Your Immersive Wedding Experience
Enjoy Your Wedding Day, Don't Work it
Planning your wedding takes months, but the actual day only last a few hours. Don't spend precious time watching the clock or worrying about what comes next. Instead, make meaningful memories and leave the logistics up to us. My team and I will seamlessly guide your entire day so that everything gets carefully documented while you stay fully present.
Hi, I'm LaVonda!
Voted Best Photographer in Murfreesboro
I knew I wanted to become a photographer when I learned firsthand the impact of a photograph. At the age of 16, my Grandpa died suddenly and I was beside myself with grief. Looking at printed photographs of him pulled me out of depression. Today, I hold them in my hand and still hear his laughter roaring in my ear. Instead of being a memory that has faded away, these photographs are physical memories I get to share with my daughter and introduce her to her great grandfather.
I know first hand how impactful photography is. That's why I do more than just take pretty pictures; I protect the peace of your celebration so your event is one you'll never forget.
"Not only did LaVonda take amazing pictures, she helped create a timeline to make our big day run seamlessly, was so kind, and had great ideas for picture locations and poses."

The Journey Before, During, & After Your Wedding
Intentional Planning for a Stress-Free Day
We begin months before you say "I do." I work alongside you and your wedding planner to fine-tune the flow of the day. I'll curate a thoughtful timeline that not only ensures every important detail is documented with precision but also allows for breathing room. Intentionally designing space for the unexpected, so we are always prepared no matter what your wedding day holds.
Expertly Navigating Your Nashville Wedding
On the wedding day, my team and I provide more than just coverage; we provide a calm, professional presence. With two photographers at every celebration, nothing gets missed. While one captures the grand, iconic moments, the other documents the quiet, intimate reactions of the people you love most. Whether navigating a venue evacuation or a sudden Tennessee rainstorm, we lead with peace so you can stay fully present.
Physical Heirlooms for Future Generations
Your precious memories deserve more than to live on a hard drive and be lost in today's digital age. We provide a full-service experience, ensuring you can hold your memories in your hands, not just in your mind. Your wedding album will be professionally designed for you and will retell the story of your day. These high-end heirlooms will be passed down for generations and preserve the start of your family legacy.
Nothing Gets Missed
With Our Two Photographer Standard
One perspective is rarely enough to capture the full depth of your story. That’s why every experience includes two lead photographers. While I am focused on the grand, iconic moments—the walk down the aisle, the first kiss, the epic portraits—my second photographer is documenting the quiet, unfiltered character of the day. They are there to capture your groom’s deep breath before he sees you, your mother’s tear during the vows, and the laughter of your guests during cocktail hour. We work in tandem to ensure that every angle of your Nashville wedding is expertly preserved, giving you complete Peace of Mind to stay fully present.
Wedding Photography Investment
Choosing your wedding photographer is one of the most significant decisions you will make for your celebration. You aren't just hiring someone to document a day; you are commissioning an artist to protect your peace and preserve your beginning. Each of coverage collections are thoughtfully designed to preserve your peace and your legacy, regardless of the size of your event. All coverage collections provide you with a timeline to keep your day on track, a digital gallery to share images with your loved ones, an archival USB to serve as a backup, two photographers so nothing gets missed, and a professionally designed wedding album. Average investment is $6,500, but collections start at $4700.
FAQs
What if it rains on my wedding day?
No big deal! We will still capture amazing photos that you will love and will remind you of the emotion and experience you had on that day. My team and I will work out all the logistics of how and where to make that happen while you simply enjoy your wedding day.
How do I know that all the photos I want will be captured?
One of the first things we do together, way before your wedding even gets here is build a timeline that ensures there is enough time for all the moments you care about. We build the timeline around your photography, not fit the photography into the timeline.
We don't know how to pose, so how do we not look awkward in front of the camera?
All of my couples ask me this question. With my guided experience you don't have to pose for the camera at all. Instead, I will provide you with prompts that will allow you will move around and interact with each other. So, you never have to feel awkward or wonder what to do with your hands. It will feel more like hanging out with your loved ones and making memories versus stiffly posing for a camera.
What if my fiancé does not like to take photos?
This is very common and I absolutely understand why. The last thing you want on your wedding day is to feel like you are stuck in one big photoshoot. That is why more than half the day, we capture candid, documentary style portraits that simply capture you enjoying your wedding day naturally, unprompted. When it's time for formal portraits, we prioritize fun so it's not a complete drag, and we capture them quickly, so you're able to get back to partying faster.
How long does it take to get our photos back?
Contracts start that online access to your full wedding gallery will be ready within 4 - 8 weeks from your wedding day. High resolution files will be released after your album design session.
Do you also offer videography?
I will be your lead photographer, capturing photography only; however, for my couples that are interested in videography as well, I will connect you with my partner for further discussion.
