Hi, I'm Ashley,
I'm your central Iowa photographer specializing in high school senior pictures, tweens, and creative photography.
I create bold, personality-driven portraits for high school seniors who want something beyond the ordinary. Whether you're an athlete, artist, musician, outdoors enthusiast, or somewhere in between, As your senior photographer, I design every session around you. Your senior photos are built to highlight your personality, your style, and everything that makes you unique. No two seniors are alike, and your images shouldn’t be either.
From seniors and athletes to families and professionals, every session is customized with thoughtful planning, creative lighting, and locations that fit your style. The result is a collection of vibrant, true-to-color images that capture genuine confidence, real personality, and moments you'll be proud to look back on for years to come.
My goal is to create an experience that's easy, fun, and tailored to you, so your personality shines through in every image.
Bold, unforgettable senior portraits designed around your personality, passions, and style.
Confident, personality-filled portraits that celebrate this unforgettable stage between childhood and the teen years.

Our family of 5 just had photos done with Ashley and we had a great time! She had a great idea to take photos in.Water Works Park with the apple blossom trees blooming and it was beautiful! Ashley is very nice and easy to work with. She came up with silly games for our young kids so they stayed entertained. We have a lot of fun action shots! Our son became grumpy during the shoot but Ashley won him over and we got even more shots. Thank you Ashley for a great time and beautiful family photos!
