Ashton Vinyard (Streifert) is a portrait and lifestyle photographer based in Knoxville, TN. Her passion for natural light portrait photography is what led her to start her own business in 2015 back in Nashville.

She loves working with clients of all ages, especially the little ones. With a little babe of her own, her experience working with children means she’s pretty much seen it all. She prides herself on her patience and knowledge of working with young ones and is very flexible when it comes to making sure your child is comfortable and happy, even if it means going over the typical 1-hour time frame.

Ashton is set on delivering nothing but the best high-quality photos that are unique to her clients while having her own sense of creativity in the pictures.

Katherine Birkbeck Photography
Types of photography: Family lifestyle, wedding, newborns
Our babies grow up too fast so capturing their smiles, their laughs, and the love you all share together is so important. I love to capture families so that you look back and remember what life was like at that age and so your kids always look back and remember how early you loved them.

Wolffie Photography
Types of Photography: Lifestyle, Family, Maternity
I’m Emily Wolff, the mother of two very energetic little boys! As a mother I understand the thought of family photos can be stressful. Worrying if the kids will behave and if you’ll get any good pictures out of it? Your children may want to run around, or they might want to just cuddle with you. I embrace those moments and just let the session roll! I love the honest moments that make your family so special. I do my best to capture how things are right now. Your children grow up so fast and the days fly by.
I love being able to capture the joy and the love that those little humans have right now. I love being able to see how much you adore your children. Seeing the joy that is there from your babies, who may not truly be ‘babies” anymore.
During our session we will have fun! We’ll dance, We’ll play, I might sing terribly!? Either way I know we’ll leave with great pictures and it will have felt like I just spent an hour with friends! While I specialize in lifestyle family photography I also love doing maternity sessions. I truly believe that time is one of the most special and magical times we have in our lives. I love being able to show women how beautiful they are even when they might not feel like it.

I’m a 20-something, University of Kentucky graduate (Go Cats!) from the hills of small-town Appalachia, now living in Knoxville, Tennessee. By day, I work as a pediatric speech-language pathologist, and by night I’m an avid Netflix connoisseur. My favorite title is dog-momma to my two, sweet fur babies, Cash & Hank. I truly believe a body of water, a good book, & a cup of coffee is the recipe for a well-rested soul. I thrive off of a good adventure. I’m a thrill seeker and hope to spend life exploring amazing places! I love to cook and experience great food. Music soothes me, my momma is my best friend, & I’m pretty sure any problem can be solved with donuts & ice cream. I’ve truly never met a stranger and would love to meet you!
I specialize in joyful, keepsake photography. Families – I’m a big fan of “casual”, so be prepared to chase your littles, play “peek-a-boo”, skip rocks, hide and seek; anything to keep them active, entertained, and smiling!
