About Me

Hi, I'm Ashley D'Annunzio.

Nice to meet you! I am a mom to my son and daughter, two dogs, and two snakes. Animal lover here! I live with my husband, Will (sometimes he assists with my sessions so you might get to meet him), and recently my mom and teenage sister moved in! Multi-genrational household, rollcall.

I have always loved the camera, and started photography in the sixth grade when I joined my school's yearbook staff. I continued throughout high school, eventually joining the editing staff. I decided to start photographing expanding families in 2010 after my mom had my youngest sibling and I did my first maternity and newborn sessions for her.

I consider myself a "nerd" and outside of photography I enjoy reading novels and comics, playing video games, and coloring. I identify as a bisexual cis-woman and adore the LGBTQIA+ community. I am now also training as a Postpartum Doula, previously a childcare provider of 15 years. Children are tiny little lights in the world and working with them has always been a passion. In both my professions I have experience working with children from 0-18, multiples, and both physical and developmental differences, experience that I utilize as a photographer to ensure my clients are always safe and comfortable in front of my lens. I'm also CPR/First Aid certified and have taken multiple classes on newborn photography safety and posing.
