Teresa was born in Raleigh, North Carolina, attending school at NC State. Her interest in photography began as a child, and has continued until becoming a primary focus in 2004.

She has always worked in the printing industry, while continuing to photograph the people and places around her. Currently a student at Duke's Center for Documentary Studies, Teresa can often be found around town, camera in hand, looking for her inspiration in the ordinary.

Her photos have been displayed in various exhibits and galleries and in private and public collections, including the Umstead Hotel in Cary, Buku (restaurant in downtown Raleigh) and CarolinaEast Medical Center in New Bern.

What photography means to her:

Photography is powerful.

It can preserve a moment, a glance, an action, a place, even an emotion exactly as it was. This has fascinated me since I first picked up a camera as a child, and I continue to enjoy discovering the beauty in the ordinary through photography. However, the art of photography is much more than simply capturing an image; it can be one of the most personal and revealing art forms. Looking at someone's photographs, you are forced to see the world from their perspective - a glimpse into the things that have inspired the life of that artist.

I find my inspiration in nature, and in capturing the magic of the people, places and things in our daily lives.
