Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot

Hello! and Congratulations on your engagement! I am based in Winston-Salem, NC but travel all over the East Coast and Ohio. I started my Photography journey in 2013 shadowing a couple weddings before jumping in on my own. March of 2020 I decided to focus fully on Weddings. Yes, I do seasonal family photos but Weddings are my absolute passion! My goal is to make your wedding day as stress free as possible capturing every angle and special moment for you to look back on. I treat every wedding as if it were my own and make sure to capture every emotion. As you look back on your photos you will be able to feel the memory and not just see it.

We cannot recommend Ashley enough. She made the entire process of planning through the day of our wedding worry free. We live within a couple hours of Ashley, but our busy schedules kept us from being able to meet before the wedding in person. She was the perfect choice for planning everything virtually. On the day of the wedding, she blended into the event seamlessly while taking charge to make sure she got the shots we had discussed, and each shot turned out perfect. We are thrilled with our choice and Ashley’s work and recommend everyone reach out to Ashley for your photography needs.

We can’t recommend Ashley enough! She was absolutely incredible, capturing both our engagement and wedding day photos. She meticulously prepared poses for us and truly dedicated her time to making our wedding day special, capturing all the precious moments beautifully.

Ashley was absolutely amazing in every step from our engagement to our wedding day. She made our engagement photos, bridal portraits, and wedding photos come to life. I could not have asked for a better photographer for our special day. Without Ashley, our wedding day would not have flowed as smoothly as it did.

I found Ashley through The Meadows at Walnut Cove. They had a few photographers to choose from and I decided I liked Ashley's style best. She was very easy to communicate with and responded to emails typically within a day. When I decided to book with her, she sent over a questionnaire and shot list to make sure no details were left out. My now husband, hates taking pictures but he enjoyed this just as much as I did. Ashley and her assistant Sam kept things smooth, got all the photos we wanted, and were very accommodating with an unexpected family change.

We hired Ashley and Sam to do our wedding photography and they absolutely did not disappoint. Ashley was flexible and kind from the beginning working with my budget and schedule, meeting virtual and in person. Not to mention the gorgeous photos, recommend hiring her for your big day 10/10! Thank you again Ashley!

Ashley was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was great with our pronouns (we both use they/them), and she was both open to our own poses, and great at suggesting poses for us. Fantastic!

Ashley has been amazing and the photos are gorgeous. We used her for our Engagement Session and loved her photos and energy so much that we hired her for the wedding. Ashley is professional, courteous, and responds in a timely manner. We can't wait to have her at our wedding next year.

Ashley helped us capture so many special moments on our wedding day in Raleigh, NC. She and her team were a lot of fun to work with, which made the day go very smoothly. Caring and creative, they brought a fun, in the moment photography style to capture the emotional moments. The pictures are amazing and their attention to detail came through in each shot. We couldn’t be happier with her work!

Ashley was very professional but also approachable and fun. She had many ideas for shots she wanted and listened to our ideas as well. The pictures came out phenomenally! And there were over 1000 taken. She was present but it never felt like she was intruding or in the way. I would book her again 100%! Her photos made my day so much more special and they turned out beyond my expectations. So thankful for her great job!
