Hi, I'm Ashley

South Okanagan Motherhood & Okanagan Newborn Photographer

As a mother, I know how quickly the early days go by. After having my daughter, I fell in love with the art of photography; it was a fun hobby that allowed me to have special photos of my baby's little features that were changing every day. After I had my own motherhood & breastfeeding portraits professionally done, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to make this happen for other mothers. I started my Summerland & Penticton newborn and family photography business and I've been here ever since!

The Okanagan photographer for your most special milestones.

"Ashley made us feel so comfortable throughout the photo session, effortlessly matching our family's energy, which was wonderful considering we had a young toddler and a golden retriever with us.

We were thrilled with her ability to capture so many genuine, candid moments of our family interacting, along with some perfectly posed shots. We are incredibly happy with our pictures and look forward to having Ashley photograph our family again in the future!”

"We thoroughly enjoyed the sessions with Ashley.

The pictures are completely natural, and captured the essence of us as a family.
The photographs of our son’s numerous expressions will serve as precious reminders of his time at this gorgeous beach she had photographed us at!!
I've also had her do a more intimate photoshoot of when my son was breastfeeding and I cried with joy when I saw the results of those photos! They are my favourite to look back on!"
