Hi, I'm Ashley Abernathy

​

​​I’m a family, maternity, and newborn photographer based in Georgia, capturing the kind of moments that feel like home—honest, connected, and effortlessly you.

​

My journey with photography started in 2017, and for the first five years, I photographed over 40 weddings a year. Those seasons shaped me in the best way—teaching me how to anticipate moments before they happen, find beauty in the in-between, and tell stories that feel real and lasting. Even then, family sessions were always woven in… the quiet, meaningful moments I kept coming back to.

​

Now, my work has shifted alongside my life.
As a mama to Willow (2) and Axel (8 months), I’ve chosen to slow down and be more intentional with my time—taking on a carefully selected number of weddings each year for couples who value a heartfelt, connection-driven experience.

​

These days, my heart is rooted in family and motherhood photography.

​

Because I know firsthand how quickly this season moves.
How much you want to hold onto it.
How meaningful it is to simply be in it.

​

These are the images your babies will grow up with.
The ones you’ll come back to years from now.
The ones that remind you exactly how this season felt.

​

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m at home with my family—soaking up slow mornings, decorating cozy spaces, and probably making a Target run I didn’t plan on. Life in this season is full and beautiful, and that’s exactly what inspires the way I photograph yours.

​

My approach is simple:
I’ll gently guide you when you need it, step back when you don’t, and create space for real connection to unfold naturally.

​

Because the best photos aren’t forced—
they’re felt.

​

It’s truly an honor to be invited into these moments and trusted to capture your story.
