Ashta did AMAZING - could not recommend her enough. She got us sneak peaks within 24 hours and made us relive the day all over again in the moments she caught. She knew what she was doing and helped out so much the day of! 1000000/10

Ashta was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From our very first interaction at my brother's wedding 3 years ago, to engagement photos on a whim, her communication style was clear, direct, and easy - exactly what we needed during the busy wedding planning process. The quality of her work is truly amazing and worth every penny. Ashta made the timeline for our day and wrangled our family photos with ease, allowing us to enjoy our special day without stress. Ashta is the best wedding photographer we could have asked for, and we are thrilled with the beautiful photos that captured all the love and joy of our wedding day. BOOK THIS WOMAN FOR YOUR WEDDING!!!

Ashta was absolutely fantastic and my husband and I could not recommend her enough! We are completely obsessed with our photos! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captured our love so beautifully! If you want an amazing photographer you cannot go wrong with Ashta!

Ashta was the best!! Our wedding planner had recommended her and she was a perfect fit for us. My husband and I needed someone who would make us feel comfortable and relaxed infront of the camera and Ashta does just that. With our wedding being in downtown Savannah we had really wanted to take pictures down by the river and Ashta made sure that happened for us! She kept us on track the whole day and was just super fun to have part of our day! Before we move from Savannah we would love to have photos taken with our dog and I would without a doubt book with Ashta again!

Ashta from the beginning had been so friendly and amazing to work with!! She is extremely talented and basically saved the day at my very chaotic wedding!! The pictures came out beautiful and we even received a surprise gift in the mail from her the other day! She is super thoughtful and I wish she lived a little closer so that I could always use her for my professional photos!! I would say I wish we had a bit more time with her to do additional couples photos and family photos but all in all I am super pleased with her❤️

We felt like Ashta was a best friend from the first meeting with her and we felt so comfortable having her by our side on our big day! Our pictures turned out more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. Thank you Ashta & Sammie for running around with us, capturing the pickle shots, chest bumps, and everything in between. You are the best!

I absolutely LOVED working with Ashta! She was quick to respond when I inquired about my date, gave me a TON of vendor recommendations (most of which I ended up booking for my big day) and most importantly, made us feel like we were her only clients (even though she is BOOKED & BUSY!). We started off with an engagement photo session (that was included in the price of our wedding day package) and I continued to receive constant communication from her from that time up until the wedding day. She is transparent, thoughtful, and absolutely hilarious! She made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera and took some of the most breathtaking photos I have ever seen. I not only consider her my wedding photographer, but also a friend. I will make the drive back home every time just so SHE can be the one to take our photos. Thank you, Ashta!

My husband and I booked Ashta for our HHI wedding in September after she came highly recommended by our wedding planner, Delaney Schneider. Ashta was immediately so excited and involved in our wedding planning that it helped take stress off our shoulders that we knew we had our photographer picked! I was impressed with how professional and consistently involved she was throughout our year+ of planning. As a destination wedding, she went out of her way to ensure we still had engagement pictures completed during the very short time we had to visit HHI (without extra charge I may add, outside of booking her for wedding). She also provided numerous local vendor recommendations that we ended up going with and were nothing short of perfection. I appreciated how hands on she was with planning our timeline and helping coordinate with other vendors so that it was one less thing I had to worry about on the week/day of. On our wedding day, Ashta showed up early, prepared, and ready to go to capture our day! We never felt rushed and I feel like she was able to capture my bridal party, husband, and I so genuinely. Nothing ever felt forced. The day after our wedding, I woke up to an email from her with around 20+ already edited and ready to go preview photos! Those are still some of my favorite photos from the entire album and it was great to have them to share almost immediately. The rest of the album arrived a very short 4ish weeks later which was sooner than quoted. We are so happy with how the photos turned out and are constantly getting compliments about the photos and our photographer. We wouldn't change a thing and can't thank Ashta enough for the lifelong memories she provided us with! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

There are so many words to say about how much we adored Ashta. She made us so comfortable in front of the camera, like she had been our friend for years. She worked so hard to make sure we were in the perfect lighting with the perfect pose. Getting 30 sneak peek preview pictures 24 hours after our wedding is just such an unbelievably nice service that she offers. We can't wait to see the rest. Her second shooter Samme was fantastic with our groomsmen and big family. Ashta is a wedding vendor that we want to stay in touch with forever.

Ashta was such a great person to work with. We had our engagement session with her and cannot wait for our wedding photos! She was super flexible (let us change locations literally the day before) and made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera. I care a lot about editing style and her photos were flawless!

Ashta is an amazing person and photographer! My big day wouldn’t have been perfectly-complete without her! The pictures that she took - my husband and I will cherish forever. Don’t think twice about booking with Ashta!

Ashta is truly amazing! She is super easy to work with and her photos come out stunning. Out of all the engagement photos we had done, I honestly can't pick a favorite! I am so excited to work with her on our wedding day and I already know she will do a great job.

Ashta was amazing!! She was so easy to work with and did a really good job of making us feel comfortable while taking photos. She was so quick to get us sneak peak photos and we loved them all. We loved her style and it was the perfect mix of candid and the portrait photos.

Ashta was incredible to work with! I truly enjoyed having her as part of our wedding. The prep calls leading up the wedding made me feel at ease. During the wedding day, she was coordinating my very large family and one year old niece with ease. More importantly, our photos turned out beautifully. Cannot recommend her enough!

