HI, I'M EMILY.
I am a nashville-based photographer with 10 years of experience in portraiture and lifestyle photography. Love a good story and if you tell me one I will repeat it. A good movie theatre popcorn or a London Fog and you've got my attention. I collect interior design books and read them cover to cover. If I cotuld be left to my own devices in any city it would be Nice, France. And I chose to not find out gender with either of my kids pregnancies; love a good surprise.

I'M A FIRM BELIEVER IN THE DEVISION OF LABOR
I'm a mother of two, and I get the mental & physical load behind prepping for a family session. That's why I make things as simple as possible.
Location recommendations. Scheduling around the perfect golden light. Straightforward booking process. Easy rescheduling when your kid gets sick. Posing and directing on set. Editing with natural tones that will look good in a gallery wall with your other photos.
Trust me, I'm a mom. I understand the glory of working with a professional.
Life is more dynamic than static.
I believe you should get caught up in the joy of your actual family and leave the aesthetics to me.
little details that mean everything
Photographer: Emily Heinkel
Hello! Thank you for visiting my portfolio. My goal in any portrait session is to deliver photos that make my subjects say, “Wow, that’s unmistakably me,” and in the same breath, “I’m beautiful.”
I have made it my obsession to capture the most natural, beautifully-honest likeness of each person, but more than that: their feelings and emotions.
If you could see us working well together on those goals, drop by my contact page and leave me a note. - Emily
