Couples sessions are about real moments. It feels like a laid-back date night—grabbing a drink, walking around your favorite spots, or hanging out somewhere that feels comfortable for you.

Kylene & Caleb’s session took place on the coast of Oahu, Hawaii. They wanted the evening to feel like them—barefoot, unhurried, and grounded in the simple things they love. They shared their favorite beer, surfed, swam, and watched the sun go down. Just a regular evening in their book, made memorable because they slowed down for it.

Gabby & Coleman’s session started in the Georgetown neighborhood of Nashville—quiet streets, charming front steps, and no real agenda other than to catch up and enjoy the afternoon. They wandered, talked about their St. Patrick’s Day weekend plans, and ended the evening at a local bar. Hot dogs, cold beer, a few rounds of pool, and dancing like they owned the place (because, for a little while, they did).

Kat & Zach’s session took place on a mountaintop in Breckenridge, Colorado—just before a storm rolled in. It was their first time back in Colorado since college, and being the only ones up there made it feel even more special. We danced around, laughed, and I gave them space to just take it all in.

Your session should feel effortless and true to who you are. I focus on creating a relaxed atmosphere where you can be yourselves, letting the moments of connection unfold naturally—without pressure or expectation.
I don’t just show up to take photos—I’m here to understand what your relationship really looks and feels like. Every choice I make is with care, aiming to reflect the genuine connections and emotions that matter most to you. This means less staging, more meaning.
I watch for the subtle moments—the quiet glances, the spontaneous laughter, the small details that are easy to miss. By staying present and out of the way, I’m able to capture you just as you are, letting the experience unfold naturally.
INQUIRE WITH ME
Simple, easy, and low-pressure. We’ll spend about an hour together capturing real moments—think of it like a laid-back date with some photos along the way. Best for one location, and great if you’re looking for something relaxed and straightforward.
This one’s more personal. It’s about documenting you two doing something you love—whether that’s cooking dinner together, hanging at your favorite dive bar, or anything in between. It usually involves multiple locations and takes a little more planning, but the result is something that feels truly yours.
I cannot recommend Jaimee enough!! She did a couples shoot with my boyfriend and me back in February, and the photos are hands-down the best pictures we’ve ever had together. We shot in the streets of Nashville and then at a bar, and both locations felt straight out of my Pinterest board… in fact, Jaimee brought my exact inspo board to life perfectly. Every detail, every vibe I envisioned… she nailed it.
Beyond being insanely talented, Jaimee is also one of the kindest, most down to earth people you’ll meet. She made us feel so comfortable the entire time, and her energy made the shoot so fun. She truly sees photography as art, and it shows in every single image. Jaimee is professional, creative, and just so easy to work with. I’m SO happy she’s doing this full-time because the world deserves more of her work. If you’re thinking about booking her… DO IT. You will be obsessed with your photos forever.

I truly cannot say enough great things about Jaimee! She did our engagement photos at Urban Cowboy in Nashville, and I am absolutely blown away by how amazing they turned out. Jaimee has this incredible ability to make you feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the whole session (which is hard for stiff people like myself LOL). She captures the most beautiful, intimate moments without you even realizing it’s happening. Her work is always top-notch, and you can truly see the passion and dedication she puts into every shot. We couldn't be happier with the photos — they’re beyond stunning! If you’re looking for someone who not only produces incredible work but also creates an unforgettable experience, Jaimee is THE one. I couldn't recommend her enough!

Jaimee has a remarkable gift for capturing moments that truly matter—moments that reveal who you are and showcase creative, unforgettable imagery. She arrived early, adapted seamlessly, and handled every challenge with grace, showing genuine care for our wedding day. It was such a joy not only to have her document our ceremony but also to spend time hiking with her afterward, where the toughest climbs turned into laughter and quiet moments at the summit became more than just breathtaking photos—they became magical memories brought to life. Throughout, Jaimee’s thoughtful reminders of her gratitude made us feel truly valued. We are deeply grateful to her for capturing our most cherished day. Thank you, Jaimee, from the bottom of our hearts.

We can’t recommend Jaimee enough! From the very start, she made everything easy and helped us find the perfect micro-wedding spot in a new state. She has an incredible eye for capturing those quiet, real moments—every laugh, tear, and meaningful glance—without ever being intrusive. The photos perfectly reflect the beauty of Colorado and the emotions of our day. Her attention to detail was impressive, and the final gallery absolutely blew us away with its natural, flawless editing. We also added Super 8 film, which was such a unique and special way to remember the day. If you want a photographer who’s talented, warm, and truly cares about your story, Jaimee Raleigh Photography is the one. We’re so grateful for the memories she helped us create!

