Photography – Philadelphia

My name is Ashley Heckard and I am the Lioness Queen. I joined the Army in 2008 and obtained a certification in photography and communications. I then earned an Associate Degree in Digital Photography from The Art Institute of Pittsburgh with a focus on portraiture and editorial photography. My studio is currently located in the greater Philadelphia area. Roger Kingston said "A camera is a save button for the mind's eye.” Photographs embed our memories, serving as vivid visual reminders. I want to use my strengths to give my clients long-lasting beautiful memories. My artistry comes from a place of intuition and is fueled by an impetuous desire to become the people that I photograph. In my work I seek the unknown; I look for the light within the shadows, the stories that are not at first obvious, and the uncommon in the common. Allow me to see something unique in you, allow me to take your picture.
