Wheaty Ash is Ashley Earles-Bennett.
I am a Unit Publicist for Film/TV and a Member of The International Cinematographers Guild, IATSE Local 600. This website contains photography that I have taken and enjoy as well as personal art and graphic design. Check out my professional work.
Film and Television Work
As a unit publicist with film and TV, having the opportunity to work with individuals that are passionate about their craft in all aspects of production has allowed me to highlight creative facets in front of the camera as well as behind the scenes. I have more than 15 years of experience in marketing, social media communications, and public relations.

Education
I graduated with honors from the University of North Florida with a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications focusing on Advertising and Photography (as well as additional studies in Journalism) and continued my studies through UNF’s Post Baccalaureate Program in English/Literature. In 2008 I was awarded a UNF Grad Program Scholarship for “Excellent Scholarship” and received the same award in 2009. I earned a Master of Arts Degree in English (as a member of Sigma Tau Delta – International English Honor Society) in 2010. In 2015 I was accepted into, and attended, Yale University’s Writer’s Conference where I did workshops with American novelist, screenwriter, professor, playwright, and essayist Trey Ellis among others.
