    10/5/2019 Wedding

    From first contact through our big day, Ashley was professional and a complete joy to work with. She listened to our wishes and offered great advice based on her experience to help us realize our photographic vision for the day.
    Ashley had a baby a month before our wedding and to make sure she delivers our expectation, she went above and beyond by hiring a second photographer for us!!

    We couldn’t be happier with our engagement and wedding pictures. She completely exceeded our expectations.
    We are so grateful for the amazing photos we will cherish forever.

    Ashley is my GIRL!!

    We hired Ashley to do our engagement photos and our wedding photos. To say that Ashley is amazing, is an understatement. She takes such gorgeous photos, I cannot even stand it! She made me feel so comfortable, it didn't even feel crazy awkward having photos taken and being posed. It felt more natural than I thought it would. She has a great eye for what makes a good photo. I don't even have my wedding photos back yet, because we only got married a week ago, but knowing how our engagement photos came out, I am itching to see more! I know that she will get us some amazing shots. Thank you for being so flexible and working so hard for us Ashley!!!!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Thank you, Katey and Oliver, you and your families were a dream to work with! Despite that I was 8 months pregnant at that time, we didn't let that slow us down, haha. What a spectacular day you had and I was so thrilled to be apart of it all : ) Love and hugs!!

    Beyond Your Dreams

    Ashley was a pleasure to work with! Not only was she amazing, but the photos that she produced were beyond our expectations. My husband and I won a free engagement session with her and from there we knew she would be the one to help us through the wedding photo journey. Ashley is well equipped to handle any bride situation as she recently went through a wedding herself. She can empathize with the bride and calm her down so you see the big picture. My favorite part of working with Ashley was how open she was to my (picky) ideas. I wanted to get a very specific images and Ashley not only accommodated me, she found ways to enhance what I was imagining. The experience was truly incredible and the results brought tears to our eyes as my husband and I relived this special day in our relationship while looking through the pictures. Thank you Ashley for all you have done for us!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Thank you for these wonderfully kind words Kaitlyn and Mike! I am still swooning over your images! Kaitlyn you were a stunning bride and your fall wedding day was just perfection. You were never picky haha, you just knew what you wanted and I am so thrilled I was able to deliver images that were beyond your expectations! I had so much fun capturing your day at the Mansion at Bald Hill. Congrats to you both and here's too many more adventures : )

    Thank you so very much Ben and Emily for your kind and heartfelt review!! I loved your day and despite the occasional Spring showers, you two were the perfect clients and up for anything. I wish you many years of happiness together.

    Ashley is amazing!!!
    She has an eye for beauty and is attentive to detail. She is so dedicated but at the same time knows how to make you feel relaxed, because getting your picture taken can be awkward. It doesn't feel that way when Ashley is your photographer. She worked with us to choose the wedding day photo plan that was best for us. She is a wonderful, amazing person who takes wonderful, amazing pictures and I would highly recommend her!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Where do I begin? Ashlee and Keith I adore you! At this time I have photographed your engagement, wedding, pregnancy announcement, and now your maternity session!!! I have loved watching your story unfold and I can't wait to continue working with you and your amazing families. You are the most adorable high school sweethearts. Thanks for allowing me to capture all the important moments as you go onto each new adventure! I look forward to the next one

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    I remember that even when you forgot the marriage certificate we made it work!! Your day was cold and beautiful that winter by the Christmas tree, but your love was all that you needed. Congrats to you both!! I was so honored to capture your elopement.

    Ashley makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever from the minute you meet her! She is very sweet and compassionate about her work and her clients! She will answer any questions at any time of the day and she does not make you feel like you’re just another client. To her, you are her top priority!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    You are so sweet thank you Jess! I remember all the texts and calls we had, haha. I was happy to ease your mind and look at all of your Pinterest ideas : ) to help make your dream wedding photos come true! Congrats to you both, your day was gorgeous!

    I don't even know where to begin about Ashley.. she is AMAZING! Since the first day we met we knew we found the right person for our day. She is kind, personable, makes you feel relaxed, takes her time to get the right photos..I could go on and on. We had some struggles since both our families are split so then tension was definitely felt on the day of but she when above and beyond to make everyone feel comfortable, and stayed positive. And of course was right in budget for our day! She worked with us to stay on budget. I would HIGHLY recommend Ashley to anyone who asked! If your still looking, stop and contact Ashley!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Julia, you and your family were a DREAM come true to work with and I hope to feel like apart of your family again soon for your sister's future wedding. Your day was wonderful even with the drizzly rain you simply glowed inside and out and never let anything get you down! I was so glad to be able to keep you calm and your family on track and organized that day. It all worked out perfectly. I am so happy for you and Paul!! You are two amazing people that deserve all the happiness that life will bring. Congrats again and thank you for your kind words and the beautiful thank you card you sent me! I will truly cherish it always. Happy marriage guys, xoxo!

