hi!

I’m Kelly! Owner & Photographer here at Kelly Mullins Photography! I am a coffee ADDICT. I also love Mexican food, my three dogs and lazy Sundays! I'm a huge Upperman High School sports fan and you will often find my husband and I cheering them on at the games (GO BEES!)

I have been creating memories for clients in the Upper Cumberland for close to 12 years, specializing in newborn and children portraits for 7 of those years. Babies and children are my passion! I just love creating relationships with them and capturing portraits that you will cherish for years to come!
There are so many things about their little personalities that you never want to forget and I make it my goal to create photographs that showcase all of the unique things about YOUR baby. It is my hope that you come to the studio feeling comfortable and at home. If there is anything I can do to make it a smooth journey for you, please don’t hesitate to ask!

I love to decorate, DIY and all things crafty. I'm obsessed with coffee, mexican food and anything pesto. Organization is my love language. My best friend is a schnauzer named Rex.

My favorite color is pink (which you will definitely see in the studio!). I love anything vintage, boho or mid century modern and lots of soft layers and textures.

I am a mom myself! Ian and I have three daughters, two of which are young adults already so I know how fleeting these early years are. Our time with all of them at home came and went so quickly and now we cherish any time that we can all be together.

My husband Ian and I have been married for 19 years. He is the biggest supporter of me and of my business. Without him, there would be no KMP! We are both from Tennessee and wouldn't want to be anywhere else. We love watching Titans football together on Sundays, supporting our Upperman High School sports teams and doing projects around the house. Well. I probably enjoy that more than him.

Kelly met and exceeded every dream of mine with these photos. She cared for our baby in a way that only a momma could and it made me feel so at ease and comfortable the entire time at the studio. ALSO, her studio is the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen!

Kelly is absolutely amazing! We have four girls and she's done all of their newborn sessions! Each time making them all feel so welcome and comfortable on top of capturing the most amazing photos!

Our family used Kelly for portraits of our first grandchild. Her images are heirloom quality! We fell in love with each image. She was professional and kept us informed of the process leading up to the day of the session. If you have a newborn, we strongly recommend Kelly! You will not be disappointed!
