We honestly can’t say enough great things about Ashley!
From our very first conversation, we knew we were in good hands. She took the time to really get to know us, understand the...
style we were looking for, and make sure she knew exactly which moments and people were most important to us. By the time our wedding weekend arrived, it felt like she already knew our family and friends.
She photographed our welcome dinner the night before the wedding, and some of our favorite photos from the entire weekend came from that evening. She captured so many genuine moments, laughs, hugs, and conversations that we didn’t even realize were happening. Looking through those photos brought us right back to the weekend.
On the wedding day itself, Ashley was everything you hope your photographer will be. She somehow managed to keep everyone organized and on schedule without ever feeling bossy or rushed. Getting large groups of family and friends together isn’t easy, but she handled it with kindness, confidence, and a great sense of humor. She kept everyone smiling and made the entire experience fun.
The photos themselves absolutely blew us away. Ashley has an incredible artistic eye and a real talent for using light and color in a way that makes every image feel vibrant and timeless. Every time we look through our gallery, we notice another beautiful detail that she captured.
One of the things that meant the most to us was that just a few days after the wedding, she surprised us by sending a collection of beautiful photos she had taken on her phone. It was such a thoughtful gesture and gave us something to relive while we waited for the full gallery.
More than anything, Ashley gave us complete peace of mind throughout the entire process. We never had to worry because we trusted her completely, and she delivered beyond anything we could have hoped for. She is incredibly talented, professional, organized, and genuinely fun to be around.
If you’re considering Ashley as your wedding photographer, don’t hesitate. We are so grateful she was part of our wedding weekend, and we’ll cherish these photos for the rest of our lives!
I dont have enough good words for Ashley. From the first moment of our initial consultation I knew Ashley was going to be the perfect photographer for our wedding day.
We spent t...
he first 30 minutes just chatting so she could understand what my vision for the day was and what was the most important to capture. I wanted a few very specific things (that included leaving our venue for 45 minutes) and Ashley was not just on board but had suggestions to make them better.
After this she provided clear pricing tiers and I felt like I had so much autonomy in what I was paying for.
Throughout the planning process Ashley was a great resource and she pivoted many times tk make sure we had everything captured before the ceremony started.
Then came the wedding weekend. And Ashley outperformed even what I was expecting. We opted to have her at our rehearsal dinner and I cannot recommend this enough. Having her getting to know the key players in our wedding day was so helpful. All of our family and friends talked about how much they loved getting to talk with her and get nice family portraits during this time.
I have attached a few photos from our rehearsal dinner (which we got back about 2 weeks after the event with being notified that it would only be a few more weeks for all the wedding photos. I will update once I have some of those) as well as a photo of the poloraid book we received day of ( GET THIS getting to have this to look at the next day was one of our favorite memories of the weekend) as well as some photos she had taken on her phone that I received right away.
Ashley truly is a world class photographer and if I could do it all over again I would go with her in a heartbeat.
Ashley was an absolute dream to work with. She captured every moment of our wedding with such care and talent, and her photos are simply stunning. One moment that stands out was du...
ring the mother-son dance—I broke down in tears, and Ashley came over, gave me a quiet, comforting hug, and still managed to capture the moment so beautifully. She wasn’t just our photographer; she was a calming presence throughout the day. We’re forever grateful and couldn’t recommend her more highly!
Ashley is incredible. We hired her for our wedding and were blown away with the photos. She gave great direction so we didn't have to think twice about posing or getting all the sh...
ots we wanted. I trust her fully and the outcome was more than we hoped for.
Not only is her work amazing, she was so fun and helpful. Our friends and family were genuinely smiling and it came through in her photos.
Ashley was PHENOMENAL for our elopement in April. Since we were eloping the photographs were extra important to send to family and friends and Ashley made everything very simple, s...
tress-free and fun. We were worried about harsh afternoon shadows in Palm Springs - it was no problem at all for her! Our brief was "rockstar" - so many of the shots could be an album cover lol!! She was open to moving around to different locations and we got every shot we could have asked for and more. She also took some really fantastic candids and videos on her phone so we could share them right away with our surprise elopement announcement. The finals also arrived super quick! All round a 10/10 experience, thanks so much Ashley!
