  • Serves Slayden, TN

Hi, I’m Lex — a Tennessee-based photographer and the heart behind Rooted Acres Photography. With over a decade of experience and a deep love for storytelling, I specialize in capturing the natural, heartfelt moments that make your wedding uniquely yours. From teary-eyed first looks to laughter with your favorite people, I blend photojournalistic and fine art styles to preserve the feeling of your day. Rooted Acres is proudly veteran-owned, and I offer 15% off to all veterans as a thank-you for your service. Based in Lafayette, TN, I serve couples across Middle Tennessee and beyond. Let’s create something beautiful together.

For as long as I can remember, I had wanted to incorporate Pride and Prejudice into a birthday shoot for my 27th birthday. I’ve always been hesitant to book with photographers because I was always left wanting more out of a shoot. However, Lex knocked it out of the park. After discussing the ideas that I had, she jumped into the theme wholeheartedly! Not only did she make me feel beautiful, but she worked so hard to make me feel comfortable in my own skin. As someone who has never done a birthday shoot, this is one I will cherish for years to come. Lex is truly such a kind person, and she’s so passionate about what she does!! You will not be disappointed by booking with her!

  • Serves Slayden, TN

I am the owner and head photographer of Lu's Lens Photography. I do 95% of the work with the exception of the occasional 2nd photographer or editor. And hey, I know how to run a business, too! I graduated from Northwood University with a Bachelors in Business, but there's no teaching an eye for photography - I see the moment before it even happens. I build out all the wedding timelines with my couples, so I'm on top of your details just as much as you. I travel everywhere but mainly in Michigan and Tennessee.

I don't even know where to begin, Hannah is a ray of sunshine in human form. Not only, does she make being in front of the camera comfortable and easy, but she does so with humor and professionalism that cannot be taught. My husband usually turns into a cardboard statue in front of the camera, and within minutes he was comfortable, laughing and having a great time. This is all on top of the fact that her artistic, photographic style is unmatched. Her ability to take a sweet moment and turn it into art is a gift that lasts a lifetime. I have been fortunate enough to work with Hannah on all of our major life events and I will continue to do so until she fires me as a client. I love her and I promise you will too!

The Fosters Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Slayden, TN

It all began when Nick asked me to be his girlfriend when we were seven years old. Now years later we have found a mutual love in documenting moments you can treasure for years to come. When you look back at your wedding day, we want you to instantly feel that you are back at your celebration surrounded by your biggest cheerleaders.

Making the choice for our wedding photographers/videographers was one of the most difficult decisions for me. As a "creative" myself, I struggled with thinking that the quality wasn't going to be there or that I just wasn't pleased with the end results (harsh critic, what can I say?). When The Fosters delivered our gallery, I was blown away. Not only could I see the beautiful images, but I was immediately transported back to our day and could FEEL the story that it was telling - our story. Words can't describe how thankful I am to this dynamic duo. They go above and beyond for their clients! Even my husband, who is not a photo kinda guy, could not stop talking after our engagement session about how comfortable Nick made him feel and about how he loved that Parisa was hyping me up the whole time. Nick and Parisa go the extra mile, pay attention to the details, care for their clients, and are some of the most intentional people to be around. They truly support you as the couple and walk with you to cultivating the wedding photos and videos of your dream (actually BETTER than your dreams)! If you're in the market for a wedding photography/videography team, #1 CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement (marriage is the best!) #2 Look no further! These people are THE only choice.

With over 15 years of experience photographing weddings, engagements, and families, I bring a calm, easygoing presence to every shoot. My goal is always to make you feel comfortable and relaxed so your photos feel natural. Whether your event style is rustic, elegant, or somewhere in between, I’ll be there to document your day with care, creativity, and a genuine appreciation for the story that’s uniquely yours... I want to celebrate you!

Megan was truly such a pleasure to work with. I had so much trouble finding a photographer in the area in our price range, but her a la carte style packages were a blessing. Since I planned the wedding myself and haven't been to very many, I had no clue what I was doing when it came to a timeline for the big day. Megan was the one to help me "sketch out" what the day could look like and I was so happy to have some sort of direction! She was there every step of the way and answered any and all questions we had. And the pictures turned out stunning! We had a long list of shots we wanted to get that involved a lot of people, and she had no problem getting everyone together and posed (quickly too!). We got back a lot more pictures than I was expecting and had a hard time choosing our favorites. I'm so glad she was there to capture them. I will be recommending Megan to everyone I know for their photography needs!

