I approach photography as a form of witness. At times, the session becomes a ceremony – honouring celebration, transition, grief, devotion, love, or the simple act of being seen.
I leave space for this to arise organically. We may work with prayer, symbolism, offerings, movement, storytelling, or meaningful objects, allowing the experience to become a marker of remembrance, transformation, or becoming.
We work with the wisdom of the body rather than against it.
I will invite you to your edge, but never beyond your consent.

MYTHOS
vision / audacity / embodiment
INVESTMENT: £750
Through somatic facilitation, subconscious exploration and creative direction, we uncover the stories, desires, fears, archetypes and truths that live beneath the surface. Rather than creating imagery from strategy alone, we work with the deeper currents that shape how you move, express and reveal yourself.
MYTHOS is an alchemical process that begins long before the camera appears.
This process allows us to create imagery that feels magnetic because it is rooted in something real. The result is a visual language that communicates who you are, what you stand for and the deeper story your work is here to tell.
MYTHOS includes my mentorship package (valued at £280). This deeper layer of support helps your nervous system build the capacity to carry your truth into the world – not just access it in private.
Pre shoot:
– Somatic facilitation and subconscious exploration across 2 x 90 minute sessions
– Creative direction and concept development
– Bespoke moodboard and visual strategy
During:
– 3 hour creative direction and photography experience
– Multiple locations available
Post shoot:
– 45 fully edited, high-resolution images
– 15 stock imagery assets
– 20 cinematic HD video clips
– 90 minute somatic integration session

FAQ’s
Fill out the form on the link above or my contact page and I will be in touch to ensure we both share aligned visions and availability. Your shoot will be secured with a contract and deposit made to myself.
I require at least 2 weeks notice. In spring/summer this may not be possible as my books are often full so do try and enquire 4-6 weeks in advance.
Sometimes the body or face does not want to be pulled. Sometimes it just wants to be or play! If you bring yourself to the shoot with all your unique parts and give yourself permission to express them, then I assure you the process will complete itself.
The body often knows things before the mind does. Through somatic practices and guided inquiry, we explore the stories, desires and patterns shaping how you express yourself and how you are seen.
This is a creative and embodied process that helps us create imagery that feels authentic, powerful and uniquely yours.
If you would like to learn more about my approach to somatic work, embodiment and transformation, you can explore my mentorship page.
Most galleries are delivered within 2 weeks of your session.
As each gallery is edited with great care, there may occasionally be times when I require a little longer. If an extended turnaround time is expected, this will always be clearly communicated.
Absolutely. Most people arrive feeling nervous, awkward or unsure of what to do.
You do not need to know how to pose or perform. We move at your pace, working with the wisdom of the body rather than against it. My role is to help you feel safe enough to soften, express yourself and be seen.
Yes. A 50% deposit is required to secure your booking, with the remaining balance due before or on the day of your shoot.
For those who would prefer to spread the cost, bespoke payment plans may be available depending on how far in advance you book. Please enquire and we can find an arrangement that works for both of us
I primarily work across North West England, North Wales, the Lake District and the Peak District, returning often to the landscapes that inspire and shape my work.
If you are dreaming of a location further afield, I would love to hear from you. Travel may be possible depending on location, timing and availability. Please enquire for a personalised quote.
I work across the North West of England, North Wales, the Peak District and the Lake District, returning often to landscapes I know and love.
The location we choose will depend on the vision, feeling and experience we are creating together. This is something we explore during your planning call, where I will suggest locations that feel aligned with your shoot.
If you have a meaningful place in mind, I am always open to discussing this too.
Permission to share images is included within my contract, but this can always be discussed before booking.
If your session includes nudity, children or intimate content, I will always ask for your consent before sharing any images publicly or adding them to my portfolio.
There is an opportunity to purchase more photos when you view your proof gallery.
Weather can be unpredictable, and some of my favourite images have been created in mist, drizzle and dramatic skies.
I intentionally leave space within my calendar for weather contingencies and rescheduling where needed. However, this is usually only considered when conditions are particularly extreme or likely to significantly alter the vision for your shoot. Any decision will be made together with care and common sense.
CLIENT LOVE
“I can’t describe how important this photoshoot was for me, it was so healing and powerful. Thank you for allowing me to be vulnerable and thank you for reminding me of my power and beauty. Your magic is mirrored through your lens”
Polly
“Ash helps you feel comfortable expressing yourself and seeing the beauty that is within. Very timely with sending over the photo after the shoot. Very talented soul. Thank you so much.”
Jake
“Ash, thank you for capturing my rawest essence. Holding the safest container for me to express a deep part of myself. Honestly, I’ll treasure these pictures & that experience forever. What a journey. Thank you for sharing your powerful gifts and helping me remember.”
Carly
“My images have blown my mind to see. I have used them to find strength again. This is a reason to book Ash. The images can literally be resources and expanders because they create an emotion. She helps you embody who you are, and it’s magical.”
Lydia
“Ash brings a deep ceremonial feel to the whole process. As someone who has struggled with body image and body dysmorphia in the past, to be seen, celebrated and captured in my authenticity has been very healing for me. As I know it has for other women and friends who have had the pleasure of working with Ash.”
Nat
“I realised being shot by Ash healed a part of me I didn’t realise needed healing. For so long I took photos/modelled for the male gaze. Yesterday I moved with freedom. I moved for me and was held so much by the beautiful woman holding space for me. A truly beautiful & profound moment in my life.”
Bethan
“I’m blown away by Ash’s talent. A shoot that became a grief ceremony once we opened the space. I was so deeply held and I feel so grateful to have been witnessed in my grief”
