My name is Ashley Howsare, and my business is called Ashley Dawn Photography. I specialize in nature, pet portraits, and wedding photography.

My love for photography began in high school. I’m grateful that photography was offered as an elective, so my career path could begin. Then, I attended The Art Institute of Pittsburgh and earned a Bachelor of Science in Photography with honors. After graduating and having a few jobs, I decided to put my career on hold to start a family.

After being a stay at home mother for eight years, I decided to get back to me. Nature photography has been my passion since the beginning. Getting outside and being able to enjoy Mother Nature while photographing, is a dream. I can only hope my photographs bring as much joy to others as they do to me.
