About

ae photography is a fresh, modern and innovative husband & wife team. our style is non-traditional and our goal is to capture truthful, honest imagery, believing every photo should tell a story--even if you weren't part of it. we document the day and preserve actual moments. we photograph every last detail and then some, knowing full well how much time went into planning each and every one of them. once the day is over the photographs will be the only way to look back at your hard work and see how beautifully it all came together.

we fully believe each and every photo from your wedding should be edited to match the photos that draw you in on the websites, blogs and portfolios and lead you to book that specific photographer. we believe showcasing beautiful work to reel clients in, only to give them an end result of straight-out-of-the-camera files, basic edits or even just a handful of select favorites fully edited is false advertising and not what the client fell in love with and paid for. the editing process, for us, is more than half of the job. we work hard to make each image from your day the best in can possibly be, giving you a photo disc full of magazine worthy moments telling the story of your day.

we like couples who really understand the importance of photography on their wedding day and are willing to think outside the box with us. with ae, you will receive modern, yet timeless photos with a touch of whimsy here and there. we believe it is our duty to stay updated by giving our clients the latest styles & products, forms of communication and photo equipment & editing software.

we are truly honored to be part of every wedding & session we capture. we love growing with our clients; capturing their engagement, wedding, babies and full family portraits. it is such a blessing to work together and do something we are both so passionate about. we started this in 2002 out of pure love for photography and will continue to shoot with the same amount of passion we had in our first year throughout our entire career.

thanks for your interest & we hope to hear from you soon!

I found AE Photography very early on in the wedding planning process and compared every other photographer to them from then on. Even as the details of our wedding changed over our fairly long engagement, I couldn't see anyone else being there except AE. On the day of the wedding, my expectations were met and exceeded. They were very professional and creative. I never worried about what they were going to capture- their style was a perfect match for our wedding. They were beyond flexible with pricing and packages, and I am so thankful to them and my husband for making the price work for our wedding. We don't have the photos back yet, but so far I couldn't be more pleased.

Absolutely loved working with ae photography. Their style was EXACTLY what I was looking for and I couldn't have been any happier with the results. I truthfully don't have a single complaint. Ashely and Eric were very responsive to our wants/needs for our wedding day and were so much fun to work with during our engagement session and on our wedding day. I have recommended ae photography to everyone I have talked to since the wedding and recommend them to anyone looking for a more artful, personal photographic style that captures the special, un-poseable moments from you most special day. Thanks ae!!!!

Eric & Ashley did our engagement pictures and wedding pictures and we were very pleased with the service they gave us. They were very flexible with us and did a great job on all of our pictures. They drove all the way from Illinois to Iowa for our wedding too! A couple years ago we asked if they could take a few snap shots of us and they went above and beyond--they had us go to different sites and took all kinds of pictures for us. They posted a bunch of pictures on their website and edited them all too--They are both very talented and the work they do is incredible--I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting pictures taken. I encourage anyone that reads this to visit their website: www.photographyae.com
