Lela Ruth Photography We are a full service portrait studio providing a timeless experience through Maternity, Motherhood & Family photography.

We proudly serve North Mississippi and surrounding areas. Photography is my passion and it's my joy to be able to offer this service for others. I have been working as a professional photographer for over eight years but I have been in love with photography my entire life. I am driven to provide every family the opportunity to hold on to a memory forever. Each photo captured is an inspiration to t

he natural beauty of things. Life's little moments happen every day. I have been blessed to watch my daughters grow into the beautiful girls they are. It's important that we hold on to these little moments and it's my duty to make sure that no moment is left uncaptured. Let our family become part of your family and let's stop time in a single photo that we can cherish forever.

When I first started this journey in maternity photography, I had no idea how much it would shape me not just as an artist, but as a person.

I’m deeply grateful for every mentor who poured into me, guided me, and helped me grow into the photographer I am today.

I don’t say this often, but I am proud of myself. Proud of the risks I took, the consistency I showed, and the vision I refused to let go of.

For so long, we’re taught to look for validation from the outside but the most important praise is the kind we give ourselves.

And today, I choose to honor how far I’ve come.

The first image was taken right before everything shifted for me before I truly elevated and committed to mastering my craft.

What changed?
I invested in myself.

I chose to learn from photographers who were operating at a higher level than me and that decision changed everything.

If you’ve made it this far, thank you for being here. Truly.

Revisiting my older work always reminds me why I fell in love with creating in the first place. 🤎
There’s something so special about bringing an idea to life and turning fabric into art.

This dress was made by me 👗✨

I’m beyond excited to create more imagery like this at my upcoming workshop — focused on elegance, movement, styling, and creating timeless maternity art. So many beautiful concepts are coming to life and I can’t wait to share the experience.

PHOTOGRAPHERS — I’m personally inviting you to join me for my in-person maternity workshop, The Art of Fabric & Light.

This is more than just a styled shoot. It’s a hands-on learning experience where you’ll learn how to confidently control light, create stunning movement with fabric, and pose your clients in a way that feels natural, elegant, and powerful.

You’ll walk away with practical techniques you can immediately apply to elevate your work, create images that truly stand out, and confidently charge your worth.

If you’ve been wanting to create more intentional, artistic maternity portraits — this workshop is for you. Save your seat now before the remaining spots are gone.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone anymore.

So many photographers walk into maternity sessions carrying quiet pressure — wondering if the lighting will work, if the posing will feel natural, if the images will be “good enough” to truly move someone.

And when you care deeply about your art, that pressure can feel heavy.

The Art of Fabric and Light was created to change that.

This workshop is more than learning how to toss fabric or set up lights beautifully. It’s about learning how to create images that feel soft, powerful, emotional, and worthy of the women standing in front of your camera.

A safe place to ask questions.
A space to grow creatively.
A room full of photographers who understand the desire to create something breathtaking.

You’ll leave with:
• Lighting knowledge you can actually apply
• Confidence directing maternity sessions
• Stunning portfolio content
• A deeper understanding of movement, fabric, and emotion
• Inspiration that reignites your creativity

You are capable of creating the kind of work that stops people in their tracks.

This is your moment to step into it.
