About

Hi! I am Ashley of Beginning and End Photography. My love for wedding and elopement photography came in experiencing my own fairy tale when I married my husband nearly a decade ago. I'm a wife, and mother to 3 littles who have stolen my heart. My personality runs off fierce passion and I know what I like…and don’t like. If you know me, you know I love wine and words. Quotes to be exact. Something about the poetry of literature takes my breath away.

Over the years, I have learned from both my personal and professional life the importance of the unspoken human connection. I yearn for embraces that can tell someone how much you love them without uttering a word. My soul craves authenticity and simplicity. That is why it may come as no surprise that I find nothing more beautiful than two people, standing in front of each other, vowing to love one another for all time and all eternity. I pride myself on my ability to tell love stories from behind a camera. Thank you for considering me as your story teller. I promise to tell your story as beautifully as it is laid out; beginning and end.

“WE LOVED WITH A LOVE THAT WAS MORE THAN LOVE.” -EDGAR ALLAN POE

    She went above and beyond!

    Where to begin! I came across Ashleys instagram page last spring as my husband and I were desperately trying to find a photographer that met our style, had the personality we wanted, understood our vision, AND was available in 8 months (our plans changed from waiting an extra year to getting married the coming summer!). I reached out to see if she was available and gained so much more than a photographer on that day (honestly, I don't think it took me more than a few hours to decide I wanted to be her client!). Ashley helped me put my vision to reality. We wanted a small intimate wedding with less than 20, and then I wanted to escape off to multiple locations to capture the wedding photos of my dreams and BOY did this guy do all of that and more. And, I should mention that when we connected, I had none of this planned. I didn't have a location, I didn't know where I wanted to take photos; basically I felt completely lost. Ashley helped me research AirBnb's. She sent over locations that were exactly what I had pictured. She wrote out the timeline and helped to make adjustments when ever they might have been needed. She provided the props, the laughter, and the made the magic happen. I can honestly say that I have absolutely no regrets or "wish I would have" thoughts. Our wedding day was a complete dream in every single aspect, and none of this would have been possible without a wedding photographer like Ashley who poured her whole heart into making our dreams come true.

    Ashley is amazing!!

    Ashley is AMAZING, she is so much more than a wedding photographer. Not only did she take beautiful images of our special day, but she sat down with my husband and I several times leading up to our big day to discuss our wants and needs, provide guidance on timing, style and made her self readily available for questions pretty much whenever. We had a relatively short engagement and didn't know how to begin to plan out our big day. Ashley knew when the lighting would be best, how much time we would need for pictures, ceremony, all of it! I'm so thankful to have had her expertise and have no regrets choosing Beginning and End Photography!

    Completely In Love!

    A little over a year ago I just happened to stumble upon Ashley’s Instagram page and fell in love with her work. Her beautiful photographs were exactly the look and feel I wanted for our wedding, and the prices of her packages were either cheaper or comparable to other photographers in our lower price range budget but the difference in quality was amazing! The best thing we did for our wedding was hiring Ashley! Our videographer we hired turned out to be disappointing, but I always tell people “it’s ok because I have these beautiful pictures that perfectly capture the entire day”. She seriously saved the day! There were so many sentimental elements to our wedding, and she made sure to capture them all. And before she left for the night, she made sure to come ask me if there were any other shots that I wanted her to get before she left. We got the photos back super fast too!

    Since the wedding, we’ve personally gone back to Ashley twice for shoots and she’s shot for my sister’s Senior photos, my cousin’s Senior photos, and family photos for my aunt. She is so genuine and friendly. She makes you feel so comfortable, like you’ve been friends for years. And I just love that she has such a creative eye. It is always such a great time working with her and I am never disappointed.

    The Absolute BEST

    Ashley is an absolute photography genius and I am so incredibly happy that we chose her as our elopement photographer! She was the kindest soul from the very beginning and helped plan our last minute elopement. She handled everything with such professionalism, grace, and organization that it made all of the planning absolutely stress-free. She handled literally everything for us!

    The pictures she took were absolutely gorgeous as well. They are absolute art and we cannot get enough of them! Not only is she great at photography, she is also such a sweet and kind person. She makes you feel like you have another best friend with you on your wedding day. She is an angel and we are blessed to have such beautiful pictures as memories of our special day. We can't thank you enough Ashley, you're the best!!
