Why am I so passionate about photographing expectant mommas and newborns? Because I myself struggled to become a mother. My journey to motherhood was long and difficult and now that I have been through it, I have a passion of preserving these memories for other mothers. To me, there is nothing more beautiful than a mothers glow and her love for her newborn baby.
As a retired dancer from Disney and Universal Studios I use my skills to help pose mothers in the most flattering angles. You may not feel your best self but I am here to prove you wrong. I love all things dance, musical theater and art and you can normally find me dancing around with my twin daughters everywhere we go.
I'm Ansley
am so excited you're here. My photography journey began in high school when I became obsessed with photographing ballet dancers. In 2016 my love for photography was rekindled after my honeymoon in New Zealand and Australia photographing the beautiful landscapes. Of course now when I'm not taking photos of clients, my twins are my best models!

A snapshot into my life
My twins have been my greatest joy. My smaller daughter had epilepsy starting at 4 months old, and almost lost her life to it. At 16 months a brain tumor was found and she was rushed into brain surgery. We as a family have been through a lot since her seizures started and we are so thankful for her recovery and seizure freedom. It has been an amazing year since her surgery to watch her finally be a child. I will talk your ear off about Sydneys story and my sweet girls if you want to hear more about it.
The Twins
Traveling has always been a joy of mine. I've been to 6 different continents and traveled many places as a dancer on a cruise ship. My top have been New Zealand, Australia, Thailand, Morocco, Spain, France, and honestly anywhere in Europe. I hope to travel again soon! You can always check out my travels on my personal instagram account here.
Traveling
From the very first time I spoke with Ansley I knew this was going to be a great experience. She did our maternity pictures and will do newborn pictures when our baby arrives. She made me feel so comfortable, we laughed and had a blast during the entire shoot. Our maternity pictures are absolutely magical. The entire experience was dreamy, from the hair and make up, to picking our pictures out. Choose Van Epps photography! You will not be disappointed!

You Deserve the best
When it comes to your memories, don't rely on technology. In this day and age digitals are wonderful for sharing on social media, but having those images printed and on your walls and displayed in beautiful albums will withstand the true test of time. Don't lose your images, display them.
