Here at Ashley Watkins Photography, you get a photographer who specializes in capturing beautiful moments for families, mothers, newborns, and expectant mothers. Whether it's a fun family session, a precious newborn shoot, or a beautiful maternity session, I am dedicated to creating stunning images that you will treasure forever.

As a mother myself, I understands the profound significance of having a visual legacy that encompasses your entire family. Oftentimes, it's the mothers who assume the role of family photographer, resulting in a shortage of images featuring them alongside their children. Through the lens of my camera, I aim to document genuine, heartfelt moments that authentically portray the unique bond between you and your loved ones.

As a former teacher with years of experience, I have developed a deep reservoir of patience, allowing me to connect and engage with kids of all ages, ensuring natural smiles and genuine moments. While play is a cornerstone of my photography approach, I also excel at capturing timeless posed shots, blending both styles seamlessly to create a diverse and memorable collection for each client.

With 10 years of experience, Ashley Watkins specializes in lifestyle family, children's, and maternity photography in Southern Mississippi (Hattiesburg, Petal, Sumrall, Richton, Biloxi, Ocean Springs, and surrounding areas).

If you are a mom who struggles with coming up with outfits, or a pregnant mom who feels that everything they put on them is ugly, my client closet is just for you. It offers a curated selection of outfits, allowing families to look their best without the stress of wardrobe decisions. This thoughtful touch enhances each session’s aesthetic, creating stunning, memorable images.

Let Ashley Watkins Photography preserve your cherished memories, celebrating those special moments at every stage of life.
