Behind the Lens
Nashville Photographer JMF Photography Weddings and Events.
My Story

JMF Photography was born out of a deep-rooted passion for visual storytelling. My journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to capture the beauty and emotion of life’s fleeting moments in a way that transcends time. It all started with photographing my children’s sports events, where I discovered my love for the craft. Recognizing the potential to freeze not just a scene, but the essence of a memory, a feeling, or a story, I decided to go back to school to hone my skills. Now, I photograph something almost daily, continually refining my art.
What began as a small, personal project quickly evolved into something much bigger. Through sheer determination, endless hours of practice, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, JMF Photography grew from a dream into a thriving business. As my portfolio expanded, so did my reputation. Over the years, I’ve had the immense privilege of working with a diverse range of clients—from individuals seeking to preserve their personal milestones to families wanting to create memories that will last for generations. I’ve collaborated with small businesses looking to tell their brand story through imagery, as well as larger organizations seeking to capture their corporate events in a way that is both professional and artistic.

I provide exceptional photography services, and I am willing to travel to capture the perfect shot. Whether you need wedding photography, corporate headshots, or event photography, I am here to bring your vision to life.

1

Proud US Army Veteran: As a proud US Army Veteran, I have dedicated nearly 30 years to advocating for my fellow veterans. My passion for capturing military-related moments through photography reflects my deep love for our country and the brave individuals who serve it. Each photograph is a tribute to their sacrifice and my ongoing commitment to their cause.

Princeton Tiger: As a proud Princeton University graduate, I appreciate the prestige and rigor of the Ivy League. But let’s be honest, my true love affair is with my camera! While Princeton taught me to think critically, it’s photography that lets me capture life’s quirkiest and most beautiful moments. Whether it’s a wedding, a military event, or just a squirrel doing something hilarious, my passion for photography goes way beyond the Ivy League. It’s all about preserving memories and telling stories, one snapshot at a time.”

I have an addiction: My name is James, and I have a confession: I’m addicted to cameras and camera bags. With at least 4 cameras, over 30 lenses, and a whopping 50+ camera bags, I have a setup for every possible occasion. Whether it’s a wedding, a military parade, a family reunion, or even a pet photoshoot, I’ve got the perfect camera, lens, and bag combo ready to go. Some people collect stamps; I collect camera gear. It’s my kind of therapy, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
