Ellen Ashton Photography

our special day with such amazing creativity, and she professionally worked her way around the intense 7pm Texas sun. She communicated quickly and clearly, and always maintained a positive attitude. I 100% will be recommending her services to all friends and family, and I'll be using her for significant life events in the future.

beyond what I could even dream of, and you gave us lasting memories. Not only did we feel comfortable taking pictures with you, but we had some crazy lighting to deal with both times we took pictures, and you can’t even tell. I am so excited to get the rest of our wedding pictures. I am going to tell everyone to use you because you outdid yourself!

iful! She is so talented, and was able to deliver the most beautiful engagement, bridal portrait, budoir, and wedding photos ever! I can't wait to see the full wedding album. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! You get so much value with hiring her - it was one of the absolute best decisions I made in my wedding planning process!

ent pictures to boudoir pictures to the wedding pictures) were perfect and I am so thankful to have had her as my photographer. I look forward to cherishing these moments in the future and have her to thank for it!

She was amazing about keeping me calm and not stressed. She knows how to handle large families and bridal parties with ease. I know that Ellen got some amazing shots, and she made me feel so incredibly beautiful on my wedding day. If you’re considering booking Ellen, do it! I promise you won’t regret working with this beautiful soul.

er way to make you feel absolutely beautiful. Her work and pictures are seriously dreamy, and I LOVE her attention to the little details. I am so thankful we had her on our team to capture our day.

rs ago. When we decided to get married in Fort Worth, i was very hesitant because i didn't know any wedding vendors in DFW and all the options really overwhelmed me. I was immediately drawn to Ellen's photography and was the first photographer i reached out as i figured i would talk to multiple photographers. As soon as i spoke with Ellen, we immediately clicked started a friendship where i knew she was someone i wanted to be a part of my wedding planning journey. We facetimed for an hour and Ellen was sure to get to know our story, hobbies, passions and vision for our wedding. She is organized and has an eye for detail. Her goal is to capture the story of your wedding day so your future grandkids can relive your wedding day. My husbands family experienced a family emergency around the time of signing the contract. Ellen was getting other inquiries for our wedding date. Ellen was super understanding and patient through the process. she actually cares for her clients and is with them throughout the entire way no matter what obstacles arise. Once booked, we first met Ellen at our engagement photo shoot where Ellen made us feel so comfortable and kept us laughing to help us break through the initial awkwardness. She has an ability to make you feel relaxed and comfortable in your own skin. The engagement photos turned out INCREDIBLE! Ellen is very clear on turnaround time for editing and sending final photos. She keeps her word and actually finished our engagement, bridal and wedding photos earlier than expected! About five months prior to our wedding day, Ellen called me out of the blue to let me know that her and her husband were expecting and was due 2 weeks after my wedding date! We cried in excitement and Ellen told me that she was going to be there on our wedding day no matter what (i thought she was crazy!) and she said she had a back up plan already finalized no matter what happened. I had a choice to go forward with the chance she may not be there as lead photographer on our wedding day or chose another wedding photographer but it never crossed my mind because I really couldnt imagine another photographer for our day. About a month before our wedding, i had my bridals where Ellen is pretty pregnant at this point but feeling great and such a trooper! We both happy cried together when i got dressed because that is just who Ellen is. She shares the special moments with you, cries and laughs with you. She makes you forget about the wedding planning stress and focuses on the excitement. Come our wedding day, Ellen shows up, about to pop, smiling, excited and was READY to shoot our wedding. She arrived before the planned time and got all the details together. We had a 34 person wedding party and she managed to line everyone up and get all our wedding party pics out of the way before the ceremony started. It was honestly incredible and i still don't know how she did it! She was such a huge part of the day and i am so thankful i found Ellen. Our wedding photos turned out BEAUTIFUL! Ellen is a committed photographer. Photographing weddings isn't just a job for her, it's her passion. She is patient, caring, trusting and all around incredible vendor and friend. I miss working so closely with her and wish we could do it all over again. Book Ellen today!

