Local Photography in Cleveland, TN

The Slatons is Andrew Slaton and wife, Ellen, a traveling destination-style and adventurous wedding photography duo. The Slatons love capturing the story of your love! Andrew earned his bachelor’s degree in photojournalism from the University of Texas at Austin and has been a professional photographer for over two decades. In that time, he has traveled the world for a variety of clients, capturing the essence of glacial peaks, grizzly bears and the significant first look between husband and wife. His wide range of expertise and experience is the foundation of The Slatons that turns a fleeting moment into a treasured, lifelong work of art. In the last 6-7 years, he has also been producing video content for a variety of clients. He is an FAA commercially licensed drone pilot as well. Andrew is fun and easy to work with, as well as punctual and professional. He delivers quality, quickly. On your day, think of Ellen as your behind the scenes, go-to-girl. As the organizer of the Slaton team, Ellen keeps track of the Bride’s (and Mother’s, Aunt’s and bestie’s…) “must have shots” and helps ensure the day runs smoothly without stress. With an Art History degree from the University of Texas in Dallas, her passion for finding transcendent moments in the everyday keeps her committed to your unique story and searching for ways to express your memorable day by guiding with poses, capturing behind the scenes candids, & original camera angles. ***WHERE ARE WE LOCATED, you might ask? Funny story... 7 years ago we were traveling so much for shoots that we decided to sell our home and most of our stuff and buy a truck and travel trailer and hit the road! We follow the work and base ourselves in Jackson Hole, WY, Chattanooga, TN, and then Naples, FL. So we live where you live! Sorta :) So if you see our location changing, don’t worry, that’s just Andrew planning work along our route. Another great thing about this lifestyle is that travel is usually not an extra cost for you!

Photography is my passion. I strive to share the beauty of the world, and each individual’s diverse characteristics, with unique perspectives. I capture the essence of YOU.

I specialize in storytelling through clean, high quality photography. Whether you're planning a surprise proposal or celebrating your big day, I’ll work closely with you to create timeless images that reflect your vision without breaking the bank. Let’s make something unforgettable.
