Christine Ashburn Wedding Photography

s her surroundings to her advantage. We loved her editorial style and expertise shooting in nature without washing out the colors. She kept us calm and moving through bridal party photos and family portraits, and captured the energy and love of our wedding day so beautifully. We’d highly recommend her for your special day!

nt out of their way to tell us how much they loved her and her work. One tiny story: I had a small and hilarious mishap in which I got lipstick on my wedding dress pretty much at the start of the day, and she was there with my mom and I to see if we could get it out (we couldn't), and then there to calm me down, keep things in perspective, and keep it all moving. To me it was so above and beyond, and came so naturally to her. She was the perfect mix of being totally involved, without forcing anything with our guests to get all posy-posy or being obtrusive in any way. She made us laugh throughout the photo session and made us feel comfortable, captured so many gems, and I really felt like she was a part of our day and wedding party. She's given us so many BEAUTIFUL photos we'll always cherish, and I'll always be so thankful to her! THANK YOU, Christine! XO - Rachel and Bryan

ed at her style of photography, I found just what I was looking for and reached out to her to photograph our elopement. Christine's website says right up top "Less posing, more being," and this is exactly what I was looking for in our elopement photographer. Her beautifully lit, documentary style photography was perfect for the type of intimate celebration I was looking for. Within an hour of my inquiry, Christine warmly responded, and we set up a time to chat. Christine was easy to talk to, extremely knowledgeable about the Hudson Valley, and met us with a sort of casual kindness that I was immediately drawn to. Leading up to the wedding, Christine was so incredibly helpful, navigating location closures due to COVID, helping us secure a location that perfectly matched what we were looking for - outdoor views on the Hudson river. Christine was incredibly communicative, responding within an hour to all my emails, and Facetiming with us to get to know us and our story ahead of time. She knew exactly when to time our ceremony to get the incredible photography that drew me to her work, and just generally went above and beyond to make sure our elopement was spectacular in every way, even suggesting a great officiant she knew, who we ended up working with. The evening of our wedding was no different than the kindness leading up to it, Christine shot our wedding in about 100-degree humid heat, with a mask on, carting multiple cameras, and was HAPPY to do it. She was professional, gracious, safe, made us feel incredibly comfortable, AND sent us a breathtaking sneak peek later that evening. It was literally everything we could have ever dreamed of. I will recommend Christine to everyone looking for a wedding/family photographer in the Hudson Valley. Her genuine capture of love is beautiful, and she's the type of vendor looking to make your life easier, not more difficult. Her knowledge of the area combined with her kind spirit and willingness to go above and beyond made our wedding so special. We can't wait to hire her to capture more family moments for us throughout the years to come.

best time spending the day with them. Our photos were delivered about a month after our wedding. We are so beyond thrilled with the final photos. We can't stop looking at them! Highly recommend Christine!
