"Wow! I rarely write review and I rarely gush, but my daughter and I had the best photography experience with Rene/Ashton Photography today and I was inspired to share our good fortune in finding/working with Rene. My teenage daughter and I found Rene Ashton Photography through my daughter's acting studio. We used Rene for headshots for my daughter for acting purposes and headshots for me for my professional use as a psychologist. The entire experience including the resulting photographs are AMAZING. Rene was fun and easy to work with, friendly and professional with an easy going vibe. Rene was super knowledgeable, quickly assessed which outfits would work best, set up poses that felt comfortable and easy to be authentic and natural, and captured a variety of photographs that are flattering for my daughter who is using these looks for auditioning purposes, the range is phenomenal, something for every possible type of job. Thank you Rene!" Chaundra Prehara, LMFT

"My first time doing any kind of shoot...definitely stepped outside of my comfort zone.. I feel way more in touch with myself then I could have imagined I would... after you get this kind of endorphin release like, wow, what did I just do. You feel alive. you feel yourself. You feel sexy and it was a great experience." First time Boudoir Client, Julianna J.

"I can't say enough amazing things about working with René. She made the shoot fun and engaging for my 3 year old daughter. We got incredible results and my daughter still talks about it. She has a great eye and knows how to connect with kids in a playful way to capture their natural joy and beauty. Young or old, you will be thrilled with the results." Wendy Janes, Mom
