Yoga + Boudoir? Yes, It’s a Thing.
Yoga and boudoir photography might seem unrelated, but they’re both practices in coming home to your body.
I’m Ashton, the photographer behind Feral Fern Boudoir, and I’m bringing my lens (and my deeply body-affirming approach) to Harrisonburg, Virginia. I specialize in photographing women and femmes in a way that celebrates softness, neurodivergence, chronic illness, curves, scars, stretch marks - all of it. My work is rooted in consent, transparency, and the belief that your body isn’t a problem to fix, it’s a story worth telling.
