“Parenting, like childhood, is a wild trip: some days are boring, moments are ridiculous or moments are hard, love abounds. Ashly captures all of this with an unflinching—and unjaded—eye. This book is a monument to her children, but it’s also a testament to the person she herself is and to the multiplicity of work she does twenty-four hours a day.”Lynn Melnick, Days + Years

Days + Years, an exhibition of photographs by Los Angeles artist Ashly Stohl at the Leica Store Soho, New York launches in conjunction with the release of Stohl’s second book, Days + Years, which takes from the common bit of parenting wisdom, “The days are long but the years are short.”

From after-school snacks to sibling squabbles to family vacations, here is the messy and bustling day-to-day, as seen through Stohl’s celebrated eye. Now, and with her usual fearlessness, warmth, and darkly wry humor, Stohl’s Days + Years broadens the focus to her entire family.
