“As a mom, family photos have always been stressful. I would dread having to try so hard to look perfect and get that perfect picture. But family photos with Ashley are different - she encouraged us to strive for authentic rather than ‘perfect.’”

ARE WE A GOOD FIT?
I’M SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE AND THAT YOU’RE INTERESTED IN GIVING ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO DOCUMENT SOMETHING SPECIAL TO YOU. LET ME TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHY I MIGHT BE THE PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOU.
I CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. I CARE ABOUT SERVING PEOPLE WITH LOVE, INTENTION, AND EXCELLENCE.
I’VE ALWAYS LOVED DOCUMENTING. IN ALL FORMS - PHOTO, VIDEO, WRITING, PAINTING. I BELIEVE THIS EXPERIENCE WE’RE GIFTED WITH IS WORTH MAKING ART OUT OF.
AREN’T WE THE ULTIMATE MASTERPIECE?
THAT IS WHAT I WANT TO EMPHASIZE. THAT AMONGST THE CRAZINESS OF THIS LIFE, WE ARE HERE. RIGHT NOW. AND SOMEDAY THOSE THAT COME AFTER US ARE GOING TO WANT TO KNOW WHAT WE WERE ALL ABOUT. WHAT OUR LIFE REALLY WAS. WHAT WE CARED ABOUT. HOW WE LOVED. THE WAYS WE SHOWED CONNECTION AND CARE.
HERE IS WHERE YOU FIND US - IN THIS EXPERIENCE.
AND WE ARE THE ART.
“Ashley took the time to understand our story and the complexities that come with it to make sure she captured us in our authentic light. When we got the album back we laughed and teared up through it. Every photo in our album is unique and meaningful, encapsulating a moment in time that will always be close to our hearts. We couldn't be happier.
— ALEXZIA WAGNER-ENGMANWHY DOES IT MATTER?
when I think about my childhood, it brings me great joy.
playing in the 4 acres behind my home with my siblings. climbing trees. swimming in the lake. dancing to backstreet boys. playing house. riding four wheelers. ice skating on the lake. fourth of july parties with my whole family. playing hide and seek in the woods. birthday parties. camping in our backyard. sleepovers with my sister. these memories are so dear to me. my mom documented us fairly well for the 90s and there are still only a few photographs and videos of these moments in time that mean so much to me. if I could have one thing from my childhood, it would be just that.
home videos and photos of these dearest times -
besides who you become, it’s all you take with you.
I INTEND TO MAKE HEIRLOOMS FOR YOU. MOMENTS, PRICELESS CORE MEMORIES, DOCUMENTED, FROZEN IN TIME. MOMENTS THAT WILL TURN INTO THE NOSTALGIA YOU CRAVE. FOR YOU. FOR THEM. CORE MEMORIES, NEVER FORGOTTEN.
and that little girl over there is thrilled that you’re considering her to document your beautiful life.
