Moments that are deeply felt, yet so rarely reflected back to us.

FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY CAPTURED WITH INTENTION & PRESENCE

Rarely do we have time to savour the fleeting moments of family life. The seconds in a day when your heart bursts for your children melt away everything else. It's those moments I feel called to frame — alchemizing moments into visual poetry.

I bring a feminine, intuitive lens to my work, guiding you with care so you feel your best and can simply be present. Which also means I’m fixing your hair, catching your best angles, and quietly taking care of the details along the way. So you feel seen, and recognize yourself in these moments.

EXPERIENCE

A curated experience from start to finish.
Wardrobe and styling are planned together, so everything feels cohesive and considered.
Location is selected based on light, mood, and vision.
Your session can include be a Family, Motherhood, Fatherhood, Newborn session or any combination of the above. It’s up to you.
During the session, I direct you through movement, connection, and stillness. You don't have to think. Just show up, and I'll guide you from there.
The result is imagery that feels effortless, refined, and connected.

THE PROCESS

Preparation creates space for real presence.

Every artistic detail of your session is considered before we even meet, then I direct every moment so you can simply be present.

With families, this direction takes on a different shape. I know how to read and channel your children's energy, turning it into the candid, unguarded moments that feel most true. I guide through play and lead you into presence which means your kids stay engaged, the session stays flowing, and you're free to just be. You don't have to worry about what to do with your hands, how your hair falls, or managing your children.

FULL SERVICE PRINTING

Savour this life of yours. Relive it in the heirlooms that carry your story forward, forever unfolding.

Photos on walls hold emotions meant to be revisited. Books, a centrepiece for your home, all reminders of this moment in time. Preserved, to be relived and growing more precious with age.

They are your heirlooms, your visual legacy, your quiet works of art.

MOMENTS WORTH REMEMBERING

Featured

Marguerite

After having an amazing experience with Ashley for our maternity shoot last year, I recently booked her for a family photo session, and we couldn't be happier. Ashley is incredibly kind and professional. She was also so patient with our son and made the whole shoot fun and relaxed. We received our photos faster than expected, and they turned out beautiful. The colours and lighting were absolutely perfect. We’ll definitely be using her again!

Yasmine

Ashley is an amazing photographer with a modern style. We had her for a pregnancy photoshoot and loved her style so much that we did a newborn session few months after. She makes you feel comfortable in the session and the pictures would turn out like they’re straight out of a magazine.

Ilana

Our family had a photoshoot at Ashley’s stunning Montreal studio. She is an effortless artist, extremely professional and kind, and truly brought my vision to life. Her artistry is hard to find. I would recommend her 10/10!

Denise

I was initially hesitant about doing maternity photos, but Ash made the entire session feel relaxed and natural—not just for me, but for our whole family. Her work is not only beautiful and high quality, but also incredibly consistent in style and vision. One standout detail was her offering a curated wardrobe selection, which made the process so much easier and less stressful. It’s those thoughtful touches that really set her apart. I would absolutely recommend Ash to anyone looking for a high-end, personalized maternity or family photo session in Toronto or Montreal!

We had an amazing experience with Ashley. She made our family photoshoot so relaxed and fun, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning. She captured genuine smiles, beautiful lighting, and special moments we’ll treasure forever. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer!

Lorie

From the moment we met, she made us feel completely at ease. She is one of the sweetest people to work with; so warm, patient, and professional. Sometimes being in front of a camera can feel intimidating, but she has a way of making everything feel effortless and comfortable.

What stood out most to me was both the experience itself and the final gallery. The photos are absolutely stunning. She has an incredible eye for capturing genuine moments, and every image feels meaningful and timeless. The final images exceeded my expectations in every way. If you’re considering booking with her, don’t think twice; you will not be disappointed.

Tracy

We had a family photoshoot with Ash when my baby was 8 months old, and it was such a wonderful experience. Ash was incredibly calm and amazing with our little one. I wasn’t quite feeling like myself postpartum, but she made me feel so comfortable and beautiful throughout the entire session. The results were absolutely beautiful, and we’re so grateful to have these precious moments captured. Thank you again, Ash!

