I feel incredibly blessed to have had Courtney as my photographer for my destination wedding. Not only is she amazingly skilled, but she’s also an all-around fun and wonderful person to be around. She made both my husband and me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Even my husband, who generally doesn’t enjoy taking photos, said Courtney made him feel very bonita~ and was just as excited as I was to see the finished shots. You can truly tell that Courtney is passionate about her work and loves what she does. If you ask her about her career, she’ll gladly share her journey with enthusiasm. Although she has been a photographer for decades, the energy and excitement she brought made us feel like we were one of her first clients! Of course, her artistic talent in her photos showcases her years of experience. We’re absolutely blown away by her work and have so many favorite photos. From emotional candids to moving dance shots, and even editorial-style shots, she’s skilled at capturing all types of photos.

Courtney Davidson is absolutely amazing and our wedding day would not have been as magical as it was without her. From our first call together, you could tell how big of a heart Courtney has and how much she cares about the integrity of her work. She captured so many beautiful moments from our wedding, we have too many favorite photos to choose from! From portraits to genuine, candid moments each photo is better than the next. Your wedding day can be stressful, and Courtney has the incredible ability to stay calm, while keeping you calm - so you can be your most authentic self on the best day of your life. Courtney’s craftsmanship, professionalism and overflowing expertise is truly unparalleled.

We LOVE Courtney!! She was the first vendor we booked because we had to make absolutely certain that we got her locked in. She video called us so we could get to know each other a bit before we even talked about contracts. This was so important to us because the only person you spend more time with on your wedding day than your new spouse is your photographer! We clicked with her instantly. She is so warm and inviting. Courtney made us feel at ease in front of the camera during our engagement shoot, and then by the time the wedding rolled around, we were just so excited to see her again! She is a true artist and professional. The way she captures posed portraits and raw candid moments is truly incredible. She truly can do it all. One thing we were concerned about was getting photos done quickly with our large (and loud) family and bridal party. Courtney knows how to wrangle a crowd without being bossy! Our family and friends talked all night about how efficient and fun she was. Our time spent with her is reason enough to recommend her, but then getting our incredible images back simply blew us away. We had tears in our eyes looking through our photos because she has the ability to capture images that launch you back into the emotion of the moment. That is truly a special gift, and we are so lucky we got to have her capture our most wonderful day. If you want a wedding photographer who is fun, kind, talented, creative, professional, and a total hype-woman, HIRE COURTNEY!

We hosted a destination wedding in Nashville. It was important to me to have a photographer that I could communicate well with. And someone who my friends and family would enjoy so they would smile when they saw the camera. Courtney is the BEST. She is everything I wanted in a photographer and more. We all had a great time with her. My friends and family still talk about how fun she was. And the pictures I have shows all the emotion and good time we all had. When we look at our photos you see LOVE ❤️

Courtney combines skill, personality and professionalism to create the best experience a couple could ask for. She is calm and collected, no matter what is thrown at her. Beyond being an excellent photographer, she's also invested in making sure you have the best day of your life, and that comes through in her work. Plus, she's just all-around fun to hang out with. I would choose her all over again, with no hesitation.

Your wedding is going to be one of the most important days of your life. After all of the planning and stress, you want to remember every detail about that day. Courtney perfectly captured our wedding day exactly how we wanted. Not only did she make my husband and I feel so relaxed and comfortable, she made our wedding party and family enjoy taking pictures as well. She gives just the right amount of direction and does whatever it takes to get a beautiful photograph - she even laid down in the dirt to get that perfect shot of us at sunset. You can tell she doesn't just enjoy taking pictures, she wants them to be perfect. I was anxious about seeing our wedding photos because I wanted them to be as amazing as our wedding day. I was absolutely blown away when Courtney sent them to me. I loved every picture. It is hard to pick a favorite picture when Courtney is your photographer – which is a great problem to have.

Courtney is truly an AMAZING photographer. Our wedding pictures turned out better than I could have ever imagined. She made sure everything was captured perfectly the day of the wedding. She also works so well with everyone involved. We got married in July and even battling the heat she made everyone look flawless. She is very reasonable in prices and pays close attention to detail. I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone who is looking for an exceptional wedding photographer!!!

Courtney is amazing!! She is the hardest working photographer! I was in awe of her the whole day. She is so fun and easy to work with and has such a good eye for pictures. We absolutely love our engagement and wedding pictures. You absolutely cannot go wrong with her. We met with several other good photographers at the planning stages, but Courtney offered the best packages and is very knowledgeable about what she does. She is also great with working with large groups of people and organizing big family/wedding party pictures.You cannot go wrong with her!!

