Hi there

Thanks for dropping in! I'm Tinei McCaughey, the lady with dad jokes + smudged glasses behind the camera.

Photography is my passion, like everyone says, but it is something I discovered just a few years ago after the birth of my second child. My husband has always been my biggest supporter and had bought me a DSLR camera, telling me that I already take nice photos with my phone but should try it with a legit camera. Well, the photos turned out like garbage and I decided to just learn how to use the dang thing. A few online courses, in person workshops, mentor-ships, and a whooolllee loooot of trial and error, I just fell in love with it. I decided this was "my thing".

Fast forward to not very long after that, TMP was established in 2018 and I honestly haven't looked back. I love what I do, meeting and getting to know my clients, and the experiences that it has brought my way. I live for that moment when women gasp and say "Is that me?!", totally blown away by their own beauty. I love kids and their goofy expressions, authentic laughs and confidence to say no when they're just over having their picture taken then the silliness comes out. I love having a vision in my head and bringing it to life. I love the little pieces of every day life that you didn't even realize you hope to remember.

I hope to freeze this moment in time, to remember and cherish for years and generations to come. It's cheesy, but I believe in the power of a photo and falling in love with not only what you see, but what you feel.
