It’s that time of year again where I’m sharing my 2019 favorite wedding images! There are a LOT on here, and this made me think I narrowed it down too small as I went throughout the year. I think I have a serious problem ha! In the past, I have thought through all of my […]

Ramble Creek Wedding Oh Ramble Creek…how you know all the things to do to make a photographer’s heart beat out of her chest. I just love this venue. When it first opened, it was all I ever saw come across my feed. Photographer after photographer doing styled shoot after styled shoot. I kept waiting patiently… […]

The Press Room Wedding This wedding at The Press Room had so many amazing details that I just LOVE. Instead of describing them all in paragraph form, I thought it would be easier for me to go through it with bullet points. The gifts that Katie and Ethan gave their bridesmaids and groomsmen were amazing. […]

Christmas Cookie Session The Whites welcomed me into their home last week for a bit of Christmas cookie decorating. We had absolutely so much fun rolling out the dough, having icing wars, and munching on some delicious cookies. These kiddos are the sweetest. Even though Jake doesn’t always just hang out in the kitchen watching […]

Castleton Farms Wedding Matthew and Meredith had their wedding at Castleton Farms, and they have one of the coolest stories related to picking their venue! After they got engaged, they picked a date about 6 months away. As many of you know, planning a wedding in 6 months is a lot. It can get a […]

The Press Room Wedding Caroline and I are a lot alike in our attention to detail, which is one of the reasons I think she chose me as their wedding photographer. Timelines detailed down to 5 minute increments, making sure the whole bridal party is standing at the same angle, and getting symmetrical family photos […]

RiverView Family Farm Wedding Here’s what I know about Chelsea and Daniel. They love the lake. They are so stinkin’ cool. They have a gorgeous daughter named Laiken. They thoroughly enjoy a good beer. They know how to have a great time. Even though I wasn’t physically there, I know they also throw a great […]

Arrington Vineyard Wedding I checked the radar the week leading up to Emily and Charlie’s Arrington Vineyard wedding. It was calling for clear skies with rain the day before and the day after, but clear skies on Sunday. Then, I realized it was still looking at Knoxville weather, but I shrugged it off because it […]

A cookout event for AMP couples only So, I did a thing this year. Instead of spending a crazy amount of money advertising with Wedding Wire, I invested back into my couples. Every single year, I really sit down to look at a budget for Amanda May Photos. I allot so much to advertising, so […]

Graystone Quarry Wedding Kaylin and Trey found me because Kaylin was a bridesmaid in a wedding I photographed two years ago. I didn’t know the impact I made on her when I photographed Leslie & Griffin’s wedding until she reached out to me to tell me she was now engaged, and she couldn’t imagine hiring […]

Pine Ridge Baptist Church Wedding Julia and Jacob got married on October 12th at Pine Ridge Baptist Church in Harriman, TN. I woke up that morning to get ready to go and decided to throw on a light cardigan. I was so hot from blow drying my hair and carrying all my heavy equipment around […]

Cades Cove Wedding and AMP Associate Photographer Ashley and Kyle eloped in Cades Cove on September 28th. I already had a wedding that day so my associate photographer, Brittany, photographed this one for me! This is something new I started offering this year, and I have to say I love it. Here’s the thing with […]

Hunter Valley Pavilion This past weekend I spent the day celebrating with Duncan and Sarah as they slid the prettiest rings on each other’s fingers and committed to forever. We were at the amazing Hunter Valley Pavilion, and I am stoked that this couple wanted a ton of beach pictures. Typically when I shoot at […]

Marblegate Farm Wedding As most of you know, this was my first wedding back from maternity leave just 7 short weeks after Hazel May was born. When I shoot weddings, Dustin watches the kids. This was the first day he was with a 7 week old and a 2.5 year old all day by himself. […]
