Hello

Hi! I’m Ashlyn, a passionate birth photographer based in the heart of Chattanooga, TN. I believe in capturing the awe-inspiring moments that mark the beginning of life’s most precious journey.

 

While I adore the art of birth photography, my heart finds comfort in the great outdoors. I love exploring alongside my sweet German Shepered, Shadow, who brings me endless happiness. She goes with me everywhere!

When I’m not behind the camera, you'll find me basking in the golden hues of enchanting sunsets or sipping on a refreshing smoothie (or a perfectly brewed cup of coffee!)—little pleasures that add magic to life's everyday moments.

    My Story

    Birth photography holds a special place in my heart, and I am constantly in awe of its beauty and significance. I discovered my true passion for birth photography, a journey that was sparked by my profound love for couples photography. Initially, I set out to become a birth doula, driven by a strong desire to provide support and education to women as they embarked on their extraordinary journeys of bringing new life into the world. Little did I know that God had a beautiful plan in store for me. As I delved further into the realm of birth and motherhood, I realized that my camera had become an extension of my heart and soul. It was through the lens that I found a way to intimately capture the vulnerability, rawness, and immense beauty inherent in every birth. By combining my role as a birth doula with my passion for photography, I could authentically document the incredible stories unfolding before me. With a documentary style approach, my goal is to create images that transcend words, showing just how extraordinary and captivating each birth truly is. I am honored to witness the strength and resilience of both mothers and their partners, and it is my heartfelt mission to preserve these precious moments for eternity, serving as a testament to the miraculous power of life.
