    Best Kauai Photographer

    I couldn’t have found a better photographer to get our family photos taken in Kauai— Ashley is simply the best! Very clear communication, quick to respond, easy to get along with. She knew how to build rapport with both my husband and I as soon as we met, she also made my boys feel like family immediately as if we’ve known her for a long time making the shoot feel more natural.

    During our shoot, she was also able to get shots of this father and son tandem who’s been practicing surfing for several mornings already and she gave them her contact info so she can provide the photos to them as a core memory. How cool was that!

    Once we were done, she also made some recommendations on where to eat and hang out in the north shore, a secret beach that was so fun to discover!

    We got our photos very quickly and we were so happy with how they turned out! Just in time for us to get it printed for our holiday cards too!

    I highly recommend you book Ashley to capture the best memories of your trip/special occasion! You won’t regret it!

    Professional and Talented

    What a great find! Found Ashley when looking for a family photo shoot while visiting Kauai. Up front she is incredibly responsive and professional. She made booking a breeze and made great suggestions for location and time based on our needs and goals. Once we were on the island, we had a snag with an illness but she was so accommodating and we're fortunate her schedule allowed for a last minute change. At the photo shoot she had a plan and quickly assessed the different mini groups in our clan. She was so good with the children and easily accommodated a disabled family member leaving no one out. When the photo gallery arrived we are all thrilled with how well they turned out. Will above our expectations. She is so talented.

    Elopement in Kauai

    Ashley was our photographer for our elopement in Kauai and let me tell you, she was INCREDIBLE! We had a sunrise ceremony and her energy was infectious for the whole day! My husband and I had never taken professional photos before so we had no clue what we were doing, but Ashley made us feel super comfortable. We received our photos back and fell in love! I had multiple people tell me they were the coolest and most beautiful wedding pictures they had ever seen! I cannot recommend her enough! We also felt her price was extremely affordable compared to others that we saw!

    Fantastic!

    Reasonable price
    Ashley was absolutely fantastic to work with, she was amazing from my initial inquiry to her. She communicated so well, we were sent a meeting spot and were even updated by her morning of as well. She had an umbrella for me as it was drizzling prior to our photos. I felt like a friend was taking our photos, she was so kind, fun & personable. We were so comfortable and laughed alot during our photos. Hanalei Bay is gorgeous and she positioned us in all the different angles. I'd use her for all my photos if I wasn't just vacationing there. I can't thank her enough for the photos we will cherish.

    A photographer who cares!

    We went to Hawaii to celebrate a family friend’s wedding. They weren’t going to have a traditional wedding, but we wanted someone to take family photos during the trip. Ashley made everyone feel comfortable from the get go. She patiently waited as we all ordered coffee from the local coffee shop where we met up for our sunrise shoot, and made sure we had all the shots we wanted before we ended. We also emailed her about a surprise for the family and she helped execute it successfully while capturing beautiful photos of everyone’s reactions!

    Choose Ashley—Good Communication, Great Price, Beautiful Photos!

    I had such a wonderful experience working with Ashley. From start to finish, her communication was clear, timely, and professional, and she made the process smooth and stress-free. She was incredibly friendly and made our entire family feel comfortable and relaxed during the shoot — the little ones had an especially great time!

    The sunset photos taken at Hanalei Bay turned out beautiful — natural, vibrant, and full of personality. We couldn’t be happier with the final results. Everything was delivered exactly as promised and with great attention to detail.

    If you’re looking for a talented, reliable, and personable photographer to capture special moments, I highly recommend Ashley Valera Photography.

    Ashley is a true professional!

    She made sure to capture every single detail—and then some. From start to finish, Ashley brought a calm, organized, and creative energy to the shoot that instantly put our group at ease. We especially appreciated her patience and ability to work with everyone’s personalities while still staying on schedule.

    The photos came out absolutely stunning—thoughtfully composed, beautifully lit, and full of emotion. You can tell she’s passionate about her craft and truly cares about delivering high-quality work.

    Our Hanalei Bay intimate wedding, 5/5/2025

    I cannot say enough good things about Ashley. From the start, she put us at ease (especially since it was looking like rain on Hanalei Bay). She made taking our wedding photos FUN. A great example is Ashley asking us if we'd take off our shoes and romp around in the ocean. Those impromptu photos are my favorite! Ashley was genuinely happy and excited for us and having a wedding with just us two, it felt like she was not just our photographer, but our friend. We felt the same way about our wedding officiant. We relied on her to choose our photographer and we would choose both of them again. They work so well together. Mahalo Ashley! If I lived in Kauai, I would want to be your friend. Oh, and our pictures were amazing too!

