hi, im ashley
Your photographer
“I PROMISE TO PHOTOGRAPH YOU AND YOURS WITH THE UTMOST CARE, CREATIVITY, AND PASSION”
When a Christmas present in 2008 turned into the most fulfilling and life giving career I could have ever imagined…
I’m 15 years in and still regularly have pinch me moments. I am so glad I switched my major in college and chased the dream.
It has been an amazing ride where I have had the opportunity to shoot over 300 weddings, and upwards of 2,000+ portrait sessions. I am incredibly passionate about documenting the true love between people and the innocent sweetness of children.
After 13 years in the wedding industry I decided to hang up my hat after a cancer diagnosis in 2022. It was a great run, and I miss it dearly, but I know focusing my efforts on photographing families is exactly what I am meant to be doing at this time.
I am excited to get back to shooting families full time in 2025. I will be shooting at 5 locations around Columbus this year. You can click the below links to book or email me directly! And, if you have a creative session idea or location be sure to let me know!
*Book a session at Humble + Pine Studio * Book a session in German Village * Book a session at Alum Creek Beach *
*Book a session at Franklin Park Conservatory Community Gardens *Book a session at Bryn Du Mansion in Granville