Awarded Best of Zola
George Street Photography exceeded our expectations and made our wedding day even better than we could have hoped. From the start, they had us take a quiz to see which style of photography we liked most. Then, they gave us options of photographers that meet those criteria. Then, the photographers communicate with you directly and you fill out a form with all the details of your big day (and there were some things I probably would have forgotten without this!) They were extremely communicative and helped ease any concerns along the way. Not to mention, the price for not one but TWO photographers for my entire wedding was unbeatable! Our photographers were seriously the best and added so much life to our party! Towards the end of the night, one of our photographers, Jose, was on the dance floor with us being completely immersed and getting pictures that reflect exactly what it was like to be on that dance floor! And, we received all our pictures back in LESS THAN TWO WEEKS! This is absolutely unheard of, and was a great surprise! I will recommend George Street to all of my friends and family, and honestly anyone that will listen! They were absolutely incredible.

We couldn’t be happier with the incredible work Portraits by Sean did on our wedding day! From start to finish, he was professional, creative, and so easy to work with. Sean stayed until the very end of the night, capturing every special moment without ever making us feel rushed. One of the things we really appreciated was how he worked with the kids—getting them to smile and be comfortable without any stress. Their ability to blend in while also capturing candid, beautiful moments was outstanding. We were blown away by the quality of the photos, and they truly exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Portraits by Sean to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer to capture the magic of their day!

My name is Rabeeh and I'm new to ZOLA (you can see over 250 reviews on my Knot profile). When I first started taking pictures, I can honestly say that I didn't plan on becoming a wedding photographer. Most other photographers I socialized with would tell me how stressful and demanding wedding photography could be. Over a decade and numerous weddings later, I must strongly disagree! I want you to relax, breathe deeply, and experience every moment of your wedding with as little worry or concern as possible. A little about myself, I am an easy going guy who enjoys numerous hobbies ranging from collecting antique cameras to the art of bonsai.

Awarded Best of Zola
"OMG !! I can't even express how Rabeeh is so amazing and awesome !! We just got married on 4/22/17 and Rabeeh was our photographer. I will tell you he is kind, patient, and so understanding ! He respected our budget and was able to give us what we wanted. When Rabeeh was taking photos of us, family, and friends we didn't feel rushed , not so photogenic, they were natural, and that is what we wanted ! There were times he took pictures , didn't even know he was there, and he captured natural / real moments , we love it ! I will say from our first phone call with Rabeeh to actually meeting him, the vibe was very good, not uptight , and we decided right then we are going to book Rabeeh as our photographer ! If you are looking for a wedding photographer that is very kind, professional, and can blend in with all the whirlwind of a wedding , you have to book Rabeeh from Blue Dahlia Photography !! "

I’m based in North Georgia, but always happy to travel wherever the love (and the good vibes) take me... I believe wedding photos should be the kind you hold onto forever ..the ones that make you feel something every single time you look at them. If you’re loving my work and feel like we might be the right fit, I’d love to connect! I take on a limited number of weddings each year so I can really get to know my couples. You’re not just another booking to me.. I truly care about creating a connection, capturing your story, and hopefully becoming friends along the way (besties if we’re lucky!!

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
Hiring Michelle was the best decision ever! She was wonderful! There was clear and consistent communication from the beginning, and she went out of her way to always send us a heads up close to important dates. Neither of us had any experience with professional photography before this, and she made my husband and me feel right at home immediately. I also can’t stress how helpful she was on the wedding day, and how she managed to herd all of us cats with ease right on time with the schedule. And then there’s the photos. They are spectacular, vibrant and beautiful. Working with Michelle was like working with a close friend, she took the time to really get to know us and it shines through in every picture she took. We got back from our honeymoon and I had an email about our first look photos, they blew me away. I’m so excited to see the rest, and a little sad it’s all over! Michelle is an absolute joy to work with, I will definitely be reaching out to her again for any future photography needs.

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

We were thrilled with Sophia Osborne Photography for our wedding photos. Sophia was extremely professional in all of our communications leading up to the big day - she was organized, responsive, and helped us feel at ease. On the wedding day, she captured so many beautiful candid moments with her vibrant, creative style. The colors and lighting in both our portraits and reception photos are gorgeous and realistic. We were so excited when we got our sneak peek photos - they perfectly capture the joy and love from our special day. We can't wait to receive the full photo package and relive more memories.

We are a wedding + elopement duo serving the Nashville area + some other special places that make us happy. We can’t wait to meet you! We started capturing weddings through covid when we were stuck at home and needed to find some way to be creative. Savannah went to school for videography and Jon is an OG drummer turned videographer that has really enjoyed getting to create. If we aren’t celebrating you and your love story, you can find us at the beach, probably eating some yummy food, and missing our fluff ball kitty at home. We are so easy going and love to be spontaneous with our plans.

