Having Ashlee capture our wedding day was one of best decisions I made. The videos came out beautiful and captured our love so perfectly. I appreciated how Ashlee and the second shooter both captured the day as it was and did not pose any of the shots. She is extremely organized, answers quickly, and professional. Thank you so much Ashlee for your incredible talent, I will treasure our wedding videos forever!

Ashlee is AMAZING!!! We hired her for our wedding video and we’re beyond thrilled with the entire process start to finish. She is awesome to work with, thorough, organized, and an artist!!! Would absolutely recommend to anyone and everyone!!
Ashlee is simply wonderful. I have been looking forward to working with her for so so long on my wedding day. I’ve worked alongside her at weddings before, so I knew how she worked and it was exactly the style I was looking for. She was one of the first vendors, after my venue and photographer, that I booked!! Knowing she also works seamlessly with other vendors set my mind at ease. She’s a fun, loving, communicative and easy going person who knows how to make magic with film. She was a great supporter throughout my wedding journey and especially on our wedding day... and I feel so very lucky she was the one to video our long awaited event!!! I have no regrets about Ashlee. I’m so very sad our big day is over already but I am BEYOND excited to see our video when it’s ready. I just know it will be so special and I can’t wait to watch it for all the years to come ❤️Thank you so so much for all that you have done for us!!!
My husband and I are in awe of our wedding film. We both cried and so did everyone we showed it to. It is truly beautiful! Ashley was easy to book and seamless to communicate with. She provides so much helpful information for planning a wedding outside of the wedding film. Highly recommend!
Ashlee was so wonderful as our wedding videographer! She was incredibly responsive from the start and also flexible when our plan for the day was a little bit up in the air. She was timely and , made us all feel very comfortable (which is hard because its human nature to feel uncomfortable when being filmed!). She was professional and worked amazingly with our photographer to capture our day in a way I could only have dreamed of! The final product says it all, everyone I have shown our film to has expressed its the perfect encapsulation of the day. We are so thankful for all her hard work on our video and we will have the memories to show our future family! Thank you again Ashlee!
Ashlee is the best! My husband and I were very much on the fence over hiring a videographer for our wedding. When you’re already spending so much money, it’s tough to add on any additional costs. Ashlee’s pricing is fair and worth every penny. Ashlee did a great job blending in at the wedding, no one even noticed they were being filmed and were surprised to see themselves in the video. We truly LOVE our wedding video. Everyone we’ve shown it to has gotten teary eyed watching it. I highly recommend Ashlee for your special day and if you’re on the fence on whether to do a video at all, DO IT! It’s my favorite memento from our wedding.
Highly recommend! We were on the fence about whether or not to hire a videographer for our small private ceremony, but OMG I am so happy we did! Ashlee was amazing to work with and I was super happy with her work. Don't hesitate - BOOK HER NOW!
We loved working with Ashlee! She really took the time to get to know my husband and I through the planning process and created a beautiful film that captured our big day from start-finish. We are so happy to made the investment in a video that we can share with friends and family who couldn't travel due to COVID, and that we can look back on it whenever we want. We would highly recommend Still Water!
Ashlee and Still Water was one of the best decisions Dave and I made related to our wedding! Ashlee was a calming presence on our wedding day, working seamlessly with our photographers. And the final product…oh my goodness. It truly made us relive the day! And not just for us but for our loved ones…my Dad says he watches it every day! Highly highly recommend hiring a videographer, and go with the best…Still Water!!
We brought Ashlee on last minute for our wedding due to us having to replan from Covid. Ashlee was really great to work with, we only wish we had more time to work with her! We wanted a short highlight reel and had some specific requests which she made sure to make happen. Originally, we didn't want the traditional video coverage of our ceremony. Ashlee managed to still record the whole thing so when we changed our mind after the wedding, she was able to provide an edited copy of the ceremony which was amazing. We strongly recommend Ashlee for any of your videography needs! - Bethany and Tony
If you’re looking for a great videographer, look no further! Ashlee was responsive, easy to work with, and our wedding film turned out beautifully (with a quick turnaround time). We received so many compliments the day of our wedding because of the way Ashlee blended right into the background and worked so well with our photographer. We had to make a couple of changes due to Covid-19 and Ashlee was both understanding and flexible, making our lives that much easier. I highly recommended Still Water Wedding Films for any couple looking for a videographer. You won’t regret choosing to work with Ashlee.
Ashlee is extremely professional and goes above and beyond to capture every special moment; I can't wait to see our video and re-live it all over again, especially the parts I missed, due to being caught up. I would definitely recommend her for your special day! I am grateful that she was available within a week's notice of the wedding, as I had made a very last minute decision to go with a videographer and I'm so glad I did! Thanks again for all of your hard work!
