Ashley Cole was nothing short of wonderful to work with! From the very beginning, she was very communicative and easy to get a hold of. The booking process was simple and quick. I appreciated the variety of packages available and the flexibility to add extra hours and a second photographer. As far as the quality of the photos themselves, I was blown away!! They were better than I ever imagined. She perfectly captured special moments whether they were sweet moments or funny times. She has an elite level of photography ability. She went above and beyond to make my day feel special. I also appreciated her editing skills to bring a photo to life, something a lot of other photographers lacked when I was first looking around for a wedding photographer. To be honest, the picture portion of the day was a part I wasn’t looking forward to very much, but she made the process fun and easy. All throughout the booking, planning, execution, and delivery of the photos she was very detailed and thorough making sure no detail went unnoticed, which is again something I really appreciate. I highly suggest booking her as she is easy to work with and is a wonderful, bubbly soul.

Where do I even begin? I first reached out to Ashley in May or June, hoping to book a fall session with me and my dog, Homer — and from that very first interaction, she set the tone for what kind of photographer (and person) she is.

As I took my time nailing down a date, Ashley was the perfect balance of patient and proactive. She followed up in just the right way — never pushy, but genuinely invested in making sure I got on her calendar before her schedule filled up. That kind of thoughtful nudge? It made all the difference.

Before we even stepped in front of her camera, her intake process completely won me over. Her forms are carefully crafted and make it immediately clear that Ashley doesn’t just have a passion for photography — she has a passion for people. She takes the time to understand who you are, and that shows in her work. She knows that one size never fits all, and that’s evident not only in her portfolio, but in the deeply personal experience she creates for every single client.

On the day of the session, everything came together beautifully. She chose the location herself, knowing Homer could be anxious and hard to capture — and it was the perfect call. She’d also previewed my two outfit options in advance, and honestly, both looked stunning in the final photos. She just knows how to bring out the best in her subjects.

Those photos have since become some of the most treasured things I own. I lost my little Homer just a few months after our session, and I am so grateful I have these images to hold onto forever. I used them for my first-ever holiday card this year, and the response was overwhelming.

And I’ll add this: Ashley is not just my photographer — she’s my friend and neighbor. Hiring someone that close to you can feel like a risk, but working with her was an absolute reminder of why she’s both. She showed up for me with the same care and professionalism she brings to every client, and somehow made something that already felt personal feel even more so.

Ashley isn’t just an exceptionally talented photographer — she’s someone who genuinely cares. I could not more highly recommend her!

We could not have asked for a better photographer!!! Having a good photographer was so important for us, but we didn’t know that we had hit the literal jackpot!!! Not only are the photos GORGEOUS, but we felt so loved and celebrated on our day and leading up to it. We could tell Ashley was prepared and so focused on our day, not only taking photos, but helping us stay on time in the kindest ways possible. From beginning to end, Ashley was so wonderful to work with. In our meetings leading up to the wedding she listened to all of our ideas and helped make them a reality. When looking back through our photos, she took so many photos of memories we would not have if it were not for her attentiveness. Ashley is a MUST for your wedding!!!

Our mini couples shoot from start to finish with Ashley was absolutely incredible! The communication leading up to the shoot was fast, clear, and super helpful—every question was answered quickly, and it made planning effortless. Ashley is truly the ultimate hype girl—so full of energy, positivity, and encouragement. She knew exactly how to direct us in a way that felt natural, and she cheered us on every step of the way. The turnaround time was so fast! We were blown away by how quickly we received our gallery—and the photos were STUNNING. We can't recommend her enough—if you're looking for a photographer who’s professional, passionate, and makes you feel like a queen, she’s the one!
