Hello! I'm Ashley, a food and portrait photographer based in the Chicagoland area.
Photography wasn't initially on my career radar—I spent nearly a decade as a flight attendant and thought I'd retire in that field. However, when I became a mother, I decided it was time for a change. Capturing precious moments with my family sparked a desire to improve my photography skills and document our lives more authentically. That's when I bought my first camera, and it opened up a whole new world for me.
Enrolling in a food photography course with Pretty Focused was a turning point. I discovered a passion for creating visually captivating images of delicious dishes that stop people in their tracks. I love pouring my creativity and meticulous attention to detail into the art of food photography—it brings me immense joy.
Now, I'm excited about the journey ahead and all the possibilities it holds.
