Hey there, I'm

Alyssa Rachelle!

I’m Alyssa—a Chattanooga and Cleveland, TN, photographer capturing family chaos (the good kind) and meaningful moments with a light and airy touch. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m a boymom, Enneagram 1w2, and nature lover who’s recovering from perfectionism (mostly with chai lattes and deep breaths). Here, you’ll find my latest work, tips to simplify life, and probably a laugh or two. I’m so glad you’re here—grab a coffee and dive in!

I get asked A LOT what type of camera I recommend. Oh boy, that’s a loaded question! 🙂 One I’d love to cozy up at a coffee shop with you and go on about for hours and hours! But, I’m guessing you don’t have time for that, ha! So, I’ll try to put it in […]

What Camera I Recommend

It’s been nine years since these cuties have been together. Their story began in a high school Algebra 2 class. Julie was captivated by Austin’s big smile (and brains). Austin couldn’t help but be won over by Julie’s fun personality. The two have lived so much life together since then. I loved capturing their love […]

Collegedale Couple Session

We photographed the Jorgensen’s maternity photos in August of last year. Now, the Jorgensen’s are a family of three. It’s unreal that Jackson is eight months old! What?! It was so nice to catch up with them while photographing some updated family photos at Greenway Farms. Jessie and Johnny have made transitioning into parenting look […]

After lots of hard work, and being across the country from family, Karli’s graduating from Loma Linda University with a Master’s in Speech Language Pathology! Woohoo!! We celebrated her graduation with a session at the Collegedale Greenway! Karli has a special place in her heart for working with kids and has been in Chattanooga, Tennessee […]

Collegedale Greenway Session

Karli is finishing her Masters in Speech Language Pathology at Loma Linda University. Yahoo! She’s been doing her clinicals in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and staying with Katelyn. So, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to capture celebratory graduation photos for Karli (check out her blog post here) and family pictures, including debuts from Katelyn’s little girl, […]

Donut Photoshoot with Family

How many of us can say we first met the love of our life when they were kids? I’m guessing not many! But, that’s how Bethanie & Austin’s story got started! Austin’s dad pastored the church they both attended as kids. Fast forward through girls and boys having “cooties,” and we find the sweet couple […]

Sunset Rock Engagement Photos

Sweet Emma Faith was born with heart and neural tube defects that landed her an unanticipated 42-day Neonatal Intensive Care stay. Her mommy and daddy, Michelle and Randy, were her biggest cheerleaders while they balanced life inside and outside of the NICU with their soon-to-be two-year-old! Whew. Please tell me there’s an award for this! […]

NICU Graduation Photos

Sun? Warm air? Cool breeze? Yes, please!!! For weeks, it had been quite dreary and rainy, but the skies cleared on session day! Yay!! In fact, it almost felt like Spring 26 days early! It was gorgeous. Heritage Park was packed with families, cars, and dogs enjoying the day. I got very creative with how to […]

Heritage Park Family Photos

2017 was a year of firsts—like holy cow. We can’t begin to count how many! We started the year transitioning Alyssa to working the photography business full-time by the Summer. This was TERRIFYING, but God has affirmed us over and over through small and large blessings that it was the best decision we could’ve made for the […]

2017 Year in Review

The Rose family is such a special one to me & I was so thrilled they made it out for our Chattanooga Christmas Tree Farm limited edition sessions! I first met Bayley working in the NICU. Bayley was just a few weeks away from delivering Savannah, and was still hustling to take care of other […]

Chattanooga Christmas Tree Farm Photos

This Christmas session at Kittle Christmas Tree Farm had us feeling two things: baby fever and more baby fever. What could possibly bring more holiday cheer than a coo-ing and drooling two-month old!? For us, not much! The cheeks, the sweet smiles, the big belly, the Christmas décor—ugh we can’t even deal. So precious. Just […]
