Teresa become a highlight of that special day! Our daughter Sarah, an avid online wedding photo viewer, found Teresa and sceduled our first meeting over a year before her wedding. Our love-at-first-sight relationship grew from that moment through bridal portraits at our home over 80 miles from Savannah to the actual wedding day and beyond. Teresa just oozes happiness, and she transfers her love for her work and her brides to everything she does. She is the perfect blend of fun, creativity and personality with professionalism, dependability and confidence. She controls every situation without being controlling. She captured each individual personality in the wedding party and conveying the overall feeling of the day. A truly gifted photographer, she manages to add an artisic flair to even the most traditional pose. Her use of lighting and composition creates images unlike any others I've seen. Viewing the thousands of images, each one special in its own way, is just like reliving that wonderful day. I knew I was getting a great new son-in-law, but I am delighted to have gained another new member of our family in Teresa. Thank you for being the icing on our cake!

TERESA - WONDERFUL JOB! THE PICTURES ARE SO BEAUTIFUL! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR AN INCREDIBLE TIME AND MAKING MY MEMORIES LAST FOREVER!

If I could give Teresa more then 5 stars I would, not only is she an amazing photographer she is a wonderful person with a great personality!!!!! Her style of photography is not only traditional but it is fun and unique as well. My husband and I both are not real big camera people and tend to shy away from pictures and she made us feel so at ease. We received our pictures a week after we were married and they are BEAUTIFUL!!!! Teresa went "above and beyond" anything I would have ever expected....my husband referred to her as "an angel in disguise". We eloped to Savannah , we had been planning a small wedding in October and changed our minds. That left me with 2 weeks to pull everything together. Without Teresa I wouldn't have been able to do it...not only did she have great referrals for flowers and cake she delivered the cake to us!!! Thanks again Teresa for all that you did and making our day so special!!!!

I think Teresa Earnest from Memories N More should be the #1 photographer in Savannah and Charleston. I eloped to Savannah on February 5, 2011 and I just want to say that Teresa from the first time I spoke with her really showed what type of person she is. Teresa is so caring, thoughtful, and very professional. She talked to me the first time I spoke with her and really helped me plan a fantastic wedding in Savannah and that was even before I picked her to be my photographer. She is the one who told me about The Gastonian where I did get married at and loved it. I did not know much about Savannah before speaking with Teresa and I did not meet her until my wedding day, but that did not stop her from making sure that I had the most special day of my life. I can not thank her enough!!!

Teresa shot both our wedding and our engagement pictures. I could not be more happy with the way that our pictures turned out. She is laid back while still being able to coordinate and direct our wedding party as needed. She shoots quickly but expertly and everyone that has seen our photos is blown away by how amazing they look. She shot tons of photos and sent them all to us on DVD - really quickly too! I would (and have!) recommend Teresa to anyone.

Teresa was one of the best parts of my wedding for so many reasons! From the moment that I contacted her up until even after the wedding she has been nothing but super friendly, warm, kind, professional, and responsible. Savannah was a destination wedding location for us and Teresa was very prompt in returning all emails and even offered to coordinate over the phone if need be. She answered all of my questions and even gave me general advice on the wedding and the Savannah area when I asked. I had zero doubts about coordinating with her from afar. On the day of the wedding, I felt like we had been old friends and I was so excited to finally meet her in person. She was just as warm and friendly as I had expected her to be and she went above and beyond just being a photographer. She was so willing to help with anything she could and offered advice and an extra hand throughout the day. Teresa's photography skills are nothing short of amazing. She took beautiful pictures of every important moment and my mind was at ease just knowing that she was capturing everything. Teresa is also very creative and has a real talent for seeing an opportunity for a beautiful shot. Teresa mailed the DVD of the images very quickly and when I received them I was floored at how amazing they were. I have hundreds and hundreds of drop dead gorgeous shots. I have received nothing but the best compliments of her work and people think our pictures are from a magazine photo shoot! Teresa was so much more than a photographer to me that day and I am so thankful to have gotten to know her. I give nothing but the highest remarks and regards for her. :)

When I began looking at photographers in Savannah I asked a few of my friends for referrals and then started doing my own research. I qucikly learned that everyone has there own style of how they would like their pictures to look. Some photographers have a more artsy approach and some have a more traditional approach. Teresa has a combination of this which is what I was looking for. From the very first email I sent her i instantly felt a connection. She called me the next day and we just started talking about what my vision was and then it took off from there. Before I made the final desicion I wanted my fiance to meet her. He's a little camera shy and since we would be spending a lot of time with her on our wedding day I wanted him to feel very comfortable with her. We set up a meeting and from the minute she laid eyes on the two of us it was almost like we had been friends for years. She had great ideas for our engagement shoot which turned out to be fantastic and even helped me design our Save the Date postcard. Several other things I looked for when deciding on photographer beyond $$ was what all was included. She gives you every shot she takes during your sessions in high resolution format. So you can take the pictures to any printer and have them printed as big or small as you would like. She also offers to have bridal and engagement sessions and you can make the packages you want to fit your needs and not her agenda. Throughout this whole process Teresa was a great sounding board for ideas, questions and concerns that I had. We did not hire a coordinator so having someone with years of wedding experience was truly a blessing. I also wanted to say that she not only made me and my fiance feel comfortable she made my 5 year old neice who was our flower girl comfortable and she can be quite a hand full at times. Both of our families have commented to us on how special it was having Teresa be a part of our wedding. I think my dad posted a comment at the end of one of the blogs she's posted with our wedding photos so you can get his exact words. I think everyone was ready to adopt her in to the family before it was all over with. Prior to this process I did not know Teresa, I didnt know anything about her so it was truly on her first interactions with me that made such a great impression. Check out the photos on her blog so you can get an idea of her style of photography. This is another great feature she provides. While my husband and I were on our honeymoon we only got online to check out the pictures she posted of our wedding. It was so nice to get a sneak peak of our photos instead of having to wait for weeks on end for previews or final copies. It was also great to be able to share them with our family and friends.

Teresa did a fantastic job and was funny and sweet. As all other reviews I had read said, she did in fact go well above and beyond "the call of duty" to make the day special, ease my worries and stress... and most specifically in my case help me get into my dress! The pictures turned out better than we could have ever hoped - I would confidently recommend memories n more to anyone!

Teresa was amazing!! She did our engagement photos, rehearsal family photos, and wedding day photos! She truly captured every single moment of our wedding day perfectly! I have so many wonderful pictures the hardest part about working with Teresa is deciding which photos to keep! Teresa really went above and beyond for us! My mom has a very large family and I asked her if she would take a family photo of us Friday before the wedding. She was so great! She took a family pic and then pictures of each individual family! She was there for over an hour even though it was about 105 degrees outside! The day of the wedding she was right on time and took about 1500 pictures! She couldn't have been nicer or more pleasant to be around the whole day! As an example a few of my bridesmaids wanted pictures on their cameras and she even snapped a few pics with their cameras! She even stayed a little bit later than she was supposed to so we could get a picture of us leaving AND our wedding was on her husband's birthday! You will have a wonderful experience with Teresa, absolutely beautiful photos and all at a great price!
