Hey friend! I’m Ashley—a caffeine-fueled human who runs on coffee, chaos, and creativity. I grew up bouncing between a few different states, but no matter where life has taken me, the Midwest has always had my heart. These days, I live with my other half, Tyler, our two fluffy hooligans (Drogo and Kira, a.k.a. Huskies who pretend they pay rent), and our newest little adventure, Olivia, who joined our squad in April 2025. Let me tell you, becoming a mom has been one of the greatest blessings of my life and changed the way I view the world.

Outside of photography, I’m basically a walking Pinterest board of hobbies. Hiking? Love it. Sushi? Can’t resist. Bonfires, sunsets, traveling, blasting music in the kitchen while cooking dinner—sign me up. And just to sprinkle in some nerdiness, I’ve even got a tattoo of a video game I started playing at the age of eight. Zero regrets.

When it comes to my work, I’m not here to stage some fake-perfect version of your life. That’s unrealistic! I live for the messy, spontaneous, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments—the genuine laughter, the stolen glances, the little things that make your story yours. I want your photos to feel like you. And bonus? We’re going to have a ridiculous amount of fun while making them. I’ve had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember (shoutout to Mom for always being my OG cheerleader), and capturing raw beauty has never just been a “job” for me—it’s part of who I am. Every click is my way of bottling up joy so you can relive it forever.

The chick behind the lens!
