“When Ashley takes your photo everyone is at ease. You don’t feel like you’re being “told” how to act or pose. She manages to make you feel comfortable with becoming vulnerable and then captures your soul. I can’t imagine having anyone else take our photos.” -Tehmi Tolbert

Do you offer prints, albums, and high resolution files? As a full service portrait photographer I offer the best of the best in fine art prints, customized heirloom albums, and digitally prepared high resolution file packages. Most clients spend between $800-$2000 on prints, gifts, and albums.

What do your portrait sessions feel like? I value the real over the contrived and work to create images that feel like you. I take my time, I’m patient and collaborative. A skilled director I work collaboratively to capture what you want documented (those wrinkles, that little touch…)and what hides in the familiar.

What can I do to prepare for my session? When we’re focused on/worried about what we’ll look like in photos, that’s what we’ll remember looking back. But when we connect and enjoy the space, the light, being together, the experience- that’s another story and it’s told in the pictures. My advise is the same for photos as it is for everyday: do what makes you feel good before, during, and after your session. Listen to songs you love, eat/drink foods that nourish, rest often and deeply, wear what you want, laugh and cry when necessary and let your family do the same.

What do your sessions include? Prices are “all inclusive” and cover studio fees and gear my time and talent to create, edit, curate a print ready gallery of portraits. Low resolution digital files for online sharing are included in every session. High resolution files, fine art prints and custom heirloom albums are sold separately. See more below.

When will my images be ready and how will you send them? Your print-ready images will be available to see and share no more than 2 weeks after your session date. Galleries are shared via password protected private gallery and are available for viewing, sharing, and ordering for 6 weeks.

What do photo edits include? My edits are simple focusing on composition, color, and exposure. Open sore acne and temporary scars, scratches and bruises are removed at the client’s request. I don’t do body alteration edits.