Ashlee was so great to work with for the entire process. She was quick to respond to all of my emails and made planning very easy. The video she gave us was absolutely amazing! The quality is outstanding and her 13 minute highlight film perfectly captured all of my favorite elements of the day. She provided helpful cues during the pictures to ensure the video would come out well too. During the ceremony and reception Ashlee and her equipment blended into the background but still managed to capture all of my favorite moments from the day. I absolutely cannot recommend Ashlee enough to anyone looking for a videographer!
Disappointed is an understatement. When planning our wedding I was looking for someone reliable to capture one of the most important days of our lives. I had booked Still Water Productions months before my wedding. About a week or so before I reached out to confirm we were all set and I am so glad I did. By mistake, Ashlee had overbooked herself for another wedding that day leaving me with no one. Last minute she scrambled to have someone else cover my wedding day. The day of my wedding came and a complete stranger was recording and knew nothing about us or what we were looking for. Finally, I got around to watching my video tonight and the editing is SO BAD I could cry. 1. I can’t believe I paid a good amount of money for this and 2. Scenes were repeated out of order and cut out at random times. While my father is walking me down the aisle the camera is recording the front row of guests. The moment I had always dreamed of having on film was completely ruined. The video has no natural flow and the footage of the reception is about 10 minutes of the same group of people dancing being recorded. You would think it was one of them who got married... horrible. Just simply horrible, I have no words. Im grateful to have something to watch from my wedding day, although it’s very comical. Not the reaction I hoped. I thought my wedding video would bring me happy tears and not actual sad ones. I hope this unfortunate series never happens to another couple again!
Ashlee was absolutely wonderful to work with. Any questions I had were answered and she always responded promptly. She is super friendly and I'm so glad we had her there to capture our special day! I'm looking forward to seeing the final product!
My husband and I are so grateful to have had Ashlee be the videographer of our wedding. Ashlee was awesome from the very beginning and quickly responded to our inquiry and any questions we had. She was kind enough to meet with me a few days prior to the wedding to review our plan and she helped ease my bridal nerves and worries. On the day of our wedding she was so professional and caring that you hardly realized she was there videoing every detail. We just received our wedding video teaser and I cried when I first watched it. Ashlee was able to capture the love, happiness and laughter of our special day. I have watched our teaser every day since we got it and can’t wait for our full length video. Thank you Ashlee for capturing our wedding day so perfectly!
Ashlee is amazing. I am absolutely obsessed with my wedding trailer and video . She is very personal and professional. Ashlee provides everything and more to make your video and day so special. You will not go wrong if you hire her.
Ashlee was so professional and prompt in all of her responses pre-wedding and on the wedding day. At first we were not planning to have a videographer, and Ashlee’s flexible packages sold us to what we didn’t think was possible! She was so stealth at the wedding that we barely noticed her presence too! We LOVE the final product and the memories will now last forever! Thank you!
Ashlee worked so hard for our special day, and caught some of the best moments of our wedding. I'm so grateful to have the footage we do. She rolled with some punches that day with grace and it was definitely worth it to add extra time to have her film more.
Ashleigh was amazing and so easy to work with, she was professional and knew exactly how to capture the perfect moments. I would hire her again if my husband let me plan another beach wedding .
Ashleigh did the video for both of my children's weddings and I couldn't be happier with the results. She was prompt, professional and best of all you didn't even know she was there most of the time. She worked well with both photographers and the finished product was something we will treasure forever. I highly recommend her.
We are so so so grateful for Ashlee! She was so wonderful to work with on our wedding day, and came through in a pinch when our photographer had to go home a little early sick. She was so fun, professional, and made us feel affirmed in the creative decisions we made for our day. Before our photographer had to leave, we commented on how well Ashlee and him seamlessly worked together (so well we thought they had worked together before, but nope!). Besides working well with our photographer, she also perfectly interacted with our other vendors, and our wild families and friends. We would work with Ashlee again in a heartbeat.
Incredible! Ashleigh was professional and prompt and worked so well with the other vendors on our special day! I would book her again a thousand times if I could ♥️
Ashlee surpassed our expectations. We would highly recommend anyone in the area using her for their wedding videographer. She was so personable, fast to respond to emails , organized , and made wedding planning so easy. Our wedding teaser and video was complete so quickly we were so lucky. She really captured our day with ease and made our video keepsake so special. We are so grateful for all of her work. Please book her you won’t regret it.
Ashlee was such a delight to work with. She was fun and made my fiance and I feel very comfortable when shooting our love story video. I love her creative style and willingness to work with us. Ashlee definitely has an eye for videography. I 100% recommend to hire her as a videographer. The love story video that she captured for us was beyond perfect!!! thank you again Ashlee!!!
Ashlee had just begun her business when I met her and booked her a year out from our wedding. Throughout the entire process she was professional, engaged and listened to my requests as well as spending time with me to get to know my husband and I. Ashlee maintained constant contact and presented me and my husband with the most incredible videos from our wedding. She was on time and incredibly professional. If you want someone who is going to be an incredible team player and compile a gorgeous video you need to call Ashlee. We couldn't be happier with the results and getting to know her so well.

