Playfully Romantic Engagement Session - Taber, Alberta

Sam + Zac
This playfully romantic engagement session was absolute magic. The wind was blowing hard most of the day with imminent rain in the forecast, but we decided to just go for it. Clearly, it was a good idea to not cancel as the sun poked out and the wind basically stopped. Couples are one of my many favorites to work with, the love and playfulness if just something that makes my heart happy. I won’t blabber on, just enjoy these two, and get excited with me for their September wedding.

You’re amazing if you made it this far.

Mother + Daughter Bubble Bath Session - Lethbridge, AB

Capturing motherhood is something that sets my soul on fire. These simple moments pass us by before we can realize it, and then they are just gone. Not something we can rewind to. It is so incredibly important to capture the moments. To save these moments as memories that we can look back on. The thing with a simple photograph is, it has the power to trigger your memory, your mind, your imagination. A photograph can take you on such a beautiful journey. Focusing on the little moments has changed my perspective on everything, it has also changed the way I see through my lens. Open your eyes and see the beauty that life has to offer.

Now let me share with you, a story of a bubble bath filled with love.

Thank you for taking the time to look at these, I hope you can see the love that these two share, as well as all of the joy sweet Demi brings forth.

Have the BEST day.

Simply motherhood session in Taber Alberta

Simply motherhood
Melissa and Jaycee have this beautiful connection, her first baby, her true love. And oh my goodness does it ever bring me joy to capture these moments of connection for them. As a mom of a now 10 year old, I truly know the importance of having these images to look back on. They are truly only little for such a short time.
I had a little “helper” for this session. My 4 (almost 5) year old daughter. She HAD to sneak in a couple photos, wanted to take a few of her own, and drove me a little bit , you know.. But in the middle of everything, like a typical newborn, Jaycee had a giant newborn poo. This is basically my Bella’s dream come true, she thought it was hilarious. Disgusting but it’s the little things right?

If you make it to the very bottom, I tell you all about my Simply motherhood sessions that are now available.

The Snow Queen in Taber Alberta

The Snow Queen

I believe everyone should push themselves beyond their comfort zone, the farther the better. This is where growth comes, this is where you find those new little pieces of yourself that weren’t visible before. Growing up I would not consider myself to be creative, I could not close my eyes and picture that final product, and my uneducated or practiced efforts were not so pretty. Instead of trying I LIED to myself. I said “You are not creative.” That one lie stayed put for YEARS, even into my first year of business. I know now how silly that was of me. I am creative, my art is beautiful, I have worked REALLY freaking hard to get to where I am, this is not a little thing, this is a really really big beautiful thing. And it only happened because I told myself the truth. “I am creative” and then believed it.

OLIVIA // IN-HOME NEWBORN SESSION

This beautiful in-home newborn session took place in Coaldale, Alberta in the most beautiful home. Something about newborn sessions, and the little details just grabs my heart and holds on tight. Sweet Olivia is so loved, and it shows in each image. I’ll stop talking now so you can look at all this goodness.

Lets chat about the magic we can create together.

Playful + Romantic in home couples session - Lethbridge Alberta

Emily + Kurtis’ in-home session, Lethbridge Alberta

Love is the most beautiful freaking thing in this world.

One of my favorite parts about working with couples is getting to know their story. How they met, little quirks, just anything I can learn about them. It not only translates my images from a simple image into artwork that holds memories. But it allows us to connect and have actual conversations during each session. In the end giving them something that they will look back on and treasure.

The love between Emily and Kurtis is real, and these images you are about to see will give you a little peak at it. Their home is absolutely adorable, and oh my gosh their cat.. (You can’t even tell how much Kurtis didn’t want to be doing this.)

I suck with words so lets just get on with it.

so basically, if you could fill my schedule up with sessions like this and i’ll be forever grateful.

xx,

Ashley

Magical Motherhood Session - Lethbridge, Alberta

Rose, Keean, and I met at Indian Battle Park in Lethbridge, Alberta. The weather was perfect, beautiful sunshine, just enough wind, and the cutest little mother son duo you ever did see. We found a perfect little spot in the grass and sprawled out. Keean was hungry but very intrigued by the camera. His little eye brows - seriously. The most expressive little face I’ve ever seen. Keep scrolling to enjoy his many looks.

So yeah, I am in love with them all and hope you enjoyed checking them out.

PS this was just a mini session that got out of hand, woops. Sometimes its just too good to stop shooting.

Family farm session - Taber, Alberta

We spent the evening running around their family farm in Taber, Alberta. Running in and out of the beautiful light beams - laughing way to hard. To say it was perfect wouldn't be a lie. Its not uncommon that I connect well with children but by the end of our session together these two wanted me for a sleepover, which of course is the best thing to hear. 

Vanessa and Brady are picture perfect and capturing their family was just great, so I will leave it at that and show you the goods
