I couldn't imagine having anyone else photograph our special day. Emily made my husband and I feel comfortable right from the very first phone call, all the way leading up to our w...
edding day. She does INCREDIBLE work, just look at her photos for yourself. Weddings can be stressful, especially if the timeline isn't going to plan but she did everything in her power to make sure we were still running on time for photos, even if we had to pivot and change up our game plan. The 2nd photographer she brought with her was already incredible. Our entire wedding party and guests kept commenting how much fun but professional our photography crew were (and appreciated how much they hyped us up during photos!!!). We're so glad we went with Emily Lester Photography and we highly recommend you do as well :)
Emily did our daughter's senior pictures and they turned out awesome!!! She is very easy going and great to work with. Had lots of good suggestions and used some of ours as well. C...
ouldn't have asked for a better time
Emily is seriously the best!!! If you are looking for someone who will hear you out on your ideas, but who also brings super creative ones to the table herself, she is your girl!!!...
She took our wedding photos, and I couldn’t be happier with the pictures she captured on our special day! She had them all back to us edited within a week after the wedding. If you like the style of her pictures, then I promise she is worth every dime!! She is Super easy to work with, always makes sure you are comfortable, and just overall a fantastic person!! I can’t imagine anyone else taking our photos that both me and my husband will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you again Emily for all the great pictures! Y’all hit her up for any of your photo needs! You won’t be disappointed!! 10/10 would recommend no questions asked.
I felt so comfortable with Emily from the first time we met, and her work is beautiful. I was a COVID bride – and Emily was supportive and collaborative every step of the way (date...
changes, location changes, people changes). Emily made sure to capture all aspects, and paid special attention to understand what was important to me and my groom. When I set out to pick my vendors originally, a photographer wasn’t on the top of my list. Looking back, I would suggest to any bride that the photographs are one of the most important items to consider (they’re what stay with you afterward)!! I am grateful that I was introduced to Emily, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!
Emily is a talented photographer - her work with lighting is amazing, and she captures the emotions of her subjects beautifully. We will forever appreciate the way she was able to ...
document our engagement and wedding day! Emily is so easy to work with - she brings ideas to the table and is open to yours as well. She is calm, kind, and relaxed but professional and reliable as well. When our wedding didn't go quite as planned (thanks, COVID!), Emily went above and beyond - she stepped into the role of dress buttoner and boutonnière master for the day and helped make our day wonderful. If I could give Emily 6 stars, I would! I highly recommend her as a photographer and look forward to having her help us document our lives in the future.
Emily is a delight to work with. She kept us all laughing, and kept me cool and collected on my wedding day. She is very chill, but was able to take care of business, wrangling peo...
ple and finding shot locales on a tight schedule. Besides that, her photos speak for themselves--elegant, natural, and so spirited and fun. Her prices are a steal, especially in the Nashville market. Book her now!

pecial moments starting at our church rehearsal and through the entire next day for our wedding ceremony and reception. Our guests loved her and felt completely comfortable asking for family shots or group shots that they wanted to get too.

shy of PERFECTION. (I am SUPER picky & didn't want to feel self-conscious looking back at pictures of myself from such a special day.) No worries there. She was so accommodating, friendly, and personable. Emily is a blast to work with. She nailed every single shot I dreamed up, and then some! We have so many breathtaking photos to choose from. She really went above and beyond to work with us. We cannot wait for her to shoot our wedding (at the beach) next Nov!! We were blown away by this entire experience. Look no further. You have found your photographer.
Emily, everyone who interacted with you at the wedding had a million compliments about how nice and easy going you are and when they saw your photos they were in awe of the quality...
and creativity of your work. You are a fantastic wedding photographer and we couldn’t have found a better fit for us on our big day. Thank you for paying attention to the details, taking time for precious family photos, and reminding us to have fun all day. I hope that you’re around to capture big moments in our lives for years to come!

where. She listened to all of our ideas, was easy going while providing direction, doesn't have strict rules about number of outfits, etc. She made us feel at ease and was able to capture some amazing shots in some of our favorite places around the city! Her photography is very crisp and clear while being soft, one of the reasons we were drawn to her style before meeting her.
Emily is incredible! She was our wedding photographer, did our engagement session and my bridal portrait. She is creative, down to earth, and so much fun! I highly recommend her an...

our personalities through photographs. Her rates are competitive and you will NOT be disappointed if you hire her!
Emily made our day absolutely perfect - her pics are gorgeous and she had some back to us within 24 hours. Cannot express how happy I am with her and how highly I'd recommend.
Emily was the photographer for our wedding, reception, and our engagement photos. She is the sweetest and is so laid-back. Friends and family just raved over our engagement photos....
They turned out so wonderful. She stayed the entire wedding and reception and got so many great pictures. She is very reasonably priced and so personable. I am so beyond impressed with Emily Lester and her photography. I will recommend her to anyone and everyone that needs a photographer for absolutely anything. She also does photography for children, families, pets, senior portraits, etc.
