Trying to convince the husband I need a venue by turning our house into one for the day. But there is something special about gathering in a home though.. good food, sweet details and lots of laughter.

We loved on Angela and Nathan today with a shower with family and close friends before they say I do next weekend.

The trailer was a super cute backdrop but there’s a whole vision in this girl’s head for it.. wait just a little bit longer…

Summer months are apparently for love and weddings… my old school pencil and paper planner is telling quite the story.

As I added a new bride to my calendar this morning I realized July 2027 is filling up fast and a lot of my summer weekends are already spoken for.

If you're planning a 2027 wedding and are thinking about coordinating, decorating, or both, let's chat soon

Excited for all the love stories still to be written 🖤

It was such an honor to set up for a 90th birthday celebration for a gentleman who exemplifies everything that truly matters most… faith, family, community, hard work and Tennessee football.

One of my favorite touches was adding his favorite snacks to the tables… just little details that tell someone's story.

It was a privilege to play a small part in celebrating a life so well lived 🧡

Party planning during my oil change to keep me from walking the lot because the smell of a new car is my love language… or y’all need to book with me and help me get my horse trailer ready and then we can justify the need for bigger 🖤

••I just had an October wedding reschedule.. get it while it’s available.

Dream big. Take the chance. Fill out the application. Send the email. You never know where it might lead 🖤

••Being a part of one of five teams chosen to decorate Governor Bill Lee and First Lady Maria Lee’s “Tender Tennessee Christmas” Tour in 2024 has been a decorating career high for me. I’m so thankful for that opportunity that was shared with me. The White House has been on my dream list since.

Here's to hoping this little dream gets one step closer to becoming a reality 🎄🇺🇸

An extremely talented local photographer who is currently booking engagements, weddings and special events.

📸 We’ve had a lot of new people join the page recently, so I figured it was the perfect time to introduce myself!

Hi, I’m Josh, the photographer behind Josh Graham Photography. I am based in East Tennessee. Thank you so much for following along—it truly means a lot.

Photography started as a hobby with cars, but over time I discovered how much I enjoy capturing the beauty in people. Now I focus on weddings, engagements, couples, families, seniors, and portraits.

My goal is to create a fun, relaxed experience where you can be yourself. Some of the best photos come from real laughs, real emotions, and simply enjoying the moment together.

When I’m not behind the camera, I work as a pipefitter, so photography is something I pour my heart into outside of my regular job. Every session is an opportunity for me to create memories, meet awesome people. Create photos they love and admire for years to come!
