L.Morgan Photography is a wedding photographer for couples who want to experience their day together. I'm here to help bring your vision to life; from documenting the joy of your engagement to capturing the beauty of your wedding day and creating heirlooms that will be valued for generations.

From the moment we first spoke with Lara of L.Morgan Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Her professional, kind, and compassionate communication style immediately put us at ease. Throughout the planning process, Lara was incredibly thoughtful and prepared, walking us through multiple timeline examples and helping us prioritize the photos that were most important to us. As introverted couples, we were nervous about the photography process, but Lara made the whole experience fun, easy-going, and comfortable. She kept us on track with our timeline while allowing us to laugh through any unexpected challenges, like the rain on our wedding day. Lara's clear, inspiring, and comforting approach was invaluable, and the final photos exceeded our wildest expectations. We are thrilled to have these cherished moments captured forever thanks to Lara's incredible talent and dedication. She was truly an integral part of our wedding day, and we couldn't be more grateful for her kindness, patience, and expertise. I highly recommend Lara for any special moment - she put us at ease through the whole process, and her talent and passion is evident through her work. Thank you so much, Lara!!

Jess Pruett Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

Hi, I’m Jess! Based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, I specialize in candid, authentic wedding photography that captures how your day actually felt. Your wedding should feel like a celebration, not a hours-long photo shoot. My goal is to keep things relaxed and fun so you can feel completely like yourself in front of the lens. From quiet, emotional moments to high-energy dance floor chaos, I’m there to document it all naturally. When I’m not holding a camera, you can usually find me grabbing coffee, hiking, or hanging with my two dogs. Let’s create some magic together—send a message to check availability for your date!

From our first conversation, Jess made the whole process feel simple and straightforward, which really helped ease our nerves. She has a gift for making people comfortable—as someone who gets anxious in front of the camera, I never felt self-conscious around her. On the day of our wedding, she went above and beyond, jumping in to help with small things without being asked and keeping things running smoothly. Her editing style and vision are exactly what we hoped for, and looking at our photos, everything turned out better than we imagined. Jess was genuinely fun to be around, and honestly, we can't wait to book her again for future events. We'd recommend her to any couple looking for a photographer who is both talented and a pleasure to work with.

Hiya, I’m Michelle, your coulda-been-a-bridesmaid photographer. I cherish ALL forms 🌈 of human connection. The quiet hand squeezes, the belly laughs, the “holy crap we just got married” moments. For 13+ years I’ve captured weddings all over Memphis + the Mid-South with a bold, vibrant, heartfelt style that’s all about making you feel comfortable, confident, and completely present. From Memphis rooftops to garden ceremonies, I’ll be the bestie by your side through the big cheers, the quiet tears, and those wild dance floor moments you’ll never forget.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Michelle for our wedding resulted in an absolute dream from beginning to end! Pre-Wedding She has lots of things in place for both the couple who knows what they want and for those who may need a little more help with the planning process. Communication, from initial consultation to wedding day coverage, was consistent and thorough. On our wedding day, she caught lots of beautiful moments! If you are the type that may be worried that having a photographer would make me feel like you are being “watched” or pushed around, Michelle is a great person to work with. She has a gentle and accommodating nature that made every moment feel fun and natural, which is what we wanted! Michelle was also great about acknowledging the physical and emotional needs of our families (disabilities, sensitivities, losses, etc.) and that inclusive nature helped us and our guests feel comfortable so that she could capture the joy of the day!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Joe and Ashley! From start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with. Their warmth and friendliness instantly put us at ease, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. The calls before the wedding to go over details were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly on the big day. One thing that meant a lot to me was getting specific photos with certain family members and bridal party groups, and Joe and Ashley made that happen seamlessly. Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime! And if you’re on the fence about video—DO IT. Having a beautifully edited video with sound clips woven in so perfectly brought our wedding day back to life in a way that photos alone just can’t. The way they captured every little moment, every emotion—it’s truly priceless. Joe and Ashley are not just incredibly talented at what they do, but they also make the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who genuinely care, are highly organized, and will capture your wedding day in the most perfect way possible, look no further. We are beyond grateful!

Maria was the best photographer for our wedding! We chose her for her bright and vibrant style of photos and we couldn’t be more happy with our decision. My husband and I are not big picture takers and are not the most comfortable in front of the camera but Maria was the best person to walk us through the steps. We first met her for our engagement photos and she made the process so much fun. We all laughed so much and it made my husband and I that much more excited for our wedding! On the day of our wedding, Maria was energetic and welcoming to everyone. She gave clear directions and made sure everyone was comfortable. She sent us the perfect sneak peak photos as well. We got a few couple, bridal party, and detail pictures. I love how we got a sneak peak of the whole day and we cannot wait to the rest!
