Who’s Behind the Lens?

Shawn
I’m Shawn from Mankato, MN. The streets, the skies, the sidestreets of stories—they call to me.
38th Street Media was born not in a studio, but in the wild moments: the laugh between shots, the pothole made beautiful, the protest caught mid-chant.
This is what we do: chase the real, frame the strange, reveal the light.

Ashley
I’m Ashley from New Ulm, MN. I see the beauty in everyday light—the soft laugh, the wind-tossed hair, the way someone shifts when they finally feel like themselves.
Photography, for me, is comfort over polish, truth over perfection.
I keep chasing those real moments—with a camera in one hand and a conversation in the other.
