The Perfectly

Imperfect Couple

 

 

If that describes you, then I am your Knoxville Wedding Photographer.

As a Knoxville Wedding Photographer, I believe each of you has a unique story to tell—

whether that’s a cozy elopement or a knock-your-socks-off celebration.

Your day is what you make it, and I’m here to support every moment.

As a Knoxville Photographer, I embrace the offbeat, heartfelt, and wonderfully flawed moments that tell your authentic story. If you’re looking for someone who celebrates who you are as individuals and as a couple without pushing a one-size-fits-all wedding narrative, I’m here for you.

Let’s capture your day in a way that’s unapologetically you—

no forced poses, no stiff smiles, just an honest reflection of your perfectly imperfect love.

Let’s do the dang thing!Feel free to contact me Arrow Icon Black Long

Ya’ll. Surprise proposals are tricky!

When Nick reached out to me we communicated a LOT about his proposal to Alyssa.

We first started talking about going to Cades Cove but in March, the weather is unpredictable. I asked what he would like to do after the proposal and if there would be dinner plans…and my brain immediately went to @dancingbeartn.

Just near the Townsend entrance to the GSMNP, this venue has the cutest gazebo and even better food. I reached out to their coordinator and she held their date and time for me! I picked up Nick’s flower order from @melissatimmdesigns and away I went!

Everything turned out so well, and of course, she said YES.

If you’re looking to propose in the East Tennessee area, give this girl a CALL ❤️
