Hi, I’m Jeff — a published and award-winning photographer based in Knoxville, Tennessee, specializing in wedding photography, engagement photography, family photography, portrait photography, and storytelling through images.

I believe photography is more than simply taking a picture. Photography is storytelling. Every wedding, family, couple, and individual has a unique story, and my goal is to capture the genuine moments that make yours special — the laughter, the happy tears, the excitement, the quiet moments, and all the little details you may not notice until you look back at your photographs years later.

As a Knoxville wedding photographer and East Tennessee photographer, I focus on creating photographs that feel authentic, emotional, and timeless. I also provide guidance with posing and natural interaction, helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera while capturing images that look and feel like you.

Whether you're planning a wedding in Knoxville, an engagement session in the Smoky Mountains, a family photo session in East Tennessee, or a portrait session, I’m here to help tell your story through beautiful, meaningful photography. My love of photography is closely connected to my love of exploring. I’m an avid coffee drinker, baseball enthusiast, nature lover, world traveler, and storyteller. Those interests continually inspire the way I see and photograph the world around me.

Based in Knoxville, TN, I photograph weddings, families, couples, and portraits throughout East Tennessee and the Southeast United States, including:

Tennessee • Kentucky • North Carolina • South Carolina • Georgia • Alabama • Mississippi • Florida • Louisiana • and beyond

I’m especially passionate about photographing throughout Knoxville, Maryville, Sevierville, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, the Great Smoky Mountains, and communities throughout East Tennessee. Your photographs become part of your family history. My job is to create images that allow you to relive the moments, emotions, people, and stories that matter most — again and again.

Congratulations — you’re engaged! Now that the hard part is over, it’s time to start enjoying the exciting part of planning your wedding.

Your wedding day is one of the most meaningful days of your life, and your photographs will be what allow you to relive those moments for years to come. From the excitement of getting ready to the first look, ceremony, family portraits, reception, and all of the candid moments in between, my job as your Knoxville wedding photographer is to capture the emotions, personalities, and memories that make your wedding uniquely yours.

I believe wedding photography should be about more than simply taking beautiful pictures. It should be about telling your story. I’ll help guide you through posing and portraits when needed while also looking for those genuine, unscripted moments — the laughter, happy tears, embraces, and little details that you may not even notice on your wedding day.

Whether you're planning a Knoxville wedding, an East Tennessee wedding, a Smoky Mountain wedding, or a destination wedding, I want you to enjoy your day and be present with the people you love. You don't need to worry about the photographs — that's my job.

Photography is about more than taking pictures. It’s about preserving memories, emotions, personalities, and moments that you may not fully appreciate until five, ten, or fifteen years from now. As a Knoxville, Tennessee portrait photographer, I want your portrait session to be more than simply standing in front of a camera and saying, “cheese.” I want us to create an experience.

Let's go on an adventure. We can explore beautiful locations around Knoxville and East Tennessee, laugh, move, talk, and have fun while I capture natural moments along the way. Whether we're photographing an individual, couple, family, senior, or another special milestone, my goal is to create portraits that feel authentic to you. Because here's the thing: it doesn't matter how beautiful your smile is if you're not genuinely happy. The best photographs happen when you're relaxed, comfortable, and having a great time.

My approach to portrait photography focuses on natural interaction, genuine emotion, and beautiful storytelling. I'll provide guidance when you need it, including posing and direction, but I'll also give you space to simply be yourselves. At the end of the day, you may not remember every moment you spent in front of the camera. But you'll have photographs that bring you right back to the adventure.

I offer portrait sessions for a variety of life stages and occasions, including:

Family photography • Couples photography • Senior portraits • Individual portraits • Lifestyle portraits • Engagement photography • Maternity photography  Milestone and special-occasion portraits • Outdoor portrait sessions • Modeling sessions • Prom sessions • Branding sessions • Headshots

All-Inclusive Portrait Sessions

I believe your photographs should be yours to enjoy and share. My portrait sessions are all-inclusive, with no hidden fees and no additional print charges. You receive your finished digital images with the freedom to share, download, print, and enjoy your photographs whenever, wherever, and in whatever quantity you choose. There are no surprises after your session — just photographs you'll be able to enjoy for years to come.

Every standard session is one hour and requires a 25% retainer at the time of booking to reserve your date and time. Looking for something a little different? Custom portrait sessions — both shorter and longer — are available upon request. If you have a specific vision, location, event, or adventure in mind, I'd love to create a session around it.
