Kens Cotton Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Athens, TN

Since 2022, I’ve been telling love stories with an editorial eye and a documentarian’s heart. My work lives in that space where timeless elegance meets honest emotion—where the unposed and the beautifully composed exist side by side. Whether it’s an intimate elopement in a quiet corner of the world or a grand celebration surrounded by hundreds, my approach is grounded in trust, subtlety, and intention. I believe in honoring every story, every culture, every kind of connection, with care and with artistry.This isn’t just about beautiful photos. It’s about capturing what’s real and making it unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kens was an exceptional choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, her communication style was attentive, thoughtful, and dedicated. She went above and beyond to ensure our special day was captured beautifully. Kens not only took stunning, high-quality photos, but she also helped with things that were not even part of her duties, like helping with decor, keeping everything on schedule since we didn’t have the Day of coordinator and helped with our dog that wouldn’t let us take any pictures without him lol. She was such a joy, all our guests loved her, she would try everything to get the best shots and angles, ensuring we have memories to cherish forever. The value she provided was truly exceptional, and we are so grateful for her caring, professional service.

Lili B’s Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

Hey there, I'm Lili. I have been capturing love stories for the past 8 years. I started out taking friend's and family's senior and family pictures, and eventually that love for photographing turned into documenting wedding days. I'm all about you being yourself and capturing what makes you, you. The quirky, fun, teasing, and weird love that you have. I will be your professional hype woman, third-wheel, dress buttoner, pocket square folder, tear wiper, and everything in between.

Lili is an amazing choice for a wedding photographer of anything else! She will soon be doing our wedding, but I have to rave after she did our engagement photos. She added us last minute and was incredibly responsive, professional, knew how to capture the look I wanted, was easy to work with, and made us look great! Highly highly recommend!

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

I honestly thought wedding photos would just be nice pictures, but these are so much more. They look like a dream come to life, but still feel real. The colors are so bright and warm. I loved how they even captured my shoes, my grandma’s smile, and my husband’s goofy dance moves. The video makes me cry every single time I watch it. We couldn’t have asked for more, really.

Love Knot Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Athens, TN

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Joe and Ashley! From start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with. Their warmth and friendliness instantly put us at ease, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. The calls before the wedding to go over details were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly on the big day. One thing that meant a lot to me was getting specific photos with certain family members and bridal party groups, and Joe and Ashley made that happen seamlessly. Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime! And if you’re on the fence about video—DO IT. Having a beautifully edited video with sound clips woven in so perfectly brought our wedding day back to life in a way that photos alone just can’t. The way they captured every little moment, every emotion—it’s truly priceless. Joe and Ashley are not just incredibly talented at what they do, but they also make the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who genuinely care, are highly organized, and will capture your wedding day in the most perfect way possible, look no further.