Ashley went above and beyond simply recording moments for us at our wedding as a photographer. For lack of a better description, Ashley served as our director of photography, advis...
ing us where to stand, how to pose, what angles would look the best, and what backdrops would look the best. I'm not sure I can praise Ashely enough! Her eye for the best lighting and instincts for capturing the perfect moment (in the perfect framing) are beyond my ability to express. The result was pictures that are somehow more beautiful than we remember.
Ashley was delightful, professional, and truly brought artistic flair to her role as our wedding photographer. I would recommend Ashley for any event, and sincerely hope to have an opportunity to use her services again in the future.
Ashley gave us beautiful memories for our wedding that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I don’t think there’s a price to put on that. If you’re getting married, you wan...
t Ashley behind the lens, she will capture not only the look, but the feel of the day too.
From the first call with her she was professional and even joked that she has a type A personality. She took time to get to know us and our story. She asked us about what kinds of colors we were drawn to most. We felt in such good hands and Ashley was the obvious choice and we couldn’t be happier. Her communication over the next eight months between our engagement photos and the wedding planning, the day of the wedding, to getting the photos was responsive, punctual, and thorough. There are so many things to be worried about putting together a wedding, Ashley was never one. And the photos speak for themselves. They are marvelous.
Her personality is magnetic and fun. She really knows how to bring the real you out onto film, even if you feel a little camera shy, or you suddenly forget where to put your hands when you’re posing. We spent a whole day with her on our engagement shoot and it felt like hanging out with a friend. She made us laugh and made us feel relaxed, and this made us feel comfortable for our wedding day. She and her second photographer Lewis were kind and empathetic to the huge pressures of the day, but they were also incredibly detail oriented. They made it through our family photos with time to spare.
Ashley has an incredible gift as a photographer, she is a true artist, and we are so happy that she was available for our wedding.
Our wedding photos were ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! We hired Ashley for our Palm Desert wedding in May, and it was our best decision. She was so fun, entergetic, and passionate about what...
she does and it truly showed in our photos.She was everywhere at the wedding and captured everything we wanted plus more. At one point she even laid on the floor to get the best angles. She captured the day perfectly. From the first consultation, to the day of, she communicated everything to a T and genuinely got to know us as a couple. We took photos on the golf course captured the landscape and us beautifully! Every photo was just incredible. I would highly highly recommend booking her. 10/10 would book again.
Ashley is an absolute gem! She is not just a photographer, but a true wedding professional and provides so much more value beyond the camera. We hired her for the wedding and engag...
ement shoot and it really felt like she was with us the entire way through the wedding planning journey. She was professional and organized in her planning, and during the photos she had a really calm aura about her that helped us relax a lot in front of the camera. We also got all of our photos on schedule after the wedding and are so excited about how they came out, especially the scenic shots! We had rain on our wedding day and the skies were overcast during photos and the pictures still came out wonderful. Thank you for everything, Ashley!
Ashley was an absolute joy to work with! From our first consultation call to the wedding day, she was just so wonderful and was genuinely excited about her work. She had GREAT comm...
unication throughout and when we met her in person, we were instantly at ease. It was like we had been friends for years! My husband and I both had specific insecurities in front of the camera, and Ashley helped us feel incredibly comfortable. I also happened to get makeup on my collar and, even though it wasn't her job, she helped fix it without even asking her. The photos from our wedding day turned out even better than we could have imagined. I can't stop looking at them, they're so beautiful! We are so glad to have found Ashley and would recommend her for any event.
Wow, simply, wow! I cannot believe how lucky we got by having Ashley as our photographer for this very important day. She is a gem and would love to have her capture all of our big...
life moments. She is funny, professional, timely and her photographs are a work of art. When I share images with family and friends, they immediately want to know who we hired.
When thinking of a typical wedding photographer, I envision someone making their presence known and panicking to capture the right moments or making you reenact something to get the right shot. Not Ashley, she is as cool as a cucumber, quiet as a mouse and quick as a fox.
