Amanda May Photos 
Rating: 5.0 (36 reviews)
Knoxville, TN
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,495

I could give you my spill about how I started shooting with a film Minolta in middle school and that it tugged my heart so deeply I never set the camera down. But I would rather share with you what I love. What I enjoy. What I'm about. I have a passionate soul. I get way too excited too easily. I smile at just about anything. I'm terrible with names. I'm a retired certified public accountant. I'm allergic to dogs. I own WAY too many shoes. I want a tattoo of a vintage camera. I love what I do so much it takes my breath away. This is me. The real me. Not the "fake, I hope I sold you" me. Now let's see if we can make this thing work.

BOOK AMANDA MAY PHOTOS! See long review below: My husband and I are from Florida and wanted to get married in Tennessee. Upon looking at venues, we fell in love with Castleton Farms. With our package we had two specific photographers that were included and both ended up being unavailable. I had done research on the vendors listed and Amanda was one of my top picks. By what I felt like was grace of god and met to be, while most of the photographers on Castleton’s list were booked, I reached out to Amanda and she was available! It was honestly one of the BEST decisions we made when picking vendors. Amanda and her team: Amanda and her team are absolutely amazing to work with! Amanda creates a friendship with you and makes you feel so comfortable! She sent us AMP guides for her photography and what to expect. Juan and I read through everything and felt so comfortable and excited. She also gave us insight on specific engagement and wedding things - first looks, outfits, how to make a veil fly and more. She sent us gifts as well! She really thinks of everything and is so sweet. Working with Amanda for engagement/wedding shoots: I’ve worked with photographers in the past and it’s always stressful when they ask you what YOU want to do for photos. Amanda is the first photographer we have worked with that does not do this. She tells you everything to do to capture the most BEAUTIFUL photos and tell your love story. She will tell you where to place your hands or tell you to spin or dip. She takes all the stress out of photos and that’s when Juan and I really fell in love with working with her. Photo shoots with Amanda are enjoyable and not stressful at all! We had such a fun time with her both engagement and wedding day! The Quality of AMP The photos from Amanda and her team speak for themselves. They look straight out of a wedding magazine and honestly look unreal they are so stunning! We are so excited to decorate our house with Amanda May Photos - both engagement and wedding! Her print quality is amazing as well - we ordered from her for our engagement photos to use as decorations for our wedding. We also made a guest book with her that turned out beautiful!! I cannot recommend working with Amanda May Photos for professional photography enough. Trust that Amanda will capture any point in your life whether it’s engagement, wedding, graduation, maturity photos, family photos, and more. She also has many other great options. You will absolutely not be disappointed! Amanda is such a sweetheart and really has felt like a friend to us during this process! We cannot wait to work with her again in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Jeff to take photos for an intimate outdoor ceremony (us and 12 guests). The planning process was easy and stress free. Jeff slotted himself into the day seamlessly to capture candid moments in the ceremony and the time leading up to it. He was familiar with the venue (Ijams Nature Center) and we took a jaunt through the park after, where he was able to direct us to some of his favorite spots to take photos throughout. Jeff matched our vibe perfectly and made us feel comfortable and genuine throughout. And--of course--the photos came out beautifully.

Patience went above and beyond to make our wedding day the most special day of our lives together. From the very beginning of our wedding planning journey, she grabbed coffee with us and got right down to business, helping us cover all of the details that would bring our vision to life. Her communication throughout the entire process was excellent and very straight forward. When it came time for the big day, Patience came EARLY to map out our scenes for the day and make sure we had everything we needed. I cannot tell you how much it meant to have a photographer that truly cared about making this day the best and least stressful experience possible. As a bride, the day can be extremely overwhelming, but Patience put me and my husband first and constantly made sure we were doing okay. She captured every detail and more, she celebrated us at the reception, she danced with our family and friends, and she ensured we ultimately were happy and taken care of. Patience was absolutely phenomenal and I would not hesitate to recommend her to the next couple. Additionally, her pricing is beyond reasonable, especially for the quality of work that she produces. I cannot wait to work with her again for our future life milestones. THANK YOU PATIENCE!!

I've been shooting professionally since 2016 - I love people, and being apart of these beautiful and monumental moments while doing what I love is the joy of my life. My husband shoots 35mm film photography while I capture digital - it's the best of both worlds!

Grace Costigan Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke, Grace was clear, kind, and professional in her communication. Her work is absolutely beautiful, with a natural, film-like quality and she made us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Grace took our engagement photos, which ended up being the perfect photos for our wedding announcements and welcome table display - they still make us smile every time we see them hanging in our home. She has a true talent for capturing the joy and warmth of a couple's relationship, and we are thrilled with the way our wedding photos turned out. We highly recommend Grace Costigan Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, skilled photographer who will make you feel at ease on your big day.

We're Jesse & Quinn, a husband and wife photography duo based out of Knoxville, TN. And holy sh*t, we LOVE love. We've been photographing the heck out of joyful couples since 2014.

