chattanooga family photographer

real moments. real connection. real life.

The moments you don’t pose for ... the warmth, the tenderness, the chaos, the comfort. That’s the stuff that matters most with time. Not the perfect version, but the real one.

My goal isn't to make you look like anyone else. It is to show your people the way you actually experience them. The way this chapter feels right now, just as it is. If you are up for that, I'm your gal! 



REAL LIFE MAKES THE BEST PHOTOS

get in touch

hey there! 

I'm Ashley ... a lifestyle & documentary photographer based in Chattanooga, TN, married to my favorite person, and homeschool mom to two boys. I have always been drawn to emotion and connection and I’m happiest when things feel simple, unhurried, and a little wild. That rhythm naturally shapes the way I photograph families.


... more about me

We have used Ashley for years and I always love how our pictures turn out. I've got two wild boys and I'm always worried we won't get a good shot, but somehow she pulls it off better than I could have imagined. She makes you feel comfortable and gets very natural shots that truly capture the moment. I highly recommend Ashley and look forward to our next session!

Ashley did a wonderful job photographing our family! She was patient, professional, and even managed to get great pictures of our three wild kids! Beautiful editing too! We will definitely use Ashley again!
