A little about me. I love reggae music, family, Clemson & cooking! I've had a camera in my hand since the age of 5. I flipped through my grandparents photo albums over & over. I was always amazed to see how things looked "back then" along with seeing generations of family members I would never get to meet. Memories fade but portraits last forever. I started Hacker Medias in 2013 with a vision from God. Eleven years later, here we are still capturing YOUR families moments that will last forever! <3
My goal is to be your dream wedding, elopement, family & portrait photographer
I'm kristal, your chattanooga photographer
(I travel too!).
Zaria began her journey with Hacker Medias as a summer intern back in 2021, and now, three years later, she’s graduated high school and is ready to start her undergraduate studies! Though people often mistake us for a mother-daughter or sister-sister duo (haha!), we’re not by blood—but we’re as close as family.
Zaria is a fantastic addition to any photoshoot, whether you choose to include content creation as part of your package or just happen to have her assisting on your shoot day. She’s always bringing positive energy, creativity, and a bright spirit to the team! If you get the chance to work with her, don’t forget to share your appreciation and let her know just how amazing she is!
she's ready to lend you a helping hand & capture even more memories for you!
Meet Zaria!
From intern to key team member!
Jordyn is a naturally creative soul who has always found joy in expressing herself through various artistic outlets. From painting and drawing to crocheting, and now digital editing, her artistic journey has been diverse and continues to evolve. Over the years, Jordyn has watched and learned as I spent countless hours editing sessions, and in doing so, she developed her own unique style and keen eye for the craft.
Her long-time wish for an iPad to draw and edit alongside me has finally come true. What started as a fun activity has blossomed into a learning experience where Jordyn is not only refining her artistic abilities but also gaining valuable skills that will benefit her future endeavors.
Join us in cheering Jordyn on as she takes the initiative to develop and grow her God-given talents. Her creativity and drive promise an exciting future!
she has an eye for detail and doesn't take any mess lol!
