DURHAM REGION FAMILY & MOTHERHOOD PHOTOGRAPHER

Emotive, artful, and timeless—my photography is an heirloom, preserving the beauty of motherhood and family in its most honest form. A blend of editorial storytelling and nostalgic warmth, crafted to be treasured for generations.

For those who value honest connection, nostalgic beauty, and images that feel like home.

I’m Ashley Taylor Allen—a photographer, storyteller, and mother, living in Oshawa with my fiancé, two little ones, and a deep love for nostalgia.

My work is rooted in the quiet beauty of motherhood and family, blending editorial storytelling with organic, emotive moments. I don’t just take photos—I create heirlooms that feel like memories already, timeless and filled with feeling.

If you’re drawn to imagery that’s more than just a photograph, but a piece of art to hold onto, we might be the perfect fit.

THE EXPERIENCE

A session with me is slow, intentional, and rooted in ease. Think of it more like a quiet afternoon together than a photo shoot. I’ll guide you just enough to help you feel comfortable, then step back to let your family’s rhythm take the lead.

My approach is gentle but artful—
blending editorial composition with emotional honesty. I’m drawn to the in-between moments: the way your baby reaches for your hand, the laughter you weren’t expecting,
the softness of simply being together.

Whether your little ones are calm or full of energy, we’ll follow their flow—because that’s where the magic lives.

These are the moments that become heirlooms.
It’s honest, a little wild, and full of feeling.
The kind of images you’ll look back on and feel all over again.

LET’S CREATE SOMETHING TIMELESS

Whether you’re ready to book or just beginning to dream about your session, I’d love to connect. Together, we’ll create something timeless—artful, emotive, and uniquely yours.
