In high school, I was heavily involved in my high school theatre, sewing costumes, painting sets, applying SFX and stage makeup to the cast, and dancing in the chorus. I took these love and use them today in my photography. After high school (4014),  I took a year off, during which I modelled for my first pin-up shoot, falling completely in love.

Fall 2015 was when I started 'Tenille R Makeup Artistry' at the ripe age of 19, along with college for Art and Design. Even in my first week of college, I was rushing from classes to provide makeup on sets, and I was booked for whole summers with weddings. Eventually, the camera fell into my hands, and became my main focus. in 2018, I left college with a Bachelors in Visual Communications (graphic & web design, photography, etc).

​

My business has always been a complete obsession. I have a strong desire to show people how beautiful they are, and to create something meaningful that can be reflected upon for years into the future. The human body, to me, is both sexual, and non-sexual in nature, and I adore capturing both sides. I have created an unforgettable experience, unique individual to each client.

While some clients are seasoned models and dancers, others are every-day people who have never been more vulnerable in front of a stranger, and are taking a huge leap! 'Honoured' in the best word I can think of to describe how it makes me feel to be chosen by my clients.

From heavily needed, vulnerable moments with your body, to quick photos for your next ad, I am here to offer you the experience you need.

​

When I'm not behind the camera or editing, I enjoy costume making, pole dance training, taking dance classes, and re-arranging my vintage 120 year old apartment! I also work 3-5 nights a week, dancing as a stage entertainer at strip clubs!
