When I first moved to the Knoxville area, I immediately started looking for the best places to take photos. My list has grown a lot since those early days, and I wanted to compile a list of some the amazing photography studios we have in Knoxville and the surrounding areas!

From historic homes and downtown lofts to modern creative spaces in South Knoxville and beyond, these studios offer a wide range of styles, amenities, and locations.
Below is a curated list of Knoxville photography studios and nearby studio spaces that are popular for portrait sessions, branding photography, content creation, workshops, and small events.
Knoxville Photography Studios
(Fountain City)
This one is new and I am OBSESSED with it from what I've seen online - Historic, natural light, and a large space. I really want to photograph a playful lifestyle family session here sometime soon!
(South Knox)
A clean, modern space ideal for portraits, lifestyle sessions, and creative photography projects. Lots of backdrops and a big window for natural light.
(South Knox)
This space seems like they have a lot of seasonal sets, and also a podcasting area which is cool!
A natural light studio in one of Knoxville’s charming historic neighborhoods. There is a kitchen that can be used, backdrops, beautiful large windows, and a stage. I wouldn't say that this feels the most natural for family photos, and certainly not newborn - But it is gorgeous for headshots, branding, or portraits.
This one is another I can't wait to check out in person. A downtown Knoxville studio filled with natural light, historic details, and a kitchen setup. Ideal for branding sessions, food photography, and creative shoots with a classic Knoxville feel.
This indoor/outdoor photography studio in Karns offers natural light, multiple shooting areas, a clothesline, and event space options. A great choice for families, lifestyle sessions, and seasonal shoots.
(Fountain City)
A simple, bright natural light studio that provides a clean backdrop for portraits, branding sessions, and minimalistic photography.
(Lenoir City)
This space is so pretty, I love the detail of the second room that adds texture and unique details and angles to use. The light in the main room in particular is gorgeous, and she has a number of beautiful props to round out the space.
