We have derived analytical solutions using Jacobi elliptic functions for bound and nearly bound photon orbits in Kerr-de Sitter (KdS) and Kerr-de Sitter Revisited (RKdS) spacetimes. Leveraging our obtained solutions, we have conducted an analytic ray-tracing in both spacetimes. We have obtained direct images, lensing rings and photon rings for equatorial disks considering inclined locally static observers. Images corresponding to n=(2,3) exhibit a significantly closer resemblance to the critical curve as compared to the n=1 image. This highlights the remarkable potential of these higher-order images as robust testing grounds for General Relativity (GR). Furthermore in both spacetimes, we have obtained analytical solutions for the critical parameters governing the structure of the photon ring and analyzed these parameters in details.
