Your wedding day is more than a timeline. It's the people you chose, the energy in the room, the quiet moments that happen between the big ones.
I work with couples who care about how their day feels, not just how the photos look. If you want to be fully present instead of worried about whether everything's being photographed, if you want the experience to be enjoyable rather than stressful - that's what I'm here for.
My approach is documentary-style with an eye for light, composition, and the in-between moments. I photograph weddings of all sizes throughout Tennessee and beyond. Whether you're having an intimate celebration or a full weekend event, the goal is the same: you get to live your day while I make sure nothing slips by.
DESTINATION & TENNESSEE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGES
Wedding photography coverage is shaped with intention and flexibility, allowing each day to unfold naturally. Whether your celebration takes place in Tennessee or at a destination that holds personal meaning, coverage is designed to support the full experience, honoring both the moments you plan for and the ones that happen in between.
The sections below outline coverage options, process, and planning considerations.
Wedding Photography for meaningful, layered days
Wedding Photography for meaningful, layered days
When you hire me, you're not just getting someone to take photos. You're getting someone who helps you plan a timeline that actually makes sense, who scouts locations if you're not sure where to go, who keeps an eye on lighting and logistics so you don't have to think about it.
I've worked throughout Tennessee - Nashville, the Smoky Mountains, Chattanooga, everywhere in between. I know the venues, the seasons, the best times for light. That local knowledge helps your day run smoother and your photos turn out better.
On your wedding day, I'm there as both your photographer and your advocate. If the timeline's running behind, I'll help adjust. If you're feeling awkward during portraits, I'll guide you through it. If something's not working, I'll figure it out. You get to relax and be present while I handle the rest.
Based in Tennessee and available for destination weddings worldwide.

"She captured us so naturally & candidly."
Kind words
Wow. I can't recommend Cayla enough. I hate getting my photo taken but my husband LOVES photos so for his birthday I agreed to do a couples session with Cayla. She was INCREDIBLE. She made us both feel so comfortable and at ease. She had us laughing and she captured us so naturally and candidly. The locations she chose were stunning. We love our pictures so much and it was such a fun memory.

"She was absolutely phenomenal."
Kind words
My husband and I had our elopement done by Cayla and she was absolutely phenomenal. Her communication was prompt and she was extremely easy going. She went out of her way to meet me at the site a week prior to look around the location for good photo spots. The day of the event, she made us both feel relaxed and comfortable resulting in amazing photos that really captured who we are. Highly recommend.

"She will always be our first choice."
Kind words
My husband and I have done numerous photoshoots and Cayla's were hands down our favorites. It is hard to find a photographer who makes you feel so comfortable to be 100% you during pictures and she did such an incredible job! She is beyond talented and she has photographed so many of our life moments- including her flying to VA just to shoot our gender reveal and a daddy&me session. She will always be our first choice!
Your wedding experience should feel effortless from the moment you reach out. This guide walks you through exactly what working together looks like, from the first email to the final gallery.
What to Expect
01 Send an Inquiry
Once you reach out, I’ll learn about your date, vision, and priorities. This gives me a clear understanding of what matters most so I can recommend coverage that fits your day seamlessly.
If we’re a great fit, I’ll send a simple proposal with your contract and invoice. Once both are completed, your date is officially saved and the planning can begin.
You’ll receive questionnaires and helpful guidance that shape your timeline, family lists, and overall flow. This prep ensures your photography reflects what you value, not just what “should” be photographed.
If your package includes it, we’ll choose a location, plan outfits, and create a session that feels like you. It’s the perfect way to get comfortable and to build trust before the wedding day arrives.
The day unfolds, and I’m there to document it with intention. The big emotions, the quiet in-betweens, the people you love most. I’ll guide when needed and blend in when the moment requires space.
Within a few weeks, you’ll receive a curated online gallery with downloadable images, printing rights, and heirloom options. Your wedding story, preserved beautifully and ready to relive.
Definitely. You’ll get timeline guidance, location ideas, tips for the best lighting, and personalized recommendations. All based on what matters most to you.
Do you help with planning?
A mix of documentary and gentle direction. I step in when you need me and fall back when you don't. The goal is for you to feel fully present while I quietly catch everything happening around you.
What’s your approach on the wedding day?
Usually we roll with it. And sometimes it turns out even better. Moody clouds, soft rain, dramatic skies… I can work with all of it. And if we need a plan B, we'll make sure that's lined up beforehand.
What if the weather is bad?
Every wedding is different, so yes. We can tailor coverage, add-ons, and details to fit your day and your priorities.
What if I want to customize my package?
Honest, natural, and story-driven. I guide gently when needed, especially during portraits, but the most meaningful moments tend to happen when you’re fully present and not thinking about the camera.
What’s your shooting style?
Weddings typically receive between 500–1200+ images, depending on the length and flow of the day. Rather than setting a hard number, I focus on delivering a complete, meaningful story. If a moment matters, it’s included.
How many photos will we receive?
Yes! Whether it’s across Tennessee or across the country, I’m in. My destination packages have the cost of travel already built in, so there are no surprises.
Do you travel for weddings or sessions?
You’ll receive a preview gallery within 72 hours, followed by your full gallery within 4–6 weeks. I prioritize a thoughtful, consistent editing process so your images feel cohesive and true to the day.
What's your turnaround time?
We’ll figure it out together. Once I learn your vision, timeline, and priorities, I’ll recommend coverage that fits your day (not the other way around.)
How do we know how many hours of coverage we need?
FAQ
As a destination and Tennessee wedding photographer, I take on a limited number of weddings each year so every couple gets the attention and care they deserve.
If you want a wedding day that feels calm, present, and fully lived, and photos that reflect that feeling, I’d love to hear your story.
