Love Being Wild

A creative outdoor company

About

Love Being Wild is a modern lifestyle brand born from a deep love of nature, creativity, and spontaneous adventure. Every design, product, and idea we create is inspired by our experiences exploring the great outdoors and the wild places that recharge the soul.

Based in South Lake Tahoe, we draw daily inspiration from the mountains, lakes, and forests that surround us. Our designs and branding are deeply influenced by nature, the outdoors, and a nostalgic blend of vintage hippie and free spirited, natural vibes. Our mission is simple — to share the thrill of adventure and the beauty of the natural world through our art and craftsmanship.

Whether you’re chasing sunsets, getting lost on a trail, or just dreaming of the next getaway, we invite you to get wild with us and be part of the adventure that is Love Being Wild.

Our Founders

Ashley, Founder 

@lovebeingwildofficial and @photosandartbyashley

Ashley is the heart and brain behind our daily operations — a true multitasker who wears many hats with ease. She holds bachelor’s degrees in Recreation Administration and Public Health, as well as a Master’s in Business Administration. With experience across both for-profit and non-profit organizations, plus a background in small business ownership, Ashley brings a balanced mix of creativity and strategy to everything she does.

When she’s not managing the day-to-day, you’ll find her behind a camera, exploring the outdoors, painting, working out, cooking up something new, or hunting for hidden gems on her latest rockhounding adventure.

Tina, Founder

@dacraftyqueer

Tina is our in-house master maker — the creative force and guru behind all things crafty. A proud United States Air Force veteran, she brings dedication, precision, and imagination to everything she creates.

With experience leading scrapbook retreats, teaching craft classes, and fulfilling custom orders for a wide range of clients, Tina is as skilled with her hands as she is with her heart. Beyond her creative talents, she has a strong background in event management, nonprofit work, veteran advocacy, and promoting diversity, equality, and inclusion.

When she’s not in the studio, you’ll find her crafting, walking her dogs, baking something delicious, getting lost in a good book, or exploring new places.
