I am a portrait photographer who specializes in family, newborn + maternity sessions. My style is timeless, fresh, and playful - and I love pretty light. With every photo session, I make sure to get the "smiling" + posed shots (because those are important!). Yet I believe that the best portraits are the ones that tell a story, capturing real interactions and heartfelt emotions. My overall approach is relaxed - I want your experience to be fun + easy, so that your family can interact and be yourselves, while I capture the beauty of your relationships.
hi, I'm Ashley!
My four daughters are truly a dream come true. Motherhood is my favorite part of my life + also the hardest - it's brought me more joy and stretched me in more ways than I ever could have imagined. My little women are my why, watching them grow so quickly has shown me how important documenting each season of life really is.

I met my husband in 10th grade Math class, I was wearing my cheerleading uniform the day that he noticed me + we started passing notes the rest of the year! I never could have imagined this life we have built all those years ago. He has always supported all my crazy ideas + big dreams, this business would not be a reality without him.
married to my high school sweetheart
I have a degree in Fashion Merchandising + never "planned" on being a teacher, but it fell in my lap after moving to my hometown after college. Teaching high school brought me so much joy for many years! I have now captured photos for many of my former students, which is such a fun full circle moment.
former fashion marketing teacher
I have loved all the aesthetic things since I was a little girl, and both fashion + interior design are still huge passions of mine. If I am not hanging with my family or photographing someone else's, I am probably planning my next home project - my favorite rooms to decorate are definitely my kids spaces!
lover of all things aesthetic
Other than capturing my own kids, I first learned the basics of photography by working with many different brands. My work has been featured on many websites and marketing materials for some of my favorite companies - it's really such an honor! I still work with a couple of them, but have mostly transitioned to family photography.