She is also known for dancing with the crowd and taking selfies with the bride.
Thank you Ashley!
We hired Ashley for our Palm Springs wedding and have absolutely no regrets. We were able to meet her a year before our wedding for an engagement shoot and she was wonderful from t...
he beginning. I am not comfortable in front of the camera but she is so friendly and professional that it takes most of those feelings away. She was very helpful and responsive in the year leading up to our wedding. She also came to our Airbnb to take photos of a pool party we had the day before our wedding which was great and resulted in amazing photos for us and our guests.
For the wedding day, she was punctual and so so helpful. She did a great job of bouncing back and forth between my husband and I before our first look and helped us stay on time all day. During the wedding you could tell she was getting some great photos, but also having fun while doing it. I had multiple guests after the wedding say they were impressed with her and that she almost blended in throughout the day, making people feel comfortable.
Our wedding photos turned out amazing. We absolutely love what Ashley did with them and are so happy we had her capture our special day.
Ashley is the BEST in the business! We cannot thank her enough for how seamless she made our whole day! We loved working with her - not just for her amazing photography talents, bu...
t for everything she did for us beyond the camera. She kept us on time (early, even), brought contagious energy throughout the day, and paid attention to even the smallest of details. Her work speaks for itself too! Her skill and wealth of knowledge kept us on track and allowed us to just enjoy the whole experience. Thank you!
Ashley was such a bright spot on my wedding day. I had contracted her in 2020 and it was another two years before we were actually able to have our wedding due to Covid. However, w...
ow did she deliver. Not only was she incredibly positive and efficient on my wedding day, Her work is also incredibly stunning. Our day of coordinator also mentioned how amazing she was with other vendors - trust me, you definitely want a photographer that leaves ego at home and plays nice with the entire vendor team! It makes the day go so much better. Not only that, Ashley delivered our photos to us weeks early which was a true treat! I would hire Ashley again in a heartbeat and as a wedding professional I certainly would refer her to my client with full confidence that she will wow the as well! Thanks again Ashley!
This review is long overdue, but extremely necessary as we could not have been happier with our choice to select Ashley as our wedding photographer. Not only was Ashley responsive,...
kind, and professional from the very beginning of the process with her communication, but she was even more amazing in person! Our wedding was in July of 2022, and we are still receiving compliments on how wonderful our photos came out... and the best part is that Ashley is not only talented, but also so genuine, warm, and fun! She made us feel so comfortable while we were shooting, and she sincerely cared about our vision, our preferences, and our comfort level with everything. Ashley is the complete package... if you are looking for a smooth experience from start to finish including beautiful pictures to forever remember your special day, then you should absolutely connect with Ashley!
Ashley was unbelievable. I can’t imagine having a better experience with a vendor - not to mention one who traveled to Sonoma for our wedding. Not only did she go above and beyond ...
to make our day perfect, she made every person in the wedding comfortable. She was on time, detail oriented, and also just a joy to have around all day. She was so fun but still managed to help keep us on time and allowed us to really enjoy our day. In addition, she was so easy to communicate with throughout the entire process and helped us with more than just photography. We received a sneak peek literally the next day and the balance of our photos ahead of schedule and the photos turned out so so beautifully. We had the absolute best experience with Ashley and would recommend her to any bride.
I'm so happy we went with Ashley! I don't take many pictures of myself because I never like the way I look. When we got the pictures back from Ashley - OMG! They were STUNNING! Fr...
iends said we looked like models from a magazine - really! She's also so sweet and a joy to work with. Her price is also very reasonable (I checked a lot of others before hiring her). If you need a photographer - hire Ashley! Also worth mentioning, we were in a bit of a pickle before we hired her. We live on the east coast, and were visiting Palm Springs for vacation. Our Wedding photographers couldn't make it. We wanted to have our pictures taken while we were away and only had maybe 2 weeks to figure something out. I reached out to Ashley and got a response almost immediately and she was very accommodating for our short time frame!
