We had a great time working with Ashley for our wedding! When we first booked her she was communicative and quick to answer any questions we had. She helped out with our timeline and went above and beyond to make sure our day ran smoothly. We ended up having to adjust our timeline the day of due to some delays at our venue and Ashley was flexible and still able to get to all of the couples portraits we wanted. My husband and I are not the best at taking photos lol but Ashley was easy to work with and we got some great candid as well as posed shots. The photos turned out beautiful and there are SO many to choose from. Ashley also kept us updated throughout the editing process. Highly recommend booking her!

Hanna Rain Photos & Film

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Wilmington, NC

Hello & welcome! I’m a film-forward wedding photographer and videographer in Tennessee, capturing real moments and timeless imagery. I blend digital with 35mm film and Kodak Super 8 to create work that feels nostalgic, imperfect, and deeply human. My documentary approach lets the day unfold naturally, preserving the in-between moments that matter most. I’m drawn to experience-focused weddings — intimate gatherings, outdoor celebrations, and days that feel like a meaningful hang with your favorite people.

Hanna captured our elopement and to say she did a perfect job would be an understatement. She was so easy to communicate with and her presence is comfortable and peaceful. Her kindness and love for what she does is apparent as soon as you meet her. I could go on and on; we loved her!! She was the perfect pick for our day and the best decision we made for our elopement, aside from getting married! Her storytelling through our photos and video was spot on, allowing us to relive those emotions and moments, and giving our loved ones a chance to feel and live that day for their first time. It was obviously felt deeply by all. We seriously cannot thank her enough for everything!

I want to document the excitement of you getting ready with your best friends, the look on your mother's face when she sees you in your dress for the first time, and the tears your father cries during the father - daughter dance, and that "Oh my God, we are really married?!" look of joy on your faces as you walk down the aisle as a married couple for the first time. I will pose you and guide you when necessary, but I believe when you are focusing on each other and really soaking in those moments --- that's when the magic happens.

Hi! I'm Christin, a destination wedding photographer based in Chattanooga, TN. Specializing in timeless and artful imagery, my expertise goes beyond just taking photos; it's about crafting a visual story that reflects the joy, love, and unique spirit of your celebration.

Working with Christin at Christin Sofka Photography was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding journey.

She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her. Christin is not just a photographer—she’s a true artist, a cheerleader, and a calming, creative force you’ll be so lucky to have by your side. If you’re considering hiring her: do it. You’ll be singing her praises too.

My approach is calm, intentional, and deeply human, rooted in connection, trust, and quiet beauty. I create timeless, heartfelt images that honor who you are and the love you share, exactly as it is.

Julianne’s thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and amazing attitude blew us away on our wedding day. Leading up to our big day she sent us some unexpected gifts in the mail, which was a wonderful surprise. We can safely say that she was the best photographer for us on our big day. She was there for much more than photos. Whether it was helping us find things in the chaos of the bridal suite or coming up with a new game plan when we realize our sunset shoot couldn’t happen. Her and her assistant thought of everything to make us as comfortable as possible during our photos. We had a slight bug situation, but the bug spray they brought helped so much. Julianne has a way of making everyone feel comfortable when she’s capturing these special moments. She was even able to bring a smile to my camera shy husbands face consistently throughout the day. She was also able to hype up our wedding party when needed to get the perfect shot. Julianne stayed longer than planned to capture some special moments at our reception, which meant the world to us. She is such a kind and sweet person, who is literally willing to do whatever she needs to help the day run smoothly. One of the best decisions we made when planning was hiring her as our wedding photographer. If you get the opportunity to work with Julianne, trust me you will not regret it. She just might save the day!
