About Us

Ashley

I’m the person dedicated to capturing your lifes moments. Born and raised in Winona, MN, I moved to Woodbury, MN in 2022 with my 5 year old daughter. I’ve been taking photos since 2013 when I got my first professional camera for my birthday! Here’s some quick facts about me:

1.) My go to coffee order from Caribou is a Campfire Mocha, half the flavoring, extra shot.

2.) Other than dogs, my favorite animal is a sloth and/or penguin!

3.) I’m a real estate agent as well as a property manager.

4.) I love tattoos. I have 6 with the intention getting more.

5.) I’m all about tacos and sushi!

What people are saying!

Hailey:

“My daughter and I did the mommy and I mini photo shoot! It was extremely fun. Ashley and Jena are very compassionate and patient individuals. My little one wasn’t cooperating some of the time and they were so friendly and loving towards my child.

My family will definitely be coming back to these two for pictures!”
