I’m Ashley Taylor, a seasoned photographer with over a decade of experience, currently residing in Oshawa with my fiancé, Mitch, our two children, Wilder and Elowen, our English Bulldog, Charlie, and two cats.
Creating has always been at the core of who I am, expressed differently throughout the years as I continue to evolve and grow as an artist. Photography is one form of art I have consistently gravitated toward for as long as I can remember. From my early days photographing food, interiors, and family, to building a career in brand and lifestyle photography, my journey has always been driven by passion.
This season of my life is deeply rooted in motherhood and the beauty of home life, inspiring my focus on family and motherhood photography. I aim to preserve raw, authentic moments with an organic aesthetic that evokes nostalgia.
Alongside my motherhood journey, I’m always busy fueling my inner entrepreneur, chasing what moves and excites me, and growing my career as an art director. It’s busy. It’s exciting. But at the end of the day, I get to wake up and do what I love—and that’s what matters most.
Beyond photography, I have a love for cooking, baking, nutrition, and all things vintage—especially ’70s furniture and fashion. Thrifting is my happy place. I’m also a huge fan of competitive reality TV (Top Chef, Survivor, and Big Brother are my favorites!) and have always been passionate about music, live shows, and events.
Mitch and I also share a love for vintage vehicles. We own a unique photo booth business, The Photo Bus Booth which features our vintage Volkswagen Buses and Airstream–I’m so excited to continue to incorporate these special pieces into my sessions.
Life is busy, creative, and ever-evolving, but I feel incredibly lucky to wake up every day and do what I love—documenting the beauty of life as it is.
