About

I’m Nolan Keesee, a professional sports photographer based in East Tennessee. With almost a decade of experience, I specialize in capturing the intensity, emotion, and excitement of sports through my lens.

My passion for photography began in high school, and I have been honing my skills ever since. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most talented photographers in the industry, including several legends from Sports Illustrated. I have also had the privilege of working with athletic brands at the JUCO, NCAA DI & DII, Minor League, and World Championship levels.

My Favorite Events and Projects to date:

  • Tennessee Football vs Alabama (2022)

  • The Players Era Tournament in Las Vegas, Nevada (2025)

  • USA Gymnastics Women’s World Championship Team Selection Event (2025)

  • SEC Swimming and Diving Championships for the SEC (2026)

Whether I'm on the sidelines of a game, capturing the action of an athlete, or taking portraits of athletes, I am dedicated to delivering stunning and memorable images that truly capture the spirit of sports.

Thank you for visiting my website, and I look forward to capturing the moments that matter most to you!
