Introduction: Hi! My name is Ashlyn McKibben and I am a South Miami photographer formally trained with a Bachelor's Degree in photography. I have over 10 years of experience, and this is my full time career. *PLEASE READ BIO* These are important details to consider upon booking. I specialize in weddings, events, maternity photos, newborn and family sessions, surprise engagements, performances, headshots/model portfolio images, commercial branding, corporate events, product photography, and more. With over a decade of experience I have honed in my style of direction, work flow and editing and I work with any type of client regardless of gender, sexuality, race, religion etc. I always make sure my clients feel comfortable in front of the camera and are having a good time, with professional direction throughout the shoot. I also prioritize capturing candid moments at events and during sessions to have a natural and documentary feel to the delivered galleries. Most of my clients end up being great friends and we get to move through big life milestones together ! Please note that I do not provide video services at the same time as photo services. Lighting, camera settings, gear, stabilizers and more differ from one service to another. I do have a videography partner and their availability can be requested upon hire of myself, but their availability is not guaranteed to match my own, and should be taken in consideration upon booking. Studio sessions are an additional cost if it is something you desire. I can shoot close up headshots on site anywhere because I have a full strobe and background set up. But shoots that are full body on infinity walls or colored backgrounds will be done at HGAB or The Warehouse Miami. Please take note of this cost in your research. For newborn photography that is more prop and studio oriented, I do not provide these items within shoots, as each client is different and has a different taste. (this including outfits, baskets, blankets, toys etc). My newborn photography is very documentary, within the home with the parents, in the nursery etc. Please take note of this. If you are desiring a newborn shoot of the studio style with the props mentioned it must be provided by the client. I strive to give each client a unique experience and a unique gallery, which would be lessened if I used the same props in every newborn session. I do not deliver raw photos unless it is for a brand or company with their own in house design teams with specifications for publications and marketing. Delivery of raw photos will require a small usage fee. I do not limit the image delivery in weddings, events or sessions. I simply clean the gallery of any duplicates, duds, blinking shots / anything I do not deem perfect, but you will end up with thorough coverage already edited. This cancels the back and forth after of deciding which images you want edited. In my opinion the package process creates a lot of hassle for the client, so I factor the full editing into the rate. I do not personally provide 3D renderings for real estate. Delivery time: Sessions: one week Short events (4 hours or less): one week Weddings / long events: 2-3 weeks 24 Hour edits are available for an additional fee. I would also be so happy to provide classes and tutoring sessions for beginner and hobbyist photographers as well please feel free to reach out about lessons via my website or Instagram. Feel free to reach out via my website to chat!

Ashlyn did a fantastic job with myself and fiancés proposal photos. She took a dynamic environment that she wasn’t familiar with and made magic! She helped plan out details that I myself had not even thought of before to create the element of surprise. Her professional input and drive behind her work shows in every picture that we received! Absolutely would recommend Ashlyn to anyone looking for any sort of portraits, proposal or engagement photos!

From our first phone call to the photo shoot reveal, working with Ashlynn was amazing. We hired her for a family photo shoot on the beach during a challenging week weather wise. Her flexibility and on time arrival allowed the photo shoot to happen in the only sliver of good weather we had. But it was her artistry, professionalism and fun attitude that made our experience so special and our photos truly beautiful. I feel like Ashlynn cares deeply about the quality of her work and offers great ideas to capture the essence of each person. Our family enjoyed the actual experience and, after seeing our photos, we are so thrilled to have such lovely keepsakes. We will treasure them. Ashlynn is exceptional. She makes it simple to work with her, she keeps her word and follows through on her promises. We feel we have found our family photographer and hope to use this talented pro for many more special moments. Highly recommend.

Ashlyn was terrific!! She even did our family photo session on the morning of Christmas Eve. The session was organized, quick, and she took the lead on each picture but was great listening to what we wanted and who we are as a family!! The pictures turned out beautiful! I would fully recommend Ashlyn as your photographer!! 10/10!

Ashlyn was on top of it from start to finish. She immediately responded with a quote, followed up in the weeks leading to the photo shoot and was on scene as expected. She photographed our large family group together and then did fun kid shots, along with family, siblings and grandparent photos. The end product was prompt and perfect. Ashlyn took creative pictures of individual family groups and even captured a group shot of children ages 3-15 without missing a face. We are so thankful she was our photographer to capture our family memories. Hire her!!!
