Maternity
In endless awe of motherhood: the expansion, the becoming.
Maternity Photography with a modern editorial approach
This is a season of transformation, of softness and strength, anticipation, change, and quiet connection. There is something deeply powerful in this time. My maternity shoots are intentional and refined, creating space for you to feel present in your body and your story. Together, we’ll capture the emotion and anticipation of these moments, while shaping them into imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and artful.
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 may include other family members — it’s up to you who joins.
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.
FULL SERVICE PRINTING
These are your heirlooms, your legacy, worthy of being held.
The unfolding of your story deserves to be witnessed. To be savoured not just in the moment, but for all the moments to come.
They should live, be printed in books, hung on walls, and held close as your motherhood journey continues to unfold. My art is to capture the emotion of this time, and shape it into imagery that feels elevated and swoonworthy. So you can return to it, feel it, and see yourself in a way that feels just as powerful as it truly was.

Toronto & Montreal Maternity 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, through my lens, reflect the beauty the world sees in you.
