Captured By Celeste 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Watauga, TN

Hey there! I'm your friendly neighborhood photographer, Celeste. As a Pisces, it feels like capturing love stories was written in the stars for me—romantic and creative by nature, I pour my heart and soul into every image I create. If you're into Enneagrams, I'm a 4, which means I embrace individuality and artistry in everything I do (though I'm still figuring out all the quirks of what that means!).

Awarded Best of Zola
Celeste is the absolute best at what she does. She is professional and detail oriented but also able to maintain a close relationship and have fun with her clients. I was a massive skeptic on professional photography- as me and my soon to be husband did not like being in-front of the camera. However, Celeste was so easy to open up with and not only was the experience to die for- she makes excellent company. My fiancé and I have grown close to Celeste and we look forward to our plans with her in the future. She is kind and open minded. She is punctual and flexible. She is witty and professional. Celeste has worked with my family and I to make sure that she makes it happen. My maternity photo location ended up being inaccessible the day of our session- and Celeste went above and BEYOND anything I could have asked if her. She set up a glamping tent on her OWN property and made magic with the circumstances we were given. She did my maternity photos in November of 2022, our first family photos in August of 2023, and will be not only photographing but a GUEST at our wedding in March of 2024. If you are new to professional pictures- or just looking for a breath of fresh air - I could not more passionately suggest anybody than Celeste.

Not only is Ashley kind, sweet, & patient, she is also very hard working & has a deep passion for what she does! My sweet dog was really old and she took the best pictures of him that I get to enjoy for life. Of course come my wedding day, instantly I knew I wanted her there! We got married at a park and then had our reception somewhere else. She was very willing to go on a short hike to get our mountain pictures, drove 30 minutes to our reception, and got every single detail!!!!! She was also very helpful during the wedding! 100% best Photographer hands down!

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.

Finding Scott as our photographer for our small intimate wedding ceremony was the cherry on top of a beautiful wedding weekend. Scott was super responsive and easy to work with. The photos speak volumes about his natural talent for capturing special moments, creative shot ideas, and beautiful editing techniques; he was also flexible, patient, and willing to work with us for fun spur-of-the-moment photoshoot ideas. I was blown by the entire experience and the final photos, and can’t recommend Scott Henry Photography enough!

Hey there, I'm Elena! I’m a wedding and engagement photographer based in Bristol, VA/TN serving clients across Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina. While my heart is in the Southeast, I'm always ready to pack my bags and capture your love story wherever it takes you across the country. My shooting style is relaxed, playful, and evocative. I value connection, authenticity, and true colors. I help couples who love candid shots and cherish raw emotions! Before becoming a wedding photographer, I spent a decade as a travel reporter. This shaped my photojournalistic and observant approach. I absolutely LOVE hunting for the ideal moment!

We had the best experience shooting our engagement session with Elena. She made sure that we were comfortable and gave us confidence through teaching us how to pose. Her photos from the session captured the best light and were beautiful. Elena was a joy to work with and was very communicative throughout the process from giving tips, to being receptive to our ideas, and going the extra mile to find the perfect location.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alissa Jean Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photographer. Her communication throughout the planning process was timely, responsive, and understanding - she helped guide me through decisions about shot lists and family photos in the lead-up to our big day. On the wedding day itself, Alissa was phenomenal at capturing all of the most important moments, big and small. She made sure to get shots of special details we hadn't even discussed beforehand. The quality of Alissa's work is outstanding, especially considering the value we got for our budget. I would wholeheartedly recommend her services to any couple looking to perfectly preserve the memories of their special day.

Beautiful Images by Toni

  • Serves Watauga, TN

I am a published photographer located in the beautiful state of Tennessee. I am a mama to two fascinating, wild little girls and I have a passion for running around, breathing in life. Photography has been a life long passion of mine; I can remember being a small child running around with disposable cameras trying to capture everything in site. Now, as an adult, photography is my way of making permanent what I, and others, hold close. I love tattoos, am romance book obsessed (honestly this career could not have been better picked) and hope to one day go sky diving! Now that you know a bit about me, I can't wait to learn about you!

From the moment we booked Beautiful Images by Toni, their communication was fast, helpful, and responsive. Toni's unique, creative, and fun style captured the excitement of our special day perfectly. She was there to help wherever she could, making everything feel seamless and just right. We are thrilled with the beautiful photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come. Toni and her team truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable.

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"!

As a venue owner, I meet and see the work of many photographers. One of my all time favorite wedding pictures was crafted by Envision. They respond quickly and efficiently. Always pleasant to work with.

Hi! I’m the “Eric” part of Eric Donahue Photography. I am a father to three amazing and talented young adults (you may see them on the website or on the walls of our studio). I have a beautiful wife that is my partner and second set of eyes when I need them. Finally, I’m remarkably lucky to make a living doing what I truly love. Photography is my passion. Photos and images last for a very long time, maybe forever. I strive to make sure the images you share with the world make you look your absolute BEST. Let’s get started. What in the world are you waiting for?

Eric is AMAZING at what he does. When we hired him we were at a loss on photographers for our big day because of COVID. Once we went through everything, he told me that we were doing a bridal shoot before the wedding and I was SO nervous. But once I stepped into the studio Eric made me feel like an absolute queen. He let me pick my favorite picture to have on a canvas displayed at my reception and his work is absolutely stunning. I’ve never felt more beautiful than I did on my big day and all of the incredible pictures he took bring me back to those moments every time. His talent is truly unmatched and he is the easiest and funniest person to work with. We would choose him time and time again!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Awarded Best of Zola
Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Love Knot Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Watauga, TN

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.