Hiring Courtney to be our wedding photographer was by far the best decision we made! She made having pictures taken easy and fun. She spent the time to make sure we felt comfortable throughout the entire process. I am so happy with how our photos turned out. She delivers a mix of beautiful, classic portraits and artistic shots that are like no other. She also pays attention to detail and gives you shots of every aspect of your wedding day. Her turn-around time on engagement photos and wedding photos is unbelievably quick and they are better than I could have ever imagined!

I can say without a doubt that booking Courtney Davidson to shoot our engagement and wedding photos was the best decision I made throughout the whole wedding planning process! I am thrilled with the way my photographs came out, and after several weeks of having them back, I still find myself wanting to flip through them every single day! Courtney was so easygoing and fun to work with. Her photos are classic and capture so much feeling and emotion between bride and groom. I loved how she was very straight forward and gave her opinion when asked, but she also made it her mission to capture every distinct photo that you wanted throughout the night. I was so impressed how she checked in with me throughout the night and took every single photo op that I asked for despite the large crowd of people and the speed at which the night moves! I have received so many compliments about how gorgeous my photos are from friends and family, and all I can say is how lucky I was to have such a talented photographer. Thank you Courtney!

I really wish I could give her a higher rating than 5 stars! She was absolutely amazing to work with and our pictures were beautiful. She did such a great job keeping the day fun and organized (even with me having large family wanting group pictures) while capturing all the moments I hoped for. Seriously, she's the best!

Courtney made the memories from our day absolute perfect!! She was easy to work with, professional, and a true gem in the photography industry!! We were beyond thrilled with our images and would have picked her again and again!!! If you are looking for someone great for you special day....look no further!!!!

There are not enough words to truly express how wonderful Courtney is! She shot our engagement and wedding photos, and they all came out beautifully! You can tell from her website that she takes truly gorgeous photos, but I didn't know ahead of time how wonderful she would be at capturing all the moments of our big day. She took wonderful photographs of the big moments (e.g., cake cutting), and she also took a ton of beautiful shots of the little moments (e.g., a glance between the two of us) and of our guests. Courtney does all of this while barely being noticeable during the ceremony and reception. I wasn't even aware that she was taking a lot of her beautiful photos. She is also just so fun to work with! My husband and I are horrible at having our pictures taken, and Courtney is the first person to actually get us to take good photos! She makes you feel so comfortable and will give you as much or as little direction as you want (we wanted a lot). Our families absolutely loved her too! My uncle who has some photography experience even sent her an email on his own just to say how impressed he was with her photos. On top of all of this, Courtney is very responsive, and her prices are really reasonable. I have nothing but glowing things to say about Courtney, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, responsive, professional, and very talented photographer!

Courtney is amazing!!! She is an expert and worth every penny. She has incredible attention to detail and has a talent for capturing both emotion and all the classic photos you want from your wedding day. Courtney is easy to work with, very personable, and great with managing the many situations that inevitably come up during a wedding and need to coral people for different shots. She is creative and a professional-- I highly recommend her!! My husband and I love the photos she took from our wedding!

Courtney did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day! She is incredibly sweet and relaxed, but so on point and gets everything done in a timely manner! She definitely made me feel at ease on my wedding day! I am confident in her vast experience, and knew she was thinking to photograph things I hadn't even though of yet! Our wedding venue wasn't necessarily super photogenic outside either, and Courtney managed to make it look spectacular! Looking back at the pictures, you wouldn't even know we were right in between two parking lots on a thin strip of grass! She took all the parts of our day, and made them shine! I highly recommend Courtney and couldn't have asked for a better person to put our day into pictures! Thank you Courtney!

This woman is in short amazing. I absolutely had the best photographer ever!! She worked so hard to make everything perfect! She did our engagement and wedding photography. I just happened to find her when I was searching for photographers in Nashville. She truly cares about you and wants to give you exactly what you want. She is straight forward (which is good in my opinion) and gives you quality pictures. I have zero complaints about Courtney and would recommend her to anyone!! She has a super busy schedule so be sure to book her soon!! Love her!!

I can't sing enough praise for Courtney Davidson! She is a professionally trained photographer & her photos are perfection! My parents said the bridal portraits we took 2 weeks before the wedding were the very best pictures they'd ever seen! On our wedding day, Courtney was calm and professional. She did a spectacular job of working with our many family members. She & her staff made sure to take all the special photos we had requested & they all just seemed to blend seamlessly into the event. She has kept us up to date on the status of our photos while she edits them & we can't wait to see our wedding photos this week!!!

Her work was absolutely wonderful, and my husband and I loved working with her! She was so much fun and so helpful to us!

Courtney Davidson and her assistant Ceasar did an amazing job documenting our wedding. Courtney's style, personality, and her attention to detail exceeded our (and our guests) expectations!