Ashley is by far one of the BEST wedding professionals we worked with throughout our wedding. Our first photo session was in Palm Springs during our bachelor party weekend. She met...
up with us downtown for an engagement shoot and then came over to our resort to shoot our closest friends enjoying time by the pool. On the day of our wedding, Ashley was a ray of sunshine that not only kept us calm but allowed us to feel truly comfortable and be in the moment without the worry of having a camera in our face. Ashley was a clear leader at our wedding and it was so cool to see her be in her element. Ashley is a true professional. Her photos are fabulous yet timeless and her creative eye is 100% unmatched. Every time she showed us a fresh photo we were constantly floored and impressed. Not to mention, her personality is infectious and she makes you feel like a friend you’ve known all your life. We couldn’t be any happier with our experience with Ashley. Would we recommend her to you to capture your wedding? YESSSS!!!!!
The Ashley LaPrade Photography team went above and beyond for us. Ashley is such a kind hearted professional and she knew how to direct us well. The photos are incredible- I can't ...
wait to show them to the world!
Thank you Ashley and team.
10000/10! She’s an absolute amazing photographer! She makes things super comfortable and fun for us people who don’t know how to pose! We loved all the pictures she took from the e...
ngagement photos to me walking down the isle. She was also a huge help when it came to the wedding day. We have so many great pictures that capture the best day of my life!
Ashley was so fabulous from start to finish for our wedding. She knew what we wanted and executed perfectly. We could not be more thrilled with how our pictures turned out! I would...
recommend her 10 times out of 10. And as a bonus, she stayed and danced with us at the end of the night. We love her and had the best experience with her as our photographer!
One phrase comes to mind when looking back at the photos and the day of the wedding. ATTENTION TO DETAIL! Ashley came prepared with cold towels (Palms Springs Heat), beauty kits fo...
r both bride and groom, shoe shined all the men’s (beyond bridal party) shoes for up close photos, and even had time to let a little loose to dance, cheers, and have dessert with us. Ashley and her co-photographer, Ed, commanded the entire timeline and knew, down to the minute, what needed to happen. She came recommended from the Avalon Hotel in Palm Springs, CA, and we are so thankful for that and her having the availability to stay with us through our reschedules from 2020 until our celebration date in 2021. Her words of encouragement and just allowing my husband and I to be natural was the most heart warming part. She allowed us to live in the moment and enjoy the day of events.
The photo-package we chose of hers was the engagement shoot, entire wedding day, and memorable photo box with 100-prints. We decided to forego the engagement photoshoot, so Ashley worked with us to instead shoot our welcome party reception. It was so nice to see all our guests connecting prior to the day of festivities, in more casual clothing, from the black tie attire our wedding was.
We would choose Ashley any day for any captured moment we would want, she brings life to the shoot and you can see it within your photos. I highly encourage anyone to follow her on social media, as you will see she is one of the most hardworking photographers, mother, and wife.
We cannot recommend Ashley enough!
We hired Ashley to photograph our intimate wedding in the desert and we could not be happier. She's so incredibly talented and the most kind. ...
From the moment we connected on the phone, to the weeks leading up to our wedding, Ashley went out of her way to connect with us to make sure everything was covered: schedule, timing of the sunset, shot lists, and so many other things we would have never thought of. At the end of the night, there wasn't a single photo we wished we had taken because we were confident that Ashley captured it all. Every day of detail you can imagine and our dream shots. One where she even got in the middle of the street to make it happen! I can't say all photographers would do this.
Ashley made us feel so comfortable and taking pictures so fun! An hour had passed during formal portraits and we honestly had no idea. My husband and I truly felt like this time was ours and we're so thankful Ashley made it that way.
We are in love with our pictures and have enjoyed reliving the most special day of our lives!
Brides & Grooms, BOOK ASHLEY NOW! I cannot say enough great things about her, where do I even start? Ashley did our engagement photos (May 2021) and wedding photos (November 2021)....
She was super helpful throughout the entire process. Her communication was what really stood out to me! If I had any questions on what to wear for engagement photos, what to expect, or anything, she replied so quickly. She really has done it all, so she has the answers to everything, including an in depth guides of what to anticipate! It was super helpful!