r sweatpants around our new house, which was such a fun experience and made us feel extremely comfortable ahead of our wedding day. I have no idea how she's so good at feeling like an old friend while being extremely professional at the same time. Do yourself a favor, book her! By the way, her turnaround time for photos is FAST. It was well under what she promised in the contract.

e day came out even more perfect than what I imagined. Definitely a top choice for the day! We are so very grateful for her.

ce. The first couple of times we spoke I immediately felt like I was talking to a best friend. We had never had professional photos done and I was a little anxious about the whole process. I’ve never been comfortable taking pictures, but Ellen was so reassuring. We did the our engagement photos and wedding photos with her, and I couldn’t have been happier with the results. I was fairly stress free that day, but still every picture we took, I was still a little anxious how they were turning out. My biggest fear was to end up getting pictures and not liking any of them; I think Ellen realized how I was feeling and made it a point to stop and give me some sneak peaks to reassure me it was all going well. Her energy and positivity made the whole experience so easy and fun. The pictures turned out amazing! We got so many compliments and it made me so emotional looking back at all the sweet/candid moments she caught that I didn’t even realize was happening around me. I would 100% recommend her to anybody in need of a photographer. My husband and I have already discussed using her in the future whenever the time comes for maternity and family shoots :)

! HIRE HER!! Don't think twice!!

afternoon leading up to my bridals was the worst most stressful day and she was so great about letting me take my time to chill before portraits and by the end of it my day was so much better. And Oh my gosh she was wonderful at our wedding, feels like you have a life long friend taking your pictures. We’re already planning to use her for all our future picture needs. She’s that amazing.

he best I have ever seen, she is soooo sweet and amazing to work with! Another thing I was concerned about was staying on time with pictures, Ellen will make sure everyone is where they are suppose to be, on time, and ready to go! This type A ocd bride was in heaven and I’ve never been More relaxed and confident! The pictures are stunning and truly the best! I don’t live in DFW anymore, but I’ve thought about flying Ellen to buffalo Ny for future picture sessions 🤣 Absolutely the best photographer ever!!!

the memories of your wedding and thankfully, I have so many incredible ones to chose from. First, Ellen was able to get some AMAZING engagement shots with our dogs! She kept me calm from the stress of changing outfits/changing venues. We were married in Mexico and brought our sweet Ellen along with us. Her personality is so genuine and kind- we loved having her with us. She captured details from my wedding that my own mom missed! She is very organized and knows her stuff- she even whipped my videographer in line!!!! ;) I also appreciate her realistic view on time to maximize time with our family + still getting great pictures. My grandma has changed her facebook photo 3 times to photos by Ellen Ashton- they're just that good. I have passed Ellen's name on to many friends who have all been just as impressed as I am with her. She sends you sneak peaks very quickly and edits THOUSANDS of the photos. I am SOO glad I found Ellen and that she was a part of my wedding day. Since I'm only getting married once, I am so pleased with the photos and will be able to look back for YEARS. CANNOT RECOMMEND ELLEN ENOUGH!!!!!!

e cares deeply for her clients and really enjoys what she does. Ellen did our engagement photos and then our wedding. We knew when we got our engagement pictures back that we would be so happy with our wedding pictures...and we were! Ellen is truly an artist and did such a good job of capturing every detail form our big day. She made the entire experience fun and relaxed and I feel like that joy was completely captured in the photos. Basically, book Ellen Ashton Photography, you will NOT be disappointed!!!!

She has such a passion and God-given talent for what she does, and it is really reflected in her work.

