Hey, i'm Raegen

portrait + Wedding Photographer

I moved from Northern Michigan to the Smoky Mountain/Knoxville area in July of 2025. I graduated from Michigan State University in 2023 with a BFA in Graphic Design and a minor in Art Photography.


The outdoors are my life and where I love to be. I love to fish, hike, hunt, create art, listen to country music, thrift and iced coffee. Below is what my life looks like without a camera in my hand.

My approach

 

True-toned yet warm, emotional, and connection-focused — I am more about capturing genuine moments and personality than overly posed or stiff images. My style leans toward natural light, authentic interaction, and storytelling, creating photos that feel timeless but still personal and intimate.

I want you to feel comfortable in front of the camera. I prompt you in front of the camera to achieve a romantic, candid, and experience-driven session rather than just capturing and delivering photos.

"Raegen absolutely captured our love perfectly. When we got our photo album; I instantly teared up. not only did she give us the best photos probably we’ve ever had taken, but she helped foster the most amazing memories, her encouragement, smiles, laughter, and joy created an environment where Michael and I felt ourselves. Where we weren’t afraid to display our love for each other and felt so comfortable— we felt like she was our family. No words can describe how grateful I am for this experience. It was scenic, romantic, fun and overall beautiful. She took her time. She gave us more photos than we expected. She listened, she kept professionalism while being so so loving. It was just the best time & these memories I will never ever forget. running through the fields in the smoky mountains —with Reagan by our side or trailing behind squeeling with excitement. You can just TELL she loves her job— she’s so genuine.. I cannot wait to take a family trip one day when we have a toddler by our side to have another session with Raegan or who knows maybe even a one year anniversary trip back. These photos were very affordable and completely captured what I wanted for honeymoon photos. I got my gallery back from Raegan long before I got my wedding gallery back. She got my photos to me so quick and the way she edited them is completely the vibe that I was going for. She reads cues and reads the vibe of her people so well. I am just in love with Raegan Eller photography— her work is almost too good to be true! TALK ABOUT PINTREST WORTHY!!

So if you’re ever in the Smokies or in Tennessee, and you want those beautiful mountain pictures or just pictures in general, you will not regret choosing Rae Rae! My husband absolutely loved taking pictures. She made it so memorable and fun as we all know not all husbands love taking pictures, but she made it feel so natural, candid and just captured us being us and that’s the most important part. Thank you, Raegan from the bottom of our hearts."

"I'm not sure where to start. It's all been said. Raegen is the absolute best. She's not only talented and produces amazing results, but she's kind, outgoing, and easy to work with during the process. She's incredibly patient as well. As someone who feels very uncomfortable in front of the camera, Raegen made the process painless. Thank you a million."