FELICIA

Of the various photographers I’ve encountered and worked with to capture my life events, none have yet compared to the work of Ashley. I highly recommend her. Her style, and her personality are irresistible. She is very professional and a delight to deal with. Timely, talented, tasteful, and timeless photography skills.

Anastasia

We had a wonderful experience shooting with Ashley. I loved the way she had captured motherhood and felt she would be a great fit for our family. She did not disappoint! She made us feel natural in front of the camera and was fantastic with our 6 month old. We are so pleased with the timeless final images and cannot wait to share with our friends & family.

Rita

The entire experience felt effortless and enjoyable, and her warm personality made the session so much fun. The final photos exceeded our expectations and captured beautiful, genuine moments that we will cherish forever. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and incredibly patient photographer, especially for family sessions with children!

SABRINA

I couldn’t be happier with my experience! Her work is amazing, she is incredibly patient, and is wonderful with children. She takes the time to make everyone feel comfortable and guides you through poses to ensure the best angles are captured. This was my second photoshoot with her, and it definitely won’t be my last. I would recommend her over and over again!

Claire

Ashley is a DREAM to work with. I was a little nervous about our family photoshoot because we have two boys (age 2 and 4) - one of whom can never stay still, and the other is rather shy, especially with strangers. Ashley charmed them both - they LOVED her and got really comfortable with her. The shoot ended up being so much fun. 10/10 would recommend.

Sophie

For me, Ashley’s greatest strength is her ability to guide us during the shoot. She has a clear vision of what she wants to create, even down to the smallest details—like how a strand of hair might fall across our shoulder. With her background in the performing arts, Ashley puts us at ease in front of her lens and guides us through movements that are a bit like dance—organic and fluid. And over time, we return for more sessions—with the kids or for portraits—because Ashley becomes a friend and gets to know us, and I love seeing how we’ve grown as women and moms, and especially watching the kids grow up through her camera.

RACHEL

Ashley is a creative and talented genius behind the lens, and has a unique eye and gift to capture beautiful moments. She’s professional, punctual and an absolute dream to work with. She has a wonderful way of making others feel immediately comfortable and confident. Thank you Ashley for capturing moments and memories I will be able to look back and admire always.

Amanda

To say that Ashley is a talented photographer is an understatement. My favourite photos are ones that she’s taken of me! Ashley not only has the ability to create a well balanced scene, but she will capture you the way you've always wanted to be seen. The photos that she’s taken of myself, my love, and my friends will forever be timeless representations of that moment.

NOELIA

Working with Ashley was simply amazing. Her warm welcome and calm demeanor made me feel comfortable right away. She has such a detailed eye and every photo is taken with such care. She ensures you feel and look confident. She made the process of taking photos really fun and I can’t wait to work with her again.

THERE’S NO PERFECT TIMING

There will always be a reason to wait. A season that feels more right, a body you feel more comfortable in, a phase when the kids are easier, a time when everything feels more settled.

But families don’t pause until you’re ready. The chaos, the tenderness, the way they are right now — this is the moment.

Reach out. Say hello. Moments become more meaningful when we decide to make them so.

Toronto & Montreal FAMILY Photographer

Hi, I’m Ashley.

The privilege of capturing motherhood is one I do not take lightly. I am devoted to honouring your journey, to truly reflecting the power and beauty I witness. I've photographed over a thousand mothers, and I feel it every time.

I always wanted to photograph mothers differently. There were so many images out there that just didn’t reflect the way I saw women. I wanted to sense their unique essence, to capture their power and beauty in a way that felt symbolic, timeless, artistic, editorial, and real. It wasn’t until after I became a mother that I truly understood just how meaningful and sacred capturing these images would be.

I know what it's like to want to feel guided, seen, and genuinely at ease in front of a camera. That's what I build every session around. Sometimes the work calls for a fully realized production, other times, I strip it back entirely. No matter the artistic direction, I value poetic and publication-worthy results.

It is truly a gift to create and connect with other mothers. If you’re a mother reading this, it’s my sincere intention to hold space for you and your family, and, through my lens reflect the beauty the world sees in you.