Where do I begin?! Boy, am I so glad I can across Jaimee's page on Instagram. She was the BEST decision I made throughout the entire wedding planning process. THE TALENT--WOW!! THE AUTHENTICITY--JUST WOW! I feel like every photo I have either belongs in a magazine or needs to be printed out and framed in my home. Not only is she incredibly talented, but her heart and passion for what she does really stood out to me. She has such a love for people and capturing raw moments. She genuinely cares about what mattered to us as a couple. During our meetings leading up to the wedding she wanted to learn about our story and who we are as individuals. Her presence is so calming and her documentarian style shooting really allowed us all to be fully present on one of the most important days of our lives. I felt like I had a lifelong friend alongside me during our entire day--and that was my first time meeting her in person! That alone speaks volumes. I will forever cherish our incredible photos captured by her and her friendship. Can't recommend her enough<3

There are truly not enough words in the English language to describe how much I admire and recommend Jaimee for any and all of your photography needs. From the moment we met, we knew she was the perfect choice—attentive, calming, and a joy to work with. As a fellow photographer, I connected with Jaimee through an online forum and instantly knew she was someone special. Her documentary-style approach captured every raw, beautiful, and unscripted moment of our day in the most authentic way. Nothing felt staged; instead, Jaimee seamlessly blended into our celebration, allowing us to fully be ourselves. Her preparation, professionalism, and kind spirit soothed every pre-wedding anxiety, and her incredible team went above and beyond—even re-curling my hair minutes before I walked down the aisle. Looking through our photos is like reliving the day, full of laughter, quiet glances, and happy tears. Jaimee is not just a talented artist, but also a calming, joyful presence, and we are forever grateful to have had her by our side.

Jaimee is by far the best photographer I have ever had the pleasure of having photograph my engagement and my wedding. Throughout the entire process she is very communicative and timely when it comes to sending photos back to you. Speaking of, I don’t think I could have ever imagined receiving photos that beautiful in my life. She truly exceeds all expectations and is so good and making your vision come to life. While an inspiration board of photographs is always helpful, I can safely encourage everyone that it truly is not needed when Jaimee just knows how to take such a damn good photo! One of the things I knew I wanted to do was invest in great photos that that we can look back on for years to come, and Jaimee is hands-down a perfect choice. Zero complaints. 100/10 would recommend. No notes. Jaimee, you are the best and thank you so much for everything you have done.

Even before I was engaged, I knew Jaimee had to be our photographer—I’ve admired her stunning work on Instagram for years. When it was time for our engagement photos, I booked her without hesitation, and the results exceeded all expectations. Jaimee made the whole experience comfortable and fun, effortlessly blending subtle guidance with space for us to just be ourselves. My fiancé, who usually isn’t a fan of photos, actually enjoyed the shoot, which says a lot about how relaxed and natural it felt. She was wonderfully accommodating when we asked to include our dogs, making the session even more special. The photos blew me away—everyone who’s seen them is speechless at how perfectly she captured us. I’m beyond excited that Jaimee will be photographing our wedding in June and can’t wait to work with her again. If you want a photographer who brings out the best in you and captures moments beautifully, Jaimee is absolutely the one.

Jaimee is such an amazing photographer and lovely human being! From the initial meeting to the day of the wedding Jaimee helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera and took the time to understand the vision that we were looking for in our wedding photos. And even in the engagement session, Jaimee took the time to hang out with us and get to know us in addition to just taking photos. As a result we received an incredible engagement and wedding album that really captured that timeless and dreamy look that I’ve always loved. Highly highly recommend!!

Based in Nashville, Tennessee, I’m a couples photographer who leans into what’s real. It’s relaxed and never about performing. I won’t ask you to do anything that doesn’t feel like you. I give light direction when it’s helpful, but mostly I’m observing, letting moments unfold the way they would if I weren’t there. My goal is to help you feel like yourselves.
Tennessee weather can be unpredictable. I’ll keep an eye on the forecast and check in the day before. If the weather looks bad, I am happy to discuss a reschedule, or pivot to an indoor location.
Not in the slightest. I specialize in relaxed, documentary-style photography. Whether we’re in the heart of Nashville or on a mountaintop in East Tennessee. I don’t need you to be “on” or do anything performative. I’ll meet you where you are, help you feel grounded, and gently guide when needed. You don’t have to worry about how you look—I’m focused on how it feels.
Absolutely. I'm a Nashville-based couples photographer, but I regularly travel for destination sessions across the U.S. and beyond.
Honestly, whatever feels like you. Wear something comfy, something you feel confident in, and lean toward neutrals or soft colors so the focus stays on the two of you. Bring as many changes as you want, or keep it simple.
