Ashlyn McKenna Photo 

DIGITAL & 35MM PHOTOGRAPHER
KNOXVILLE & BEYOND

I photograph weddings with a balance of intuition and structure — knowing when to step back and observe, and when to offer clear, thoughtful direction.

My work blends timeless black and white imagery with intentional color, creating photographs that feel both editorial and deeply personal. I believe the best images are created when you feel comfortable, present, and fully able to enjoy your day.

From the first conversation to the final gallery, my role is to create a calm, seamless experience — so your memories are documented with care and intention.

I can’t imagine what my wedding would have been like had Ashlyn not been our photographer. Aside from being an awesome human who help will keep you CALM (something brides-to-be don’t often consider when booking their photographer), collected, and confident on the day of, Ashlyn is ahead of the game when it comes to wedding photography. She knows how to get the most intimate, fun, candid, yet old-Hollywood, Vogue magazine-style shots that are personal to you and your S/O! I’m so excited to see her future photography work as well.

1000/10 recommend Ashlyn for your photo wants and needs! She is absolutely INCREDIBLE! She made me feel so comfortable, never put any pressure on me, and was so encouraging during the most special, yes nerve wracking day of my life! Wedding day was my first time meeting her in person (we had talked over the phone a couple times) and it felt like a friendship I had had for a while! She is so sweet and SO talented. Every photo she captured was perfect.
