I am a portrait photographer who specializes in family, newborn + maternity sessions. My style is timeless, fresh and playful - and I love pretty light. 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. I hope to get the opportunity to work with you!
I''m Ashley
Congratulations!! The journey to motherhood is such a beautiful and exciting one, and I love capturing it so that you can look back on it forever. My light + airy maternity sessions are aimed at documenting this special season in a classic, timeless way while providing a comfortable and easy process for your family. I offer a full-service experience with a Prep + Planning call (if you would like!),
access to my client closet curated with beautiful maternity dresses, and a Session Prep guide and other resources that will help you plan for your dream session. My location guide will provide you with both outdoor options or my light-filled studio and you also have the option to pair a maternity session with a newborn session as part of a membership. Let's make some magic together.
THE EXPERIENCE
Send me a message through the "contact" page on my website (or email at ashleybricknerphoto@gmail.com). Let me know how many weeks you are (so I can help recommend the best timing!), and we will go from there!
Let's chat!
Once you are ready to move forward, I will create a booking link for you and all you have to do is sign the contract and pay the deposit. Once that is complete, your spot is reserved on my calendar!
Let's book that session!
As soon as you book your session, you will receive my Session Prep Guide and other resources for planning (including my Style Guide!). You also have an option to book a Prep + Planning call for all full sessions. I love the planning process and love to help you with this!
let's plan for your session!
Yay, it's session day! And I'VE GOT YOU!!! All you have to do is show up ready to show off that beautiful bump and I will take care of the rest. I will guide you through poses with prompts to ultimately provide you with a beautiful gallery of images to document this special season.
let's have the session!
After your session (usually between two + three weeks!), you will receive an email with a link to your gallery. The photos are easy to download and the link is easy to share with family + friends. With full sessions, you can save, print and share all the high-resolution images in your gallery. You will have the option to upgrade to a membership and pair your maternity session with a newborn session.
Let's get you those photos!
All newborn sessions booked with Ashley Brickner Photography are given access to my natural-lit, timeless studio in the Great Neck area of Virginia Beach. This offers a light + airy setting that is comfortable for the entire family. Full session clients also given the option to use to my client closet, a curated closet of dresses (size small-large) that photograph beautifully. If you would like to learn more about the studio or client closet, send me a message and we can start chatting!
