Griot Photo

ay of the wedding, she felt like she was my wedding coordinator, not just my photographer. She was on schedule the entire day and kept things rolling without me ever having to stress or lose my cool. She's very open to suggestions on where to shoot or poses to try. Her style of photography was what really drew us to her in the first place. Our engagement and wedding photos were absolutely stunning! Ashley also works with some great photographers as her second shooters. She definitely has some great connections and stands out amongst the rest! We received over 1400+ wedding photos just did take 90 days to receive. It felt a little long to get photos since by that point, the wedding felt so long ago. People had already moved on by then. I would have been fine getting less photos in a shorter amount of time, but if you want good quality photos, you can't go wrong with choosing her. Literally every single photo we received was one I could have put into our wedding album! It was so hard to narrow them down to our formal album. I was so happy to have chosen Ashley for our wedding photographer that I actually have used her a bit for professional shoots at work as well. Five stars!

and extremely professional. In fact, we received so many comments from guests on how friendly and wonderful she was! Our pictures have turned out absolutely beautiful and we are so lucky to have someone who captured every special moment of our big day in such a beautiful way. In addition to how talented she is when it comes to photography, she also went above and beyond to offer help throughout our planning process by sending vendor recommendations and always checking in on us. She has morphed from a great wedding vendor into a great friend! I cannot recommend Ashley enough, anyone would be lucky to have her as part of their special day!!

her engagement shoot and wedding, so I decided to as well. We took our engagement pictures on a Wednesday and the next day I got the email that the gallery was ready. I have friends who have waited 4 months! Our engagement photo shoot really solidified the fact that we made the right choice when picking Ashley!!

and authentic. Can’t wait to have her shoot our wedding!

or incredibly wonderful results. the hallmark of a great photographer is when you do not even know they are there during the event but seem to capture the entirety of the event. We would use Ashley again in a split second!

the majority of our wedding day. She orchestrated an amazing first look location and captured the most perfect moments from our entire wedding day. We have memories that we will cherish forever thanks to Griot Photo!

session the week of the wedding- which turned out breathtaking. Unfortunately, there was torrential rain the day of the wedding- but Ashley never missed a beat or a photo op... looking back on pictures you would never know it rained. She even offered for my husband and I to meet a few weeks after the wedding to take sunset photos at our reception venue since we were unable to get those due to the rain. She continuously goes over and above for her clients, and treats everyone like family. She is a true artist and I would highly recommend her for any photography needs. I know I will be using her again for all my family's needs in the future.

hat knows how to make the entire experience fun for everyone. She is dedicated to giving each couple their dream experience and works hard to tailor her amazing talent for each individual couple. I have referred her to several couples with full confidence that they will absolutely love their photos!

cial moments that she captured.

flexible and supportive! We just received our complimentary engagement photos and WOW- her work is stunning. We are so happy we chose to work with Ashley. She seems more like a new BFF than a wedding vendor and I am so happy she will be with us on our wedding day!

h! She turned our lack of photo experience and awkwardness into beautifully captured moments. We couldn't be happier with our pictures and we can't wait to work with her on our big day!

could. Thank you so much Ashley! We will be using you again soon!

y loved having her as a huge part of our big day. We will definitely be using Ashley for our future family photos! You cannot go wrong with Griot Photo!!

personality and passion for what she does really shines through when she is working with you and quickly puts you at ease. This was my first photo shoot ever and Ashley made it a wonderful experience. She truly listens to what you want and produces beautiful results. I have no doubt we will continue to use Ashley to capture our major milestones in life.

photos for us to remember forever. Gorgeous photography! I would recommend to anyone. Thank you, Ashley!!! :)

sionalism, personality, and skills are all reasons someone should definitely choose her as their wedding photographer! We loved having her as part of our wedding!

the perfect balance of getting all the shots we wanted while not having us miss anything at our wedding. I could not recommend her enough, I would have given her 10 stars if I could.

couple who are super into having our photo taken so I was blown away by how good the photos looked. She is very sweet and easy going but will also give you good direction and feedback to get the best poses and shots. After we met her and saw the engagement photos we knew we made the right choice. Our wedding photos came out absolutely perfect and we couldn’t be happier. She is truly talented and great at her job. She is also very flexible and accommodating and was always easy to get in touch with. We loved her!

ancé learn a little bit about how our big day would go, and it was incredibly helpful for the day of our wedding. I am still in awe of how incredibly beautiful her photos are, she perfectly captured the feel of the day. Everyone was really blown away by her work. She was so easy to work with, and very responsive to any questions I had. I’d absolutely recommend working with her!

ion, she made sure we were not awkward, and for our wedding, she captured things we would not have thought of. She was fun and they really helped our bridal party loosen up. The only thing from preventing our review from being a five star is because we felt we did not receive our photos back after our wedding in a timely manner, a little more than 4 months. However, because of this she gave us some extra photos for free. I would recommend Griot Photo for anyone who wants candid and beautiful photos.

orporate all of our ideas. She was flexible on the day of the wedding when the photography timeline changed and brought a calming presence throughout the day. She captured the the true beauty and essence of the day and we couldn’t be happier that we chose her to take our photos on our special day.

d all the photos she took! I will use her again!

an amazing photographer and I highly recommended her!

Let me explain, the wedding planning process, for my beautiful wife and I, was extremely stressful. We both work full-time, high-stressed jobs and finding the time to coordinate the wedding was almost non-existent. We were referred to Ashley through a mutual friend. It was one of the best text messages I've received. Immediately, Ashley relieved us of our stress. She was able to be a guiding light for our planning process and went above and beyond her position as "wedding photographer," it should have been Most Valuable Wedding Person (MVWP)! During wedding day, Ashley was professional and kept everything moving efficiently. Maybe the best part of our Griot Photo experience was post-wedding day. We all know that post-wedding we all want to SEE the pictures. Well, Ashley set a time table and expectation on photo editing and delivery. She delivered as promised, even prior to the scheduled deadline. Since our wedding, we have gone on to use Ashley's services for multiple other shoots. Most importantly, we are proud to call Ashley a family friend and someone that will be near and dear to our hearts forever. 5 stars all around and would recommend to any and all that seek a professional and talented photographer for their special day! -Ryan T

ot down on one knee and promised my now wife forever (she even helped me plan it out with my friends who were assisting me making it special), she created the perfect setting for our engagement photos to use for our Save the Dates, and of course made our whirlwind of a wedding day stand still with amazingly gorgeous shots (I got chills writing that last part). Ashley knows how to make sure you are the subject in front of the lens and creates such beautiful moments that you will be so happy you captured forever. Ashley has now done newborn pictures, maternity shoots, yearly family photos and many more occasions for us and close friends and family. She will ALWAYS be our first and only photographer for as long as she can handle this crazy family (which she can because of how incredibly patient she is). I highly encourage Ashley for engagements, weddings and any life event that you want to cherish forever. Thank you Ashley for everything!

xtremely personable and professional! I highly recommend her!

very happy!
