Michele Ashley Photography

cause as I was looking through them, all i could think of was how beautiful they were. My husband and I met with Michele, saw some of her work, and instantly fell in love with her talent. We didn't even look any further, we called her the next day and asked her to be our photographer. I am not one who enjoys photographs, or even looks good in pictures. Michele did a phenomenal job. She is a sweetheart and made me feel extremely comfortable. I actually enjoyed getting my picture taken for once. I am in love with my wedding pictures thanks to Michele. I highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

t meeting we knew that Michele was the best choice for our special day. Not only is she extremely talented but she is one of the most kind hearted, genuine person I have ever met. The images we received from both the engagement shoot and the wedding are true treasures and capture the day perfectly. We were so happy to be able to work with Michele as she made the process so effortless and truly became a friend and not just someone we were working with. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a photographer to reach out to Michele!!

t match for us. We were looking for a photographer that would steer away from the traditional shots and she listened to our requests for more candid and lifestyle pictures. We met with her prior to our wedding for our engagement pics and quickly felt comfortable working with her and she was able to give us tips to get the best shots. The wedding day was awesome as she got all of the shots we requested and was cool, calm and collected during the hectic day! We received our photos a few weeks ago and are in love with them! She was able to capture the details, party, happiness so perfectly and I will never get sick of looking at the album. If you want someone who provides the best shots and is a pleasure to work with, then Michele is your girl!

e was our photographer put me at ease on our wedding day. I knew that I could trust her to capture every moment and she did just that and more! Michele also took the time to personally get to know us and what we liked and I love that about her. I plan on recommeding Michele to everyone I know getting married!

ing a job.. they felt like extended family enjoying the moments alongside us. We are so lucky to have found her!!! ♡

ter we left, my husband and I said to each other that it felt like we had just met a friend for dinner rather than a potential wedding vendor. From minute one, Michele made us feel relaxed and comfortable with her and the whole photography process. We told her that being in a ton of photos is not one of our favorite activities, but Michele managed to make it seem like no big deal. She is so fun, friendly, easy to work with, talented, passionate….I could go on and on. She has a great vision and can turn any setting into beautiful backgrounds for photos. Having an amazing photographer was very important to us because these pictures will last forever as a reminder of our wedding day and with Michele, amazing is exactly what we got. We are truly blessed and thankful for Michele and her work. If Michele is available for your wedding, you must book her - you won’t be disappointed!!

ement photos and Michele was able to make us feel at ease and captured the most intimate yet natural moments. Once we received our photos from the wedding I was in awe. I couldn't have imagined more stunning photos that captured the atmosphere, details and family and friends enjoying themselves. I can't thank Michele and Andy enough!

ied we would have to settle on our photographer. Then we found Michele through social media and from the very beginning, we were impressed! She was so friendly and willing to work with us on our budget. From meeting her for the first time, to our engagement shoot in Newport RI to our big day, she was helpful, professional and made us feel comfortable! She made herself available to us at all times via email or text and she event added an extra hour to the day last minute so we could capture even more special moments. She worked with us through floods and lightening and we can't thank her enough!

e. She is definitely a must have if you want beautiful and timeless photos!

smile. When I saw the 1,000 wedding photos she went us I could not stop smiling. She captured all the little, natural moments without making us pose for ridiculous staged shots. She was so easy and fun to work with and I would highly recommend her work to anyone.

an amazing ability to capture the little moments. The natural moments. None of our wedding photos are staged or painfully posed. They caught each moment exactly as it was. Their quality is great and their personalities make it even better. They are so laid back, so easy to work with, and made so sure that everything we wanted was taken care of. Michele did our engagement session in Newport and suggested the location. She hit it out of the park, both for location and photos. She made us feel so comfortable. We now call them photografriends and though our wedding is over I will find excuses in the future to work with them again. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants a photographer who creates great work and truly cares about you and your experience.

s that we loved.