Obviously, if you have seen her work, it speaks for itself! Every single photo came out beautifully! She even let us browse another couple's photos of the same venue we booked. We just received our photos back and I can't believe how perfect they are. We had a destination wedding in Palm Springs (Indian Wells), and all of our Midwest guests loved the scenery, but everyone had the same comment; photos just don't do it justice. WELL ASHLEY'S DO! She has such a talent and I can't stop obsessing over our photos.
The day of, Ashley came so prepared! She had everything I never knew I needed for the day; from command hooks to photograph my dress, to heel protectors to help me walk down the aisle. If you can think of it, I bet she had it!
Ashley and her team were so amazing, our Videographer made a comment to me saying how the photography team is the best, organized, and punctual team they have ever worked with. To get a compliment like that from another wedding professional, I think that speaks great volumes on how Ashley runs things! I sent her a photography list of my must have photos, and she had it up on her phone and followed it all day! I'm telling you, I would trust her with my life at this point.
We cannot recommend Ashley enough!!! She is the best of the BEST. Thank you Ashley!
Ashley LaPrade Photography captured all of our wedding bests moments and I couldn't be any happier with my pictures.. im so in love with them! Ashley has been amazing with communic...
ation! The photographers that captured my event were awsome! Super helpful! From helping my mom and i buttoning up my dress.. to having a positive attitude the whole time.. definitely recommend! Very great service
I cannot say good enough things about Ashley and our experience with her. She truly is the best at what she does, but she also offers so much more. Not only are we obsessed with ou...
r photos, but we are so thankful to her for how she managed our wedding day. Unfortunately, our planner fell short, and Ashley stepped in and took control of the situation. She kept us on schedule, and she was able to capture all of the photos we wanted and then some. We are so glad we chose Ashley for our special day. She travels, as well, so even if you are not getting married in Vegas or Palm Springs you can hire her. It will be the best decision you make for our wedding.
Ashley is aaaamazing! It hasn't been easy being a COVID bride and she made it so simple for us right from the start when we told her about changing from an east coast wedding to a ...
west coast wedding. She has great tips and a fun, energetic, professional energy. One of the best tips she gave was doing a first look. The day of the wedding ran so smoothly. Everyone was so happy they were able to get their family group shots they wanted and we enjoyed the rest of the night dancing. My dad told me Ashley was dancing and smiling the whole night, it's says a lot when someone really loves what they do and you can feel it!
Ashley & her team were FABULOUS!!!!! She did our engagement and wedding photos!! We picked pretty much the hottest day to do our engagement session in Palm Springs! She was such a ...
champ and made us feel amazing, even though it was 120 degrees!!! Our photos came back superb!!!
On our wedding day was even more superb! Everything was quick fast and turned out BEAUTIFUL. I honestly was dreading the photo aspect but she made it wonderful!! It was August in Palm Springs, so it was warm. She made sure I was cool & hydrated! We got our wedding photos back less than a month later and they were PURE MAGIC!!!!!!!! Every single photo we love!!!
We cannot recommend Ashley enough!!!! Thanks girl :)
We had such an amazing experience with Ashley and couldn't recommend her more!! Our photos came out so beautiful. We had very high winds the day of our wedding and Ashley still cap...
tured each moment and made it look perfect. She has such a fun and positive attitude and made us feel so comfortable and excited on our big day. We had a great experience with her.
We cannot thank Ashley and her assistant Valerie enough for everything they did on our wedding day.
We knew how important it was to have photos as an engaged couple and our big wed...
ding day. We are thrilled we decided to have Ashley capture our important moments. She instantly found a way to make it comfortable and fun for us and our family making the day even more special!
The photos turned out amazing and we were so impressed at how she worked with our family while even making it enjoyable for the teenagers of the group. She was extremely organized, which was so appreciated because it provided one less thing for us to worry about, she captured all the amazing moments while working so hard throughout the day. We were impressed with her energy and tenacity to capture all the moments. The photos Ashley took for our engagement and wedding are BEAUTIFUL and just BREATHTAKING!! We are so incredibly grateful Ashley photographed our wedding and appreciate the amazing artistry you provided in the photos.
