HI, I’M BILLIE-SHAYE, A KENTUCKY GIRL RAISED ON SWEET TEA & FRIED CHICKEN, LOVED BY JESUS CHRIST & SAVED BY HIS AMAZING GRACE. 

Exploring a mountain trail with my handsome husband, antiquing, a breathtaking sunrise or sunset, wildflowers, laughing until my sides hurt and well… couples madly in love are just a few things I’m obsessed with.

Serving the Greater Nashville areas to include all of Tennessee / Kentucky - BUT TOTALLY WILLING TO TRAVEL – with soulful Wedding Photography and memorable family portraits. I lean toward a more natural, in-the-moment photo with my focus being to create emotional memories that make time stand still while still capturing the feeling. Creating a bold, emotional, unbridled, one-of-a-kind experience. 

To me, photography is about witnessing the magic of love + life happen! I live to capture life’s most beautiful moments, and am most inspired by the uniqueness of people. I love using my God-given talent for capturing people’s essence in life’s real moments.

Hey, friends! I’m Meaghan (she/her), the person behind Rhode Tripper Photography – your wedding and elopement photographer and personal guide to crafting an intimate experience that is all about the two of you!

Your day demands to be captured in an authentic way that showcases the passion and uniqueness of you as a couple. That’s where I come in. I love to document both people and places, and believe that every moment and event that I have the pleasure of photographing is an adventure – regardless of whether it’s in your backyard or on a mountain top.

I don’t just like to show up, take photos, and leave. I become truly invested in your day and telling the story of you through my photographs. That’s why my process involves spending lots of time getting to know you through questionnaires, coffee dates, mood boards, timeline planning, and more. I have spent over 7 years of my life now in the wedding industry working as a bridal stylist, an event coordinator and now in photography so I have a wealth of industry knowledge and am just drawn to the magic of weddings and elopements. What does that mean for you? I know how to fluff your train and bustle your dress, have an eye for the little details, and also have an understanding of the importance of crafting a perfectly flexible timeline that allows for capturing beautiful lighting and organic moments. I always have an emergency bag with me full of the essentials – not just my loads of camera gear – so that you won’t have to worry about a thing!

A little more about me – I live in Rhode Island with my husband, Evan, and our rescue pup, Arya. I’m a movie buff, love to cook, and speak in frequent sarcasm. You can find me hitting up all the best foodie spots, barcades, and music venues around Providence when I’m not off on another road trip.

EPIC MEMORIES IN EPIC PLACES
Your wedding photos are so much more than just an epic mountain backdrop for the 'gram.
It's about the moments of make-your-stomach-hurt laughter with your person, intimate vows in a private place, your grandma tearing up during the ceremony, watching your first sunset together, the extra hug after the first kiss, and everything in-between.
As your elopement photographer, I’m focused not only on those landscapes that make you swoon but also those moments that make your heart swell.
Melt away the awkward, and embrace the memories head-on! Your photos will not only be beautiful, but so very meaningful.

Remember that old family photo box full of memorabilia, old 4x6 albums, polaroids and ALL the memories and wedding photos? My family box is one of my favorite things to pull out when I visit my parents! It’s so exciting to flip through a part of the past and relive the memories that you may or may not have even been around for!
Sadly, my parents only had a handful of photos from their wedding day. I so wish there were more to look back on. With this in mind, I believe it is not only important to have a photographer on your wedding day, but to have one that can offer you options and timeliness ways to display your photos from this special day, be that in wall art or albums, your memories should live on.

Oh hey, hi, hello, holaaaa! I'm so stoked that you're here!! Now that we have the formalities out of the way here’s the nitty gritty. So pull up a chair, sip some coffee or tea (or a mojito, whatever floats your boat) and read on!
Growing up between Alaska and South America (Colombia, ayyy!) gave me a sense of adventure and an eye for the beauty in this world. I also saw firsthand how love spans the globe and reaches across cultures and between people.  No matter our backgrounds, we all come together.
Is it any surprise I became a wedding photographer? ;)

I picked up my first camera at age 12 when my Dad bought his first digital camera. He might as well have kissed that camera goodbye, because it never left my hands. As an angsty teen moving so often, photography gave me a grounding. I was separated constantly from friends on both continents, but photos connected me to them despite the distance.
Honing my skills over the years on a series of point-and-shoot cameras, I grew into self-portraiture to experiment and then began photographing others. I was hooked. To this day, my favorite thing about being a photographer is watching my subject melt away the awkward and embrace who they are in front of my lens.
I married my high school sweetheart at 18, so I’m a romantic at heart. When I photographed my first wedding, I knew it was my calling and what I was meant to do. Capturing other couples in love and seeing them feel allllll the feels on their big day and being able to give them a photography experience that truly captures that is just incredible!

Alaska, Arizona + Beyond.

You can find me chasing wild spaces and legendary couples who want to elope with nature as their witness.

I believe in putting intention behind everything. There is nothing that brings a smile to my face quite like when a bride shows me a special note sewed into her shoe and a locket with grandmas photo hanging from her bouquet. Little things like these are the reasons I do what I do. I want to capture those special and meaningful moments so you can hold onto them forever.

When I'm not following you around like the paparazzi, you can find me hanging out with my 4 fuzzy pets, helping my husband find things in plain sight and binge watching crime documentaries, Ancient Aliens and any other unsolved mystery type show.

If I had to describe myself in one word it would be "Spunky".

Let's Adventure, I promise you won't regret it.

My love of photography started when I was a little girl and I remember always seeing my dad taking pictures with his film camera (which we still have today) and couldn't help but be intriged by it. A few years later I was gifted my own first camera for my 10th birthday and couldn't put it down. When I was fresh out of high school I ended up working at a photography studio for a while and I got so much joy from capturing some very sweet and lovely moments between couples, siblings, and newborns with their parents, then finally showing the families my work and them leaving with smiles. I decided it was finally time for me to start my own photography business & get back to creating and sharing precious memories with people. I love animals and kids and making people laugh (if I was brave enough I'd consider being a comedian, but for now I'll stick to the camera!). I love finding new places to take pictures, often using my boyfriend as a practice model. If you want to capture some lifelong memories then I'm your girl!
