Flashback Photo Co.

Hey, friends! For those who have been here a while, thanks for stickin’ around, and for anyone thats new - welcome to my little corner of the internet. I hope you enjoy cute photos of happy people, and talking about wine, pizza and all the dogs. If none of those things appeal to you....you may be in the wrong place.

On todays episode of Girl Behind the Lens, I'm answering some rapid fire questions below. Want to know something specific? Ask away...

✨Name: Ash Adams aka .adams
✨Business: Flashback Photo Co. (possible name change coming soon - what!)
✨Years in the field: 8 (plus 5 years of studying photography at Ryerson)
✨Current Netflix Binge: Friends (come on - its like comfort food for anxiety)
✨Hidden Talent: Arcade Basketball
✨Where do you find inspiration: Often from art, or from other creative fields like fashion, music or film. Sometimes from meeting someone new, or exploring a new place.
✨What did you want to be when you grew up? A pharmacist (🤣)
✨Pet peeve: mean people, loud chewers and my boyfriends chainsaw snoring
✨Weekend hobby: reading all the books and drinking all the wine
✨Guilty pleasure: Chick flicks, solo dance parties in my car, and eating pizza till I cant stand up

So, anything surprise you? Sound just like you? Make you wonder how a wanna-be pharmacist ended up as a wedding photographer? The journey was long and winding my friends - but thats a story for another day ✌🏼

Do you miss hugging your family? Hanging out with your friends? Or even just the ease of shaking hands when you meet someone new?

That loss of connection with friends and clients is definitely one of the things I’m missing the most. My heart breaks for all the brides and grooms having to reschedule their big days, for the mommas who can't get photos of their brand new born babies and for the families who cant celebrate these huge milestones together. I know one day, we'll be on the other side of this and hopefully we'll have learned to appreciate how truly special these moments are. In the words of the queen Jennifer van Son Photography "I believe we've been taking each other for granted, and when we return to the world, we will honour gatherings in a brand new way."

I cant wait for that day 💕

My best friend had her first baby a few weeks ago (yay)! But since we're smack dab in the middle of a pandemic it could be awhile before I actually get to meet him. So while the whole world is on lockdown - I'll be anxiously waiting to tickle those sweet little baby toes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
told me she was pregnant like....4 days after she found out herself (we're not good at the secret keeping) and I was counting down the days to his arrival ever since. In the coming weeks, please brace yourselves for an onslaught of the worlds cutest baby photos (when we're finally allowed out of the house, that is)
