Siorna Ashby

Siorna is a professional portrait photographer specialising in Boudoir, Body, and Nude Photography. Her academic background in Ancient History (Durham University) and an MA in Cultural Heritage Studies (University College London) brings her a nuanced approach to capturing the human form; informed by classical art, cultural dynamics, and themes of empowerment.

Before focusing on photography full-time, Siorna worked at institutions like the British Museum, exploring themes of art, cultural heritage, and human expression. She then gained years of experience running her own boudoir studio, where she helped women embrace their authenticity and reconnect with themselves through photography.

In addition to her studio work, Siorna has spent the past four years teaching photography to military veterans as part of their rehabilitation. Through this work, she’s witnessed the profound power of storytelling and creativity in fostering confidence, healing, and self-expression.

“My goal as a tutor is to inspire photographers to create meaningful, respectful, and empowering imagery that tells a story and celebrates the beauty of the human experience.”
