Welcome
the approach
Capturing your wedding day through a classic, candid, and heirloom-quality lens, by enhancing the thoughtful experience you have created for you and your guests.
Your wedding day is a team effort!
I’m ALL ABOUT playing well with others (i.e. your vendor team)! I am organized and prepped for all.the.things so that your big day is freak’n fantastic!
the logistics
I am the happy medium between assertive and all smiles. I know when to direct you into a pose or the best lighting. But I also know when to fade into the shadows and let the two of you enjoy special moments all while still capturing everything.
It’s YOUR big day and that’s my number one priority – to capture those memory-making moments that you look back on with pure joy. On the flip side, I know how to tactfully direct family and friends so that we maintain happy energy and stick to the schedule.
being ADAPTABLE
I’m happy to meet you where you are! Is your day going to be a party-the-night-away, exciting event? Great! I'm more than happy to match that kind of energy of the day.
Or are you going to have a low-key, go-with-the-flow, intimate day, intent on staying on the timeline? That's also great! If you have mellow music playing in your getting ready space, I'm not going to come in yelling and ready to bust a dance move. I'm going to match your energy so you feel comfortable.
Either way, I’m here for it! I’m here to GET THINGS DONE!

“Working with Ashley is such a joy! She truly goes over and beyond for her couples. She's so organized, on top of every detail, and ensures that every moment of the day is captured authentically. She's kind, and caring and makes you feel so taken care of. I would recommend her to any couple getting married and wanting a truly fabulous photography experience. Can't wait to work with her again.”

Ready to erase those worries about posing?! During an engagement session not only will we craft beautiful images but I'll guide you through all of my posing tips. Think of it as a trial run for your wedding day portraits.

After your event is complete, we will work together to craft the perfect heirloom album for you to look back on years from the day you both said "I do".

You've thoroughly combed through our website, blog and Instagram feed and you like what you see. So the next step is setting up a time to chat to make sure we're the perfect fit for one another and answer any questions. From there I will build a custom collection that fits your specific need and wants for your wedding weekend.
let's chat
Once your date is officially reserved we'll can start planning and preparing for your big day. I'll send over a Google Drive loaded with resources and everything we need to keep us organized.
prepping begins
Sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. I’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos.
Consider this your "trial run" for your wedding day. We'll have time to go through poses plus get to know each other more.
engagement session
I'll check in about two months before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else we should know about your big day.
Throughout the process, your planner and I will be in close communications.
wedding prep
It's finally here! The day the two of you say "I Do" and dance the night away surrounded by your family and friends. Just know we're excited to celebrate and capture your wedding day. It's going to be awesome.
the big day
The week following your wedding I'll send over a preview gallery with 50+ images. You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery. Once your full gallery is ready I'll also send over details about preserving your images through prints and albums.

“She made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera and captured magical images because of her hard work and dedication! She was punctual, well-organized, and enthusiastic. We will get to cherish these beautiful photos forever and look forward to hiring her again for other occasions in the future.”

"You captured the day and our love so beautifully - thank you so much! Just as important as the final photos, we want to thank you so much for your excitement and kindness throughout our entire day (and during the engagement shoot)! We feel so lucky to have had you with us - you put us at ease through the entire experience."

I am a big fan of engagement sessions for a few reasons. First, they allow you to get comfortable in front of the camera. It takes time for most couples to warm up to being photographed and understand how we pose. Timelines can be pretty tight on weddings days and 30 minutes may be all we have for portraits – which is why I’ve found that wedding day portraits turn out so much better when couples do engagement sessions ahead of time.
Second, you can showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you (and even include pets!). While they’re great for save-the-dates, I’ve taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding.
Unless you’re a model, being photographed probably feels a little awkward.
