When I first met Darci, I felt like I had known her for years! She is kind, smart, and extremely photogenic! Surprisingly, she told me that she was pretty nervous about the session, but she could have fooled me! Darci posed effortlessly and needed next to no posing guidance! You better believe I’m going to […]

Every once in awhile, you cross paths with someone who you know is going to change lives.  Katie is that person for me. I first met Katie in 2012, she was only 8 years old.  I was doing a session for she and her family and even at such a young age, she was wise […]

I’m sure you all recognize this lovely face by now!  I try to get my beautiful niece, Mackenzie, in front of my camera as often as possible.  Not just because she’s a dream to photograph, but because it’s a great excuse to spend more time with her! Wesley joined in on the photoshoot fun and […]

This college senior session, at Gardner-Webb University, is an extra special one.

Senior sessions have quickly become one of my new favorites!  Documenting this important stage in life and hanging with beautiful ladies is so rewarding!  And let’s be honest…they help keep me up to date on fashion and the latest trends!  🙂 Hannah’s breathtaking session, at Gardner-Webb, has truly stolen my heart!  No only is she […]

Riley’s senior session was truly whimsical!  She is such a natural in front of the camera and the props she chose gives the images an editorial feel!  How about that gorgeous red hair?!

My fabulous intern, Sarah, has only been with me for a month and it feels like we’ve known each other for years!  She has been such a blessing to have around and our little shootouts are so fun!!  This girl doesn’t take a single bad picture and I just love getting her in front of […]

I'm a small-town, North Carolina, photographer and full-time spaghetti enthusiast!  If I'm not behind my camera or computer, you'll be able to find me at the barn with my horses or in the garden - I'm pretty sure that I'm a wannabe plant lady at heart!

I'm Ashley