From the bottom of our hearts we would like to say the biggest THANK YOU Ashley, anyone that works with you will not be disappointed you’re truly spectacular person!!!
Ashley is an amazing photographer and we are beyond pleased with the photos from our Wedding Day! She went above and beyond to make sure we felt calm and comfortable throughout the...
day, while capturing all the little moments. She coordinated the First Look beautifully, which was the most special part of our day aside from the Ceremony. She was efficient and organized, ensuring all the family and Wedding Party photos were taken in a timely manner.
If you are looking for a talented, professional and passionate photographer you will be extremely satisfied hiring Ashley!
We are SO happy that Ashley could be the photographer for our Scottsdale, AZ wedding. She is upbeat and fun, and just makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. We really w...
anted a photographer that wasn’t afraid of bright colors (we didn’t have the usual pastel wedding pallette) and Ashley knew exactly how to make us and our photos look amazing. We’re in love with our photos. Don’t think twice, if Ashley is available for your date just book her already! You’ll be happy you did! :)
Our wedding photos are amazing! Not only are they beautiful but they are natural. The photographers knew how to put us at ease and bring out our personalities. Ashley's team was a ...
pleasure to spend the day with and felt like members of the family. I am overjoyed by the quality of the shots and the quick turn around. I cannot recommend Ashley LaPrade Photography enough for your wedding.
Ashley did a great job as our wedding photographer from beginning to end. From the start she was responsive and took the time to understand what we were looking for. We had some un...
ique requests, such as a kind of random off site location to do pre-wedding shots at, as well as an hour of time unconnected to the wedding day to take shots of our next-day pool party. She worked with us to make it all happen within our budget with minimal stress. She also brought good energy and got right in to the dance floor on the wedding night to get some great candid shots. We would definitely recommend Ashley to future couples looking for a professional photographer for whatever their needs!
When searching for venues, and rentals in Palm Springs for our wedding we asked around about photographers. We kept hearing one name...Ashley LaPrade. We scheduled a FaceTime call ...
with her to meet and immediately we knew we found or photographer. She’s nice, funny and really knows her stuff. In the months that followed Ashely was very helpful about wedding things and advice. We met with her in March of 2019 to do our engagement photos and they were stunning. However, nothing compared to what was in store. Ashely’s team captured our big day impeccably. The light, the color, the drama of it all was beautifully photographed and honestly we were shocked because they made themselves blend in! It wasn’t like they were in everyones face or anything. We were literally in tears looking at our pictures and we couldn’t have been happier with her and her team. She has my recommendation without reservation and you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t at least give her a call. Thank you, Ashely and your team for helping make our day amazing.
Ashley LaPrade shot both my engagement shoot in Joshua tree, and wedding this past November, and I couldn’t love my photos any more! She makes you feel so comfortable and at ease, ...
and on your wedding day that is the most important! The lighting she captures in your photos is absolutely stunning! She has helped me relive the best day of my life in the most beautiful photos! I would recommend her to every single couple who wants magic through photography on their wedding day (or for any amazing moments you want to capture)! I can’t say enough great things about her, and am so grateful I found her!
My wife and I had the opportunity to work with Ashley for our engagement photos and wedding photos--she is nothing short of awesome! Ashley was not only professional in her approac...
h, but she made me and my now wife very comfortable and carefree. This obviously made all photo sessions enjoyable and fun--and, most importantly, the results and final products are phenomenal. Every photo was unique and creative. Ashley also was helpful outside of her capacity as a photographer--she is happy and willing to help make suggestions for all wedding planning needs, which was extremely helpful for us in planning. All in all, we HIGHLY recommend Ashley LaPrade Photography. You will definitely be overjoyed with her as a person as well as her work and creativity.
Ashley was absolutely amazing and worth every penny we paid for her!! She helped make sure we kept our timeline on track and was able to balance being 100% professional while still...
being fun. Her communication throughout the entire process was above and beyond. Since Ashely grew up around Palm Springs she was exceptionally helpful to me (planning a destination wedding) and helped with recommendations of other vendors and figuring out my day of timeline. She got a shot list from be beforehand and brought it with her to make sure she got every single photo I asked for, which I something I would have not thought about. I have to say again, her professionalism was more than I could have asked for.
