Ashleigh's photographs transcend time. She has a keen photographic eye and artistic palette alongside journalistic approach and a knack for capturing captivating moments. She still shoots and hand processes film which allows her to enlarge optically in the darkroom. She uses her digital camera as a tool alongside film. A well rounded content professional in multiple mediums including photography, writing and video. Her interests started with portrait, music and anti-war march rally documentary photography.
Cannabis was added to her portfolio while freelancing for DOPE Magazine during a time of political shift and legalization. A 21st Century Wild West had her trekking around California and managing content for a growing magazine. She developed a love for photographing cannabis gardens and hash on the adventure.
Having left the career based magazine management job, she is now able to focus back on photography with a new perspective.
Her work has appeared in Nob Hill Gazette, SF Sonic, DOPE Magazine, Gallery EVB, the David Brower Center and SOMArts to name a few.