Savannah and John were responsive throughout the entire planning process and made us feel heard at every step. They guided us through poses so we looked natural in every shot, and their eye for capturing genuine moments really showed in the final images. From our engagement session to the wedding day, we got portrait-quality photos that we'll treasure forever. The sneak peeks alone had us blown away, and we're already planning to book them again for our one-year photos when we're back in Tennessee. We can't recommend Hopkins Co. enough—they turned our vision into something even better than we imagined.

Choosing someone to capture your wedding can feel like a lot of pressure. I had worked with Tabitha professionally in the past, but this was a whole different ballgame. She went above and beyond. She documented the day so beautifully that when I look back at the photos, I truly feel like I’m right back at the wedding. Tabitha is incredibly professional and talented—somehow everywhere at once—capturing precious moments without you even realizing she’s there. Looking back, I’m so grateful for all the little moments she preserved. I never doubted her, but she still exceeded every expectation. If you have the chance to work with her, you absolutely won’t regret it.

Hi, my name is Maria Davis! I am a documentary style photographer capturing love stories on both film and digital. I am a homegrown and local Winston-Salem, NC girl with a second location in Boston, MA. You can usually find me along the upper east coast, but I happily offer my services within the USA with $0 travel feels. If you are interested in working together, please visit my website to see a little more about me, my work, and how I can help you make your wedding day visions real.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you have the opportunity to work with Maria we recommend you take that chance while you’ve got it. She is an AMAZING photographer, fun to work with, and is so thoughtful/ helpful during the planning journey. We’ve already had a friend say they’d hit her up if they get married because they loved our experience and photos so much. 10000% could not recommend her enough. When we were looking for a wedding and engagement photographer we wanted someone who was creative in their shots, had crystal clear photo quality, and had a true to life/vibrant photography style - and Maria was the perfect fit! We had a phone consultation where she asked thoughtful questions to get to know us as a couple but also helped asked things related to photography to help us communicate our desires and ensure she was the right fit. Maria wants her couples to have the dreamiest day and I loved how intentional she was with helping us communicate our vision - she’s the pro and knew exactly what to ask to get us thinking! We were immediately obsessed and left in awe at some sample galleries, so we signed right away. When it came time for our engagement photos we had this super fun pre-shoot questionnaire that once again consisted of thoughtful questions (our planner was SO impressed with them), such as if there were any specific shots we wanted or our comfort level with photos. My now husband and I sat down with wine and went through the questions together, so that itself was a fun planning experience. We’re not the most comfortable in front the camera so it was cool to feel seen and have her understand us before we arrived to the shoot. And let me tell you we had the BEST time! We felt comfortable so quickly and the shoot flew by. The photos turned out AMAZING and we got even more excited for the wedding. Before the wedding we had a questionnaire to go over our desires for the wedding (and even had a chance to put secret info if you had any surprises for people or just wanted her to be aware of certain family dynamics you don’t want widely disseminated). On our wedding day Maria even handled a situation for us when we asked for help and she was the most discreet and professional and got us taken care of. We just got our full gallery back and the photos are the dreamiest - incredible sunset photos, creative and thoughtful detail shots, and excellent photos of our guests. The gallery captures our day perfectly and is everything and more than we could have asked for. Maria is timely, talented, professional, a cool person, and is someone we’d hire again in a heartbeat. Plus, she’s always down for an adventure so if you want to travel I’m sure she’ll be happy to meet you there and help make your photography dreams come true. We will cherish our engagement and wedding photos forever. All photos credited to Maria at MTD Photo Co.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Mae Krell Photo was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very first interaction, they were communicative, professional, and made us feel so comfortable and at ease. As a queer couple where one of us is plus-size, we were nervous about being in front of the camera, but Mae put us right at ease. The photos they captured are absolutely beautiful - they have such an artistic eye and really highlighted the love and joy of our special day. We had never had professional photos taken before, but Mae made the entire experience comfortable and affordable. We would highly recommend Mae Krell Photo to any couple looking for gorgeous, personalized wedding photography.

I was born and raised in the Philippines but now call Northern California my home. I've been a photographer for over a decade and that journey has made me come to realize that nothing makes me happier than making those behind my lens feel amazing about themselves. My goal is to be so much more than your photographer. I'd love for you to consider me your friend especially because we'll be spending a lot of time together on your wedding day. Trust me to help fix any strands of hair that get in your face, straighten out your outfits, help you pose, and encourage you to enjoy this momentous day.

We absolutely loved working with Tooney from our engagement shoot all the way to our wedding day. She was so nice, incredibly friendly, and truly one of the easiest photographers to work with. She made us feel comfortable the entire time, and the photos came out even better than we expected. We’re obsessed with how everything turned out! We 100% recommend Tooney — she’s amazing at what she does, and we would hire her again anytime we need a photographer.
