Twin Arches- Defying Magnificence

Featured / Mary Davis Photography / Leave a comment

The beauty of life and exploring is that sometimes you can’t digitally capture what the eye sees. There are so many magnificent things to see in real life that just can’t be recreated. It’s easier to carry my camera in hand on hikes because I never know what will catch my eye, but there are times where I just don’t even attempt the photo for this reason. Twin Arches offered many of these opportunities to just enjoy what nature had to offer. This hike is located in Big South Fork and is part of the National Park service. Encompassing over 125, 000 acres in Tennessee and Kentucky, this area offers every type of recreation for those adventure seekers.

The Sparkle of Downtown Knoxville

Featured / Mary Davis Photography / 1 Comment


This photo of Downtown Knoxville, Tennessee had been an image of mine for almost a year. Every time I drove by it, all I could imagine were these starbursts from the Gay Street Bridge and the highlighting of the Knox County Courthouse. My image finally came to life and I could not have been any more pleased with the turnout. I have this printed on metallic paper and the finish makes it shine!

This image is for sale. If you are interested, please contact me, as I would love to give this piece a beautiful place to display.

I have a specific Instagram for all of my photos taken around Knoxville at Night. Fittingly titled knoxatnight.



Surprise Proposal in Downtown Knoxville!

Cory and Peyton’s mom contacted me to photograph when Cory proposed to Peyton. His main objective was to get the Tennessee Theater sign on S Gay St. in Downtown Knoxville in the background. We planned the entire thing without her knowledge. A few days prior, I went Downtown to scope the perfect spot out and Cory pulled off the proposal seamlessly!
Peyton was beyond ecstatic

Flowers of the Rain

I’ve always been amazed by nature, especially on rainy and cloudy days. The raindrops on flower petals look beautiful, reflecting the soft light from the cloudy sky. It’s like nature is showing off its ability to amaze and inspire those who take the time to notice. Also, the changing light and shadows from the clouds make everything look dramatic. It’s like nature is putting on a show for anyone who stops to admire its wonders.

Taylor & Christian’s Big Announcement

As a photographer, there’s something truly special about having repeat clients. It’s not just about capturing moments; it’s about building relationships and becoming part of someone’s story. Having loyal clientele means more than just another photoshoot. It means celebrating milestones, witnessing growth, and being there for the moments that matter most.

I photographed Taylor and Christian shortly after they had moved to Tennessee about a year and a half ago. I was honored when they contacted me with the news of their pregnancy and wanting announcement photos. Being able to document the evolution of their journey from settling into a new place to expecting a new member in their family has been an incredibly rewarding experience.

Those apple pies at the Fall Apple Festival were worth standing in line for!! This annual festival is hosted by the Washington Presbyterian Church in Corryton, Tennessee and all proceeds are given to a mission chosen by the Church Session. Baked goods, apple cider, cornmeal ground on-site, and of course the famous fried apple pies make this festival a Fall favorite!

Autumn Morning Hike

/ Mary Davis Photography / Leave a comment

Early morning, when the leaves are beginning to change and there is a cool breeze and an overcast sky, make the ideal conditions for my favorite time to hike. When I saw these Junipers, I knew that these photos would be my favorite. Hall Bend Loop is a 5-mile trek located near TVA’s Tellico Dam that meanders along the lake for a good portion. At some points along the trail, the buzzing sound of traffic fades and you feel as f you are miles deep in the woods.
