Whether you're a brand, a bride, or besties - we are about to have a kick ass time together, I can promise you that! This is a place to allow your most wild and adventurous creativity shine through! An opportunity to capture the unfiltered, unapologetic moments that make you...well, YOU! We will work together to craft a "tailored for you" kind of session that feels effortless, authentic, and like the most fun you've ever had in a photoshoot!
Let's break it down! Lifestyle photography is a style that aims to capture authentic moments and real-life situations. It focuses on the more natural and unposed aspects of your life. . I am so passionate about incorporating this "view point" across my different sessions to create images that feel authentic, engaging, and emotionally resonant, enhancing the overall storytelling aspect of my work.
From elopements to commercial photography, incorporating these elements adds a personal touch and a sense of realism to your images. For sessions like portraits and weddings, it means documenting the genuine interactions, emotions, and your unique story in environments that hold a special meaning to you to create authentic and cinematic results. In commercial photography, lifestyle elements help to humanize your brand or product by showcasing it in real-life scenarios. The focus is on capturing moments that resonate with your target audience, creating a connection and making your product or service more relatable.
I've always been a deeply passionate storyteller. After moving to Los Angeles 10 years ago, I fell in love with the art of freezing time and special moments. Between the variety of people and styles and the unique landscapes scattered throughout this oceanside metropolis - I've felt nothing but grateful to soak up every taste of inspiration I find. This camera, these images...they're an extension of my heart and my soul being moved by small moments in time. By capturing these special moments for you, you're creating the most special moments for me. And for that, I thank you.
Fun Facts:
My favorite thing in the world is igniting that confidence within you and making you feel like the bad ass that you truly are!

There is nothing that brings me more joy than seeing you step into your power and allowing the environment to wrap you up in a world of having fun, and simply playing.
And look - I know being in front of the camera can be intimidating for all of us, but I promise that the fear will quickly turn into joy! So breathe easy and trust me, we are going to have and epic time together!

"Most amazing experience! Ashley is an incredibly talented photographer, she was able to look at a location and be able to move with the sun wind and waves to create the most magical shots!
It seems to come effortlessly to her and she has the best time while behind the lens. I can’t wait for our next session with her!"
"Our family photoshoot with Ashley went so smoothly! She gave plenty of pre instructions to coordinate and be prepared for the shoot. The day of she was so sweet and helpful, and the shoot its self was quick and easy, we just had to be ourselves while she snapped away And she made magic happen! I love how she captured everyone's personalities and all the love in our little family in these photos!"
"I can’t even begin to explain how amazing Ashley and her photography is. She has shot so many memorable and important life events and the way she makes you feel in front of the camera is amazing.
I always thought of myself as awkward but she makes you feel extremely confident. The photos came out so amazing and perfect."
As a world traveller and adventure addict, there's nothing that makes me happier than traveling all over this beautiful world to photograph what is special to you.