Ashley LaPrade is by far the best photographer, for any and all occasions. My engagement photos are stunning and so is her personality demeanor and personality. My now husband is a...
very rigid, and shy person, but Ashley made him feel confident and comfortable within minutes of meeting her and taking photos. I will forever use Ashley's services she was a part of our biggest day, our wedding and we cannot wait for her to capture all the upcoming monumental moments of me and Rauls life.
Do yourself a favor and hire Ashley Laprade.
We can't say enough great things about Ashley!!! We knew she was our photographer during our first meeting with her to discuss our wedding. We really loved her laid back yet profes...
sional and personable, warm approach. We liked that Ashley truly spent the afternoon of our wedding day with us, capturing personal moments to remember the preparation all the way through the end of the reception.
We didn't have a formal wedding coordinator so we weren't familiar with some of the "etiquette" on different things like how we are supposed to cut the first piece of the wedding cake. One thing I will never forget is that when it was time for the cake cutting, Ashley quietly asked if we knew what to do. We didn't! She just calmly and matter factly told us what to do, and that was that!
Each photo she and her assistant captured are truly works of art! Our most difficult decision now is deciding what photos we want printed because they are ALL so amazing!!!
We HIGHLY recommend Ashley for your wedding or any other event you need a photographer for ! You will not be disappointed!!! Thank you, Ashley!
Ashley made all my picture wedding dreams come true. Finding a photographer to hire was one of the most challenging things for me because to me, it was the most important vendor I ...
would hire. Even if my hair was amazing and my decorations were beautiful, it wouldn’t matter if the photographs didn’t capture that. Well, all I have to say is that ASHLEY IS THE MOST AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER EVER. Not only did she capture the most amazing images of my wedding day, but she is one of the most fun people to just hang out with. My entire wedding day I felt relaxed, I never felt rushed through pictures. She was always in control and always had her eye on the clock and knew when to get things done. Ashley also came all the way to La Jolla from Palm Springs for my wedding! She shoot in a location that was fairly new to her and you would have never known. All of the pictures are beautiful and edited to perfection. Every time I look at my wedding pictures I get tear of joys because of how beautiful they are. They are everything I ever wanted and so so so much more. Because of Ashley, I get to relive my wedding everyday by looking at the pictures she took. If you are looking for an outgoing, friendly, top-notch, professional photographer for your wedding, do not go anywhere else, hire Ashley right now, it will be the best decision you make!
Ashley did an absolutely amazing job capturing our special day! She took the time to get to know us and made the wedding day so much more personal. She is such an amazing person wi...
th an amazing gift for photography! Ashley LaPrade is a such a sweet treasure to have!
Ashley helped me plan a surprise proposal for my partner at the botanical gardens in Palm Springs. I can't even begin to explain how amazing it went, and how stunningly she capture...
d the special moment. I had chatted with several photographers on the phone but instantly knew that Ashley was the one when she shared her great ideas on locations and how to pull off the surprise. She was such a pleasure to work with through the entire process and has a great website to streamline planning, communication and payment. I hope we can work with her at our (eventual) wedding!
Ashley was the absolute BEST photographer for our wedding! She's so creative and great at making sure she captures everything you want on your day! She was also SO extremely helpfu...
l with everything the whole day, it was like having a coordinator/assistant than never left my side! Not to mention she's the perfect balance of FUN and still very professional! Thanks Ashley!
