I am a photographer, dog mom, sometimes baker, and a mountain gal based in Brooklyn. To put it simply, I am in love with stories. I genuinely love getting to know my couples. I feel that when you have a relationship with your subjects their personality shines through. In any space, I'm always trying to find the light.
I have over 15 years of experience in photography and have gone through many phases in my career. From started out shooting for a children's portrait studio in Denver, to shooting fashion for fashion week and bloggers in NYC. Weddings have always been a sweet spot for me as I genuinely love love. Weddings are the perfect mix of portraits, fashion, interiors, and candid moments that I have spent my career shooting. I can't wait to bring all of this experience to your special day.
When I’m not shooting, I can be found at a one of NYC's parks, traveling to new places, or catching a yoga class. I love being outside, and I have a border-line unhealthy obsession with animals. If you have a cat or a dog, we’ll instantly be best friends, and I’ll happily show you pictures of my adopted pup Juno! (Thanks @badassanimalrescue)
I can’t wait to meet you and hear more about your love story.

My husband and I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Ashley and Iris & Ivy Photography for our city hall wedding. From the very start, Ashley made everything feel fun, ope...
n, and comfortable, which was really important to people who are awkward in front of a camera like we are. It was truly like spending the day with a great friend rather than a vendor. Ashley has an incredible ability to put you at ease in front of the camera. She had us laughing and relaxed, which was especially perfect for our intimate ceremony
We love what Ashley captured for us on our wedding day. In addition to having an incredible eye, the way she communicated from the beginning to the end instilled a deep trust that isn't always easy to come by. She allowed us to be vulnerable which allowed her to capture our true emotion and intimacy. Nothing felt forced or overly posed; instead, every image feels authentic and timeless, perfectly reflecting who we are and the joy of the day.
The overall experience was made even better due to Ashley’s contagious energy. She brought such a calming, positive presence, and we genuinely enjoyed having her with us on our big day. We couldn’t recommend Iris & Ivy more highly and will treasure these photos forever.
Thank you, Ashley!
