Meet Angela 

I’ve been drawn to imagery and storytelling since I was a child — long before I held a digital camera. My journey began in middle school with a handmade pinhole camera and afternoons spent in the darkroom, watching prints come to life beneath trays of developer and fixer. That early exposure to fine art photography shaped everything I do today.

 

I approach photography the same way I approached those early darkroom images: with curiosity, care, and the pursuit of something timeless. Whether I’m photographing a wedding, a mother and child, or a quiet portrait, I’m always seeking the right angle, the unique expression, the human story that turns a photograph into an heirloom.

 

I grew up surrounded by art in South Carolina and now call Alabama home, where I live with my husband and two beautiful daughters. One of them — my sweet and spirited protégé — often joins me on shoots. She’s my second set of eyes, and more importantly, the one who makes our clients feel truly seen, truly celebrated.

 

At Angela Nash | Modern Heirloom, we believe photography is not just about documentation — it’s about presence. We’re honored every time we get to help preserve a love story, a family’s legacy, or a fleeting season of life. These moments are sacred. And we consider it a privilege to help you remember them beautifully.
