Hi, I am Ansley Shaye Testone.

First, lets get to know me a little better...

I am a wife to Will and a mother to our son, Ellis Charles born February 5th 2024. As I update this page he is just 1 day shy of a month old and let me tell you, WE ARE IN LOVE WITH THIS LITTLE BOY. He is the light of our world and I couldn't be any more proud than I am to be his mom.

I love seeing other parts of America that are unlike anything I have ever seen before, the big trips that I have been on were to Arizona, Texas, Wyoming, Montana and Colorado, I think Utah might be next on my list, though. My husband & I really only started to truly travel like this starting in 2021 and we have been out to Montana/Wyoming 3 times... so we are obviously big fans!

Another big part of our life is our Boykin Spaniel, Winston, who really keeps us on our toes. We brought him home at the start of 2019 and he hasn't slowed down much since then and if you are ever around my husband and I, we will probably talk about him wayyyy too much.

Get to know what I am like at sessions...

I like to build a relationship with my clients so I can help them feel comfortable on the other side of the camera and deliver them portraits in the form of art that they can truly cherish for a lifetime and their families can cherish long after that. I might ask you to do some silly things with prompts I give you but when you get to see your gallery or I give you a peep at the back of my camera then you will understand why I gave you those prompts. I want you to have movement and emotion in your portraits. Of course we will always do your cute standard smiling photos but I love to mix in emotion and what most call "candid" shots.

I rarely am on the other side of the camera, but here are some shots from some vacations we have taken with friends, oh and a few with my husband and little dog. Annnnd as you can tell, I really love going to the mountains.
