Amazing Photographers!

Ashley and Bill are your dream team wedding photographers!!! Photography was my number 1 priority and I did a LOT of research of practically every photographer in the raleigh area. I already loved Bow Tie’s photos from their portfolio but as soon as I talked to Ashley on the phone I knew I had to lock them down. Ashley is very personable, experienced, and very type A with photography which is WHAT YOU WANT! My father in law actually asked if she used to be a military commander because only Ashley could whip our groomsmen into poses so we could get some good photos of them 🤣 if you don’t know how to pose, don’t you worry, Ashley will guide you through all the best poses so you don’t look awkward! Oh and did I mention we got our entire wedding album in about TWO WEEKS?! Highly highly recommend!!

Absolutely Amazing

Where do I even start??? If you're thinking of booking Ashley and Bill for your wedding, absolutely do it!! Ashley has such an incredible talent for making you feel like you've known her for your entire life. She also tells you exactly what you need to do, where to stand, everything, to capture some AMAZING photos!!! I also felt completely at ease knowing that she would be one of the most important people "running" the wedding day - she kept us on time and having fun the entire day! We just got preview pictures back and they are breathtaking - can't wait for the full gallery! Ashley and Bill, you are an amazing team and I would recommend you to anyone!!!

The. Best. Ever.

Ashley and Bill are the best dynamic duo! They play off each other perfectly and have so much talent together. Ashley and bill are so easy to talk to, be around, and feel comfortable with. I started following them both on Instagram prior to getting engaged and love every wedding they shoot!

I never thought I could “pose” or look natural in photos but when we got our engagement album back, we were blown away. The wedding album was just the same and out of this world. The colors, the lighting, the angles... it’s all perfect and hard to even put into words. All of our friends and family are completely in awe at the photos from our special day and we now have beautiful memories to last a lifetime.
Ashley is incredibly responsive and helpful with every aspect of your special day, too. She helped me with things that were not her responsibility. Highly recommend and can’t say enough good things about Bow Tie!