Ashta and her team were very professional and helped us out tremendously through not only the wedding but the planning process. I had no clue what I was doing when planning my small backyard wedding, but she helped me talk it through and gave many great vendor recommendations. We are so pleased with the experience she created for us and the pictures we now have forever!

Ashta was an amazing wedding photographer. My husband and I are not the most photogenic and typically are not very comfortable in front of the camera. Ashta helped make us feel comfortable and made the whole process smooth. It was always super easy to get ahold of Ashta whenever we needed anything wedding related. She was also great about helping us come up with a timeline for our wedding day, and she helped keep us on track throughout the day. I would 100% book with Ashta again, the pictures turned out beautiful, and she was so much fun to work with!

Veronica L

8/02/2022

Ashta was amazing - she made us feel so comfortable, gave us great direction, and so our photos are fantastic. I asked for largely candid shots of the wedding guests and she also seriously delivered on that, giving us some incredible dance floor memories to have forever! She is kind, patient, and communicative; I couldn't recommend her more.

Ashta is INCREDIBLE! She is such a sweet and wonderful presence to be around, and the photos are UNREAL. I am so glad that we chose Ashta and that we will have these beautiful photos to share for the years to come!

Ashta was amazing!! She made our day so special and I would highly recommend her for any photography! Throughout the whole day she made not only us feel comfortable for our bridal party and family as well. She was very professional and we loved all the poses she recommended for us. At the end of the night we got to take home some polaroid pictures, which was so special to us. Within a few days we got a sneak peak of our pictures! Once, we got our full album we were blown away! The pictures are absolutely gorgeous and we have gotten so many compliments!! We hope we get the opportunity to work with her again soon! :)

Ashta Harler did an amazing job with the pictures she took for my wedding!! My wife and I booked her for our engagement photos and they turned out amazing so we booked her for the wedding. She is very knowledge and is very easy and fun to work with. If you are looking for a great photographer Ashta is the one. She allowed my wife and I to pose in the ways we wanted and if she had a pose that would look better she would tells us and every time the pictures came out amazing. She is truly a great person, amazing photographer, and you can trust her to capture all the great moments.

Ashta was an excellent choice for our elopement ceremony. We were crazily last minute to book our photographer that I thought we would not find one 1 week before our small ceremony, but Ashta was so incredibly flexible with everything and helped me so much just by going through all the details with me.she was amazing and made me feel relaxed and comfortable. 1000% recommend!!

If you are looking for a wedding photography to capture every special moment, you need to hire Ashta Harler Photography! Ashta was amazing from beginning to end. She let us add in special moments. I decided to do a first look with my female family members and the picture makes me want to cry. She also captured the best moments throughout the wedding and afterwards! My husband and I are grateful for hiring Ashta as our wedding photographer! After 3 months, we are still looking in awe at the pictures!!

Ashta is such a beautiful person! Fun and funny yet professional and right on task. We booked her from another state and will never regret our decision. Our wedding photos are beautiful and we plan to use her again when we come back for vacation for family pictures.

We were in South Carolina and my fiancé proposed! I knew I wanted my engagement photos in Hilton Head and she messaged me back, IMMEDIATELY and met us the next day before we left! We had such an amazing time with her that we told her on the spot we wanted her to be our wedding photographer no matter where we had it! We picked our date, and secured my photographer before anything else and I cannot wait to work with her again on 10.1.22! Ashta is your GO TO GIRL! She made sure we were comfortable, happy, and had given us all the advice and been a huge part of our wedding planning!

We loved working with Ashta! She photographed our vow renewal ceremony 11/20/2021 and was so easy to work with. She asked for a list of the photos we’d want to save time after the ceremony. She’s dependable and got our photos in the next month. We are very pleased with all photos- she captured our family moments so perfectly!

Brianne Z

We are from South Florida and were completely stressed about finding a photographer out of state for our wedding in Savannah. I can’t even begin to tell you how lucky we were to have Ashta! She is professional, organized, and an AMAZING photographer. It also helps that she’s super funny and personable. I personally hate taking pictures and am not the most photogenic person, but our pictures came out amazing and I love them all! I would recommend her a million times over. Thank you Ashta!!!

Karina G

Such an amazing photographer! I’d had many photoshoots done, family ones, solo ones, but this was the best by far! Ashta made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable behind the camera! She was honest if a pose was not flattering and joked with us during the whole shoot! I think that’s what made our photos look so real and raw because those smiles and laughs were genuine. I highly recommend Ashta as a photographer, you’ll have such a great experience and even greater photos to follow! The best best best experience with her!

We had the great fortune to meet Ashta Harler during the planning process of our wedding. We explained that we were more concerned about quality over quantity in photography. We met with a number of vendors, many of which showed us cookie cutter poses and charged a lot of money. Ashta is professional, does her homework ahead, is calm and very flexible. She went to our venue ahead to see the best places for pictures. She did not pull us away from our reception to get a picture. She was organized to make sure we got the shots that were important. Then she captured so many shots that we have come to fall in love with. If you need someone who is professional, organized but who can think outside the box, definitely speak with Ashta. You will not be sorry. We are thrilled with our pictures !!!

Ashta was very timely, professional and prepared for our engagement photo shoot. She also was very personable, energetic and had a relaxed vibe so we felt comfortable. She made the shoot so easy with her recommendations, posing and instructions. The whole experience felt easy! The pictures were gorgeous! I would highly recommend her!

Ashta came very prepared with a hardworking attitude. She is friendly with everyone around her and helps them feel comfortable under stressful situations.
