MEET ASHLEY
it’s nice to meet you
In 2009, a friend let me play with her 35mm camera. What she’d really handed me was a ticket to my future. Heavy and filled with fresh film, it looked like one of those silver and black antique store finds that would end up next to a globe and a quote about travel on a shelf of your entertainment center. But there must have been something magical about that camera because, from the moment I took hold of it, photography took hold of me.
Today, I tell the elegant wedding day stories of love-struck couples worldwide. With a bottomless passion for travel and a soft, intentional approach to photography that is as romantic as it is timeless, I craft galleries that truly capture the essence of a wedding day.

Fascinated by every glittering detail — from the bride’s smile to the heirloom necklace her grandmother let her borrow — I showcase every facet of a wedding day so you can treasure it for decades.
Whenever I pick up my camera, I strive to create beautiful and emotional images that tell a story and showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the world around them.
My love for photography has brought me everywhere from the beaches of sunny California to the mountains in Oregon. But regardless of where I travel, the Willamette Valley and deep forest of my own slice of heaven will always be my home.

CLASSIC, TIMELESS, ELEGANT
I believe in real moments and chasing sunsets. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together. I believe in images that are itching to be printed, placed in beautiful frames, and hung on walls for years to come.
I believe in powerful love. Above all, I believe that love is a powerful force in the universe, and I want to preserve true love, beauty, light, and all the moments in life.
THE HEART BEHIND WHAT i DO
They weren’t sure if her Grandmother would be able to make the trip to her wedding celebrated. But when she did, it meant the world to them. We were outside shooting some sunset portraits of just the two of them, when her grandmother pulled up in the car that was ready to make the several-hour trip back to take her home. She told her goodbye, with a tear in her eye, and thanked her for coming. A moment later she told me, ” I am so happy you were right there at that moment to capture that.”
Of course, the images of flowers, shoes, and sunset moments between the two of you are special, but when your loved ones are gone I want you to have these moments also. I want you to have these images so you can forever remember the way you felt on that day.
