Our experience with Ashley was beyond stellar. Not only did she capture the most beautiful photos of our wedding; she was also a consummate professional, making the crazy transitions of the day a lot less bumpy. She is absolutely worth every penny, and I will recommend her to everyone and anyone I know that is planning a wedding! Thank you, Ashley!! You’re the best!!

The best advice I could give to a bride, is to look through a photographers gallery! That says it all! My husband and I agreed early on that the photographer was THEE most important decision of our wedding! I suddenly became the biggest critic and easily knew what I was looking for! I had to of looked through 100 photographers websites! And I was ECSTATIC when I found Ashley dePencier on Wedding Wire!!!! My husband and I hired her for our wedding this past September and it was the best decision we made! She is professional, flexible, easy going, FUN and you can SEE the excitement she has for photography! She cares about every shot and absolutely captures amazing moments!!! She did our engagement photo shoot in Yosemite and that shoot is to die for! She makes us feel INCREDIBLY comfortable! The pictures from our wedding are out of this world! We would ONLY recommend Ashley for photography, we promise you will LOVE her!!! We are very proud to have her as our photographer and brag about her all the time! We plan to always use Ashley for any photographer needs in life! :)

We had a fantastic experience with Ashley! She did our engagement session as well as complete coverage for our wedding and, between her and her assistant, we could not have asked for better photos! She is extremely thorough, creative with posing, and has the most amazing personality. You just cannot help but love her and crack up a few dozen times along the way! We also met several times to go through the entire wedding timeline and make sure we discussed each shot we wanted. My wedding day was not just a job to Ashley. She knows those moments are precious and fleeting, and pours her heart into capturing every beautiful second. Ashley is a busy girl due to her highly sought-after skill set, but I felt like her only client. That, to a bride, is priceless.

She will be my photographer for life!

Ashley DePencier Photography is absolutely astounding. Ashley is so much fun to work with and makes you feel so comfortable and the session is all about you. She has done more than just capture a smile but a moment. I was fortunate enough to have Ashley not only capture couples photos but capture my proposal. She's easy to work with and is very affordable with an exquisite taste that makes her stand out from other local photographers. There's no one else I'd rather have capture my moments during the process of my wedding than Ashley. She deserves more credit than I could ever say and reviews do not do justice for her amazing work of art. I know I can count on her to take breathtaking photos and would recommend her to everyone looking for a photographer. I can't wait until my wedding day and find out the magic that will entail by Ashley DePencier.

On such an important and potentially stressful day, Ashley and her team's calmness, positivity, and confidence really eased my mind and made me sure our pictures would turn out fantastic. I was right! The moments Ashley captured on film are priceless and I am so glad she was my photographer!

Oh my gosh, I could go on and on about Ashley! But I'm going to try to keep this short. She is talented, amazing, friendly, fun, anything you can think of that's remarkable, is Ashley! We used Ashley for our engagement pictures, just out of luck. Then we fell in love with her and her photography style. It's also nice when you have a connection with your vendors. I felt like we weren't having a "photo shot" but we were just having fun. I'm guilty of being one of those people who says photographers are expensive. But she is sooo worth every penny you pay! She captured the first day of our life together. Expressions and emotions that I couldn't imaging! She even gave us a sneak peek (which being an anxious person, love!) the same night of the wedding. I will be using her for future family portraits! Thanks Ashley! Oops Erin too! Her assistant is awesome as well!

I was terried I wouldn't find a decent photographer in the million google & yelp pages. When I came upon Ashley's page I fell in love with her pictures. She is an amazing photographer. She knows how to work with large families & small families. She can be serious as needed, she can love your wedding ceremony & capture it in all the right ways and she can be silly enough to get some great smiles for pictures. I am so thankful I chose Ashley. She was so great to have & I will find an excuse to be photographed by her again!

Words can not even describe how grateful I am to have hired such a talented and understanding wedding photographer. I had a very large wedding party, and she worked very well with all of the different personalities in my crew! I was a little picky about timing and making sure we got plenty of pictures and Ashley worked patiently and flexibly with me and insured that we would figure it out! I was overwhelmed by how both my engagement and wedding photos turned out. They are timeless yet fun, and creative. Ashley was prompt, professional, creative, and very devoted to making sure I had amazing memories of my special day. She edited my photos in a timely manner and provided us with a slideshow prior to posting them on her web page. There are several things in my wedding I think back about and wish I would have done differently, however; if I were to do it all over again, I would be using Ashley!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Every time we hear that a couple chose Ashley as their wedding photographer we're both relieved and excited! We LOVE filming at weddings with Ashley! Her photos are beautiful and her personality is fun and easy-going on the wedding day. She gets along well with people and is always focused on the positive moments of the day. We never have to worry about her "getting in our shot" or standing in front of our cameras because she respects us as videographers and is careful to be there for every moment but also stay in the shadows and not take the spotlight away from the bride and groom. We HIGHLY recommend Ashley to researching brides - if you're on the fence then give her a call and set up a consultation to see if you're a good fit. She loves all things wedding, all things Disney, and all photos that are just lovely! Ashley is great - you won't be disappointed if you choose her as your photographer!