Hey, you! Yeah, I'm talking to you! Stop reading and just call Ashley right now, you won't regret it! Need to know why? OK. Ashley is amazing! We found a package within my budget a...
nd she went above and beyond. I live in TX and was getting married in my Aunt and Uncles backyard in CA and she was in constant contact with any questions or concerns I had. We met the day of and even though we talked only once on the phone and had few emails, she is so warm and friendly it was like seeing an old friend. We talked for a bit and she was off and running. She just does her thing, (you do you boo.) After the ceremony, we had bridal party pictures and we had some little ones being, well, little ones and she was so patient, just went with the flow. After the grand entrance, girl got us our food! What? Yes! We sat down and here she comes with two plates of food. "What are you doing?" "Um, you need to eat!" Seriously?! Oh, and girl can cut a rug! She was rocking it on the dance floor right along side us! She is so much fun! She just blends in with the party. It is like having a long time friend there that just happens to take pictures. Please, I implore you, if you want a photographer that puts her heart and soul into her work and is just overall super fun, call Ashley! It will be the best, and least stressful, thing you will do for your wedding! Our pictures are going to be amazing, I just can't wait! Hugs! -Wyndi Fischer-
Ashley was really wonderful for our anniversary photo session. We live in LA and booked her for a one hour session in Palm Springs.

ughtful. Great communication throughout my interactions with her. She was friendly, sweet and picked a great location for the shoot.
Responsiveness: She was incredibly responsive to my emails throughout the process! She also had a very fast turnaround for the photos and sent the edited images quickly after the session.
Flexibility: Great flexibility with us on the session and easy to work with!
Would recommend booking with her! She listens well and will get images that you are interested in. We loved the photos she sent us and the location she picked for the shoot! Thank you Ashley!
I found Ashley’s website by doing a google search. We were planning a wedding in Palm Springs and we needed to find a local photographer. The photos on her website were amazing a...
nd I immediately contacted her to see if she would be available. She responded right away and set up a phone call to discuss our plans. She was so easy to talk to and helped us find a package that would work for us, as we were having a very small wedding. She insisted that I contact her as many times as I wanted before the wedding to share photo ideas, pinterest boards etc. On the day of the wedding she showed up at the house right on time and got started taking pictures of us getting ready, the rings, the dress etc... If we had an idea for a photo we wanted, she made it happen! She then came with us over to the restaurant to take pictures of the ceremony and reception. She was very personable and friendly and fit right in. All the guests loved her!! She was also extremely knowledgeable on the lighting and backgrounds that would produce the best shots. We received the photos a few weeks after the wedding and they are absolutely gorgeous!! I am so happy with them!! I highly recommend Ashley and I would definitely use her again!
Beautiful pictures were one of the things that mattered most to me when it came to planning our wedding. And my husband and I couldn't be more thankful about our decision to work w...
ith Ashley. She and her assistant did a fantastic job capturing our big day. Immediately after the wedding, so many of our guests kept telling us how much they loved our photographer and "just knew the photos were going to be amazing!" Well, they were right, and we absolutely love all of them. Ashley also created a gorgeous photo album for us that I've probably looked through a hundred times already!
As a photographer Ashley blends professional with personable in the most perfect way - excellent communication, attention to detail, very easy to work with, and a lot of fun to be around. Working with her is definitely one of the highlights from our big day. I would recommend her to anyone out there trying to find the best.
It can be hard to pick the right person to use for a service just from the internet and then hope for the best. But I never got that feeling after doing my research and reading eve...
ryones reviews on Ashley LaPrade Photography. That ultimately made our decision to use her for our engagement photos. Of course her work is beautiful to top it off! We flew from New York to the Palm Desert area and the communication on the entire process was flawless. After meeting her I knew right away that we made the right decision. Her warm and inviting bubbly personality made us feel comfortable. Our photos came out great and we enjoyed working with her.
If you need a wedding photographer, look no further! Ashley is absolutely amazing. From my very first contact with her, she was very accommodating and was willing to drive out clos...
er to my location to meet. Although she lives in palm springs, I live in LA, and my wedding was in San Diego, she had no issues with traveling to accommodate our needs. She offers great affordable prices and provides excellent service! At our wedding, she captured beautiful candid moments that i didn't even know she was there for! She also had a quick turnaround with our pictures and they turned out beautifully. We received so many compliments about her and her work. She is so sweet and she always makes sure she is giving you exactly what you want. She makes posing in front of a camera, which can be awkward for some(my husband and I included), simple and fun with her easy going personality and wittiness. Definitely choose Ashley as your photographer, you won't be disappointed!
