about ashley

I’ve always had an eye for color and it’s visual representation in my mind. I can remember in kindergarten, putting my birthstone ( peridot ) earrings up to my sweater just to make sure they matched perfectly to wear for my first day of school. And then that led me through high school art classes that I was able to show some work, but never really had a style. I thought I was headed to college for architecture, but after dabbling around with my dad’s Pentax 35mm, I found my love for mixing photography and color with design. I received a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and Bachelors of Fine Arts in Photography from Winthrop University and have been creating design + photographs for over twelve years.

I call South Carolina home where I live with my precious husband Evan and two daughters. I can’t function without a few cups of coffee I travel basically anywhere I’m asked, but I love a the crisp air of the mountains. If you’re interested in grabbing a cup of coffee, let’s connect!

The heart behind iti

I had been a photographer and designer for about ten years before my dad suddenly died at the age of 58. I’m so gracious and blessed that he walked me down the aisle, and gave me away to my precious husband Evan. Through years of grief and learning how to function without him, I’ve learned the indefinite reasons why photographs are an heirloom, and possibly the only physical item that references certain times or feelings in your life. I want to preserve that for as many people within my reach.

Who Do I work with?
