Ashley approaches everything she does with passion and creativity. From a young age she has been involved in the arts, taking classic B&W film photography classes in high school (dark room, chemicals, projectors) and continuing college courses in fundamental art and graphic design at Chemeketa Community College in early 2007.

Ashley graduated June 2008 from the Hallmark Institute of Photography located in Western Massachusetts, where she pursued her certificate in business photography. She currently resides an hour south of Portland Oregon (Aumsville) where she is freelance shooting and specializing in portrait, editorial, and commercial work.

"I have grown in a family that fosters art expression and the power it holds in our world, and this desire to express myself has found it’s home in photography. I see it as a means to tell a story, share an emotion, and bring substance to feelings and ideas that are waiting to be born."
