“I don’t want to just give you pretty pictures but an unforgettable experience that will stay with you for a lifetime” - Ashley Nicole
I’m Ashley Nicole,
I love photography and helping others see their beauty. In 2022 I decided to open my own photography business because I’ve experienced first hand how powerful and moving a photo session can be. I want to share and spark those feelings of joy with you!
When I think about being able to photograph my clients and show them how truly beautiful and magical they are it gives me immense joy. I’ve been modeling since 2008 and went through my share of struggles with negative body image, negative self talk, feelings of not being worthy and lovable. It was only when I did my first nude photoshoot that I was able to see my body from someone else’s view and a lightbulb went off in my head. It was the first time that I saw my body and didn’t immediately pick out all of my flaws. I saw it and thought “Holy shit, that’s me!”. My goal is for you to have this same experience. At whatever stage you are in your life. I want to give you the experience of being able to appreciate just how freaking amazing you are at this moment in your life!
My Purpose
To shift your perspective and improve your self image. I want you to see how amazing you are! In the body that you are in, in this very moment. I want to share with you and pass along all of the knowledge that I have learned over the years about body positivity, body neutrality, confidence and self love in order to help you in your body and self love journey. This isn’t just another photoshoot where you get your photo taken, this is an experience that will stay with you long after you’ve gotten your photos back.
Down With Societal Beauty Standards
I enjoy photographing humans as they are. I’m not heavy-handed with photoshop. You are going to look like you. In my portfolio you will see individuals of all different races, shapes, sizes and gender identities who also might have stretch marks, cellulite, wrinkles, hip dips, body hair, moles, freckles and skin texture. All of these features are part of being a human, having skin and a body that changes. All bodies change. I’ve made the deliberate choice to not photoshop them out. I want to celebrate you - all of you in your natural state - because you are beautiful just as you are!
My Mission
I help you to explore your feelings and thoughts surrounding your body and reconnect you with your sensuality by providing you with a safe, non-judgmental space, coupled with an intimate photography experience. This experience will give you a new appreciation for yourself and your body while also receiving beautiful imagery.
