The idea of choosing your photographer should not stress you out. Rather, you need to have fun with the process. After all, it's your day I am there to make sure you don't forget it.

If you are considering either a wedding or an elopement, don't skimp on a quality photographer for your special day—capturing the memories is just too important. While based in Knoxville, I love to shoot in all of East Tennessee.

There is not a good or bad reason for wanting to walk down the aisle to your awaiting spouse, dance with your father, and party into the wee hours of the morning. Or wanting to get embarrassing photos of your friends on the dance floor! I mean, who doesn't love a good blackmail? There are tons of reasons why couples over the centuries choose to celebrate their marriage with a wedding celebration. Here are a few reasons to go with a wedding:
Knoxville is a popular area for weddings. Not only is the area amazing, but the Smokies are beckoning you to celebrate nature's beauty. What makes me unique among area photographers? Awesome question! I focus on you and the vibe of the day. I like to have fun and capture the raw beauty that is your wedding day celebration. My goal at the end of the night is to make sure you are happy. We enjoy each other's company while I work to capture your day, your way.
She is so talented and was so easy to work with. As I was planning our wedding, it was really important to me that I find a photographer that would be understanding of our unique situation. Not only were we having a destination wedding and planning it in the midst of Covid. But we were also going with a venue that had not even been built yet. Needless to say, I was that bride that had a lot of questions. Erin was so easy going about everything and went above and beyond to answer them. Of course on the day of our wedding, the weather wasn't ideal, as it rained most of the day/night. But that didn’t stop Erin from capturing some amazing photos. She also had the best attitude about it and it didn’t even phase her. Erin’s down-to-earth personality really allowed us to enjoy the day and I think that shows within her work. Our photos turned out incredible and she was able to capture some really beautiful moments. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives.”

We love the unique settings that our city provides, and we took the opportunity to compile a Knoxville Wedding Venues page for your convenience! We have chosen all sorts of venues! You can see a list ranging from the large to the intimate venues, rustic to modern, and rural to urban! We will be adding to this list in the coming weeks, months, and years!
Remember, there are so many amazing locations in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Townsend, Sevierville, and Wears Valley that are perfect for a “smoky mountain elopement.” Find the place that speaks to you! This mid-century mod location was perfect for Alaina and Travis.
And then…hire me to photograph it! Duh. Easy peasy 🥰

Some of these photos span the course of eight years.
And through my years as a wedding photographer I have learned that trends change but sisterhood is forever.
Here’s to the women who stand by their friend through thick and thin…and get her married! And help keep her married through a lifetime.
May your friendships last long after the flowers are gone 🫶🏻

We all know who’s in charge 😉
I spend so many days with amazing planners, florists, bartenders, DJs, and more. Knoxville and the Smokies truly has some of the best wedding no professionals around.
But, let’s talk photo and video. Hanging with second photographers and videographers by my side for the entire days is truly a treat. Never underestimate how fun wedding can be when we are all there together to truly give the best experience for our wedding couples.

The first half of 2026 has been such a wonderful adventure. It’s hard to put into words just how different each session and wedding can be. One day I’m spending 10 hours in the mountains photographing a wedding, and the next I’m chasing a toddler around a park just a few minutes from my home.
There’s one thing that has always been true about this job: every session is different. Every wedding is different. Every couple, every family, every story, every edit brings something new.
I’m just incredibly grateful for all the different that fills my world. Thank you for trusting me with your memories, your milestones, and the moments that make each day unlike the one before.
You may notice I’m a little quieter on social media over the next month.
In a digital world, while raising a tween, I’ve realized my face needs to be looking at hers more than it needs to be looking at my screen. My phone is going to spend a lot more time on the charger while I spend more intentional time at the pool, embracing this hot weather and soaking up these different kinds of summer days with my family.
The work will still be here. The emails will still get answered. Weddings and sessions will get booked (I’m still HERE).
But these summers? They don’t last forever.
