finally relaxing into the amount of alone time that i really need. i used to feel guilty, or like there was something wrong with me for wanting large parts of my day to be experienced completely solo. but lately i've been giving myself permission to do just that, and i can feel my higher, inner Liv rejoicing 🙇🏼‍♀️ we like it here! meanwhile, things just keep getting trippier and trippier 👁✨👁 🌈🔮☄️✨💡🌀⚖️ 🚀

👁🌈👁 human-ing is.... A LOT. wherever you're at today; in bed, laughing, creating, sick, smiling, depressed, connected, slothy, overwhelmed, in love, heartbroken, vengeful, organized, broke, confident, powerful, inspired, behind, overjoyed, crumbling... you're freakin' doing GREAT.

that place in you // that place in me. home is in here. on the blog 👁🌛✨🌜👁

Amy was one of my first clients EVER. She began her interior design business right around the time I was starting Olivia Ashton Photography. In the past five years we've consistently worked together as a photo/design team on countless projects, I've photographed (and fallen in love with) her growing family year after year, nannied her children, shared our hearts, and grown together as artists and dear friends.

Amy consistently blows me away with her timeless style, creativity, drive, humor, and endless love for the people she creates for.

Lately she's been getting heaps of public recognition (so freaking deserved) -- most recently being featured on School House Electrics "Designer Spotlight." If you'd like to check it out, the link is in Amy's bio:) @schoolhouse @amycarnahandesign 💕 LOVE YOU AMY! 💕

I get extra teary-eyed when friends hire me 😭😭😭💛🙏🏽 so much fun creating personal imagery for the upcoming revamp of @bethanyjbauman's design website -- you're a freakin' light, girl! and a badass ladybossin' entrepreneur 💪🏽💥 #oliviaashtonphotography

👁⌛️👁
Where did yesterday GO?
Where does last year now reside?
Where is the life that occurred an hour ago?
Where does it go?

Things are,
and then they aren't.
Time is
And then is
And then is.

Admit something:
Everyone you see, you say to them, “Love me.”
Of course you do not do this out loud, otherwise someone would call the cops.
Still though, think about this, this great pull in us to connect.

Why not become the one who lives with a full moon in each eye that is always saying,
With that sweet moon language, what every other eye in
this world is dying to hear?
-Hafiz

Women! Femme identifying honeys!💛💛 I'll be offering sacred self-love portrait session at a retreat in Costa Rica November 18th-23rd -- "For Women Who Want To Change The World." This is a six day immersion into the call of the wild feminine - rising to action, creating with passion and living our dreams fully. If you feel so called, come join us in the jungle 👽🌜👁🌿 All info and details are linked in @sacredfemalespace's bio 💛 I initially connected with Hannah at @envisionfestival in Costa Rica this February, where she was holding space for ceremony and Red Tent lectures/work shops. I attended every single one she lead, and was blown away by her wisdom, knowledge, compassion, radiance, curiosity and ability to facilitate deep, meaningful conversation and connection
around our own innate feminine wisdom. I am beyond excited to reunite in Costa Rica for this retreat, and it would be so extra special to have some of you babes there too 💛 Please feel free to reach out to Hannah or I directly with any questions! I love you! x (Incredible artwork by @hanakomimiko)

I often find myself thinking something along the lines of, "I really feel like I'm on the brink of something big!" or, "I feel like I'm right on the edge of a big shift in my life." But I've recently come to realize that the experience of being human, is, in and of itself a constant unfolding, awakening, a perpetual state of "becoming." That's to say, I feel like I'm on the brink of something big, because I am, in every moment, on the brink of my own life. At the pinnacle of my existence, the furthest and most evolved I've ever been. Right now, and now, and now, and now. In every moment we all are. We're teetering here, on the edge of The Mystery and The Unknown, both on the brink of, and fully engulfed in something BIG. 👁✨👁
