I cannot say enough amazing things about Ashley! As two people who are so awkward in front of the camera, she makes you feel so comfortable. Her work is absolutely stunning and she is such a joy to work with. From our engagement photos, to our wedding, to our wedding reception, Ashley’s photos exceeded our expectations. Every detail was captured perfectly and she is so experienced, she is not just a photographer. She is your barista, hype girl, errand runner, and florist (one of her many hidden talents). Also, as someone who dislikes photos of themselves, I can honestly say I liked every single photo from our wedding gallery. Every single one. Just do yourself a favor, look no further and book Ashley.

Ashley was absolutely wonderful! Everything was a breeze with her. From the moment we booked her, I never once had to worry about reaching out for updates or check-ins before the wedding. She always checked in leading up to our big day to give updates, ask questions, and finalize details. I realized this was so nice and convenient, because not every vendor did that and it really took some of the stress and worry off when preparing for the big day. I am 110% satisfied in choosing her to capture our wedding! I was looking for light and airy style photos, but not heavily filtered like some other styles I’ve seen. 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. Thank you Ashley!

Ashley was our wedding photographer and I can’t recommend her enough. She was fantastic to have as such an important part of our big day. We did an engagement shoot nine months before the wedding and she was so much fun. She’s so sweet and easy to get along with. We received our engagement pictures back and were amazed. Fast forward to our wedding and we were even more grateful to have her. There were a couple hiccups with getting all of our decor there early enough for pictures, but she took it all in stride and was willing to be flexible and still was able to get all of the pictures we wanted. The weather was also a little questionable and we weren’t sure if we would be able to do pictures outside like planned, but Ashley did an amazing job with what she had to work with and was still able to get beautiful pictures. I can’t recommend Ashley enough to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding photographer!
Harry + Nicole
Ashley came through when our original photographer was double booked. Despite the last-minute planning, she was so accommodating, professional, and most importantly excellent at her job. During our engagement session, her talent knew exactly where to take the photos. She works so well with natrual light, that I almost regret getting married in November! She did an amazing job with the lighting even though our whole ceremony and reception was indoors in darker venues. Her photo styles are classic and timeless, and she is incredibly efficient but detailed with her work. Her talent, professionalism, and kind & relaxed composure makes her a great recommendation for anyone. Thank you Ashley for your kindness and hard working efforts for our special day!! You are a gem :)
Where do I even start? Ashley was beyond amazing in every aspect of our engagement/wedding photos. She went above and beyond to capture our day so perfectly. Every single person who sees our wedding photos is blown away by how incredible they are, and the same with our engagement pictures! You know they are amazing when you run out of space in your home to fit another wedding or engagement photo! Ashley had a major family emergency the day before our wedding. She handled it with such grace and strength. She did everything with a smile on her face, never once complained, and I admire her so much for that. Thank you Ashley for making me feel beyond incredible on our wedding day and doing such a fabulous job! You will always be my #1 choice for any type of photos. I praise God for your incredible gift!
Kierstan + Garrison
Ashley was incredible! She was professional and so thoughtful! It was so comfortable having her shoot our wedding, even though we didn't get to meet her in person until day of, it felt like we had known her for years. She captured every moment (and candids of our down time that were so sweet) and every picture was beautiful. I would recommend her to every person!
Callie + Brett
Ashley was our wedding photographer and truly went
above and BEYOND to make not only our pictures flawless but our whole day fun, relaxed and as perfect as possible. From engagement pictures in the wind and hail that can only be found in Ohio to the flower catastrophe the day of the wedding, Ashley was always ready to make anything work. She has a fun personality, feels instantly like an old friend and takes the most beautiful photos to capture each moment of your day. Could not recommend her enough, our wedding pictures are better than I ever hoped.
Jessie + Mike
Ashley is an absolute ROCKSTAR! Not only is she a phenomenal, talented, photographer but she is so personable and easy to work with. She made my wedding photos a dream come true. Do yourself a favor, and hire her for your upcoming wedding!
Brooke + Kevin
I am so amazed with how our wedding photos turned out. I could not have asked for a more perfect capturing of our day and of our love. Ashley truly got us and all that we envisioned. 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.
Allison + Lauren
Ashley was hands down, our favorite vendor we booked for our wedding! The thing about Ashley is, she is so calm and easy going. Send her to the wrong venue the morning of the wedding? Not even phased! Insane winds? She’ll still get the shot! Both our engagement and wedding photos are so classy and timeless! I’m genuinely obsessed with her editing style. Also, my husband and I are not models but she’s really great at gently directing you without making you feel awkward. She’s also great at reining in large families and unruly dogs for photos!!! I highly recommend bringing Ashley on to capture your day!
Veronica + Mike
I cannot say enough about Ashley. She was truly an amazing person to work with. She made our wedding less stressful and went above and beyond of not only taking photos, but helping with details of our wedding. She captured every moment and every detail of our wedding. Ashley was very friendly and professional, it was like we have known her forever. Ashley is truly an artist and loves what she does. She was very easy to work, great to talk to and very responsive and pays attention to every detail. I highly recommend Ashley not only for weddings, but for any occasion that you may be planning. She will not disappoint!
Diane + John
Ashley was fabulous!! She photographed our engagement and wedding and we absolutely love our photos! She did a great job of helping us plan our special day and make sure everything went smoothly. I would totally recommend her! We had a great experience!
