🕊 Honoring a Mother’s Love | Giving Back for Her Little Boy 🕊
Our hearts are incredibly heavy as we share this news.
One of our sweet clients, Ashley Brown, who was scheduled for a “Mommy & Me” and 2nd birthday session this coming Monday, tragically lost her life — along with her father — in a heartbreaking act of violence. Her little boy turns 2 this August.
We’ve had the honor of photographing this beautiful family twice before, and Ashley was always the kindest soul — full of warmth, love, and joy. She absolutely adored her little boy, and it showed.
To honor her memory and support her son, we’re organizing a Fundraiser Photoshoot. This special event is a way to celebrate the love she had for her baby boy and help provide him with care, comfort, and joy as he grows.
📸 Fundraiser Photoshoot Details:
📅 August 24th
🕓 Starting at 4 PM and continuing until we’ve photographed everyone
📍 Lake Shawnee Arboretum
👣 Walk-up only, but please send us a message if you plan to attend so we can prepare.
🎁 We will be accepting:
• New, wrapped or unwrapped birthday gifts (age 2–3)
• Monetary donations (all proceeds go directly toward his care and future)
• Cards or letters with words of love and encouragement
• He loves dinosaurs, animals, Spiderman, cars and books.
• Giftcards are also appreciated so they can buy clothing later as needed.
Ashley’s memory deserves to be honored, and her little boy deserves to grow up surrounded by the same love she gave him so deeply. Let’s come together to make sure he feels that love from all around.
With love and gratitude,
