Ashley and Zac were a dream to work with for our micro wedding. I knew from the first time I spoke with them that they were who I wanted to photograph the event. From the beginni...
ng, it felt like I was talking to friends. Before the wedding, Ashley took so much time sending vendor recommendations, table arrangements, and even ideas for my hair! Without her recommendations (and her Instagram page for inspiration), I would not have had the wedding I had envisioned. Their work is stunning and they made us feel at ease while being in front of the camera. They exude kindness and all of our guests were equally impressed and commented that we made a great choice by having them as our photographers. We look forward to working with them again in the future.
Ashley and Zac are the best team! They are incredibly talented and I'm still pinching myself that we got them as our wedding photographers. They captured our small and intimate wed...
ding in September of 2020 and did an incredible job. They took the extra time to scope out the area of our wedding site the night prior. They discovered a beautiful woodsy area with incredible trees and we felt like we were in a fairy tale on our wedding day. It created a private time for my husband and I which was so intimate and special to us. Navigating our wedding planning in a pandemic was extremely stressful and having Ashley and Zac on our side with every plan change (including locations!!) meant so much to us. We are still getting such positive comments on our wedding photos months later! Absolutely hire this dynamic duo. 5+ Stars.

d they were great at guiding us through different poses, and ensured we got pictures with all of our friends and family; but most importantly they made us feel comfortable! I would recommend the duo to anyone, working with them was the best decision we made! Their work and style of editing is stunning and we are so happy with the turn out. They are amazing at what they do!

e to make the most out of a rainy day during our engagement session! She's great at catching the natural moments that actually represent you as a couple.

Shining Light Photography was amazing! Ashley, the head photographer was great! She took the time to meet with me and my husband right after we got engaged. During that meeting we ...
set a time for our engagement shoot and selected our wedding package from Shining Light Photography. My husband gets really nervous in front of cameras but Ashley did a great job in helping us relax and have fun while taking pictures. She would tell us where to stand, how to stand, and where to look. She really helped us enjoy the moment!
Ashley also took an afternoon to let me take Bridal Portraits before the wedding to give to my parents as wedding gifts. Ashley is so sweet, encouraging and artistic. She has a gift in photography! And did a wonderful job taking photos at our wedding! We loved her and highly recommend her as a photographer!
We LOVED working with Ashley at Shining Light! From our very first meeting, Ashley was very professional, but we could already tell she was going to be very fun to work with. Both ...
our engagement session and our wedding day were so much fun! Ashley really catered to who we were as a couple (making arrangements for us to shoot in the Kentucky Theatre, totally capturing our lightheartedness, etc), and as a result, our experience and our photos were amazing :) I love Ashley's style of photography (a lot of natural lighting and candid moments), and we are so so so pleased with how our photos turned out! Plus Ashley made sure we had a ton of fun shooting them :) The package we purchased included our engagement session, a gorgeous album, a flash drive of all our photos, 5 prints of varying sizes (any photos we wished), as well as 7 hours with a second shooter on our wedding day! We really feel like we hit the jackpot; the package we chose is amazing, but our experience was even better!
You will not regret choosing Shining Light :)
