Ashley was our wedding photographer and she did an AMAZING job! She was our preferred vendor from the start and she exceeded our expectations! We did our engagement photo with her and the results was absolutely stunning! Her pictures are so vibrant and brings out the best possible pictures one can hope for. Her level of professionalism and her charming personality made our experience truly wonderful. If you are thinking of hiring a professional photographer for your special event, please hire Ashley as she will deliver above your expectations!!!

While Ashley and I attended the same high school, I originally reconnected with her after I saw that she photographer another high school friend’s wedding. I started following her photography on Instagram well before I met my now husband. When my husband and I began dating and I knew I would marry him one day, I knew I had to have Ashley be our photographer. Not even a few weeks after being engaged I reached out to Ashley to connect and discuss hiring her as our wedding photographer. And honestly, it was the best decision we made for our wedding other than marrying each other. Both my husband and I are very camera shy and hate having our photos taken, but Ashley made us so comfortable it was like we were hanging out and catching up with a close friend rather than having someone take pictures of us. Her bright and natural photography style is exactly what we were looking for in a society where highly edited and photoshopped styles are popular. From our engagement shoot in the San Bernardino Mountains to our wedding at Lake San Marcos, Ashley embraced us and the natural scenes around us which is exactly what we wanted with an outdoor wedding in November. She worked diligently with us on our timeline to make sure we wouldn’t miss the sunset with our winter wedding and on the day of the wedding she made sure we were happy and as relaxed as we could be, that we had a drink in our hands post ceremony and even brought me an extra slice of cake after our cake cutting. Not even a week after the wedding she had sneak peak of photos ready for us to look at. There is not a picture she took and presented to us that we don’t love. I would love for her to photograph every major moment in our married life together and highly recommend her.

Ashley is truly amazing!! First of all, our wedding photos turned out incredible and I have people constantly complimenting how amazing they are 4 months later. I have even had more than one person tell me that our wedding photos made them hate theirs! I was feeling so overwhelmed with all of the wedding planning stress on the day of the wedding and when Ashley showed up I immediately felt more calm! Ashley was by far our favorite wedding vendor and best choice we made for our wedding day. Ashley brings the most positive, fun, vibrant energy and is so much more than just a photographer!!! She really knows what she is doing and did far more than our day-of coordinator to make sure everything was on schedule and going as planned. Our wedding day was perfect and I wouldn't have wanted to do it without Ashley!! Ashley did our engagement shoot which also turned out amazing! She really captures the best moments beautifully! Ashley is also very reliable and great with communication & she had our photos ready so quick! She even sent us a sneak peak the day after our wedding! An all around amazing human, I could not recommend her enough!!! We love you Ashley! - Sarah & Mike

The moment we had our first phone conversation with Ashley, we were immediately drawn to her positive, vibrant personality, and we knew that we had found our wedding photographer.
Ashley really makes you think about your wedding vision, something we hadn’t really put too much thought into until she came into the picture (pun intended).
She truly wants to know her couples, their story, which makes for a more personal experience. She quickly becomes your friend, not just your wedding photographer.
Our favorite aspect of working with Ashley is her skill of making us feel super comfortable in front of the camera, all nervousness and shyness gone (we must admit we had some wine before our engagement session that also helped😉, but that was not needed anymore the wedding day). Ashley made us feel like we were alone in front of the camera, made us focus on each other and in the moment, without worrying about what was happening around us.
Needless to say, all her pictures are absolutely GORGEOUS. She made an amazing job capturing all the important moments of the day, from the first look pictures to the ceremony, reception, and all the details in between. Her pictures make us relive the wedding day over and over.

I can't say enough about Ashley! She was one of the first and best decisions I made for my wedding! We booked her at the beginning of 2020 before all the craziness of postponing our wedding due to COVID, and she was so supportive, kind, and honestly, a true friend walking alongside us as we made difficult decisions with date changes, etc. We ended up doing a photoshoot on our original wedding date with her to honor the original special day! I can't express how beautiful her work is, but to have a photographer take care of every detail, continually stay in contact with you about how you're feeling, what your vision is, and ensure that it all comes to light - literally the biggest weight lifted off your shoulders! She worked alongside my vendors and made sure the day went seamlessly! She is the BFF you need on your wedding day!! Adjusting your out-of-place hair, fixing your veil and train, adjusting you, and positioning you so the pictures turn out flawless! She really goes the extra mile to make sure everything is perfect and just how you envisioned it! I was in contact with her continuously through the 2 years of planning! It never felt like those vendors you hire, send a deposit to, and don't hear from until the wedding day! I feel like I gained a friend and mentor out of her to this day!