    Amazing Proposal Photoshoot!

    Ashley was amazing for our proposal photo shoot in Hawaii. She was quick to respond and was able to work with us on our uncertain schedule. She went above and beyond with our shoot and captured our amazing moment incredibly well. We loved the results and would highly recommend her if you are in need of a photographer!

    Over the top fantastic services

    Ashley (Ashley Valera Photography) was awesome! Check out her website to see samples of her work, but we know firsthand what a wonderful job she did. She, the videographer, and the officiant worked together seamlessly so that all could do their own work while not interfering with the others. It was a well-oiled machine.

    We were married on Shipwreck Beach. There are cliffs/bluffs adjacent to the beach and after the ceremony (sunrise, so Ashley had to be up and ready to go first thing in the morning) Ashley walked us up to the cliff tops and spent a LOT of time with us setting up poses and pictures. For many of the photographs she had to walk to other cliffs and shoot back toward us. She put in a lot of effort to get some really great pictures from many different angles. By the end it was already getting warm and she just kept going.

    Ashley charged a reasonable rate and, quite frankly, put in more work than we could have reasonably expected.

    We highly recommend Ashley. If you, like us, are not locals and are taking a leap of faith with those you hire to capture the moment, Ashley is an exceptional choice.

    Simply Beautiful

    Ashley was such a joy to work with during our mini photo session in Kauai! When I initially placed my inquiry with her in September, she was quick to get back to me and gave me a quote that was fairly priced compared to others in the area. Prior to the shoot, she sent instructions on where to meet her that were easy to follow since my husband and I had not been to the Hanalei Bay area.

    Ashley brings such a fun approach to how she captures her photos. I would definitely recommend booking with her!

    Ashley is the best!

    We couldn't be more thrilled with having Ashley capture our wedding day! From the moment we met, her warm personality and professionalism put us at ease. She effortlessly blended into the background, allowing us to enjoy our special moments while knowing every detail was being beautifully documented.

    We were particularly impressed with her ability to capture candid moments that truly reflect the emotions and excitement of the day. Her knowledge of Kauai was evident when she took us up on the cliffs above Shipwreck beach for some amazing photographs, some of which required her to be very far away from us to capture the perfect shots. She truly went above and beyond to get these pictures!

    If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about making your day unforgettable, look no further than Ashley. She exceeded all our expectations.

    Fantastic!

    Ashley was amazing!!! She took our wedding photos and they turned out better than I could have hoped for. Not only are the pictures fantastic, but working with Ashley was so easy. She will put herself in crazy positions (literally on the edge of a cliff) to get you the photo you want! She is so kind and thoughtful. She really helped to guide us through the photography and the day in general. Neither myself or my husband are great posers when it comes to pictures, and she gave us great directions, while also making us feel comfortable and safe (again, even on the edge of a cliff). I would HIGHLY recommend using Ashley!

    Capturing Memories

    We couldn't have asked for a better photographer than Ashley Valera for our wedding in Kauai! From our first interaction, she was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely at ease. On the big day, she effortlessly captured every beautiful moment, from the intimate exchanges during the ceremony to the fun and laughter during the photo session afterwards.

    Ashley has such an amazing eye for detail, and she really knows how to showcase the natural beauty of Kauai in her shots. Our photos turned out stunning—each one tells a story and brings back all the joy of our special day. Plus, she was great at blending into the background while still guiding us with a gentle hand, allowing us to enjoy our moment without feeling overly posed.

    If you're looking for someone who combines talent with a personable touch, Ashley is your go-to photographer! We’re beyond thrilled with how everything turned out and can’t recommend her enough.

    Thank you, Ashley, for capturing our dream wedding!

    Ashley took amazing photos of our elopement! On the day of, she made us feel so comfortable, which is no easy feat, especially with two people who don’t love being in front of a camera! Her positive energy made the entire experience feel natural and fun, and the end results were even better than we could have imagined. The photos are stunning, and every time we look through them, we feel like we’re right back in Hawaii.