apher and has some of the best help in the world, her husband Andy! Her friendly, welcoming and fun attitude makes you fall in love with her and her photography even more. Michele cares about the people she works with, asking about their lives and relationships. She takes every moment during her photo shoots to make you feel like you are the center of the world and like you could actually be a professional model, while making you completely comfortable. Her photo shoots feel so natural and never like you are posing, although I loved it when she would tell us to do something a little silly that she knows will create a beautiful photo in the end! Michele has taken the pictures for our engagement, our small, intimate marriage ceremony, and our wedding. Every single photo was perfect, and that is not an exaggeration! Her attention to detail and all the time and love she puts into her work shows in every picture you get from her. I could not imagine working with anyone else for such important moments that we want captured in photos. She gets your photos back to you so incredibly quick, even though she takes time to edit and perfect every single one. Michele catches every moment you could possibly want to look back on in every one of your occasions that she is present for. I absolutely love working with Michele and I am so happy to have her photos to help us remember such wonderful days in our lives! I already cannot stop looking at them daily. She is truly the best of the best!

ng our wedding to me and also the most stressful...I wanted to have someone who we were comfortable with and who could capture the true essence of our relationship, and it took us a couple tries to find the right fit for us. We met with several area photographers not to mention sent countless emails and inquiries, but there were always pro and cons after talking with them and I never felt connected or at ease with any of them. When we happened on Michele, through mutual friends, we truly got all that I wanted and more, so so SO much more! Michele was my favorite part of our whole wedding planning experience...she is truly a one-of-a-kind, sweet, genuine, incredibly talented, and beautiful person in every way! I am beyond thankful that our paths have crossed, that she has become a valued and dear friend, and cannot be more grateful and honored to have her as our wedding photographer! She captured some of the most beautiful photos that I've seen and was always nothing short of professional and wonderful! You are her priority and she completely puts you at ease and lights up a room all on her own! If you can't tell by now...I adore Michele and I would recommend her photography services to everyone, I can't sing her praises (both as a spectacular photographer and as a wonderful human being) enough! ❤️ I am forever grateful!

apture our weddings! Words cannot describe how happy my husband and I are that we had the opportunity to work with her! She was amazing and the pictures are beautiful! I can't stop looking at them and I have received so many compliments about them! She stayed in touch with us throughout the whole process, offered advice and captured every moment of our big day! I was so nervous about our "getting to know you" session because I do not enjoy getting my picture taken. Michele made us feel so comfortable and relaxed and it was so much fun! What I loved most about the wedding day is we barely even knew she was there. I've seen so many wedding photos that look posed and everyone looks uncomfortable, but Michele captures everything as it happens and I loved that! She helped us prepare before the big day by putting together a timeline and asking for a list of family formals we wanted which helped us make sure everything went smoothly and nothing was overlooked!! We barely even knew she was there! If you are looking for someone that is easy to work with, that takes beautiful pictures and offers competitive pricing; look no further than Michele!!

de taking pictures so fun and easy and every photo taken became a beautiful memory . We recommend her to everyone and tell all of our friends how lucky we were to find her . Because of michele we have memories to treasure for a lifetime .. we couldn't thank her enough

d. She made us so comfortable during our engagement session, which made the wedding day go even more smoothly. She walked into my parents' house amidst wedding day chaos as all the girls were getting ready, but she just calmly started shooting the details and taking candid shots while we finished up. The pictures are beautiful, and we're very happy we chose Michele as our photographer!

clicked with 2- Quality of there photos, with the new style like what you see in bridal magazines, not the older formal type. 3-what everyone basically looks for is price. I had a very big ALL day wedding so I needed her for 9 hours!! She met all these and BEYOND! Her personality is awesome, the style of her photos were right out of a magazine, and the packages she offers are more then affordable for how talented she is! Her husband Andy is also amazing and so talented! I just cant say enough about how wonderful my wedding, engagement and boudoir pictures came out. Also wanted to note how they were right on time, professional, and very organized . If you are looking for a photographer that you will feel like you have known your whole life, and want your wedding to be captured in the most natural "in the moment" way, she's your girl!

e portraits that aren't staged. Can not recommend enough!
