As a Chattanooga wedding photographer, I’m passionate about capturing the emotional, fleeting moments that make your special day unique. Whether it’s the breathtaking beauty of an epic landscape or the quiet, intimate exchanges—the knowing glances, the way he gently lifts the hem of your dress—it all becomes part of a beautiful story I aim to tell through my lens. Each moment is like a time capsule, preserving not just what happened, but how it felt. I believe these memories should be cherished forever.

      Over the years, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to photograph weddings in a variety of settings, from remote, wild landscapes to the cozy, sacred spaces of people’s homes. Along the way, I’ve met wise grandmothers, snuggly pups, and fun-loving uncles who bring so much personality and heart to these moments. Every wedding is different, and it’s these personal connections that make the experience so special for me.

      I love every part of a wedding day—the nervous anticipation, the laughter, the tears, the spontaneous joy, and yes, the messy, chaotic moments that make it all feel so real. It’s a privilege to be a part of something so important, and I work hard to document every emotion and detail as your Chattanooga wedding photographer.

      My love for photography started when I was 7, after my uncle gave me my first camera. I became obsessed, constantly asking for film and saving up to get my photos developed. By sixth grade, I knew I wanted to be a photographer, even if I didn’t quite know how to pronounce it! After studying film photography in college, I shot my first wedding right after graduation. What I thought would be a one-time event turned into a lifelong passion. That was eight years ago, and I’ve been dedicated to building my business ever since. The rest, as they say, is history!