Stop what you are doing and HIRE ASHLEY RIGHT NOW! I found Ashley on Instagram and immediately fell in love with her work. From the moment we had our first phone call, I knew I would be hiring her - not only for her vision but for her amazing personality and overall just fabulous spirit. I hired Ashley before we even had a date or venue set. Before our engagement photos, she truly took the time and got to know my fiancé and I. She carefully picked out locations that best fit our personality and even made sure we could have an animal friendly location to make sure our two Labs made it into our photos. Both of us being camera shy, Ashley made us feel comfortable and she was silly which helped us relax a lot. Her preparation and communication before the wedding was unmatched. She was perhaps the most prepared person on the day of our wedding. Ashley handled my VERY large family, including an unruly uncle, with poise and reverence. She, again, made us all feel at ease in front of the camera. She truly is the best vendor we worked with and I'd hire her over and over. All our photos - engagement and wedding - turned out to die for. I cried with each photo because of how perfectly Ashley captured our perfect day, with our perfect dogs, and our amazing friends and family. I plan have Ashley continue to capture all of our amazing life events going forward. Hire her!

Hiring Ashley for our wedding was the single best decision we made! Not only did the photos turn out beautifully, but also the day went so much smoother because of her help! We threw together a very last-minute, backyard COVID wedding, and thankfully Ashley was available. She was so responsive and worked very quickly with us to make all the arrangements. She worked really hard in advance to understand (and help us think through!) what type of photos we wanted. She also helped us figure out the best timeline for the ceremony and other wedding events.

The day of, Ashley arrived early and immediately set to work figuring out the best spots for photos in our Airbnb. She was so organized and took the helm on making sure everything went smoothly that day. The florist actually thought Ashley was our wedding coordinator (which she basically functioned as!). I can honestly say our wedding day went so much better thanks to Ashley’s help. Ashley’s bright and cheerful personality set everyone at ease, and we are very happy with the photos. I cannot recommend Ashley enough! She is so talented and such a wonderful person, we just love her!

Ashley goes well beyond professionalism, to the point that you feel like your wedding is as important to her as it is to you. She communicated with us frequently throughout our year of planning, and especially in our final weeks. She even visited the area surrounding our venue before the wedding, just so she could find any hidden spots for pictures.

She asks for your insight and inspiration, but knows when to add her own touch and talent. Most importantly, she is a dream to work with on the actual wedding day. Whether it was sharing calming words with the bride, or herding 10 rowdy groomsmen, she knew exactly what to do to get all the shots, and make the day flow seamlessly. Ashley did way more than take our photos, she was essentially a second coordinator.

We recently got all of our photos back from Ashley- and WOW. As if I wasn't already blown away by her talents, she truly outdid herself. She knows exactly how to capture the perfect mood lighting of every scene. She knows where to whisk you off to get the best golden hour portraits. She truly has a talent that is irreplicable. She then also applies that talent to her social media presence. Seeing Ashley's words about our love on her blog, instagram, and facebook made us feel SO special (and teary-eyed).

I strongly encourage you to hire you for your event, family portraits, etc.!

There are not enough words to express the appreciation we have for Ashley. She is a master at what she does and we will be asking her to capture all family milestones moving forward. We had looked through Ashley’s portfolio and were immediately drawn to the brightness of each photo. She first captured our engagement photos and we were completely blown away by the entire process. Ashley has a way of putting you at ease and truly capturing honest and raw emotion. We were in love with every single photo from our engagement session and we knew our wedding day would be no different. My favorite part about working with Ashley is that she treats every photo as if it is the only photo she will be taking that day. There is so much care and attention that goes into each snapshot. It is no surprise that we were also blown away by our wedding photos. They are bright, fun, and perfectly capture our personalities. We can’t wait to work with Ashley again soon and have since told everyone we know about her!

here is no better was to say it other than Ashley is simply the best! Her vibrant colors and naturally lit pictures first caught our eye but after the first phone conversation we knew our search for the perfect person to capture these special moments was finally over. Ashley’s passion for what she does is easily felt right when you meet her and it is even more apparent in the way she captures her clients. From the beginning she was very helpful in planning our engagement session. Her recommendations for locations were spot on, her advice on choosing outfits was amazing, and she even helped coordinate our dog into our session. My fiance isn’t super comfortable in front of the camera but she quickly made our session feel fun and relaxed with her lighthearted but still professional spirit. We were climbing on trees. She was climbing on rocks. We really just had the best time celebrating our love for each other while Ashley worked her magic in gently coaching us and capturing it all. Our photographs turned out to be absolutely gorgeous!!! We were so anxious to see them and Ashley was great in getting us some quick sneak peeks followed by our incredible gallery. Everything about them is perfectly us and just looking at them gives us the feelings of that day all over again. We feel incredibly lucky to have connected with Ashley and cannot wait to have her there to capture our wedding day!!!!
