It is the ability to capture REAL MOMENTS, WHILE CREATING ART TO REFLECT AND PRESERVE REAL EMOTIONS, that continues to DRIVE MY CREATIVITY.
I am a full-time creative portrait photographer born and raised in New Jersey, now living in the Washington DC area. I graduated from Virginia Tech in 2019, where I spent most of my college career shooting live music and events - a hobby that grew wings and introduced me to a world of artistic expression.
I fell in love with photographing people in love with what they do - striking a passion for capturing passion.
I am inspired by mythology, Renaissance art, fantasy, dark academia, Hozier's music, Gothic architecture, and people in love.
Hi, I'm ashton
Through the medium of photography, my creativity soared. It is my goal to harness the same feelings from my clients. I take pride in my creative process, because it is through exploration and collaboration that my clients are able to nourish their individuality and gain inspiration too.
Have you ever had a talent that you didn't really utilize? That was how I felt throughout my entire childhood - I had a talent for art, but I lacked the patience to pursue painting and drawing, and so I felt that I was wasting a gift. It was not until I discovered photography that I came to realize this was the true form of art where I could flourish. With photography, I never felt impatient, I finally felt inspired and I am so grateful for that discovery.
