About

Hi! I'm Kara Joy a Fine Art Wedding Photographer. I spend most of my time traveling between Memphis, TN & Stowe, VT where I have the pleasure of photographing the most amazing couple who believe in Celebrating the Beauty of Marriage. My goal as wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience. When my couples feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, that results in genuine, joyful images! Your wedding day is an experience from beginning to end and your photography is a huge part of that experience..... shouldn’t it be fun? and enjoyable? and natural? I think so! My goal is to not only capture memories for my clients, it’s to create an experience that they will never forget.

Beautiful, timeless photographs!!

Kara understood exactly what I had in mind for my engagement and wedding day photos. She worked so hard with us to make sure we had the exact vision we've always dreamed of for our photos. She does a fantastic job of capturing special moments that you will want to hold on to forever! Highly, highly recommend!!

MVP of the wedding!

Hiring Kara was the best wedding decision we made! From the moment we met her for our engagement shoot we knew it was a perfect fit. We traveled from out of town for the photos and Kara was so flexible when our original day was rained out. We had such a great time working with her we couldn’t wait for our wedding day! My husband has a large family and Kara was awesome about getting all the family photos they wanted in addition to wedding party and just my husband and I. I wasn’t feeling great on our wedding day and Kara went above and beyond in making sure I had water and crackers and could take breaks between photos while working with our planner to ensure we were staying on schedule. Our photos are more incredible than we ever could have dreamed of and we can’t imagine our wedding day without Kara and her team there. Brides, do yourself a favor and hire Thankfully Taken!

Kara is seriously the sweetest person you will ever meet! Her work is amazing and she goes over the top for her brides. She is such a fun, loving, Godly person! She shot my wedding this past weekend and i can't rave enough about her. Highly recommend her! Very professional and one of the best around! If you want someone to take good care of you on your wedding day, Kara is the choice! I have received so many compliments from the photos she has shot! She's amazing!
