IT ALL BEGAN WHEN THEY TOLD ME no.

TELLING YOUR STORY

People have told me I make too much noise since the moment I came into this world, but I wasn't born to blend in. Neither were you.

It’s more than just taking pictures—it’s about building confidence, capturing the essence of your brand, and creating a visual identity that resonates with your audience.
As a proud Arizona native, a wife, and a mother, I understand the power of storytelling and the importance of standing out in a crowded market. My journey into photography began when I saw firsthand how transformative the right image can be. 

I’ve had the honor of working with incredible businesses, from personal brands to established companies, helping them craft imagery that aligns with their vision and values

One of my most rewarding experiences was with a client launching her own coaching business. She shared that before our session, she struggled to feel confident in front of the camera, but after seeing her branding photos, she finally felt like the face of her business.
That’s the power of professional photography—it’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about empowering you to show up with confidence and connect with your audience on a deeper level.
My goal is to create an experience that feels natural, enjoyable, and true to your brand.
Let’s capture the essence of who you are and what you do—because your brand deserves to be seen.

I'm Ashley Trathen, Rise's FOUNDER.
