This is an inclusive space for anyone feeling inspired to create warm, timeless, and cinematic moments with a photographer who cares deeply about telling a story in every shot.
No matter what moment we're honoring in your life, my mission is to help you craft the perfect environment to capture the beauty your memories deserve.
Being in front of the camera can make even the most outgoing humans feel a little uneasy, but as someone who feels the same...I'll be rooting you on from start to finish, helping you move through the session with grace, ease, and a lot of laughter.
Formerly based in Los Angeles, I now travel the country full-time as a destination based photographer specializing in places like California, Montana, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, and more!
With travel included in all of my US pricing, I can't wait to meet you somewhere beautiful to create the most epic memories together.
"Sometimes, it can be the most ordinary moments that creates an extraordinary piece of art." - Rick Rubin
WHAT IS LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY?
Visual Storytelling
To put it simply, it's a style of photography that puts telling a story...your story, at the top of my priority list.
It's a way to make each photograph feel like you pulled it straight from a movie scene. Epic, emotional, cinematic.
Movement Over Posing
My goal, above all things, is to capture you as authentically beautiful as you are. No stiff or rigid posing here.
This style of photography allows you to breath easier through the session by incorporating movement and a fun activity or two into our time together.
Authentically "You"
My eye for crafting a shot combined with an understanding of what makes you feel joy is how we create photos together that you'll fall in love with over and over again for years to come.
We'll work together to choose activities and location ideas for a perfectly "tailored-for-you" kind of session.
MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
ASHLEY CHRISTINE ROBERTSON
I’ve been inspired by the art of photography and the way they hold our memories for us since I was just a kid. I grew up traveling with my grandfather up and down the coastline of California obsessed with the way he made his clients light up in front of his camera. And as the years have passed, my passion for that kind of storytelling has only deepened as I continue to work with my own clients.
After 10 years of building up my business & clientele in Los Angeles, I took a leap of faith to change life in a big way. I now travel full-time in a fifth wheel with my wonderful fiance and our two rescue dogs (Bam Bam & Levi). Being out in the world, ready to capture the beauty of wherever we end up next, is truly a dream come true.
At the end of the day, these images...they're an extension of my soul and my passion to make others feel beautifully seen. So by capturing these precious moments for you, you're creating the most special moments for me. And for that, I'm forever grateful.
A FEW FUN FACTS:
☼ I’m an identical twin (born on the day of the Northridge earthquake that struck Los Angeles in ’94)
☼ Even though I was born in Los Angeles, I consider Nashville to be my home since my family moved to Tennessee when I was just a toddler.
☼ When I’m not behind a camera, I’m behind a microphone or a guitar. I love to sing and write and I’’ve been deep in the throws of getting my first EP out into the world. I can't wait to share it with you!
☼ Every year, in the fall, I get to ride horses through open pastures & ranch land in Montana, and it might be the closest thing I'll ever get to heaven on earth.
