Highly Recommend!

Ashley was our photographer for our proposal, engagement session, and wedding, and we loved working with her for all three. I do not like getting my picture taken, and also feel super awkward during formal photos, and Ashley put us both at ease throughout the process. She made sure we had fun and felt like ourselves. She is so kind, warm and fun, that it was almost like she was a wedding guest who just happened to be taking photos! She worked through the formal shot list really efficiently, which ensured that we had plenty of time to actually participate in the cocktail hour and reception and hang out with people, instead of being off somewhere taking pictures forever. Our two dogs were a part of our proposal and wedding, and Ashley worked so well with them and got the cutest photos. Highly recommend!

Excellent experience

We booked Story Photographers (Ashley) for our wedding on 9/8/18. Communication with Ashley before the wedding planning out details for the day was easy and prompt. On the day of the wedding, Ashley was on top of everything, making sure we were staying on schedule for all the different photos we needed to get in. Ashley also saved the day on multiple occasions with her magic bag that included anything to fix any little snafu that arose while the girls in the bridal party were getting ready (safety pins, hairspray, etc etc etc). Ashley captured the wedding day perfectly and in such great detail. The pictures turned out absolutely fabulous. Highly recommend Story Photographers for your wedding day!

My wife and I are so glad that we selected Ashley and the Story Photographers team for our wedding! We knew that Story Photographers had photographed other LGBTQ weddings and it was important to us to have vendors who supported and were genuinely excited about our big day! From day one, Story Photographers was super professional and was very quick to respond to any communication. They were also helpful in suggesting other vendors that they had had great experiences with. The day of the wedding, Ashley and Charity were so both professional and efficient, and made sure we got all of the formal photos that we wanted in a timely fashion! We were even EARLY to the reception which never happens! Ashley and Charity's presence was both calming and fun, and they instantly connected with so many of our family members and friends. Our wedding day wouldn't have been the same without them!

We used Ashley for our engagement photos and then our wedding and she has become our official photographer. She and her team are absolutely amazing and I love their vision and eye. So easy to work with and they capture the little moments so perfectly. She's now done our pregnancy announcements, my baby shower, our maternity photos and will be doing our newborn photos as well!

Ashley is amazing. When I graduated college, Ashley took graduations for my friend and I and we loved them. Then, Ashley was the first vendor we booked for our wedding because I knew I wanted to make sure we had her and no one else! She made my bridesmaids and I feel so comfortable during photos and even was able to get my husband, who hates photos, to smile a bit while she was taking pictures of the groom and groomsmen. We love our pictures and plan to recommend Ashley and Story Photographers to any of our friends in the future who are getting married!

Ashley is amazing to work with! Not only did she graciously reschedule after our work schedules were upended, she hauled her equipment all over downtown Hillsborough without complaint to make sure we took photos in all of "our spots." I'm so looking forward to seeing the shots she takes at our November wedding. :)

Ashley was a dream to work with from Day 1! Always responsive, helpful, kind, and compassionate. Not only is she extremely talented, but her light-hearted demeanor puts you at ease and instantly makes you feel like you've known her for years. I loved working with her on my wedding day - she made us feel so confident! What a perfect experience!

I have been at two weddings where Ashley was the photographer and knew she was exactly the person I wanted for my own. From beginning to end she made the whole process seamless - responsive to emails, wanting input on our families and photo list, and throughout the day I never once had to think or worry about her and the photographs. She made our family and bridal party photos go by super fast, she knew how to bustle my dress, she took charge when she needed to, and our finished pictures are incredible - she captured the night perfectly and just as we wanted.

I cannot thank Ashley and her co-photographer Britt for the beautiful job they did on my wedding! Ashley met with us ahead of time to talk over everything to make sure she knew exactly what we wanted and what she needed from us to make that happen as smoothly as possible. On the day of, both photographers were as in love with our wedding venue as I was and found all the best spots for our first look. They made sure to capture all the most precious moments of our day and worked around any number of complications caused by unexpected health problems and last minute changes. I cannot give them enough praise - they are kind, gentle, thoughtful, fun and professional. We definitely plan to use them again, for new family shoot, for babies, for anything! They are truly wonderful to work with!!!!

It was such a great experience working with Ashley and David from Story Photographers! My husband and I used Story Photographers for our engagement photos, bridal portrait, and wedding day. Ashley made us feel so comfortable doing the engagement photo shoot. My husband hates having his picture taken, but Ashley made it fun and easy for us! The weather was horrible for my bridal portrait and we had to postpone it a day. Ashley was so flexible and understanding when we were debating which day to do it and decided to go ahead with it on an overcast day. She listened to my ideas and helped me keep my dress clean despite mud and threatening rain. On our wedding day Ashley and David took beautiful pictures and were such a great team. It's like they could read each other's minds about what angles they wanted and where they wanted us to be. They also helped keep us on schedule throughout the day. They really blended in and were not intrusive like I've seen some photographers do at weddings. Ashley was always prompt about responding to any questions I had and turned around the pictures within a short period of time. All of the photographs have been high quality and authentic capturing the best moments! I highly recommend Story Photographers!

These are the most lovely photographers to work with! They will "tell the story" of your day in the most beautiful way and they truly "listen" to what their clients are looking for. We have had the extreme privilege to work with them on several occasions and their photos continue to blow us out of the water time and time again. They are true professionals to work with and wonderful people to know.

Story Photographers are absolutely wonderful to work with! We recently worked a wedding together and I could tell my couple felt right at ease with them, which always makes for a smoother wedding day. I could also tell that the photographers really cared about the bride and groom and wanted to make the photography experience pleasant. I highly recommend!