When we're not shooting weddings, we're likely renovating our farmhouse...ooooorrrr binging The Office. We've been both nominated as and won Knoxville's Best in various publications, but only because we serve the most incredible clients ever!

My name is Chelsey and I have been running around with a camera in my hand since I was knee high to a grasshopper. I used to beg my dad to use his 35mm Minolta film camera to take photos of everything under the sun and when he would allow it, the biggest gap-tooth grin you’ve ever seen stretched across my little face and everything else disappeared besides me, my camera, and my subject. Fast forward to today, not much has changed besides the gap-tooth and my own digital cameras! My first wedding was shot in 2011 and I slowly made this into my full-time job! My passion is to capture your unique love in images you will cherish forever!

Chelsey is one of the best out there! Her work is amazing, she cares about her clients, and is easy to work with! I would 100% recommend her! She has photographed my wedding and my daughters one year old pictures! The pictures I have received have always been beautiful!

Hi! We are Hannah Joy and Jordan. Mr and Mrs Brown. Fur parents. Soul mates. Team mates. We absolutely love what we do. It shows in everything from how we shoot, to how we interact with you, to our final photos. You need a friend and a professional on your wedding day…That's us! We consider it a huge blessing to do what we love for a living. Our style is bright, happy, true to color.

I found Hannah and Jordan through instagram and immediately fell in love with their work. In meeting with Hannah about traveling to Boston I knew she would be a perfect fit for our beachy wedding in Massachusetts. She was able to bundle everything for us and we were able to even use our points to book them flights to make it more cost efficient. Hannah asked us to book for the day before the wedding in the morning so they had time to make changes if something happened with their flight—and thank GOD for that. The morning before the wedding I got a text from Hannah that their flight was delayed and they wouldn’t make their connection. They were immediately on the phone with the airline finding a way to get here. They kept in contact the whole time and flew into a different airport entirely and had to drive further to get to our venue, they handled everything and I wasn’t worried for a moment. The actual day of the wedding was amazing. Hannah worked with me while Jordan worked with Tom (my husband) and when we came together for our first look and group pictures they were so in sync making sure to get every shot imaginable. When Hannah delivered our sneak peak I felt like I was reliving the best day of our lives. I cried immediately looking at the pictures and what they were able to capture. When we got all of the pictures back (8 weeks after the wedding which was earlier than we expected!) we loved everything they captured. There were also so many wonderful pictures of our family dancing the night away which we were thrilled with! We just had the most amazing time working with them, Hannah jumped on the dance floor with me and my bridesmaids towards the end of the night for “the wobble” and she truly felt like a friend by the end of the day.

I've been a wedding photographer for over half a decade, documenting hundreds of love stories. One of my favorite things to do is learn about each of my couples, how they met, what they love about each other. It lights me up to be a part of each and every one of your celebrations. I see my couples as more than just clients, they become my friends. It's my goal to serve everyone with my whole heart!

Lauren Hanthorn Photography was an absolute dream to work with for engagement photos and our wedding day! From our very first interaction, Lauren was personable, responsive, and thoughtful, and made us feel valued and important as clients. The quality of her work is simply priceless - her documentary style captured the natural, candid, and intentional moments of our special day in such an authentic and beautiful way. As I planned my Tennessee wedding from New York, Lauren was incredibly helpful, offering vendor recommendations and even volunteering to be my boots on the ground if I needed anything done while I wasn't in town. When my husband and I look back through our wedding photos, it's like we're reliving the best day of our lives all over again, and Lauren's talent has preserved those precious memories for us. We could not have chosen a better person to document our story.

Ever since I was young, I always loved taking photos and capturing moments of happiness, big and small, in the lives of others. This passion grew throughout high school and college, but it wasn't until my senior year at the University of Georgia that I truly believed that this hobby of mine could be transformed into a business. Veronica Katherine Photography started in the spring of 2020, and I am incredibly proud of my business and all it stands for. I am so thrilled to now be doing what I love with people that bring so much joy to my life! I am based out of Knoxville, Tennessee but will travel anywhere that your love story takes you!

Hey friends! Our names are Andrea & Chris and together we not only make one heck of a photography team, but also a life team! We got married on October 4, 2019 and have one fur baby, Luna - we may be biased but she is the cutest little rescue pup in all of the land. A Friday night complete with carry out and a RomCom is typical, but don't worry because you can also find us hitting the Hanna's dance floor or tailgating as we cheer on our Volunteers! We always support a solid Mexican restaurant style cheese dip and you can never go wrong with a little reality TV.

Andrea and Chris are two of the best photographers out there. They are so fun to work with and captured our wedding day perfectly. They are organized and make sure that they get the shots but also don't make you feel rushed or like you're missing out on your party. They work seamlessly with other vendors. On top of all of that, they don't leave you waiting. They had a preview available AT THE WEDDING for guests to view during the reception. Then we had our sneak peek gallery less that 24 hours later. And finally, our full gallery just over a month after our wedding. They are top tier in every aspect.

Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!
