Hi! I'm Ashley, owner of Budding Roses Photography where we specialize in capturing the radiance of loving families! From maternity to newborns, children, and the whole family, my one goal is to freeze a special moment in time as your heartwarming memory. Photographs have always played an important role in my life.
To me, there is nothing better than looking back and reminiscing. And as the momma to four amazing kiddos, I know they grow and change faster than we realize. As I try my best to do with my own family, it's my mission to help my clients save and savor life's precious details. I'd describe the style of a typical shoot as professionally guided but child-led, which creates an enjoyable and memorable experience for all.

Amazing experience from beginning to end. The pictures are beautiful and the session was low stress. She really knows how to work with kids. I can’t say enough nice things!
Edit to add:
Family/newborn photos were awesome and the special Santa sessions for the holidays are absolutely wonderful, the photos are great and the kids get one on one time with Santa. Vastly superior to any mall photos or other Santa experience, well organized, beautiful photos and they gave time for my kids to warm up to their amazing Santa to ensure we got a nice photo and a wonderful experience.

I checked out the Budding Roses Facebook page and I liked how not all of the photos were formal shots where all family members were posed and face-front, like in school photos. They were more organic and had thoughtful details.
Ashley responded to my inquiry for a Newborn session quickly and was transparent about packages and pricing. Once we set a date, she sent a questionnaire to get a feel for what kind of photos I was looking for and what I would do with them, which was very helpful.
The day of the photo shoot was fun and relaxing. She's a baby-whisperer and was very patient with my twin

Our family has grown, and we needed a photographer who could get great pictures while working with our munchkins' short attention span. Ashley from Budding Roses Photography was wonderful at this and more. She helped us by getting great pictures that we can enjoy while working with our family to make the experience fun for the kids and painless for us as parents. We were very happy to have worked with her to get pictures we will cherish.

We went to the Santa photos offered at the Chirp Workshop in Flemington. My daughter was under two at the time and quite timid around strangers. While it was difficult to get my daughter to smile, Ashley did a great job at catching the ONE she did flash. My daughter also didn’t cry while on Santa’s which was surprising- maybe she was too scared to move HAHA. Anyway, I think Ashley did an excellent job and we love the first set of professional Santa photos we got for our first born.

Budding Roses Photography is amazing! Ashley was so easy to work with for our newborn photo shoot. She happily allowed us to include our fur baby in the pics which was really special. Ashley is personable, patient, and so sweet! She has tons of set ups to fit whatever theme you want. Her studio is in a great location. The entire experience was perfect. Thank you Budding Roses Photography!

Ashley was wonderful to work with. My newborn decided to put off her arrival for two weeks and Ashley was very accommodating, being able to fit me in last minute. The photos that she is able to capture really validates her interest in her clients and her job. She was so wonderful with my daughter Sydney that I plan on using Budding Roses Photography again in the future and i highly recommend them to others.

Ashley was a joy to work with, she immediately understood what I was looking for in a maternity shoot. Trying to incorporate two unpredictable dogs and a teenage and keep them engaged isn't the easiest thing to do. She was able to bring out the best in our family and in a natural setting like I wanted. She has been very flexible with scheduling too, which is a godsend since we have my stepson every other weekend. The pictures we chose are beautiful and will be cherished for years to come.

Ashley is amazing! The first session I did with her was a nursing session. She captured moments that I will cherish forever. They literally looked like pictures that were out of a magazine. The next session I had with her was a boudoir photo shoot. I was very hesitant, and almost didn't go because I just didn't picture myself being able to be "sexy". She proved me wrong and she gave me some of my confidence back that I've lost after having two kids. I am so grateful for her and the work she does!
