Hi, I'm Ava Cheadle.


I am a 23-year-old photographer from Dayton, Ohio with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts degree in Photography. I am based in Cleveland, Ohio, specializing in photo retouching and editorial-style photography.


I grew to find my passion in photography when I was accidentally put into a photography class in high school. After starting as a graphic design major in college, I found my calling in photography and quickly solidified my position as a Bachelor of Fine Arts photography student. I have even worked with the Victoria’s Secret PINK Campus Team as their photographer/videographer and as CoStar Group’s highest producing photography intern. My art has flourished through my diverse photography classes and great internships.


After working with different companies and peers through my photography career, I have found I work best when photographing people. I love the connection my camera can bring to my imagination, and I thrive off of creating the visions I dream up in my head. Not only that, but I have found great enjoyment from manipulating and retouching photographs. The ability to improve and strengthen a composition is something I love to explore. I treat my photography and my work as a whole as if they are a window into my imagination.
