Artist profile

Tess Viera Photography

I have built a long-standing career in photography, offering a wide range of services including business portraits, corporate retreats, events, motorsport hospitality, weddings, and family imagery.
As well as being a photography myself, I oversee the full journey of photography projects for 23ONE Creative, from shoot planning and resource coordination to streamlined post-production and final delivery.
My focus is on building efficient, supportive workflows that enable our creative teams to do their best work. I collaborate closely with photographers, producers, editors, and account managers to ensure everyone is aligned and that every piece of content reflects both the creative vision and the client’s expectations.
I have worked with major brands such as Porsche GB and Formula E, as well as forward-thinking local businesses. I’m confident leading large groups and creating a comfortable atmosphere so people feel at ease and look natural in front of the camera.
I approach every brief with intention and dedication; producing content that aligns seamlessly with your brand, your style, and your objectives. My work has taken me internationally, and I’m comfortable navigating different cultures,  language barriers and abilities to achieve the results we’re aiming for.
I’m also committed to championing women in business, especially those working in male-dominated spaces.

Creative Genre

  • I’m a Brit/Colombian living in the beautiful Derbyshire countryside, and I’ve spent my career using storytelling, film, and photography to elevate people, especially women, whose voices deserve to be heard and seen. With a background in filmmaking and psychology, I’ve always been drawn to the way people express themselves, especially in spaces where they’re not always expected to take up space. I’ve worked in weddings, events, motorsport hospitality, and family photography
  • types of photography that might seem worlds apart, but all share one thing: a need for authentic, human storytelling. Whether it's capturing the raw emotion of a wedding day, the joy of a milestone celebration, the high-energy world of motorsport, or the drive behind women-led businesses, I aim to empower through creative, meaningful visuals. I offer photography for weddings, events, personal branding, and creative campaigns, with a particular passion for helping women feel confident and comfortable on camera. I know it can feel awkward having a camera pointed at you. (Trust me, I’ve been there.) My approach is relaxed, collaborative, and always focused on making you feel seen, not staged. My work is all about celebrating people, your stories, your growth, your joy, and I bring that energy to every shoot, whether it’s for a wedding, an event, a brand, or a businesswoman on a mission.
