He was so patient with our puppy and making sure he was looking at the camera. Nathan was super easy to talk to, plan with, and very responsive to messages and questions.

We are recommending Nathan to our friends and will definitely use him again. Thank you Nathan!

Hiring Stephanie as my photographer was one of the best things I did for my wedding. Not only are…read moreher photos incredible, she's an amazing person. You spend a lot of time with your wedding photographer, and it makes the experience 100 times better if you enjoy hanging out with them as much as we did with Stephanie. When I was looking around at photographers, I noticed many have their specialities. Some are good at taking stunning artistic shots. Some are more journalistic, and others are great at the detail shots. When you hire Stephanie, you don't have to choose. She captured gorgeous artistic black and white shots as well as the most tender moment during our first dance. Also, her rates were incredibly reasonable. Seriously, email her and find out. If you don't think you can afford wedding photography, you might be able to after all if you hire Stephanie. She is a genuinely kind person who loves what she does. Working with her was a real pleasure, and I now consider her a friend.

WE LOVE STEPHANIE!!…read more My husband and I were in search of a wedding photographer that had a unique, off-beat vibe just like we do. We wanted photos that were us as we are, not us over-Photoshopped or awkwardly posed. Through a couple of lucky coincidences we found Stephanie shortly after she moved here and we are SO glad we did. She captured each moment of our wedding so beautifully and honestly. She never pushed us into poses or gave us orders, she just let the moments unfold and was there to capture every gorgeous one. Not only are her photos beautiful, but she is so laid back and easy to get along with. We felt totally comfortable with Stephanie from the moment we met her. Plus she was cool as a cucumber at the wedding - which helped us relax a little too. Her easy going attitude kept us calm amidst all the craziness! She sent us the link to our photos the day after we returned from our honeymoon (so quick!) and we were blown away by how wonderful they are! We've received so many compliments about how unique and beautiful our wedding photos are and we couldn't agree more. Stephanie did an amazing job, is a genuinely fantastic and talented person and we would recommend her to anyone!!

As a couple from New Jersey getting married in Tennessee I had no clue where to even start with the…read moresearch for a photographer to document the biggest day of our lives. Luckily the wedding venue manager had a list of vendors and Rich Smith Photography was one of them. I reached out and instantly hit it off with Rich. He thoroughly explained the process, was very attentive to detail, responded quickly to all my emails, and just made me super comfortable that he would be perfect for the job. I went on his website to learn more and see samples of his work and was thoroughly impressed with not only how he captured beautiful naturally occurring moments in his photography but also how open he was about his background and his family which made me realize he was a good person. We took a trip to Tennessee to view the wedding venue and meet all the vendors and as part of the photography package, Rich offered us an engagement photo session for free. He was accommodating to work that in to the short time we were visiting. This was really helpful in getting to understand his style, and for just learning in general how to have pictures taken of us (which in my opinion is the hardest part). We got more comfortable as time went on and Rich made suggestions and creatively interpreted our ideas. If we were uncomfortable trying something, he didn't push us at all. It had to be tough for him because I hate having photos taken of me but he was so patient. The value you get for your money is just incredible. We added on a photo booth package that will allow our guests to take fun and goofy pictures at the wedding that they get to download after the event. It's not your typical photo booth, it will be an actual photographer that can help give direction in lieu of a machine you work yourself. From the samples Rich sent, guests love participating and look like they have a blast doing so! So far, the pictures from our engagement photo shoot were awesome. He had our photos ready right on time as he promised. Communication was great too: he put our photos online right away and explained the process for downloading them for print and to use for our save the dates. We're so happy with how they turned out. We cannot wait for our wedding day to work with Rich again. I highly recommend having Rich document your special occasions. You will not be disappointed!

My husband and I are both a bit awkward in front of a camera, and I often am not crazy about how I look in photos, but Leah did an incredible job making us feel at ease, capturing beautiful memories and really documenting the joy of the day. She also recommended several other vendors and we hired many of them-- they were all great! Really our only complaint is that we've got so many great photos that narrowing down which to frame and put in a wedding album is a challenge! 100% would recommend Leah to other couples getting married in the Smokies or Knoxville area!

She's one of the few photographers licensed to work there so that was extra helpful! Our session was just a few hours long and she was very flexible about timing and our needs. We skyped out all the details beforehand and that was a relief. I'm not particularly comfortable being photographed but she made it feel more natural than I was expecting. Our photos are beautiful. We are very pleased.
