A Morning Vancouver Backyard Session // Vancouver family photographer There’s something especially tender about mornings — the gentle light, the quiet hum of a new day beginning.

A Summer Family Session at Jericho Beach // Vancouver family photography Some of the most beautiful family moments happen when you follow the child’s lead.

At Home and Beyond: Capturing Real Family Life // Vancouver family photographer There’s something about photographing families in their own space, in the rhythm of their everyday life, that never fails to move me.

Dreamy Mother-Daughter Lavender Field Session // Family photos by Lorenza Tessari Photography There’s something truly magical about lavender fields in the summer.

BEHIND THE LENS
ABOUT LORENZA
I am a family, newborn and maternity photographer in Vancouver, BC where I live with my wife Ilenia and our two-year old daughter, Amelie.
Since I was a child growing up in Italy, I've had an unwavering love for photography. Some of my fondest memories are of afternoons spent flipping through my grandmother and mum's photo albums — collections of family vacations, weddings, and celebrations of life.
I’d get lost in the pictures, studying the details, and reliving those moments through the images. I remember rushing to the local photography shop with my disposable camera, determined to preserve as many memories as I could through film. Little did I know then, that my love for capturing moments would grow into a lifelong passion.
Fast forward to today, and my journey in photography has evolved from a personal hobby to a meaningful career. But at its core, the love I have for photographing life is still about preserving moments that matter. That’s what I bring to every session: a deep appreciation for the significance of the memories we make every day, and a commitment to capturing them authentically.
