Hey, I'm Taliya, a wedding, portrait, & Engagement photographer with a Bright & Bold style!
For my regular portrait sessions that are an hour-long, you can expect between 40-60 photos in your final gallery. During an 8-hour wedding day with my second shooter included, you can expect about 600-800 photos in your final wedding gallery.

FAQ
How many photos
will I get back?
I do not currently have packages for smaller weddings, but that’s why I offer a la carte pricing because micro weddings and elopements can be anywhere from 2-6 hours.
Do you have packages for micro weddings and elopements?
Do you shoot destination weddings?
I sure do. I love traveling and I have my passport. As long as I am able, I would love to capture your love story abroad. Email me at smile@tmgreyphoto.com for special destination wedding pricing.
Currently, I offer regular portrait sessions that include headshots, as well as family portraits, maternity, proposals, graduation, engagements, anniversary, and any-time couples portraits.
What kind of portraits do you shoot?
What kind of venues have you shot at before? What if you’ve never done a wedding at our venue?
I have shot at venues across the east coast including the Gettysburg Bed & Breakfast, Fern Hill, the Historic Round Barn, The Barn at Stoneybrooke, Historic Shady Lane, and Melhorn Manor. Don’t worry if I’ve never been to your venue. I love new places. It’s very exciting to shoot at new venues, plus I have mastered finding the best lighting at any location. I always arrive early to check everything out and I do a lot of research about your venue, too.
I love taking photos of people with their fur babies! Just let me know ahead of time! I also ask that you bring an additional person per pup, along with some treats and toys to help get their attention.
Can I bring my dog(s)?
Do you have insurance?
Yes! TM Grey Photo has liability coverage through PPA. I can provide your venue with it upon request.
While I lean towards light and airy, I consider my style bright and bold! I love light natural colors with a bold, warm touch. I learned everything I know from my dad, one of my college degrees, and Katelyn James.
What is your style?
What are your COVID protocols?
During every session I come with hand sanitizer and I wear a mask throughout the entire session or during the wedding day. I take your health very seriously. If you have any special health needs, I am here for you. Just let me know how I can help.
Candid moments. I capture real moments that create lifetime memories. Of course, I am there to help guide through poses, but I capture the fun candid moment, too! My favorite thing is when a couple shares their new favorite photo on social media and they get so excited seeing it for the first time because they had no idea I took it.
Every little detail! I love the details. Seriously, I could spend hours upon hours on details alone. Although I will only spend about 45 minutes on the getting ready details and another about 30 minutes for the couple to get into their wedding attire. The first part of the day captures special day details such as the dress, jewelry, and invitations, while the reception details are captured during cocktail hour after the ceremony.
Communication is key! Once we are booked, I will be there for you all the way through the big day. I will help guide you on timelines for your special day, and be another set of ears when you need help planning or even another set of eyes for some wedding day decor!
Bright and bold editing! My style is not complete without my signature look. I love a light and bright edit with bold colors! I'd like to think it matches my brighter, bold, and colorful personality.
Hiring Taliya as our photographer was the best investment we made for our wedding. She was the best hype-woman! Taliya was able to make my husband and I, who never take photos together, feel so comfortable in front of the camera and even more importantly we've loved every photo she's sent us!

The absolute sweetest woman you’ll ever meet. She takes her time and is so patient with her clients. She made me so comfortable despite me being a pretty awkward person haha. She made me and my boyfriend look amazing and it was the most fun I had doing a photo shoot ever. Definitely will be going to Taliya for all my professional photography needs!!!

Taliya was amazing!!! She did our engagement shoot and our Halloween wedding and everything has been perfect. We've only received our previews so far for the wedding (but its only been a few days!) And everything looks incredible! She was kind, professional, and easy to get along with. She's got such a bubbly personality and really helped us be comfortable in front of cameras.

"THANK YOU TALIYA FOR TAKING STUNNING PHOTOS OF MY HUSBAND AND I. WE LOVED HOW YOU MADE US FEEL COMPLETELY COMFORTABLE AND ALWAYS HAD POSITIVE, UPBEAT ENERGY. WE CAN’T WAIT FOR ANOTHER SESSION!"

Taliya is a true professional and her attention to detail and quality of her work is impeccable. Taliya photographed our engagement and wedding sessions. Being of a plus size figure I was concerned with appearing ‘overweight’ but Taliya was able to beautifully capture photos that flattered my figure. Taliya has a natural ability to make photo sessions fun and relaxed for everyone involved. Everyone I spoke to throughout the reception repeatedly commented on how wonderful you were and how you literally did not stop shooting photographs the entire night, it truly shows your passion and dedication. You’re an amazing photographer but more importantly you are an awesome person and a wonderful companion to have on such a special day. We are so grateful for everything and will cherish the photographs you captured that tell the story of perfect day. Thank-you so much!
