Children’s Portraits with Ash
Organic, nostalgic, “feels like them” photos of your kids being kids. Documenting details and milestones, sibling relationships and gap-toothed smiles, dimpled hands and coming-of-age eyeliner…
Photos that show who they are.
A low-stress portrait experience for you and your kids.
With nearly 2 decades experience I offer playful Children’s Portrait sessions that celebrate your child’s individuality while respecting their attention span and energy. With patient intentionality there’s plenty of time for your child to warm up, move, talk, play and express themselves while documenting what’s natural and real. No forced smiles, stress, stiff poses, cheesy props or “look over here” baby-talk gimmicks. The result?
Timeless portraits that highlight the beauty your child just as they are.

Kids & Parents Say…
“The session itself was a joy. My kids were able to move around the studio freely and she caught them as they naturally are (mischievous, goofy, grumpy, sweet). We gave a photo to my husband's parents and it brought them to tears. The quality of the printed photos are gorgeous & the photo book has a clean, timeless look and the binding and cover can handle the little hands that have all ready flipped through it dozens of times.” - Heather
“Her ability to put everyone at ease, help them be their best natural selves is amazing and so welcomed in a world where everything is staged.” Kevin
“My family has gotten our photos taken by Ashley since I can remember, there’s nothing me and my siblings look forward to more than when she comes. She’s funny and kind and always reassures you that you look great. I love her and adore the photos she takes.”- Stella, 16
“She had my children’s attention by engaging them in conversion and being truly interested in them and what they like to do. This made them open to her and more willing to be themselves in front of the camera. This translated into beautiful photos that… captured the individuality of each of my children. Ashley is a delight, as well as an amazing photographer. So professional as well as personal. I’d highly recommend her to anyone.”- Meri
