Tessa is about to kick off her senior year at Hixson High School, and she’s doing it with a whole lot of heart, spirit, and style.
We met up for her early senior photo session to capture everything that makes Tessa — well, Tessa. From her years of cheerleading to her big dreams of becoming a paramedic, she’s got a heart for helping others and an energy that lights up every room (and every photo!).
Tessa described her style as casual, simple, and skater, and honestly? That vibe came through perfectly. Whether she was dressed up in her cheer uniform or chilling in a sundress out in the fields, everything felt so natural — nothing forced, nothing over-the-top. Just Tessa being 100% herself.
And bonus points? We spent the afternoon jamming out to Raelynn while shooting, which made the whole session feel even more like a highlight reel from her life. 🎶
What stood out most about Tessa (besides her megawatt smile)? Her kindness. Her goofy sense of humor. The way she cares about people — especially her family, which she told me she absolutely couldn’t live without.
Tessa has big plans after graduation: first becoming an EMT, then a paramedic — all while continuing to bring her energy and heart into everything she does.
Tessa, it was such a joy getting to know you and capture this amazing moment before you dive into your senior year. I can already tell you’re going to do incredible things — on the sidelines, in the medical world, and beyond.
Cheering you on every step of the way! 📣🚑
