About Kandi
Hi, I’m Kandi Leigh, and I am a sucker for beautiful sunsets and a good love story.
I am blessed to live in one of the most beautiful areas in the U.S., and I love taking pictures of couples and families in the Great Smoky Mountains including Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Maryville, Townsend, Sevierville and Knoxville, Tennessee. The Great Smoky Mountains are one of the most sought after elopement and small wedding destinations in the U.S., and I feel blessed to be ale to capture these special moments in our beautiful mountains.
But, I also love to travel and feel extra blessed to help people create moments, memories and beautiful photos all over the U.S. and beyond.
I have been shooting wedding, corporate and brand photography for more than 10 years. My style is to keep couples interacting naturally to capture authentic moments and make your images look as true to life as possible. I love to focus on the light, which happens to be my life motto.
More than a photographer, I am also a relationship coach and Reiki master teacher. I am passionate about helping couples and families feel good and have more fun together. This is the energy I bring to your session and your photos.

And just because I love connecting with people on the different things that make us who we are, here’s some random facts about me:
- I LOVE Birthdays!
- I grew up clogging all over the U.S. (My family were the original cloggers on Hee Haw.)
- I laugh ALL the time.
- Salt baths are one of my favorite ways to relax.
- Hiking, snowboarding, water skiing and riding roller coasters make may heart happy.
- I see the numbers 47 everywhere.
- I am a Sagittarius sun, moon, rising and Mercury (with lots of Virgo in my chart.) I call myself an old soul with a playful inner child.
- And, as a writer, I love finding words that mean exactly what I want to say.
