Chattanooga Wedding Photographer for the Weird and Wonderful

Hi, I'm Rachel! I'm a documentary-style wedding photographer based in Chattanooga, and I'm here for the couples who want their wedding photos to actually feel like them. The happy tears, the dance floor chaos, your grandma sneaking a second slice of cake. All of it.

Real Moments, Not a Photoshoot

Most of your day, I'm a quiet witness. I watch, wait, and capture what happens as it happens, completely unposed. When it's time for family formals and wedding party photos, I step in, get everyone set quickly, then fade right back into the background. You get the real moments and the classic portraits your family will want framed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should we book?
For weddings, I recommend 6 to 12 months out, especially for popular fall and spring dates.

How do we save our date?
A signed contract and a 25% retainer lock in your date. Your balance is due one month before the wedding.

Will we get posed photos too?
Absolutely! I make sure you get the family formals and classic portraits, then let the rest of the day unfold naturally.