Alexa + Travis
I really can't recommend using Ashley enough! It's important to connect with your vendors on an energy level and Ashley was the best vibe for my husband and I on our day (and during our engagement shoot!) She let us love on each other, helped us look our best, and made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. All our friends and family are OBSESSED with our photos!
Lucy + Ted
I really can’t say enough good things about Ashley’s service. Photography was the most important vendor to me, so I took my time deciding, but once I saw her work it was an easy decision. She made me and my husband feel at ease and comfortable from the very beginning. She was flexible when it started to rain, no I’m sorry POURED, on our wedding day. And even came up with a perfect solution to getting the first look outside. She’s professional when dealing with many family members during busy wedding photos, and I got many compliments on the photos. Trust me, out of all the decisions you have to make when planning your wedding. Let this be an easy one!!
Maura + Kevin
Ashley was our wedding photographer -- She was great to work with and beautifully captured our big day. We absolutely love our wedding and engagement photos!
Christine + Patrick
We loved everything about our experience with Ashley. She truly captured our day so beautifully. Ashley was prompt and always communicated timely. During the wedding day, she listens to my ideas but also brought great direction herself for our photos. She had a great balance of posey photos and more natural interaction photos. It was an extremely sunny day; so I was worried about the lighting. But she did fantastic and really made it so the sun worked in our favor. The lighting and editing in our photos are so amazing and we couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Jess + Kyle
Ashley is AMAZING. She was our wedding photographer and I am so grateful I found her while surfing the web one day. Not only will she capture beautiful photos that you'll want to hang on every wall in your house (literally everywhere), she is SO supportive and such a necessity on your wedding day. From bustling my wedding gown when no one else knew how to bringing me appetizers that I could shove in my mouth 5 minutes before my ceremony starts - SHE DOES IT ALL. Our day could not have been so perfect and flawless without Ashley. I am so incredibly happy with the quality of our engagement and wedding photos, and I am so thankful to have also made a friend in the process. If you're debating on which photographer to use for your big day, do yourself a favor and use Ashley!
Aubrey + Grant
Stop what you're doing and book Ashley immediately for your wedding photography needs. Ashley is so personable, helpful, talented, and efficient. She made us feel so comfortable right away during our engagement session that by the time our wedding day arrived, we felt confident in our poses and we got some AMAZING photos that fit exactly the vibe we were going for. Ashley also went above and beyond for us - even bustled my dress, gave me a fan when I sweating... she is just so prepared for it all. Our day was made complete with Ashley as our photographer and we are so grateful she chose to work with us.
Elisabeth + Andy
We have been so blessed to have Ashley for all of our photography needs. She went out of her way to make sure we had the best engagement photos, and even did more than one session to ensure that we received the best shots possible!! By no means are we models, and Ashley helped to make us feel so relaxed and comfortable. She knew exactly what she wanted out of each shot and was able to capture some of the best candid work I have seen. She was more than open to suggestion and all of our photos came out beautifully. Our wedding photos are stunning and we could not have been more pleased with them. She spent the entire day with us and did not miss a moment. She was extremely quick to respond and was able to answer all of our questions. My husband and I highly recommend her work and will definitely be using her for all of our special moments to come.
Sarah + Trenton
Ashley is the absolute sweetest and her work is amazing! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She captured everything on our wedding day perfectly down to the smallest details. I could not recommend her more!
Amanda + Chris
There is no other way to describe Ashley's work other than perfect. We are so incredibly happy with not only our wedding pictures but all the engagement pictures she took of us as well. She is one person who really gets to know your relationship from a deeper level in order to connect with you to get the perfect shot. She goes above and beyond to help you and is literally down to try whatever shot you are thinking of. She knows exactly where to place you and how the photograph should look (which was especially nice for people as awkward as my husband and I). She is beyond talented, professional and personable and will be the one to keep you calm on your big day. She is quick with changes (as we changed our entire wedding timeline the week before) and can adapt to situations with such grace. We would absolutely recommend Ashley again and again!

I wrote my first letter to you sweet humans in 2021 and it feels so strange coming back for another year end letter here in 2022, dreaming of the experiences waiting for 2023.
2022 was one of the hardest and best years of my life.
I grew so much this year, personally, and I think that truly reflected in my work and what came into focus for me. After experiencing loss in multiple forms, I think it became inherent to anyone, but especially someone specializing in this field, what is most important. And it's simply, this. This moment, right now. It comes, it flees, and it's gone. That is, unless we pause.
In my career it was the year of an epiphany. I found myself this year, in ways prior years had pounded at the door but never entered. I feel so at peace with my work and how I serve those who trust me the most to capture their memories, preventing them from fading away with the erosion of years passing by. I feel more confident every day in my ability and desire to deliver photos that age like wine. What this means to me is that I get to watch you relive your memories endlessly, exactly how they happened, exactly how they felt. I put every bit of my soul into giving images that encapsulate the calm, the chaos, the emotion, the commitment, and above all else -- the joy.
To all the clients who have given me their moments to hold, process, and return in glorious form,
Here's to 2023:
May it create magic in your lives abundantly,
and may I be there to photograph it.
a year in review,
with
you