I would definitely recommend Ellen as a highly qualified, professional, and gifted photographer to any bride looking for a fine art wedding photographer!

he genuinely cares about all of her clients needs, while also anticipating their wants! She knows how to bring out the best in her clients which allows her to capture tender, intimate moments. Her passion for her couples stories is real and pure. You can't go wrong booking with Ellen!

absolute dream. Not only is her work absolutely incredible but her sweet and bubbly personality made my husband and I feel comfortable and so loved. Ellen makes an extra gesture to get to know each of her clients personally which made my husband and I SO confident in our wedding photographer decision through the whole process. Even before booking with Ellen, we had the opportunity to chat on the phone with her for over an hour just so she could get to know us and we could get to know her! She continued to give us personal phone calls through the planning process and we knew with having such a personal connection with our photographer, that she would do an incredible job and she certainly over delivered!!!! On our wedding day, I seriously did not have to worry about a thing, even with a wedding party of 20 people! The way Ellen goes about photographing the day of is absolutely incredible. She is so organized and so on top of it that the day went so smoothly. She’s BEYOND organized and knows exactly what she’s doing when it comes to a timeline the day of.

e in our lives. She exceeded our expectations by a million. Ellen is one of the sweetest and most kind hearted people I have ever met. She has a true passion for what she does and it shows every time you work with her. She truly cares about her clients and her work is absolutely breathtaking. We have received nothing but compliments on our engagement and wedding photos. I cried receiving both albums and I wish I could thank Ellen a million times for giving us the most precious memories.

c. I would hire her in a minute to be my photographer. You will not be disappoint!!

with a best friend! I would highly recommend Ellen to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

on multiple styled shoots and weddings. Every time we receive one of her galleries we are blown away! You won't find another photographer that is as passionate about her work and she captures the pure essence of our designs each and every time we work with her. We are delighted to recommend Ellen Ashton Photography. Hire her, it will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding day!

ented, but she is fun to work with! If you are looking for a fabulous photographer, Ellen is your girl!!

minute of working with her. She not only took the time to get to know my husband and I before we began working together (FaceTimed for about an hour), but she drove all the way out to Oklahoma to do our engagement shoot with us in the mountains. From the second we met her in person it felt like we knew her forever! She made us feel so comfortable in a situation where we were totally new and shy to. She is an absolute doll to work with, and her photos are the best that I have ever seen. She captures moments so well, and makes sure that they are exactly what her client is wanting. I worked with her during our engagement shoot, my bridals, boudoir and then of course our wedding day, and every single time I felt like she gave it her all. She made everyone that she photographed feel like the most beautiful person in the world. I would recommend her time and time again! Ellen - we LOVE YOU!

y of her work! As soon as I met Ellen, I could sense this immense spirit of joy and the passion she has for her work. She will do just about anything to capture the artistic vision in her mind and get the perfect shot. I mean, Ellen literally hiked a mountain in Colorado in two feet of snow in order to shoot our engagement pictures. Talk about committed to her clients. There has not been a single photo that my husband and I haven’t absolutely loved (and I am INCREDIBLY particular about photography). Ellen ended up being so much more than a photographer to us. She was one of our guests who just happened to have a camera in her hands to capture our favorite day. Without hesitation, we would recommend her (10 times out of 10) to ANYONE in search of a top tier photographer. Check her out on Instagram. @ellenashton

as our photographer was without a doubt the best decision I made throughout the entire wedding process! She photographed our surprise proposal... which ended up being shared by How He Asked, she helped me every step of the way with our engagement shoot from styling, to florals and traveled across the country for our wedding! Ellen is creative, sweet, witty and so talented! She went above and beyond in every way! I am so thankful she was my wedding photographer! She's the BEST!

reatest photography experience I've ever had!!! If you are looking for top notch photography, she's is your girl!!! I would give her 10 stars but that's not an option!!!

omenal job! We are thrilled with the photos and love Ellen's sweet spirit and kind heart. She was a joy to work with in every way and we are in love with the results. Highly recommend!

my ideas perfectly and went above and beyond. Love Ellen!

rst time we met Ellen was over Skype. I knew right away that she would be great! She took the time to get to know us, and I think that made a big difference. We loved the photos Ellen took! She captured everything about that day that we wanted. We have received so many compliments on our photos and are so grateful we decided to hire Ellen.

s have so many different setups and wanted to please us. Ellen is your girl!

amera shyness and guided me on how to pose without looking like an awkward mess - ha! And in the process, I gained a new friend! You're a gem, Ellen!

