Amanda May Photos

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.

My wife and I reviewed several photographers recommended to us for our wedding at The Magnolia Venue. After narrowing it down and interviewing three, we decided to go with Amanda May and we're SO GLAD we did! Amanda was so patient with us throughout the process and even helped us make some decisions outside of her responsibilities. We felt an instant connection with Amanda, allowing us to be comfortable, relaxed and ourselves. We went back and forth on whether to hire a videographer and instead decided to go with her sister-in-law Devin Fothergill (@Content_by_Dev) and have tons of raw video footage capturing candid moments and reliving every moment of our wedding day. 10 of 10, HIGHLY RECOMMEND Amanda May and her great team your wedding!

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.

Have Some Patience Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day photography. From the very beginning, their communication style was timely, positive, clear, expressive, and collaborative.

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. Our style is classic and documentary, with a touch of razzle dazzle mixed in. Our edits are clean and bright, and are reflective of the day. 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!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have worked with Quinn as a wedding venue owner and as a customer, and I cannot praise her enough. Quinn has an amazing eye, and her photos are light and dreamy. As a venue owner I can say that Quinn does is attentive and professional with brides and is always generous in sharing and tagging her work (which I really appreciate). As a personal customer I can attest to her delightfulness and skill. She will talk you through poses, make you feel like the rock star you are, pick bugs off your dress, and get those candid moments that you want to remember.

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.

We had a tighter budget for our wedding, so we went with the "Wedding Moose" tier. The customer service was excellent from when we first started consultations, all the way through to the big day! Our photographer was amazing, and we couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out! I also highly recommend getting a videographer. We asked to add a videographer just a month before the wedding and we are so glad we did!

I without a doubt did the right thing by hiring Jones Media and choosing both Regina (photographer) and Kevin (videographer) to shoot our vow renewal at Paddlefish at Disney Springs in Orlando, FL. They both brought the energy and the hype, and they have the absolute best personalities. They were incredibly professional the entire time, and I had no idea that they had never worked together before my event! They collaborated seamlessly, bouncing ideas off one another and making everything even more perfect. They honestly didn’t feel like hired vendors—they felt like guests we invited who were having just as much fun as we were, while still staying completely on task. To top it off, they are complete lifesavers. The night before our renewal, we hit a major hiccup. Due to a last-minute policy change at our Disney resort, our third-party vendors were suddenly not permitted on the property. With no other choice, I had to cancel our resort reservations late at night and move everything back to my parents' timeshare. I immediately messaged Kevin and Regina about the last-minute location change. The next morning, they both showed up right on time and completely ready to go. Because we kept our original timeline, the new location meant we were a little farther away from the venue, but neither Kevin nor Regina ever made us feel rushed. We just pivoted, and they went completely above and beyond—even staying a little past their scheduled end time to make up for the chaos the night before. In the Disney world, we call that Pixie Dust, and they definitely brought it with them. If I had to do this all over again, I’d choose them again and again. I can’t wait to see how the final photos and video turn out. Thank you, Jones Media!
