Celebrating your story

Digital and

ohio based Destination and local wedding photographer

"All your life you're yellow. Then one day you brush up against something
blue, the barest touch, and now the rest of your life is green."

Perhaps this is what they meant with the tradition of "Something Blue."

My photography style is about romanticizing the in between moments by documenting raw emotion, instant reactions, and seeking out strong connections. I aim to be a fly on the wall for your most impactful days and elevate the relaxing and mundane ones alongside. All of this matters -- the little things got us here and the big things will take us to dreams that force us to create and celebrate. I have been photographing destination and local weddings for over ten years and it feels like I'm just getting started loving you all. Give me your hearts and I'll give you, you.


I have been putting my decade of expertise into each and every one of you, from your morning mimosa to those late night exits. Wedding days can be fleeting and you deserve someone who builds slow moments and quick thinking into the timeline. When it's all said and done, your photos will gift you the ability to be right back in those memories and reliving the joys from the day it became the two of you, forever.

what's it like?

Ashley lets her pictures speak for themselves, and knew exactly how to capture every special moment. She is so just kind and fun to work with! I never felt rushed or pressured when getting our pictures taken. She went above and beyond for us and was truthfully my favorite vendor to work with. The day flowed so well with her there to guide and direct my husband and I, as well as our wedding party and family. She was able to help with the timeline by suggesting different solutions to make sure I got some of the pictures I wanted, provide direction and guidance with a group of people she just met, and capture such sweet and detailed photos. I still get so many compliments about how great our pictures turned out, and am so so so happy she was a part of our special day. 

She quickly became a dear friend, and made us both feel so beautiful and confident in a situation that you would usually expect to feel nervous or uncomfortable in. When booking, I put more emphasis on our couple photos and didn't care much about the rest, but I keep finding myself looking back on our candid and reception photos, reminiscing on what a wonderful day we had and how genuinely happy everyone was. Anyone can take photos, but the way Ashley is able to capture the moment and create a memory fixed in time is unlike anything I have ever seen before. I am so thankful that I have such amazing photos to treasure the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend her enough.

with all my love, thank you

Getting to know your friends and family, missing them like I would miss my own when it's all said and done, being trusted with the deepest parts of you and your partner - has been an absolute privilege that I hope to continue my entire career.
