The Best Classic Wedding Photographers in Knoxville, TN

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 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!

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!

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!

Welcome! I'm Hannah Campbell and I'm so glad that you're here!! I'm a photographer based in Knoxville, TN. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do, so take me somewhere!! I have been in the photo biz for 4 years now. I started off shooting families, seniors, and engagements, but from there, weddings began to take off. I love the outdoors and mountain photos are my absolute FAV. I love coffee, going on adventures with my sweet husband, and deep conversations with friends.

My comfort has always been in writing letters. There's something special about pouring your heart out on paper, being as open and honest as you can be, without the immediate gaze of another. Letters are timeless treasures. In my darkest moments, I've found solace in re-reading words from dear friends, reminders of love and support. Photography, to me, is like writing a letter, but instead of words, I use my camera. Each photo is a candid, heartfelt note, capturing the essence of a moment.