    Ashley has a true talent for bringing out the best in people

    We recently had the pleasure of working with Ashley in Kauai and we couldn't be more thrilled with our wedding pictures. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.

    Every shot was thoughtfully composed, and the lighting was perfect. The final photos were even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Ashley has a true talent for bringing out the best in people, and her passion for photography is evident in every image.

    We highly recommend to anyone looking for a talented, dedicated, and passionate photographer. Thank you for creating such stunning memories that we will cherish forever!"

    Really great experience!

    We are beyond thrilled with the incredible art and work Ashley did for our wedding. From our first meeting, it was clear that Ashley was not only highly skilled but also genuinely passionate about capturing the essence of our special day.

    Throughout our wedding Ashley was attentive, responsive, and full of creative ideas. She took the time to understand our vision and preferences, ensuring that every detail was considered. Ashley was an inspiring and calming presence and brought out the best expressions in our family for the camera, and she seamlessly blended into the background during the ceremony while capturing every important moment.

    The photos we received exceeded our expectations in every way. Each image is a beautiful testament to the love and joy we felt, and Ashley managed to capture the emotions and atmosphere perfectly. The candid sunset shots on the beach are particularly stunning, showcasing genuine moments of laughter, tears, and everything in between.

    Our family and friends have been raving about the photos, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Ashley's talent, professionalism, and dedication truly made our wedding day unforgettable. We highly recommend her to any couple looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond to capture their special day in the most beautiful way possible.

    Thank you, Ashley, for creating and giving us memories that we will cherish forever.

    The best!!!

    She is amazing!!!! Unfortunately, there was miscommunication with the florist so I received the wrong flower bouquet on our wedding day. Thank Jesus for Ashley Valera!! She was so encouraging, supportive, and understanding in that moment that I believe it was her positivity that turned my wedding day around. She was a joy to work with and I am in love with our pictures! I cannot recommend her enough

    We had an amazing experience with Ashley! She had us laughing and at ease from the get go — even our teens! She expertly cued us in our poses and balanced this with plenty of fun spontaneity. We’re so grateful to Ashley for capturing these wonderful family moments for us.

    Amazing photographer in Kauai

    Ashley is an amazing photographer and so great to work with! She picked the perfect location for my photos and guided me through everything with the perfect cues on how to pose. She captured my brother's wedding and also did a solo photoshoot for me while we were in Kauai. I would definitely recommend her!

    Ashley was a joy to work with on our wedding day. She was prepared for whatever weather present itself on that day. It was slightly rainy and somewhat gloomy with rainbows and crashing waves. She was able to catch it all with her talented eyes. I would choose Ashley over and over again. You won't be disappointed.

    Wonderful Photographer on Kauai

    Ashley photographed our 20th anniversary celebration and she was fabulous! She asked lots of questions beforehand to ensure that she captured those important memories just as we would like. She arrived early and was also very responsive in terms of emails and texts. Her photos were thoughtful, fun, and beautiful! She made sure to take extra shots of the large group when we had a few blinkers. She framed the outdoor scenery well, both during and after the rain, and also captured the natural expressions of our family. She was patient as we waited for some rain to clear and even lingered longer than expected to see if we might be able to capture a guest who had an unexpected situation come up. We loved the final images! I highly recommend Ashley. She was a pleasure to work with (sweet, easy-going, fun) and her photos were exactly what we had hoped for.

    Great experience!

    We hired Ashley to complete our family photos and they turned out great! She was professional, kind, and punctual (for emails and on the day). She helped my husband and I and our three young adult children feel relaxed for our photos. Ashley took a variety of poses and utilized different backgrounds (greenery and the ocean) at Hanalei. At the end, she asked us if there were any other poses we would like. Within the 2-week timeframe, she provided us a gallery of all the pictures she took. We had a great experience with her!

    Beautiful, magical wedding photos... MAHALO, Ashley!

    Ashley is an absolute gem. Not only is she an incredibly creative and talented photographer, but she is also one of the sweetest and most thoughtful people you’ll meet. My husband and I had the best time taking photos with her at our wedding. She made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. She is also a great listener and problem solver, which is exactly what a bride or groom needs on their special day! If you're first-time visitors like we were, she knows the best spots to capture the magic of Kauai. When she sent me our photos, I gasped. I never imagined I’d have such GORGEOUS shots! I can’t stop looking at them!!! I’ve had so many compliments from friends and family. I HIGHLY recommend her. Mahalo, Ashley!!!

