Hi! I'm Scott. Wedding & Elopement Photographer, outdoor adventurer, & world traveler serving East Tennessee, Western NC and beyond! There's nothing I'd rather be doing than photographing special moments in beautiful places. I believe that providing great images goes hand in hand with building a good personal connection. It's important to work with someone you vibe well with! In my free time, I love hiking, biking, and rock climbing in the mountains—any chance to get out into nature and explore.

  • Serves Watauga, TN

Hi, I’m Emilee, the heart and soul behind Emijunesphotography! Based in Tennessee, I specialize in capturing life’s most precious moments through authentic and timeless photography. Whether it’s weddings, senior portraits, family sessions, or couples in love, I’m passionate about creating images that tell a story and evoke emotion. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m a full-time college student pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education with plans to become a teacher. In my spare time, I love exploring new creative ideas, connecting with loved ones, and dreaming up ways to make your photography experience magical!

My photos that day were so perfect and me and my family absolutely cherished them all. I’m currently having them framed and ordered right away and I’m so happy with how they turned out. I’m happy you were able to work with me and my family and I love how it was professional yet at the same time it was like connecting with an old friend. I highly recommend Emijunesphotography to newly weds and especially for those who have never had their photo taken professionally. Having your photo taken is such an experience, you feel important and cherished when you are captured with each photo. Reviewing my wedding photos made my husband and I fall in love all over again on that day. Made us reminisce our whole relationship and we are so happy with the outcome of this photography.

Hi!! I'm April and I specialize in professional wedding photography but I also love families, high school seniors, and newborn babies... what can I say... I really love it all. My favorite thing about photographing people is capturing true emotion. When you look back at a photograph, you remember how you felt at that very moment and that is so captivating! Capturing love is my passion and I put my heart and soul into every event! I've always loved the quote "Do What You Love and Love What You Do"!

I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Awarded Best of Zola
From first contact to wedding day, I am so happy to have chosen Elle and Co. and specifically Dani.  I couldn't be happier with communication, energy, and direction while taking photos.  Our Colorado elopement was beautiful and Dani helped with every step including finding a wonderful spot.  She kept us updated on weather and timeline so we had nothing to worry about and even hyped us up beforehand.  During my boudoir shoot she made extra effort to make me comfortable since I've never done anything like that before.  The pictures were so good and made the perfect wedding day gift for my new hubby.  Highly recommend Elle and Co. to anyone who has photography needs but especially if you think you might want to elope to a gorgeous spot and do a private event or if you want to take some boudoir type photos for a special gift.  She goes above and beyond with everything she does and you can't do better.  Thanks Dani!!

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.

No trends, no awkward poses. Just love, laughter and emotion.  While photographs are one of the few things you walk away from your wedding with, they aren’t the sole purpose of your event. You are there to get married, see your people, and celebrate this moment in your life. The photographs come far after that. This day is all about your love for each other. However you naturally stand together, embrace each other, whether you visit people on different sides of the room or hold hands all day, whatever story you tell on your wedding day is going to be preserved as such. Weddings are just love stories wrapped up into one day.

I’m Sam, a wedding photographer known for thoughtful details, images that feel effortless, and a calm presence. I’ve been photographing weddings across the U.S. since 2011. Most couples tell me they’re not comfortable in front of the camera, and that’s completely normal. I’m experienced at guiding people just enough to feel at ease. Outside of weddings, I’m usually at home with my husband and our three kids, which has taught me a lot about patience, flexibility, and staying calm when plans inevitably change. Skills that turn out to be very useful on a wedding day.

She had a calming presence and made sure to capture all the important moments, even working well with family members who can be difficult to photograph. Sam's personable nature and attention to detail were greatly appreciated as we navigated the busy wedding day. We highly recommend Samantha Lee Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

It felt like having a close friend capturing our day, not just a photographer. The photos are breathtakingly beautiful and so true to life— just authentic moments and natural colors that perfectly captured the feel of the day. Every time we look at them, it’s like reliving our wedding all over again. Eugene was a pro at blending in seamlessly—catching the little candid moments while still guiding us gently through the posed shots when needed. He made everything feel so effortless and fun! If you want stunning photos and a photographer who makes the entire process stress-free, we can’t recommend Eugene enough!

Veronica is INCREDIBLE! From the moment we met her at our engagement session, we knew we made the right decision! She came prepared with pose ideas and made us feel comfortable, even though it was our first time getting professional photos done. She gave us a timeline for when we’d receive photos back, and sent us a few sneak peaks the same night! She communicated with us between the engagement session and our wedding, helped put together a timeline for the wedding day, and made sure to capture everything I had envisioned! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Veronica for any photoshoot, and plan to hire her again in the future for photos!
