"Malin Photography offers top-notch service! Jess is professional, but VERY down to earth. We felt like “family” from the first time we met. Jess works hard to eliminate any jitters, awkwardness or anxiety one might have regarding when it comes to getting your photo taken. Jess loves what she does and it shows!"

 my 8 hour wedding collections include:

Yes! What a fun gift to give your future husband ;) Give him the surprise of  his life! This is typically done weeks before the wedding day to give enough time to create all the beautiful, fun, and sexy images. 

Do you offer bridal boudior?

If you don't have a place in mind, I have a list with several different places in Knoxville that are always classic locations.

WHERE SHOULD WE TAKE OUR ENGAGEMENT PICTURES?

Heck yea! I love the intimate feel of elopements. They are usually more relaxed ceremonies between a small group of very close friends and family.

do you photograph elopments?

After we virtually meet and you decide which collection best fits your needs you'll receive a contract and invoice with a required 25% retainer to hold your date!

HOW DO WE RESERVE OUR WEDDING DATE?

I like to keep my weddings no more than 12 months out from the booking date. Most brides book about 6-12 months from their wedding date. However, I have had brides book a month before their wedding date, which I am more than happy to do if your date happens to be available on my calendar. Reach out and let me know your wedding date, and I will check my calendar and get back to you with my availability!

How far in advance do you book?

I'm a hybrid shooter, that means I shoot both film and digital. I always carry my Canon 35mm film camera and my Canon R6, 50mm, 85mm, 35mm, and 135mm, and flashes for reception.
