In 1918, Ulmann devoted herself to studio portraiture. Around 1925, in the wake of increasing urbanization and modernization in the United States, Ulmann became interested in preserving rural traditions and folklore. She traveled extensively throughout Southern Appalachia as well as in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and New York, where she photographed Dunkard, Shaker, and Mennonite communities.
