Ashley DuChene Photography

Photographer

My name is Ashley DuChene (sounds like Du-Shane). I'm based in San Diego, CA but I also travel to Northern California, Oregon, Colorado, and Washington for photography sessions. I’m a second generation photographer with more than a decade of professional experience working with children & photography. I limit my photography to four sessions a week to make sure that I can devote enough attention to each client and my family. Enjoy the site, check out my behind-the-scenes video and then send me a message via the contact form so that we can start planning your session! Read more

    Ashley is seriously BEYOND amazing!!
    I was looking for a family photographer who captured natural & aesthetically beautiful photographs and she definitely did not disappoint! She was very easy to talk to, both over the phone and in person, and was flexible with our shoot when the weather did not cooperate. She had great styling tips and even better... our kids loved her! An added plus - she does an awesome Elmo voice ;) And where do I even begin with her photographs!?! Not only did she capture the true raw beauty of our family, but of the landscape as well. We now have a couple of photos hanging up throughout our house and memories that will forever hold dear to my heart. We hope to have many more memories captured in the future by the beautiful Ashley DuChene!

    This photo shoot couldn't of gone better!! Starting with the "pre-shoot guide" which gives you tips/outfit ideas for the most successful shoot possible- this made it seamless to figure out how to be prepared!! Ashley picked a beautiful location after seeing what things my family loved to do, and really just made it so personal and special!! I have 2 kids (4 & 7) and a puppy not to mention my hubby who hates taking pics-- Ashley made this such a fun photoshoot, had the kids and laughing and smiling the entire time with silly voices, etc! My husband even had a great time!! I definitely recommend her and will absolutely be calling her for future shoots!

    Ashley did a photo shoot of our last student recital and the results were fantastic! Our students' parents loved the professional quality images she took, and we as teachers were very happy with her professionalism and ability. She shot individual photos of each one of our performers (going out of her way to capture interesting angles) and was great at getting everyone to smile and cooperate when it came time for group photos. We highly recommend Ashley for your next photo shoot!

    Working with Ashley was fun, efficient, and professional. I used Ashley to take portraits of a profile feature in San Diego, CA, for an alumni magazine in San Antonio, TX. She made the long-distance relationship work! I have worked with 30+ contract photographers across the world, and by far and away Ashley had the most efficient, easiest-to-use contract, selection, and billing process. Her communication was clear and directions helpful, and her website was so easy to use.
    And, perhaps most important, her photos were stellar! She produced highly creative yet still 'portrait-style' photographs perfect for the magazine and its style.
    10/10, would recommend--thank you Ashley!

    Outstanding work! This was my first experience with doing family photos and I I did not know what to expect. We had such a great time doing our photos and Ashley was so professional and personable. She made us all feel so comfortable and had some great ideas. Not to mention our photos turned out beautiful!
    Thank you Ashley! Great job!
