Chattanooga, Tennessee’s Top NINE Engagement and Elopement Photo Locations || Chattanooga Wedding Photographer

You want stunning engagement and elopement photos in Chattanooga with the perfect location!? Look no further!

Here are the Top Nine greatest places in Chattanooga for your fun photography session that my couples love the most:

1. Sunset Rock - This spot offers views of a different side of Chattanooga. It is the side that the sun sets on (hence the name Sunset Rock). It is a short walk down to the rock from the parking lot. Sunset Rock is a great spot for a weekday photo session because there are approximately 8 spots in the parking lot…it can be tough and nearly impossible to get a parking spot on the weekends.

2. Snoopers Rock - Another gorgeous location for vast mountain and river views! It’s a great space for you and your fiance to get cozy and take it all in! We will need a permit for this one but it’s worth it!

3. Walnut Street Bridge – If you want an iconic spot in Chattanooga, this is it! Maybe you’ve walked across the bridge many times or you love the blue color of it. The blue color really pops in the photos making it a great backdrop for your engagement photos!

4. Under the Bridges – This location includes a wide expansive view of the river. The sun sets behind both bridges giving a gorgeous glow as it begins to hit the water. White walls, greenery, the Walnut Street Bridge, and the Tennessee River are also here as background options.

5. West Village (Westin area) - This spot has become one of my favorites. It offers a city vibe and numerous photo options. Umbrella alley, white walls, rooftops, and cityscapes have everything you need for an urban photoshoot that shows off downtown Chattanooga. Engaged couples love this area as much as I do.

6. Point Park - This Lookout Mountain location offers one of the best views of Chattanooga. Here, we get dramatic images with boulders, mountains, the Tennessee River, and the downtown area.

7. Greenway Farms - A classic Chattanooga location for engagement photos. It offers many different backdrops such as rolling hills, beautiful pathways, an old cabin, and even a water feature.

8. Moccasin Bend Area - We have to hit this spot at the right time of year for the tall grass, but when we do, it’s magical! It’s magical the other times of the year as well. Lookout Mountain is in the background and the wide-open field is gorgeous!

9. Renaissance Park - We can shoot here any time of year because of how the light comes through this area. The light shining through in the evening is especially stunning. It offers a soft glow, and when the trees are green, it’s really special. There are many options for backdrops like bridges, stairs, walking paths, and greenery. The Tennessee River and the Walnut Street Bridge are close, too.
