Kevin helped me plan a proposal at Rock City. It turned out great! Kevin had some good suggestions for spots and how to approach it. He was very easy to communicate with. On the proposal day, he did an excellent job staying incognito. My fiance had no clue he was there. He was able to get in position exactly when and where he needed to for the shot.
The moment itself was captured beautifully. I have no regrets booking Kevin. He has the attitude and energy I was looking for. He's very positive and you can tell he cares deeply about getting the job done well. I am happy that we'll be able to look back on this moment.

Well, I wanted everything to be p-e-r-f-e-c-t for you two and it really turned out that way. I'm thrilled that you chose me to be a part of it. Keep close to each other and enjoy your big, bright future together, Alex!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Choosing Kevin as our engagement photographer was one of the best decisions we made during this whole process. From the very first interaction, he was professional, easygoing, and genuinely invested in capturing us—not just taking pictures.
During the shoot, Kevin made everything feel natural and fun. Neither of us are models, but he gave clear direction without making it feel stiff or awkward. He knew exactly how to use lighting, scenery, and timing to create photos that feel authentic, emotional, and honestly stunning.
The final images completely exceeded our expectations. Every photo tells a story—full of warmth, joy, and real connection. Friends and family haven’t stopped commenting on how incredible they are.
If you want a photographer who is talented, reliable, creative, and truly cares about delivering unforgettable memories, Kevin is the one. We couldn’t recommend him more highly and will absolutely be using him again in the future.

I keep a lot of your portraits from this adventure close at hand for inspiration, Noah. It all turned out so beautifully, Noah. Thank-you for giving us the privilege to be a part of your big day at Rock City.

My family and I had the pleasure of working with Kevin for my son’s graduation photo shoot. Kevin was absolutely amazing!! He was professional, helpful, attentive and thoughtful about the perfect scenery for this occasion. Weather was a concern but Kevin was flexible and reassured us regardless of the weather we get some amazing shots and we did!!!
Thank you again!

Kevin did a great job capturing the essence of our home for sale. Not only is he professional in his work, but he is also pesonal. We enjoyed his time spent with us and the outcome of his labor! I highly recommend Kevin!

When I walked into your beautiful home and saw how expertly everything was staged, I couldn't help but rise to the occasion. You did such a wonderful job of preparing each space. I'm sorry that you are leaving the Scenic City, but I'm confident that blessings await you in Ohio.

Well you did the "heavy lifting" of creating such a beautiful space. There were so many features that you generated that gave wings to my images. I hope all of my property clients craft their homes the way that you did~amazing work, Kat!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I’m not interested in becoming rich. I am first and foremost an artist. I simply make sure that my expenses are covered and that I’m able to pay all of my Thumbtack fees, government taxes, insurance and equipment updates. I do provide discounts for military veterans and family referrals from previous clients. I do add a destination fee of $15 when traveling to your location if it is over 55 miles from Ooltewah, TN and $25 if your location takes me over 85 miles. It is important to invest in a quality experience. As effective as the app on a smartphone can be, enduring memories are best with the skills of a professional.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Everything worth doing well begins with a good conversation. Our introduction opens the dialogue which quickly reveals more than time or location. It also unveils a story and theme. Further exploration and discovery soon follow. I so enjoy the creative endeavor with willing and enthusiastic participants. I’m pleased to say that many of my first time clients often become friends.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Neal Stevens opened my very first class in Photography during my first year of college. That was more than a little while ago. Film has yielded the platform to the digital pixel. I have absorbed everything that I can from a host of classes, seminars, publications plus practice, practice, practice!
