Hello Sunshine!
I’m Ashley, the little lady behind the camera!
Growing up I was always searching for my place in the world. I wanted so badly to find where I belonged, where my strengths could shine and where I could simply be myself. Luckily, I was able to find that when I discovered photography.
Through photography I am able to connect with people and understand them on a deeper level. When I look through my lens I don’t simply see a smile, a giggly child, an awe struck lover or the bond a family has. I see YOU. I see the world you’ve created for yourself, the love that has developed throughout the years and the strength behind starting and raising a family.
If I’m not out taking pictures of some of the most beautiful souls, you can usually find me being a full time assistant/nanny. Yes, that’s right, I currently book my photography only on the weekends. One day my business will be my one and only job, but right now I’m loving balancing a full time job and running my business!
When I’m not booking sessions, you can always find me at home living my best life with my husband, Walter and our four fur babies (pups Atlas and Echo, cats Gizmo, and Nova). I’m typically drinking my third cup of coffee, all while my animals run wild through the house and Walter plays video games in his game room. It may not sound like much, but it sure is my perfect escape.

My Other Half
This is my husband, Walter. He’s my best friend, my go-to person when I need advice and the one that has a laugh that could melt my world.
Most nights you can find us both home cooking and watching anything to do with Gordon Ramsay. May seem mighty boring, but home is where we find we are most at peace. When we do get the urge to get out and wander, our favorite thing to do is drive around Los Angeles finding new food places to enjoy.
We love hanging out with our close group of friends, watching every single movie that comes out in theaters, especially if it’s Marvel and spending time with family.
We first started our adventure together in 2013 and were together for 10 years before we got married on November 26, 2022.
Our Fur Babies
Gizmo
Our fluffy first love. He’s a feisty, fluffy Maine Coon that loves his treats, outside bird watching and cuddles (but only when he wants them). Ten years old and still as playful as ever.
Atlas
Bigger brother to Echo. Australian Cattle Dog/Red Heeler. He was the first born in his litter. Atlas is the big lover of the two boys. He will tell you he wants attention by pawing at your arm, laying on your whole body with his and when Atlas gets super excited he cries out with all his vocal might.
Nova
The little girl of the bunch. She’s our adorable one year old silver tabby that we adopted our first month in our brand new home. She loves naps on shoulders, bread crumbs and will cry if she needs cuddles.
Echo
Little Brother to Atlas. Australian Cattle Dog/Red Heeler. He was the baby of the litter. Echo’s cautious, but always willing to show off how high he can jump and how fast he can run. With a toy always in his mouth, he is constantly ready for play time (even when you’re sleeping).
