I’m, Ash!

I photograph growing families in a way that feels calm, natural, and low pressure.

You do not need to know how to pose. You do not need a spotless house. You do not need to feel “camera ready.”

You just need to show up as you are.

I focus on perinatal photography, maternity, newborn, fresh 48, birth stories, and the honest in-between moments of becoming a parent.

“Ash was amazing to work with for our newborn photos, I feel so fortunate she was able to squeeze us in, especially right before the busy holiday season. We had just moved to the area so I reached out very last minute- our baby came 4 weeks early. I was so stressed I was going to miss the opportunity to capture his newness. She quickly responded and booked our in home session. She made everything super comfortable took the most beautiful photos of our family (including our almost 2 year old who she was able to work with throughout the shoot to keep her engaged!). She was very easy to work with, communicative and got our pictures back quickly as well. I will treasure them forever!

Had we lived here sooner I would have loved to utilize her doula services too- her personality and nature are very comforting and I can tell she’d be a great support person during birth. Plus she’s a wealth of knowledge in the space. So she glad to know her and have her as a resource for the next baby!

How It Works

Connect
We start with a quick chat about what season you’re in.
Are you pregnant and feeling like time is moving too fast?
Snuggling a brand new baby?
Wanting photos that feel soft, real, and not awkward?
We talk about the vibe you want, the setting that feels best, and what matters most to you.


Plan
I help you choose a session that fits your family and your comfort.
You get simple prep guidance, what to wear help if you want it, and reassurance that nothing needs to be perfect.
This is documentary style support, not a performance.


Photograph
During your session, I guide gently but leave room for real life.
Lots of snuggling. Movement. Breaks for feeding or toddlers doing toddler things.
You will never be rushed, and you will never be asked to fake a moment.

Remember
You receive a gallery that tells the truth.
Not just what it looked like, but what it felt like.
These are the photos you come back to when your baby is suddenly five.
