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 Jon were a DREAM! Savannah exceeded all of our expectations and created a wedding gallery that we will look back on for years to come. They captured all of the sweet and special moments along with our fun and goofy sides. Their attention to detail is evident in every single photo. Each emotion we felt on our wedding day was beautifully captured by this team!

When I was a kid all I wanted to be was a photographer (or a vet) and in 2019 o my husband gave me that opportunity. I left my corporate job to pursue my passion. I started a pet sitting business AND a photography business at the same time and I think it's safe to say that right now I am living the dream. I have three beautiful cats and a wonderful husband who supports me in whatever I do.

Aurora flew all the way from Nashville to Boston to photograph my wedding. She made sure to capture everything I asked for and paid attention to what I had wanted. The best part was receiving back the photos and gettin to relive the day all over again. Aurora really captured the emotion of the day and I am forever grateful to her.

Jaimee Raneigh Photography 

5.0

Nashville, TN
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,800

I’m Jaimee—a storyteller, world traveler, and lover of old stuff. With over 100 weddings photographed, I’ve learned that wedding days are about presence > perfection. My documentary-style photography is honest, fun, and rooted in telling your story exactly as it unfolds—raw, real, and beautifully yours. I’m passionate about capturing the moments that matter most: your partner’s look during the vows, friends dancing like no one’s watching, and those in-between moments you might miss but will cherish forever. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m immersed in nature, treasure hunting in antique shops, or planning my next adventure.

There are truly not enough words in the English language to describe how much I admire and recommend Jaimee for any and all of your photography needs. From the moment we met, we knew she was the perfect choice. As a fellow photographer, I met Jaimee over an online forum on facebook and we hit it off immediately. She was incredibly attentive, open to hearing what a valued for my day, and was all around a joy to work with. Jaimee is a wonderful planner and is ALWAYS prepared which perfectly soothed my anxieties leading up to our day of. Her documentary-style photography captured every raw, beautiful, and unscripted moment—moments we didn’t even realize were happening at the time. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the day all over again. The laughter, the quiet glances, the happy tears—every emotion is preserved in the most authentic and breathtaking way. Nothing felt staged or forced; instead, Jaimee blended into the day so seamlessly, allowing us to just be ourselves. She is quiet, fun, silly, calming presence that truly made my day so much easier. I truly and wholeheartedly believe I could not have done it without her. Not only is her talent unmatched, but she is also a joy to be around—calm, kind, and incredibly professional. Her team made us feel completely at ease, which truly shows in the photos. Jaimee goes above and beyond when selecting those she works with. This truly shone when minutes before walking down the aisle, her assistant,Shelby, re-curled my hair to ensure I looked my best after the rain had made it fall. Jaimee went above and beyond to make sure I felt prepared and confident the entire day. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who will tell your love story with honesty, artistry, and heart, look no further. Thank you sweet friend, for giving us the greatest gift—the ability to step back into these moments for years to come. We are forever grateful and cannot wait to book with you again in the future!

Nashville, TN
  • Photojournalistic style

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about so much more than just hiring a professional to take your photos - it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your special day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Awarded Best of Zola
Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

I’m thrilled to meet you and start creating a connection! I began photographing weddings four years ago and quickly realized the most meaningful moments are unscripted—raw, emotional, and unforgettable. Capturing these authentic experiences is my passion. With a background as an outdoor educator and a wilderness therapist, I bring a unique perspective and skill set to wedding photography. Whether guiding backpacking trips or earning a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, each chapter of my life has shaped my ability to support couples with humor, care, and creativity.

I have been both a fellow vendor (florist) and a guest at a wedding Haley has photographed.

Haley captures great moments and I cannot recommend more!

Belinda is incredible. We hired her back in September and are having a larger ceremony/reception in 2025. The first time we met her she drove almost three hours to us in November and the second time was for our fairly rushed legal ceremony two hours away from her. My grandparents are the reason we moved our wedding up. Not only did she allow us to substitute our engagement shoot for this ceremony, she of her own volition and the kindness of her heart included family portraits of my grandparents individually and together knowing that they were more my concern. She made them feel included, and was beyond accommodating of their needs and handicaps. Her kindness, grace, professionalism, and ability to work with people knows no bounds and I would recommend her to anyone. I tear up every time I think about how incredible she is and how blessed I am to have her as part of my special day. You cannot go wrong hiring her.

To me love is art, and art is love. My intent is to produce different, authentic, and cinematic imagery for you + your partner to cherish. I work in collaboration with couples to foster a place of intentionality allowing them to feel their most honest selves while engaged in and surrounded by beautiful scenery. I find I create the best art when I'm outside letting my clients exist together, no silly poses or staging, just the moment. Your wedding day is about the connection you two have and I want to produce imagery that honors your connection in an honest and intimate way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Nicole on our wedding day was absolutely incredible! She took our beautiful outdoor scenery and incorporated it perfectly with our photos. She was so sweet and so professional the whole time and was always taking into account what we wanted for our photos! We had a handful turned around the next day, and she sent more in Polaroid film in the mail while we are waiting for the rest of our photos. I wound up having poison all over on my wedding day which I addressed with her and she went above and beyond to help it not look so bad in photos! Would recommend her to anyone needing a wonderful photographer for their special day!