! I had seen a lot of Ellen's work and was very impressed with the way that she is able to take such beautiful, inspired and artistic photographs, all the while capturing real moments full of warmth and life. When I hired Ellen I had no doubt that my wedding photographs would be absolutely perfect, and I was so right! They turned out far better than I could ever imagine! Not only am I beyond happy and excited about my beautiful photographs, I am also beyond impressed with Ellen's perfect mix of pure talent and professionalism. She has the knowledge of how to create perfect pictures as well as being able to visualize how a photo will turn out in order to make it the best possible. Also, it was an added bonus that Ellen and her assistant were both very friendly and down to earth-- they made my groom and I feel perfectly comfortable and allowed us to have lots of "real moments" and were able to capture those moments in such a beautiful way. My groom has a tendency to be a little nervous and awkward (which I think is cute! ;-)) when he is put under pressure or put on the spot, BUT Ellen was able to make even him feel comfortable enough to just enjoy the moment and allow her to take the photos. Overall, I am very happy to give Ellen Ashton Photography 5 stars! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone who is looking for a photographer for any reason! She is truly the best! There is literally nothing negative that I could say! I'm so pleased that we had the privilege of having Ellen photograph the most special day of our lives!

s." She did a phenomenal job taking our wedding pictures! We had an unusual location for our wedding, but Ellen did an amazing job capturing all the beauty! Not only is Ellen an extremely talented photographer who just keeps getting better and better, her personality is one of the best qualities! She makes you feel comfortable and at ease while being photographed. I would DEFINITELY recommend her to anyone looking for an engagement or wedding photographer!

ore than what we ever expected. She took our engagement photos, our wedding photos, and came back a year later to take our first anniversary photos. She was not just a photographer and a fly on the wall, she was a part of our wedding and so good at making everyone comfortable, relaxed, and easy going. She even made friends with the bridesmaids, and even our guests talk about how great she was! She is a people person that truly cares for your big day. Ellen was great to work with and we recommend anyone looking for a wedding photographer to consider Ellen! You will NOT be disappointed. Thank you Ellen!!!

ssion of genuine care for her clients. Ellen was professional, flexible, supportive, conscientious, creative, and a joy to work with throughout the process. She met with us beforehand to get to know us and plan particular photos we'd want her to take, so we could spend our wedding day being present in the moment. She helped us pick the perfect spot for our first look, and took both candids and posed pictures that artistically capture the anticipation, joy, tenderness, and celebration of the day. Every time we look at our photos, we are carried back to that wonderful day because Ellen caught it so well on film, and she was a joy to work with. We recommend her so highly!

moment you meet her. Not only does she genuinely care for each person she meets, but she is also fiercely talented at what she does. You will walk away with some of your most cherished memories - not only portraits your are proud of, but details that harken the true emotion of your season of life. The care and attention to detail that Ellen brings to everything she does will shine and be timeless for years to come. You cannot go wrong choosing Ellen to document your special day!

sions to capture unique and absolutely STUNNING photos. I have worked along side her for a few styled shoots ... I'm a hairdresser and makeup artist ... And she is just amazing. She truly cares about her clients and her work. There is no cutting corners with Ellen. She is kind, sweet, silly, understanding, and most of all FUN. If you're looking for someone to capture the important moments of life, look no further that Ellen Ashton Photography. You will not be disappointed.

nsure of but he did them anyway and they are his favorite ones. It's been 4 years and they are still our favorite pictures of us and we continue to get wonderful compliments on them!