    Amazing experience!

    Ashley is such an incredible photographer! We had her take our engagement pictures in Kauai and when it rained, she had a backup plan already in place and we were able to take pictures by a waterfall. She made me and my fiancé extremely comfortable & our pictures turned out better than we could've ever imagined. She is also very responsive and fast! I highly recommend her!

    Ashley was so much fun

    First off, we were really nervous and felt self conscience about having our pictures taken. Within a few minutes she made us feel super comfortable and even showed us a few sneak peaks on the back of her camera. Which was super cool and gave us confidence the rest of the day.

    Wow!! Ashley is amazing.

    Such an incredible experience from communication, flexibility, to pictures. We were on the island for 6 days, did our engagement and got a recommendation while we were there to have Ashley do our photos. THANKFULLY she was available 2 days after our engagement. Ashley had us do a sunrise shoot in Hanalei Bay, and wow was it worth the early morning drive. She was so flexible meeting us, and knew exactly what shots where needed and where. The pictures could not have been better, we absolutely recommend her to anyone who is visiting Kauai for a photo shoot. Pricing was also very reasonable for the quality, don’t miss out!!

    When looking for a wedding photographer not only was I looking for great quality work but I was also searching for someone within our budget and we're so glad we chose her. She was so easy and extremely fun to work with! From booking with her, to the morning of my wedding and everything in between. The day of my wedding she even had a gift for me ("to wipe my happy tears") with a sweet note to go with it. I highly recommend Ashley and her team as your photographer.

    Elope in Kauai

    Ashley was so amazing to work with! She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captures such amazing shots! She was even laying in the sand to get the perfect shots!! If I’m ever back in Kauai there is no one else I’d rather use!

    Kauai Wedding

    Ashley helped make our wedding day flawless! We have several beautiful photographs to look at and remember this day forever!

    Ashley was so easy going and willing to go to several locations to make sure we got all the settings and lighting we wanted for our pictures. She had intimate and creative ideas for locations and poses so we didn't have to think of anything but be in the moment.

    Ashley was a true professional and she has a special talent for capturing a great moment on film! Outstanding quality and service!

I would highly recommend!!

    Ashley was simply amazing! She responded quickly to any questions I had. She was very accommodating and the photo shoot was SO MUCH FUN! We laughed the entire time and Ashley captured us in our natural element with out it feeling like we were constantly posing. She even jumped right in the water with us just to catch the right light. I cannot say enough about how amazing she was!

    Wedding shoot

    We are so happy that we chose Ashley as our photographer for our wedding! You will not be disappointed! She is not only talented, but also very professional, patient, and considerate. She answered all of our e-mails promptly! On the day of the shoot, her easygoing personality and flexibility made us feel at ease. She provided us with a "sneak peek" of the photos the very next day, and the turnaround for the final photos was so fast! The images that she captured are beautiful, and we will certainly treasure them for years to come.

    Ashley captured our vow renewal beautifully. She took time in two different locations and timed everything perfectly to capture the best light for our sunset ceremony. The pictures are stunning. Our officiant and Ashley were the perfect team for our special day.

    Stunning Photography....Exceptional Photographer

    Our experience with Ashley has to be hands down our best photography experience in 25 years of marriage. We booked a session for our 25th anniversary. Ashley was exceptional. Her personality was great, we felt like we were doing a photo shoot with an old friend. She made us comfortable and that shows in our photos. Now the photos...they’re stunning, absolutely breathtaking, we LOVE them and would book Ashley again in a heartbeat. They capture the love we feel for each other, the surreal beauty of the landscape and sooo much more. I can not recommend Ashley highly enough. If you’re looking for a photographer, end your search here, you have found the perfect photographer.

    Helped Us To Feel Comfortable

    We are naturally a shy and private couple so I was worried that our photos were not going to look as great as I wanted. Boy was I wrong. Ashley was so kind and energetic she made us both feel at ease. We are so happy she was apart of our team and our wedding photography. Thank you Ashley!

    Beautiful natural photography!

    As a photography enthusiast, I can recommend Ashley.
    She was up to drive all the way up to Tunnels Beach to capture our special day and then she delivered beautiful photos, with a very real and natural style, no crazy Lightroom edits as other photographers seemed to offer.
