Everything about your child’s little-ness; the precious folds in their chunky baby thighs, the totter that happened right before they lost their balance in those days of early steps, the look they gave you when they knew they were being silly, the way you laughed and snuggled together. You can feel it, because it’s there, captured forever. 
Fieldstone Studio is a full-service, fine-art portrait studio serving mothers, babies, and families. Ashley specializes in creating artful, nostalgic images of you and your little ones, and allowing the nuances of your love to show through your images.
