SHOWCASING YOUR FAMILY LEGACY

WHETHER YOU’RE A MOM-TO-BE, CAPTAIN OF THREE OR ANYTHING IN BETWEEN AND BEYOND, YOUR FAMILY IS A GIFT TO BE TREASURED AT EVERY STAGE.

As a mom myself, I know too well that feeling of wishing like time would just…stop. One minute, your baby is pulling himself up on the coffee table, learning to stand, and the next he is scoring the winning goal in his middle school soccer game. And while I can’t stop time, together we can freeze moments. Through a laughter-filled, lighthearted family portrait session, we can preserve this unique season of life, transforming it into an everlasting piece of your family’s history to be enjoyed for generations.

Ashley did an amazing job capturing our little family. I was super nervous and she put us at ease immediately. Honestly, the process seemed way too easy that I thought no way are our photos going to turn out. Instead, she captured the heart of our family and was amazing with our 1-year-old and old dog. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime. Thank you, Ashley!

MORE THAN IMAGES

Through my family portrait experience, you’ll come away with more than just beautiful photos. You’ll have beautiful memories to match. From selecting the perfect location (whether that’s out under the glittering blue sky or snuggled up at home) to helping you coordinate outfits, patiently wrangling the kiddos to drawing out mile-wide smiles, your portrait experience can be stress-free and truly enjoyable. And because it’s customized to your needs and wishes, you’ll see your family’s unique set of fingerprints on every inch of your gallery.

Ashley is such an easygoing and talented photographer. We just got our photos back and we are floored by how good she made us look!

Frequently

asked QUESTIONS

Q:

I just know my kids won’t behave for our session, so I’m nervous to even book. How can you help?

A:

Don’t worry! As a mom myself, I know kids are energetic, rambunctious, and unpredictable. That’s why my session experience rejects the idea of perfection in favor of connection. Life isn’t all perfect smiles and flawless poses, so let’s wholeheartedly embrace the hugs, silly faces, and wet kisses that make your children come alive in photos! Let’s encourage them to play and tell funny jokes. I promise you, the more fun they have, the more genuine their smiles will be, and nothing makes a photo more beautiful than your little one’s toothy grin.

Q:

do you offer petite session or session outside of your area?

A:

Yes! I love offering petite sessions for families who don’t need a full session. Petite sessions are offered during specific times of the year and are released through my email list. I am happy to travel to wherever you would like! Travel fees can apply unless I am already in the area. Travel dates are also released through the email list!

Q:

I have no idea how to coordinate outfits for a photo. Help!

A:

Trust me, I know selecting outfits that compliment each other while making every family member happy is no easy task. So, once you’ve booked your session, I’ll send you a guide stuffed with tips covering exactly this question. I even offer complimentary outfit consultations to ensure you aren’t stressed by clothing the morning of your session!

Q:

How many images will we receive, and how can we download them?

A:

Each session is unique, and because I strive for quality over quantity, I shy away from promising a set number of images. I would much rather deliver 25 beautifully crafted images you can’t wait to hang in every room of your home rather than 50 that you leave hidden away on your laptop forever. So, no matter how many images you receive in your final gallery, I promise you’ll love everyone! And because your session includes a print release, you’ll be free to download, print, and showcase your images as often as you like.
