“Every single picture radiates joy. I look through them and I can hear the laughter again. They captured my maid of honor’s funny faces, my dad’s proud smile, even my grandma’s happy tears. I was scared I’d look stiff but I don’t at all. The photos feel alive. The video makes me smile so big every time I watch it. They used the music perfectly to match the feelings.

Love Knot Photography

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.”

“King is seriously a dream to work with! From the first time we talked, we just knew they were the right choice. He’s so down-to-earth and made us feel totally at ease, which was huge because neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera. He helped us with posing when we needed it (thank you for making us look like we knew what we were doing!), but also just let us be ourselves, which resulted in the most natural, beautiful photos. He totally captured the vibe of our day, especially the reception. The energy, the laughter, the dancing—everything was perfectly documented.

“From the moment my husband and I got engaged, we knew we wanted to work with Val and Kevin.

Leading up to our wedding day, Val was incredibly easy to communicate with. She even reached out to our DJ to coordinate timelines, which lifted a huge weight off our shoulders. On the wedding day, Val and Kevin made everything run smoothly and efficiently, ensuring we got the perfect photos and video. We couldn’t be happier with how all of our engagement and wedding photos turned out. Our wedding video completely blew us away—it beautifully captured every moment from the start of the day through the reception. Being able to relive our day whenever we want brings back so many emotions and truly makes us feel like we’re there all over again. I’ve cried happy tears every time I’ve watched it.

Hi, I'm Jess, and I run Jessica Smith Visual Arts, a professional photography business in the Quad-Cities area! I specialize in many forms of photography that is tailored to you and your theme with top notch quality!

“When we were looking for a photographer we were struggling so much to find someone that wouldnt break the bank, but wouldn't deliver crappy pictures either. When we found Jessica Boone Visual Arts, we were so excited to get such a reasonable price. I got even more excited when I spoke with her, because I am telling you, it was some of the best customer service I have ever had. Always willing to answer questions or make time for me whenever I needed whether it was a phone call or email. Jessica Boone did our engagement and our wedding photos. I was absolutely blown away with not only how the pictures turned out but also how patient, helpful, and fun she was!! After seeing only a few of our engagement photos, I knew I needed her for our big day. Jessica worked with me and made sure everything was perfect! (She and her assistant even helped with my dress SEVERAL times throughout the day! Oh, and fixing my husbands crooked bowtie.) All of our guests keep commenting on how jaw-droppingly beautiful our winter wedding photos are. I truly believe Jessica Boone is one of the most creative and talented photographers in the area! She will work with you on your dream photos... whether it's location, style, or simply being great in front of the camera. Thank you again Jessica for the most beautiful photos I get to enjoy forever. We would rate you 100 on a scale of 1-5, seriously.”

Jenna DeVille Photo + Film is rooted in documenting weddings exactly as they felt - not just how they looked. My approach blends documentary storytelling with romantic, editorial imagery to capture the quiet in-between moments, the big emotions, and all of the beautifully imperfect pieces that make your day yours. I want your photographs to feel nostalgic, honest, and timeless - the kind you'll look back on years from now and immediately remember what it felt like to be there.

“We had the privilege of having Jenna as our photographer for our engagement pictures, my bridal pictures, and my wedding on 9/12/26 and I could not be happier with the choices we made! Jenna is so much more than just a photographer; she was quite literally my backbone throughout the entire wedding planning process. From our engagement and bridal sessions to the wedding day itself, her work is breathtaking, but it is her heart and dedication that truly set her apart. She has an incredible ability to dissolve stress, even handling unexpected moments like removing a huge stain from my dress as if it were nothing at all. Not to mention her excitement shows in her turn around time, after my bridal session I received sneak peaks by the next afternoon! She has such a talent for capturing every moment perfectly creating pictures we will love for a life time. She has made my wedding something I could relax and enjoy rather than being stress. She willingly helped with so many “small” things to keep my day as smooth as possible. If you want someone who will do WHATEVER is necessary to make the brides day perfect, trust me she is your girl! I mean honestly, go look at her facebook to see the AMAZING work she does!! Beyond her talent behind the lens, she stepped in to manage my entire wedding timeline and supported me in countless other ways that I can't even fully express. It is so evident how much she loves her job, not just in the stunning photos she captures, but in her positive attitude and the way she carries herself. She is a complete professional and a wonderful human being who truly deserves the world. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

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.

“Diana Marie Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Diana's communication style was open, professional, and timely - she was always checking in to make sure our day was going as we had imagined. The quality of her work is truly exceptional, with a clean, timeless, and emotional style that captured all the special moments beautifully. Diana knows the importance behind wedding photos - they aren't just a social media dump, but rather the memories we'll cherish for years to come. She reminded us to take in the little things, and that thoughtfulness really shines through in the final product. We couldn't recommend Diana Marie Photography enough for any couple looking for a talented, dedicated photographer to document their big day.”

Welcome!! My name is McKenzie!! My story began back in 2017. What started as snapping photos of friends and family for fun quickly grew into passion. Fast forward a year, I decided to turn my love for photography into something even bigger. Lavenderie Photos was born, and I've never looked back! Since then, I've had the absolute joy of photographing over 100 amazing individuals and couples. Every session is a celebration, and every love story feels like the first all over again.

“Working with Lavenderie Photos was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication was fast and professional, making the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. They went above and beyond by driving four hours to our venue and staying late to capture our after party, which meant the world to us. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations and the pricing fit perfectly within our budget. What really impressed us was how quickly everything came back—sneak peeks within 24 hours and the full gallery completed in just three to four weeks.

My work is built on the idea that photographs are not just decorations, but inheritances. I’ll meet you where you are. awkward, giddy, tearful, reverent, undone - and we’ll co-create something beautiful. This is not a factory. It’s me, showing up with my whole heart to create something that feels true to you. If you want your story told with integrity, emotion, and reverence, you're in the right place. I'm so excited to meet you.

“Hiring Luca as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made during the entire planning process. From our very first conversation, I knew we were in the presence of someone not just with technical skill, but with a heart for people, and an artist’s eye for light and emotion. Luca somehow managed to be everywhere at once, catching every moment we didn’t even realize was happening. Her ability to capture the feeling of the day, not just the events, still blows my mind. Our sneak peeks came within 24 hours and made me cry happy tears all over again. The full gallery? I can’t even explain. We didn’t just receive photos. We received a gift that I’ll be showing my grandchildren one day, saying, “This was the day I married your grandpa.” Luca, thank you for treating our day like it mattered to you, too. For anyone even thinking about booking her: do it before someone else gets your date. Seriously.”

“Brandon was so easy and fun to work with from the first call to the day of the wedding! He captured our vision so well and relayed to message to his team, and they delivered. Chris and Blake actually shot the wedding day and we had just a good time! Chris was the best hype man and made us feel like superstar models the whole day. We had a fun time! Blake and Chris were so nice and carefree which helped us feel relaxed and like they were just two more friends there to celebrate us. We got the pictures back in such a reasonable time, as well! That was a nice treat because we couldn't wait to relive the day through the pictures :) Thank you so much to Brandon and his team (s/o Chris & Blake!) for capturing the magic of our favorite day!! I would highly recommend them to do the same for you!”

My approach to wedding photography is centered on real moments, thoughtful imagery, and the feeling of your day as it unfolds. I’m drawn to the people, relationships, and in-between moments that make your wedding uniquely yours, while also creating refined imagery that reflects the care you’ve put into how your celebration looks and feels.

“We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.”
