Ashley was an absolute pleasure to work with! She did my Fresh 48 when I had my daughter. Ashley checked in with me throughout the pregnancy and especially toward the end which was really nice! My girl decided to come on Christmas Eve, and Ashley still made sure that our shoot was a priority even given the holiday! Ashley kept my baby calm and happy and allowed for feeding/changing breaks. I also had a really hard recovery and she worked around me sitting very well. All in all the pictures were gorgeous (seriously, I’m amazed at how they turned out!) and the whole experience was completely stress free. I highly recommend! Plus, Ashley herself is the sweetest ever :) More...

Ashley was so amazing to work with! She took all of my suggestions and got such good pics! It's so hard to find a photographer since you can't get a do over but you won't be disappointed. She was straight forward about my contract and easy to get a hold of. I can't say enough, I am so happy with the pics I got back! More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love that I am able to capture many moments through life for my clients. I love meeting new couples, families and other creatives. Each client is unique in their own way, I love learning about each and every one.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My sister actually inspired me to launch my business professionally. We are very close although we live 16+ hours apart, photography is something we are able to share together, bond over and understand the trials and tribulations of running a small business together ha!
Why should our clients choose you?
If you have viewed my portfolio and website and you feel like we would be the perfect match then I am so excited to hear from you! Every photographer is different and has a unique style of photographing and editing. I choose to photograph in a documentary or journalistic style mostly in organic settings. I also hand-edit each and every photograph that is delivered. I continue to stay informed and educated on the ever changing technology in the industry as well as the ins and outs of getting that perfect portrait. My company is insured and I carry backup equipment with me in the unlikely event of an equipment failure.
