ABOUT
Welcome!
Thank you for visiting I'm Ashley, a photographer specializing in newborns, children and family portraits serving Long Island, NY.
As a Mom of three children I understand how fleeting time is. We watch our babies grow and change so much from year to year and sometimes I wish I could just freeze time! What personally gives myself peace of mind is having a collection of beautiful family photographs to continually look back on. It is my passion to create these unforgettable memories for yourself
Offering both At home session and on location
My style is classic, simple and organic. I aim for the focus to be on the baby and not lost within a lot of backdrop noise or added props. Newborn sessions are a mix of posed shots with coordinating color schemes and using parents hands and arms as props. I do offer natural baskets and props as well to pose the baby in if desired.
Family photo sessions are done at a mutually agreed location. When working with children I don't like to just give directions, I take the time to find out interests and create a fun environment. To get natural expressions you need to create real experiences! I often involve simple games or give them a challenge or task. They often relax a bit when they have something else to focus on.
And believe it or not one of my favorite subjects to photograph are... toddlers!
WHY? Maybe it’s the challenge? Maybe its their untamable energy?
Or...that pure honesty! ;)
Many parents have some trepidation booking a session with a toddler. I can assure you that my ability to work well under pressure, quick thinking, exceptional patience matched with a knack for anticipating a moment with
my camera is ultimately what delivers those fun and carefree toddler
photos that you'll love.
Most importantly I always make the sessions fun, even for adults portraits!
