I’m Ash, a documentary-style photographer based in Indianapolis, Indiana. I’m a little bit spunky, a big feeler and very silly. If you know me you know hugs are like balm to my soul and I’m only ever the play button away from starting a dance party. I love thrifting, fashion, and like to think of my personal style as a little on the edgy side and very neutral to the core. Deep conversations (with a lot of laughter bc comedic relief) over coffee and being neurodivergent are two things that make me, me. I’m wife to my high school sweetheart, Bryce, and momma to our three silly kids, Valerie (7 years old), Barrett (4 years old) and Sloane (2 years old).
My love of photography was born out of a season of working through a lot of pain. Having always been creative at heart, art has always been a means of expression for me. I’m a deep feeler and love to write, sketch and photograph as a way to express and explore emotion more intimately. I have found great healing in being blessed to photograph and bear witness to many beautiful complex humans over the last ten years.
Over the last seven years, I’ve explored the complexities of my own life, unlearned and relearned how I want to show up in the world, and have found more peace than ever with the person I’m becoming. This journey has deeply shaped the way I show up in my business, too. What began a decade ago as an aesthetically driven engagement and wedding photography business has become so much more. It’s developed into the raw and honest cultivation of genuine moments - regardless of what season my clients are in.

about
Every experience must be held tenderly. The human experience is delicate and should be treated as such. No matter what season you find yourself in and the variation of feelings that might accomany it, you are deserving of having your moments remembered. In my own personal experience, I've found healing through the abillty to look back on seasons of my life that were captured. It's messy and lovely and so grounding to see the beautiful alongside the hard. This is how life is, though, isn't it? Your deserving of having your memories documented isn't reliant on where you are or what you're going through. Holding space for nuance, I focus on capturing the fleeting, honest moments—the ones you might forget because life moves so fast. The tiny gestures, the shared glances, the quiet moments of connection. These are the moments that matter. I’d be so honored to help you remember them.
