Hi, I'm Rachel! I'm the photographer and heart behind R Photos, based in Chattanooga and serving couples across Knoxville, Nashville, the Smoky Mountains, and beyond. I've been photographing weddings and elopements for 8+ years, and I still get butterflies every single time. My approach is simple: document first, curate second. I'm there as a quiet witness to your day, capturing the real, unscripted moments as they happen rather than staging everything from scratch. All are welcome here, and I'd love to be part of your story.

I cannot recommend Rachel Kosky enough! From the very beginning, she made our elopement completely stress-free. She truly took care of every detail. All we had to do was show up after hair and makeup and enjoy our day, knowing everything else had been thoughtfully planned. She was organized, professional, and made the entire experience feel so easy and relaxed. As our photographer, she was also incredible to work with. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and our photos turned out absolutely beautiful—better than we could have imagined. The turnaround time was amazing as well. We received sneak peeks so quickly, and our full gallery was delivered much sooner than expected without sacrificing quality. If you’re planning an elopement or a small, intimate wedding, I wholeheartedly recommend her. She made one of the most important days of our lives as stress-free and enjoyable as possible, and we are so grateful for everything she did!

Hey there! I’m a wedding photographer with over 10 years of experience capturing real, true-to-tone moments that feel just as magical as they did on your big day. I’m all about blending professionalism with heart — because I truly care about my couples and making sure they feel seen, celebrated, and completely at ease in front of the camera. From laughter to happy tears, I’m here to catch it all while keeping the vibe fun, upbeat, and totally stress-free. Let’s create memories you’ll cherish forever!

Choosing the right wedding photographer was one of the most important decisions we made, and Rachel exceeded every expectation we had. My daughter and her husband had a very specific editing style they were looking for, while I was focused on ensuring we would receive a large collection of high-quality images to preserve these memories for years to come. Rachel delivered on every front. What truly set Rachel apart was her ability to connect with the moment. At times, it felt as though she was part of our bridal party, sharing in the excitement, joy, and emotions of the day. Yet at the same time, she and her team mastered the art of being present without ever being intrusive. They blended seamlessly into the celebration, allowing everyone to be fully immersed in the experience while still capturing every meaningful detail. Rachel beautifully documented the essence of the wedding, preserving not only the major moments but also the genuine emotions and interactions that made the day so special. Her professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process. Thank you, Rachel, for helping us preserve memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. If the sneak peeks are any indication of what is still to come, you absolutely knocked it out of the park. We cannot wait to see the final gallery and would highly recommend Rachel to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Their romantic vision for our wedding really shined through in the photos—they captured every detail we cared about and so many beautiful moments we didn't even know we'd need.

We couldn't be happier with Austin Angel Photography and would recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer who gets it.

Hey There! I’m Hannah - an Intimate Wedding Photographer originally from the coast of Virginia but stumbled my way to the North Georgia Mountains which I now proudly call home! I love finding new adventures while exploring new places! I started my Photography journey capturing families but soon realized that my heart was completely drawn to capturing love & the bond that two people share! I describe my photography style as more Candid & Story-Telling driven with a soft, nostalgic film influence! I have a strong focus on genuine emotions over stiff posing, capturing the intimate in-between moments that just feel natural and timeless!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hannah and Ivanna were truly a dream team. They traveled all the way from Georgia to capture our little mountain wedding in Wyoming, and we couldn’t have asked for better photographers. From the very beginning, they brought such a calm and joyful energy. They never rushed us—just let the day unfold naturally and beautifully, capturing every meaningful moment as it came. And they didn’t stop at taking photos—they even jumped in to help with setup! Who does that? Just the coolest, kindest people. Every photo in our sneak peek feels like it’s out of a storybook. The colors, the emotion, the composition—each one captures not only the landscape but the love and joy of the day. I’m in absolute awe of their talent, & their editing is perfect. If you’re looking for photographers who go above and beyond and somehow make time stand still, I can’t recommend HLS Photography enough. We’ll treasure these photos forever. Thank you, Hannah and Ivanna, for capturing us so perfectly.

Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Diana was a pleasure from start to finish. The photography was one of the most important aspects to me, because I wanted every detail to be captured perfectly - and wow, did she (and her second shooter) do just that. Not only did her pictures capture all of the emotions, details of our wedding, and perfectly captured our friendships, families, and love but they went above and beyond to care for my husband and I throughout the day. Running for water, fanning to keep me cool, and even scrubbing my dress with all of my bridesmaids in a small bathroom after a drink was spilt on it. Her services go beyond just our big day, Diana is someone who has cared for us even after our wedding and continues to reach out. If there was one vendor I would specifically recommend, it would be Diana.

