Hello,
I’m Ashley Frye.
Owner & lead creative at Ashley Frye Studio and the artist behind the work. While there are many hands I hire to help me in creating your invitations, my voice will be the one you intimetly work with.
I am a fine art artist first, and a love story teller second. You can find me often at my canvas, my favorite mediums are oil or watercolor. I live in the suburbs of Chicagoland with my wonderful husband, twins Evie & Grey, and our golden retriever BMO.
I’m a perfect fit for the fine art loving couple. For people who value kindness, advocavy & flexibility with a touch of structure. My invitations are experiential & I aim to leave a lasting impression on your guests.

“Ashley was such a dream to work with for our wedding invites and save-the-dates. She is so pleasant and her artwork is beautiful. She was able to take our nonconventional ideas and turn them into beautiful stationery. One of the most talked about things at our wedding was how perfect the invites were! HIGHLY recommended!!!!!!”
