Meet the Artist
I’m a Nashville-based wedding photographer who brings direction and energy to a wedding day — knowing when to step in and guide, and when to let real moments unfold. After more than 300 weddings over the past 14 years, I’ve learned how to help couples feel confident, relaxed, and fully themselves in front of the camera. I’m married to my beautiful wife, Anna, and we’re raising our two wonderful kids, Walker and Aleena, alongside our emotionally needy bernedoodle, Falkor.
With an MDiv and years of chaplaincy experience, I’m trained to read a room, care for people well, and stay grounded in emotional moments. My goal is to create an experience that feels personal, fun, and seamless — so you can stay present and trust your story is being captured with intention and heart.
Hi, I’m the photographer behind Chris W Jones Photography
My path to photography wasn’t a straight line. After earning a degree in art history — and hesitating to fully pursue the arts — I became a master electrician. That season built confidence, discipline, and pride in doing meaningful work.
In my mid-twenties, I was mentored by my good friend and world ranking wedding photographer, Adonye Jaja. I became deeply invested in learning the craft. Having stood beside close friends as a groomsman nearly twenty times — including ten as best man — I learned the rhythm and emotion of a wedding day firsthand, making photography feel natural.
Along the way, I discovered this work is about more than images. It’s about honoring people and preserving moments that pass too quickly — giving couples something real to return to for years to come.
My Journey to Photography
Wedding collections begin at $3,400. For a detailed overview of offerings and options, I invite you to inquire and I’ll gladly share my full investment guide.
I’d love the opportunity to connect over Zoom or FaceTime to hear your story, learn about your vision, and understand what matters most to you. From there, I’ll walk you through my approach and how we can thoughtfully create space for beautiful, honest moments throughout your day.
