Ashley Warren Studios bio picture
  • Welcome to my blog!

    Hi and welcome to my blog! Glad you could stop by! This is where you can see my most recent sessions and posts about my own life, so look around and make yourself at home!

    I am a photographer in the Birmingham, AL area. My style is a blend of traditional and contemporary. Everyone loves a nice portrait, but it is the less guarded, more intimate images that stir our emotions. So, I try to capture both!

    When I am not shooting, I love to spend time with my family, travel, exercise and continue to learn more about photography. (It's a bit of an obsession!)

    Check out my website by clicking on the "portfolio" link. Also, please to leave me some blog love! I would love to hear what you think! Welcome and come back soon!

At Home Custom Photography – Mountain Brook, Alabama Photographer

I got to spend time with Miss C again the other day. She has grown SO much! I was so excited when her mom suggested we shoot at their home! I don’t usually do home shoots, (Not that I don’t enjoy them!) I just think people see them more as a “lifestyle” type session and that is not how I market myself. I REALLY do love doing home sessions and hope I get to do more in the future! We were still able to get those timeless portraits, but lots of fun, unique shots as well. We got to play with her dollhouse, jump on the bed, dance around in our tutu and show of her favorite shoes. (she has a thing for shoes, but what girl doesn’t? 🙂 ) Take a look at this adorable little thing!

Our Wild and Wacky Summer! – Alabama Photography

Man! We had a great (busy) summer this year! We had decided to do a “stay-cation” instead of the beach for a number of reasons. (oil included) It ended up being so much fun! I encourage you all to explore fun places right here in Alabama! Here are some of the fun activities that the Warren crew were up to!

The summer started with Michael competing in a 100 bike race. whew! He didn’t have a whole lot of time to train, but still made it 75 miles! I was so proud! There is no way I could do that!!! The boys has fun playing with the toys at the finish line. 😉

Trevor celebrated 7 year at the Lego Store. Fun for all!

We had some baby birds born in our back patio and watched them grow and finally fly away!

We got to go to the lake with friends and had the best time! The boys even got up on trainer skis!!!

Celebrated Memorial Day with LOTS of family. Just the way I like it. I think we topped out at over 20+ people. Cousins Conclave 2010, baby!

Headed up to the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville for the Star Wars exhibit. We are a family of nerds, so it was equally enjoyed by all! 🙂

Had a blast celebrating StopSMA’s win in the Pepsi Refresh Challenge! They won 250K twice to go towards research for a cure!

Discovered a rather LARGE hornet’s nest in our yard. Fortunately, Michael’s chem gear came in handy. I hunkered down in the car with my camera.

Spent the day at Alabama Adventure where both boys learned to turn flips underwater. Quite impressed!

Went camping at Lake Guntersville. Michael had gotten a trail-a-bike, so we could all ride together! We also took quite a few day trips from Guntersville, including: Cathedral Caverns, Little River Canyon and DeSoto State Park. The caverns were AWESOME!!

That’s wraps up our summer! It was fun and busy, and loved every minute of it!

75 plus miles later!

Happy 7th Birthday, Trevor!

I want it. 🙁

THE HORNET'S NEST IN OUR YARD!!!

Ok, so maybe we went overboard a little...

I love the smell of insecticide in the morning.

Fun times at the Stop SMA party. Love my girls!

Our new toy: a tag-a-long bike. The kids love it and now the whole family can ride together!

Ashley these are wonderful pictures – Its so awesome that you get to capture all these special moments with your family on camera (and that you share them with us!)

Ryan and Amanda – Jasper, Alabama Wedding Photography

I had the honor of photographing Amanda and Ryan’s happy day last Saturday. These guys are so much fun and so laid back! Two qualities I love! 🙂 They are so blessed with great friends and family too! I loved all the yellow touches she used even down to a yellow wedding cake. These two are high school sweethearts and you can just see that they love each other just as much or more than they did back then. All the best guys and thanks for letting me be a part of your beautiful day!

Beautiful!! Need I say more!

Amanda Elliott - August 16, 2010 - 7:46 pm

I love them all!! Thank you so much!!

Case – Birmingham, Alabama Infant Photographer

I had the honor of meeting Case and the two women that love him more than life itself! Case has had a lot of obstacles put in front of him at a young age. He was born premature and due to complications of being a premie, has Cerebral Palsy and is almost completely blind. Everyday he works hard to do things children much younger can do. At the time his mother booked his session, he was unable to hold his head up. BUT, within a few weeks, he was holding it up like a champ! It just warmed my heart that the sweet little guy put on the biggest grin when I talked to him! And talk about a smile! Just adorable!!! His “therapy dog” had to join in for a couple of shots. She was hysterical! Apparently during the course of our session, she decided she was bored of all the picture taking and curled up for a nap in my chest of blankets and rugs. 🙂 Thank you all for letting me photograph your sweet Case, he is amazing!

mmmmm, kisses. :-)

More kisses!

There is a seriously amazing bond between him and his "Nona."

can you tell?

LOVE this! haha!

Ashley, I LOVE these! Wonderful job…gave me chills. I know Case’s mommy will cherish them. Love the emotion you captured!

Got a lump in my throat just looking at these!! Amazing Amazing job!!

Couple of cuties! – Birmingham Alabama Newborn Photographer

I had a couple of sweet babes in the studio recently and man, they were both amazing! I couldn’t have asked for more from them. One sweet little boy and a darling little girl. Mr. J’s parents were wedding clients of mine, so it was double special to get to photograph him! It’s so great to get to photograph such wonderful little miracles! Baby fever anyone?? 🙂

Also trying out some new vintage editing techniques. Love to know what you all think…

one of my favorite pics this year.
