to capture, even though there was a bit of rain on our wedding day. She is easy to work with, professional, personable, and all around a fabulous person. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone!

my husband feel super comfortable and relaxed. She put in long hours and a lot of energy on my wedding day to make sure she captured every special shot, and she was always willing to try anything I wanted to. She also provided me with an amazing amount of beautifully edited shots to choose from--I couldn't be happier! Thank you, Ashley!

nning and she was able to really capture some beautiful moments. Fast forward to our wedding and it far exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family continue to rave about her demeanor and ability to capture candid moments throughout the night. Our wedding photos are absolutely amazing (No surprise) and with our wedding package she was right there with us until the end. Words truly can’t express how grateful we are to have met her. We are excited for a long future with Ashley capturing all of the precious moments in our life. Thank you Ashley!

th even months after our wedding. She made taking pictures a fun event. I especially appreciated that Ashley took the time to learn the names of the people in our wedding party. Ashley took the time to learn what pictures were important to us and our families. She was also able to find the perfect balance between formal poses and more candid shots. She also took time to scout out the area around our venues to look for places for us to take pictures. We received our pictures a couple weeks later than expected but once we got them they were more than worth the wait. The pictures are absolutely gorgeous. Ashley did a great job of capturing our personalities and the atmosphere of the day. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

g and luckily we had a Friday wedding so was able to photograph it with only a couple month's notice! Ashley has a checklist/questionnaire that you fill out and write down which shots you really want to capture. This was helpful because there are so many posed shot combinations it can be easy to miss or forget some. From the moment Ashley arrived at the hair salon, she was laughing with us and she made us all feel very comfortable like she was a family friend. At our recpetion, I didnt feel like she was following my husband and I around all night, but that she was taking a lot of candids of our guests which we'll love. However, if there was something I wanted her to get a picture of, she was right behind me almost as if she knew I'd want the shot 15 seconds before I knew it. Ashley is a very genuine person and she will make you feel at ease. She not only has very unique and creative ideas, but you will enjoy her as a wedding guest as well! I can't wait to get our photos back and wish I could hang out with Ashley every day!

; we were so nervous for our engagement shoot and she just made the fears and nervousness melt away. We had so much fun running around to different locations. Ashley has a wonderful artistic vision that she knows how to run with but, her priority is to get the photo's YOU want. Our wedding day was so fun with Ashley; she literally started taking photos at 10am and didn't stop until the party was winding down! She made sure we got all of the photos we wanted and show want. Also, she knows how to get candid photos without "getting in the way" or making people pose. Her assistant did a fantastic job too. Ashley was amazing and we will be using her in the future (baby bump photos)!

l evaluation of their image quality and variety. Then, I interviewed a couple in person and over the phone. Ashley offered an excellent value and I loved her images-- and then immediately clicked with her over the phone. She was warm, funny, and social-- and I immediately knew she was the right fit. She understood my style and vision, she was intuitive when we were getting sick of posing, and really she was a pleasure to have mingling among our guests. And, her photographs turned out beautifully. She captured my vision and desire to catch the genuine moments, as opposed to the cliche kiss pics and shoe pics and "lets make a heart with our hands" pics that you see all over the place. She captured the spirit of our wedding, and I'm grateful. I highly recommend Ashley for people who have discerning taste, but don't want to spend the crazy $5-10k that some photogs are going for.

he city. She was able to take beautiful photographs of us throughout the entire day of our wedding.

end. Ashley was as excited by our style, vision and ideas as we were. After getting a feel of who we are and what we liked, she had amazing creative suggestions for us to try. On our wedding day Ashely was every where, any time a moment worth capturing happened, she was right there. I am the last one of four close friends who got married within the last two years. During the wedding each couple made a comment of how wonderful our photographer was, and they wished they had known her before they got married. Her work on her website speaks for her self, and her fun laid back style will add to your day. We hired a photographer and ended up with a friend! Please take my advice and make Ashely one of the Photographers you meet with. You will be happy you did.

k, but I think that's standard during busy wedding season.

with her work! She was wonderful to work with on our big day and was great with the kids (who aren't always so cooperative!) and she was fast enough that we didn't have to keep our guests waiting at the reception for us for more than about 30 minutes. She met with us on the Thursday before the wedding and that's all she needed to run with it. Great to work with!
