How to Choose Your 2026 Wedding Date
September 14, 2025The Honeysuckle Hills wedding venue in Pigeon Forge, TN, is a favorite for photographers because of its variety in scenic Appalachian beautiful all in one convenient place bordering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park itself. Honeysuckle Hills was founded by a photographer for photographers, so our horses, flower gardens, hardscapes, creek and mountain meadow view locations on our property are designed and maintained to provide endless opportunities for breathtaking images.
You are always welcome to use the photographer of your choice at our venue. If you wish to have photos with our horses running and approaching close enough to touch, your photographer is required to provide proof of insurance listing Honeysuckle Hills, LLC, as additionally insured. All the recommended photographers below have provided this insurance requirement.
We understand how challenging it can be to choose a wedding vendor when you’re traveling from out of state. All of our packages are priced either with or without a photographer. I hope you’ll find comfort in knowing that each of the photographers below know our venue inside and out and all but one can be included in our all-inclusive packages based on availability. Availability will vary, as most of them service other venues in the Smoky Mountains as well. Feel free to reach out to any of them personally with questions or to see more of their work.
Sierra K Photography
Specialty: Small Elopements and Micro-Weddings.
Style: Classic mixed with storytelling / true-to-color.
You’ve likely seen many of Sierra’s images on our website already since she’s my daughter-in-law and part of the Honeysuckle Hills family. If you crave to see even more of her work, look her up on Instagram @skbonnevillephotos.
Sierra is the mother of two of my sweet granddaughters, making her less available than some of the other photographers listed below, but if you’re one of the lucky ones, she’ll delight your heart with her mix of classic, free-flowing, true-to-color style. She uses a soft and gentle approach to posing with her sweet disposition. Natural light is her preference, but she uses off-camera lighting when the situation calls for it.
Don Fields Photography
Specialty: Weddings of all sizes.
Style: Classic mixed with storytelling / true-to-color.
Certified photographer with PPA.
A husband and wife team, Don and Melissa Fields have been photographers for well over 20 years. Learning from all the “old masters,” their lighting and posing are exquisite with a true-to-color, classic feel. Don is especially known for his use of foreground and layering for depth at our venue. I’ve seen them both work through challenging situations that would make other photographers sweat, but they carry on as if it’s second nature due to their decades of experience. Need video? They can add this service to your package as well!
Specialty: Elopements & Microweddings
Style: Light & Airy, primarily using natural light
Lauren Reeves is one of the most sought after elopement photographers in the Smoky Mountains, and for good reason. Her images pop off the page with love and joy, and she knows our area (and Honeysuckle Hills) like the back of her hand. She is an excellent choice for your elopement or small guest count micro-wedding. This woman is an absolute master of natural light and epitomizes the phrase “adventure photographer.”
Specialty: Larger Weddings with Receptions
Style: Light & Airy, primarily using natural light
Another husband wife team, Jessica and Garrett can be booked together or separately. Jessica is Don and Melissa Field’s daughter, continuing the legacy for excellence. Their style is light and airy, and they are especially known for keeping the wedding vibe joyful and upbeat. I call them the “Hallmark” photographers because of their cinematic style. Natural light is their primary choice, but they use off-camera lighting when the situation calls for it. They have a four hour minimum, so weddings with receptions are their specialty. Need video? They can add this service to your package as well!
Specialty: Weddings of all Sizes / Pricing varies, please book with them directly
Style: Moody & Creative
Angie Carriere is a high-end photographer in our area for weddings of all sizes. It should be noted that Team22 prefers to book with you individually, as their pricing varies by the type of wedding as well as the season.
Angie’s images have been published in Titanic Brochures and books, Country Music Highway, Cave Run Lake Area Guide, and others. Angie’s brand is easily spotted with her additions of clouds, sunsets and sunbursts to your images. Sometimes they’re captured organically, and other times they’re an artistic addition. As a luxury wedding photographer, she offers cinematic video as well.
Regina, the Original Honeysuckle Hills Photographer
Specialty: Couples only Elopements
Style: Classic Portraiture, True-to-Color
Hello from Regina! I’m also your wedding planner and day-of-wedding coordinator, so the only weddings I photograph are for couples with no more than six guests. If your wedding package is less than one hour, I primarily use natural light and only one camera in order to save time and provide a higher number of images. For packages with at least one hour I will use a variety of lenses and off-camera lighting techniques, using the skills I learned from all the “Old Masters” more than twenty years ago. The more time I have with you, the more magic we can create together!