Hi there! I'm Sarah, a Nashville-based wedding photographer and I'm thrilled you're here! A bit about me: I'm originally from east Tennessee, and I currently call Nashville home. Though Nashville is home base, I will travel almost anywhere, I regularly offer my services in various regions, including east Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia. My journey with photography began at a young age, but it wasn't until college, during my first black and white film class, that I realized it was my true calling. Since then, my passion for photography has only deepened, and I've never looked back.

Within the first five minutes of ever speaking to Sarah, I knew that we were going to work well together. She is so positive, professional, confident, and considerate. She understands the importance of quality and effectiveness and knows how to stick to a schedule. She is so easy going, calm natured, and super reliable. I love working with Sarah. She is amazing.

We are a husband and wife team based out of Nashville, TN….and WE FREAKING LOVE OUR JOB! We get to work with the coolest, kindest, goofiest, and most creative people who inspire us everyday. Our clients let us capture THE MOST IMPORTANT MOMENTS of their lives. For that, we are very grateful.

Where to begin.... Kendall is absolutely fantastic. Photography was one of the most important vendors to me. I knew I wanted my day captured perfectly. After seeing Kendall's work and her ability to shoot ANYTHING so beautifully, I knew she would do a great job. What I didn't predict was how helpful it would be to have Kendall with me that day. Kendall was calm, funny, directive (in a productive way), and easy to be around. She and her husband Cody (the second shooter) wrangled 20 people in a bridal party like a pro and got everyone to participate in creating perfect photos. Throughout the entire process, Kendall was easy to work with (even being gracious to let me change my package on short notice). Above even her talent, Kendall is just a rockstar person, and you will be happy she is the one following you around on your wedding day. Book her book her book her!

Glenai Gilbert Photography 

5.0

Nashville, TN
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Creating intentional, long lasting memories is my passion. I want all the images I create to have a moment where my clients think, “I can’t wait to show this to my kids,” or help them relive the moment as if they could still taste the cake. My art is focused on individuals and the transitions of emotions they experience through their wedding days. It’s such a unique experience to be on the outskirts looking in on someone’s lives’; I get to meet their closest friends and family, see how they do under pressure, how they dance, hear words they speak to their loved ones, and see a day they created so detailed to celebrate something so special.

Glenai, Jonathan, and her whole team were absolutely perfect. Now her photos speak for themselves and we couldn't have asked for better footage but I also want to speak to Glenai as a person: she is the most calming, supportive, and creative presence...honestly, my husband and I just did whatever Glenai told us to do. We trusted her entirely and we are so so grateful for her. She's more than a photographer and an artist, she has this sixth sense for reading vibes and knowing exactly what you need without you saying anything. She is very, very organized and so thoughtful. My husband and I are not great at posing for photos and we were worried we would come off as awkward but that fear disappeared as soon as Glenai showed up. You cannot go wrong with Glenai & Jonathan and their team!!

Most people believe your wedding photographer is just there to snap some pictures and document your day. Your photographer helps to set the tone and put your mind at ease throughout the whole wedding. We show up as seasoned professionals who know how to take gorgeous, high-quality photos and videos you’ll love. We help with timeline planning, logistics, and day-of execution.

Working with John and his team was a seamless process! He ensured we had all we needed and the photos and video were gorgeous! If you’re a bride who loves detail photos like me, I would recommend mentioning that so that you have a photographer on the team who specializes in those types of shots. We didn’t have as many detail shots but the photos of our party and us were gorgeous.

Meghan Melia: Photographer

Nashville, TN
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

I find that most images I am inspired by are the frames after the fact or in between. The moments where you let your guard down, your breath exhale, and your shoulders return to their natural stance. The ones that wholly represent who you are and your connection to the people near you. The goal is for a person looking at one of my photographs to feel it in their guts. To preserve a moment in time so that even those who weren’t actually there can experience every detail, every emotion. I spend a lot of time acting as a witness to life’s very best memories. For that, I am incredibly grateful.

No other photographer can do what Meghan does- she has a talent that is unmatched. Meghan was the first vendor we booked when planning our wedding, and we’re so glad we did. Her work is incredible and she was the best person to have around on our wedding day. She blends well into the background during key moments but is someone who you can look to for reassurance and support if the day starts to feel a bit chaotic. She follows the lead of the couple and her documentary photo style encourages you to stay in the moment, rather than staging your day around pictures. We loved working with her so much, we almost forgot she would be sending us pictures after the fact. When the previews showed up in our inbox, they took our breath away.

I believe there is so much wonder to be experienced in this moment of your life: wonder that leads you to pause and delight in the world around you. I am passionate about creating images that capture this wonder and tell your story with depth, so that you’re pulled back into the moment each time you look at them. Our photographs carry our legacy. I have been photographing weddings & couples since 2014, and every wedding is unique. I would love to chat with you.

We hired Jamie for our wedding this past September and just received our photos. We could not be happier! During the wedding planning process Jamie was there for us every step of the way. She answered all of our questions and helped guide us. She was so kind and personable, by the end she was more like a friend than a vendor. On the day of the wedding she was efficient and organized. She made everything look so effortless. The photos are absolutely gorgeous. We knew she was great, but we were truly blown away when we saw our photos. She really captured every single detail, all of the love and the joy, and each and every guest. Looking through our gallery made us feel like we were right back there on our wedding day. We could not be more grateful to have our special day captured so wonderfully in such a timeless style. We seriously could not be more thankful for Jamie.