Hi, I’m Lathrop, and I run LY Photography Co. with my wife, Yana. I’ve been shooting for over seven years, and before starting this business, I led photography and videography for an Inc. 500 company.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our special day! From the very start, they were incredibly flexible with our early morning wedding schedule, making everything feel seamless and stress-free. They went above and beyond to engage the kids and get them smiling in the photos — which is no small feat! Their ability to organize and capture every important moment in a timely and efficient way was so appreciated, especially with so much going on. On top of that, they were unbelievably kind to everyone at the wedding — so many of our guests were raving not only about how amazing the photos turned out, but also about how lovely and genuine the photographer was to be around. Communication leading up to the day was excellent, and we always felt in good hands. We’re absolutely thrilled with the photos — they perfectly captured the joy, love, and magic of the day. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone talented, professional, and truly caring.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing the right photographer is a big deal—truly one of the decisions that can make or break your entire experience. We met Nathan at the very beginning of our journey, during our engagement shoot at the Biltmore Estate. We were both nervous, awkward, and completely unsure of what to expect. Then Nathan arrived, and everything changed. Within minutes he had us laughing, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying ourselves. That was the moment we knew he wasn’t just talented—he was special. So when it came time to choose someone to capture our wedding in Sedona, we took a chance and asked if he would fly out. Honestly, we thought it was a long shot… but he immediately said yes. And thank goodness he did. I will never forget the moment he walked into the room on my wedding day. I had just started feeling that wave of nerves while finishing my hair, and the instant Nathan stepped in, I felt completely at ease. How does he do that? He has this quiet magic about him—an ability to ground you, hype you up, and disappear into the background all at once. His passion is infectious. His eye for intimate, meaningful moments is unreal. And somehow, while capturing every single one of those moments, he manages to remain practically invisible. When we received our gallery, we both laughed, cried, and sat there in awe. It felt like reliving the day, but through the lens of someone who truly understood us. To put it simply: Nathan is gifted. Exceptionally, unmistakably gifted. We even showed our engagement photos to another top-tier photographer, and her reaction was: “Book him immediately. His editing is some of the most incredible work I’ve seen—I want to talk to him myself!” If you're reading reviews trying to decide who to trust with your memories, stop here. You’ve found the one. Nathan exceeded every expectation we had—and then ten more we didn’t even know we should have. He is the best of the best.

Every couple deserves wedding photos that are magazine quality.

Looking at our pictures it seems like she was everywhere all at once…I wouldn’t trust anyone else with your special day or event.

Every wedding has its own rhythm. I’m inspired by the way a great film makes you feel like you’re actually inside the story — the anticipation before something happens, the quiet moments between people, the movement, the atmosphere, and the unexpected frames you could never have planned. I photograph weddings with that same instinct, moving with what’s already unfolding rather than forcing the day into a shot list or manufacturing moments. I’m drawn to interesting light, real connection, imperfect details, dramatic environments, and those fleeting moments that happen between everything you thought you were going to photograph.

Awarded Best of Zola
After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

TLDR: she is talented, professional & kind very helpful as someone with limited mobility. Tessa & her team photographed & recorded my wedding last weekend, and they were a dream to work with. I am chronically ill & so I knew on my wedding day I could not be running around to different locations for photos, and Tessa was extremely mindful of that fact & made sure to work within the parameters of what was doable for me. I was worried my limited mobility would mean my photos would be a little boring, but she's already sent a handful of pictures over for a sneak peek & they are GORGEOUS. Tessa is a true professional but also someone who clearly loves what she does, which I think really shows in the quality of her work. Could not be more glad to have had her & her team document my special day! :)

Candy was very responsive and clear about everything, which made planning so easy. On the day of our wedding, she had this infectious energy that put everyone at ease—especially during those one-on-one shots that can feel awkward. Her photos are stunning; the candids capture real moments and the posed shots look like they belong in a magazine, with colors that just pop off the page. She went above and beyond to catch every beautiful and silly moment, which is exactly what we wanted. Candy is genuinely so incredibly talented and made our day feel special. We'd recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who actually cares about their couples and delivers incredible work.

We started with an engagement shoot to get to know him, which I highly recommend. Throughout the process he was a great communicator, and always helped with any questions. When it came to the wedding day he was super organized, and stayed on our timeline which was great. Most importantly, the pictures are beautiful!! 10/10

Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!
