HELLO, I'M ASHLEY JACKLYN
PORTRAIT & FINE-ART PHOTOGRAPHER
 
 
I’m Jacklyn, a photographer and visual storyteller with a heart for emotion and quiet depth.
I work with light the way others work with words; gently, purposefully, always listening. Living in a chronically ill body has shaped how I see the world: slower, closer, with more reverence. My sessions can be slow and intuitive, or fast-paced and electric, but always deeply human.
Whether we’re creating portraits for healing, celebrating a milestone, for your small business, or simply the joy of being seen, my goal is always the same: to hold space for who you really are.
 
My editing process
 
 
 
 
 
I love being transparent about my editing process with my clients so you can decide if purchasing additional edited images is the right option for you.
Most of my sessions include professionally edited images, which cover:
✨ Subtle skin retouching (you’ll still look like yourself!)
✨ Blemish removal (for anything temporary, unless you request something permanent be removed)
✨ I don’t alter body shapes, but I will smooth and even out clothing for a polished look
✨ Teeth whitening and eye brightening
✨ Flyaway hair smoothing
✨ Background clean-up
✨ Color grading for that final, beautiful look
My priority is always to capture everything beautifully in-camera.
I have two side-by-side images that show the difference between an unretouched (left) and a retouched (right) image.
If you’d like to purchase additional images after our shoot, that’s always an option; just let me know.
I can’t wait to work with you!