I can have the pleasure of saying that, I have seen Ashlee in action for TWO weddings, and I am so proud to say that Ashlee does an absolutely AMAZING JOB!I was able to meet Ashlee at a wedding expo about a year before our wedding when she started, filled with excitement, I shared the information with my cousin Dana, in Albany who was also getting married and I was her MOH. Ashlee was able to capture my cousins wedding PERFECTLY and then came ours a few months later and she made me feel just as special! She was able to capture the key moments and any fear that I had after our wedding, or hope of "I hope she got that" instantly went away! Every teaser, every trailer, every cinematic, every raw footage I saw of mine and my cousins wedding I was BLOWN away! If you want to do yourself a favor, book Ashlee to be your videographer for your big day! She is so nice to work with, remains behind the scenes, and walks you along the process with updates and all until you get your footage.
Ashlee, thank you for being so professional and amazing. You took your time on our footage, and it all really surpassed our expectations! You are THE BEST! Can't wait to film with you at our SISTERs wedding in JUNE!!
Awesome company to work with Ashlee was amazing and super sweet and made the day go smooth
We used ashlee as our videographer for our August wedding, and she was amazing. Made sure to answer any questions we had and went above and beyond to help us any way she could. We just got our video back and it's beautiful.
My video came out amazing! I couldn’t believe the wonderful work she does!!! And very sweet. I was in love!! The memories will last a life time!
Working with Ashlee was fantastic! She was incredibly friendly and easy to communicate with. She made everything very simple and stress-free by sending us a form to fill out a couple of weeks before the wedding and then calling us for a brief chat to get an idea of what we wanted and what types of music we liked. On the day of the wedding, she arrived early and was setting up all of the cameras and filming detail shots before we even got there. She was able to capture so many different angles of every aspect of our day, and we are so happy with how the video came out. We would recommend Ashlee to anyone looking for reasonably priced, high quality video!
Ashlee was amazing!! She did such an amazing job and was so awesome to work with!! One of my favorite vendors I hired!! Could of asked for anything better!!
I'm very glad to have worked with Ashlee to capture our wedding day. We had a lot of speaking components to our ceremony and reception, so we wanted someone affordable who can capture all that in a simple way. Ashlee's timeline style video did just that for us, and she went out of her way to add in some extra montage of clips from throughout the day to really give it a complete feel.
She was easy to work with, very responsive and proactive. She coordinated directly with our DJ for sound needs, and I was impressed with the number of different angles she was able to capture, with just a team of one!
I know there are a lot of couples getting married who are on the fence about videography, and I think Ashlee is perfect for them because she will capture the day at an affordable price. If video is your #1 priority and you're looking for the jaw dropping, drone footage-including video, it's probably not the best match (for now! as I hope her business is very successful and grows rapidly!).
We received our full video about two months after the wedding, and there was one section the sound was hard to hear and she went back and fixed it for us. I also liked her style in matching music to the footage, and her text inserts were modern and to our liking as well.
Overall, I'm very happy with Still Water and Ashlee, and would definitely recommend them!!
Communicating with Ashlee throughout the whole wedding process was so easy! I live in a different state than her, and we didn't even meet until my wedding day, but through all of our phone calls, texts and emails, I had no doubt in my mind that I made the right decision.
The day of my wedding, Ashlee worked amazingly with my photographer and was great at communicating to me and my bridal party what she needed us to do. Our video came less than two months after the wedding!!! and it was more than what we could have asked for. We are SO happy that we decided to have a videographer, and so grateful that Ashlee was as great as she is. Thank you Ashlee!!!
Ashlee was extremely professional and went above and beyond. I cant wait to see the finished product.
We decided to hire a videographer about a month before our wedding and were SO lucky that Ashlee was available! She was so easy to work with, very organized and responsive, and had a great set up at our wedding. We had a very religious wedding and gave her a long list of things to watch for, but she did a great job in keeping up with all of it! We loved our teaser video and are slowly watching our full video, reliving our big day. She was able to get some great moments that we would have missed had she not been there. I would highly recommend Ashlee!
Ashlee was great!! So friendly and easy to work with!! She was a pleasure to talk with before and the day of my wedding!! Thank you Ashlee you were amazing!❤️
Where do I even begin! Ashlee was so easy to work with. She was relaxed and focused from the get-go which made me feel so at ease (even as we waited an hour for my dress to arrive to me and were late because of that haha). I never once had to ask if she could do something for me because she was already just doing it! As a bride it’s a huge relief to have responsible, smart, funny people working so hard behind the scenes for you and that’s exactly what you get by hiring Ashlee. Thank you for everything!!! You made my day so extra special and I hope we work together again soon!! XO B