    Ashley was amazing, my husband and I knew we picked her for a reason, all the pictures came out awesome! She takes the time to get the lighting right, the colors pop which is what we loved, nothing is "washed out". She made us feel very relaxed, and made our day special. I would definitely recommend her.

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Rob and Kelly for your kind review. I had a blast with you at the Foster Country Club on your wedding day! Loved your wedding party, they were the sweetest EVER! Thank you again for booking your wedding and engagement photos with me. I loved seeing your story unfold from start to finish. Now you are married!!! Hugs and love to you both. Be good to each other. I am here when you need me for the future maternity shoot ; )

    Our experience with Ashley couldn't have been better! From the first meeting almost a year before the wedding to reconnecting the weeks before and then on the big day: she was warm, engaging,flexible and her price was very right. After seeing her work I knew she would be a great choice because she focuses so much on nature and natural beauty. We are beyond impressed with how the photos turned out and have gotten so many compliments on her work!! Very satisfied customers and would recommend her to anyone who shares that aesthetic preference of letting natural beauty shine.

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Stacey and Todd, I adored our Martha's Vineyard adventures together on your wedding day! It was my first time there as you know, and what a BLAST it was : ) The love you feel for each other radiated throughout your day. Thank you again for booking with me and for trusting me with your day having only met me one time that winter before. I am so glad I was able to capture exactly what we discussed and you envisioned for your wedding photos. Have a wonderful life together and CONGRATS!!

    Holy cow. If you are looking for an extremely talented, fun-loving artist, look no further. Ashley is not only an amazingly talented photographer but an absolute joy to work with. From engagement photos through our wedding day, she was more like a good friend who went above and beyond to make the entire experience unique and special for us. For our engagement photos, she scoped out locations ahead of time and brought personalized, hand-made props for our shoot. On our wedding day she took care of everything for us so we were able to truly enjoy ourselves. She is organized, prompt, and always a positive person to be around even through wedding stress. Her photography is stunning and honestly captured the love and beauty of our first looks, ceremony, and reception. She is flexible, respected our budget, responded to every frantic text/e-mail, and created amazing photos that we will love throughout our lifetime. We put our trust in Ashley and her work far exceeded our expectations. We could not be happier to have booked with her!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Becka and Brian, thank you both so, so much for your AMAZINGLY kind and sweet words in this review. I teared up when I read it and also when I first saw you that day before you went to see Brian for the first look. I know you said "No crying" but I just couldn't help but get emotional. I felt that it was the closing chapter to a romantic story from beginning to end. You were and are the definition of a beautiful and glowing bride and person!! Kara of course looked wonderful too ; ) I truly felt that having shot your engagement session, your sister's wedding and then yours that your family became my family. It was so nice to see your parents be so excited to see me and relaxed knowing I was going to take care of everything for you. They're wonderful people. I was truly honored to be apart of your wedding. I wish you and Brian many years of happiness which I know without a doubt you will have. I am so thrilled you loved the photos as much as I did taking them! Love and hugs to you both!!!

    Ashley was so amazing!! Everything from the initial contact to the engagement shoot went so smoothly and was completely painless. We couldn't have had a better experience!

    Ashley was incredibly accommodating and was very conscious about our likes and dislikes in terms of photos. We got so many wonderful shots! She was very encouraging and we lost all the jitters we had a couple of minutes into our session.

    Her blog is also so wonderful. It's so nice to have that post to read and re-read about your engagement session.

    We would highly recommend Ashley to anyone who is looking for a photographer. If you are at all nervous about the process of finding a photographer, having your photos taken, or ensuring you get the best shots, Ashley will take away all those nerves for you. She's simply the best!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Melody and David, it was my pleasure to photograph your engagement photos!! I had a blast with all of your GREAT props and energy at the Arnold Arboretum. I am so glad I was able to ease your nervousness as nearly everyone (except David, haha) gets a bit nervous having their photo taken. It's my job to let your love shine...and not the nervousness. Happy planning and I can't wait for the next chapter!!

    Ashley was wonderful to deal with. Very fun, energetic and passionate about her work . Very professional. On time. We met with her and immediately connected. Very outgoing. She had a very nice gift for us for booking with her. Her price was very reasonable and her work wonderful. She caught so many wonderful beautiful details about the wedding from beginning to end. I will definitely recommend her. She is a 5 star all the way! Thank you Ashley!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Cecilia and Gregg, I loved your intimate wedding at Slater Park!! You had so many AMAZING details from signs, to flowers, to special ring boxes and hidden surprises (Chinese lantern release). Cecilia you truly are the master DIY bride ; ) It was a pleasure to work with such lovely people who trusted in my vision and listened to all of my advice and direction while we took photos. It was a HOT July day, but it was beautiful. Thank you both for a wonderful day!!

    LOOK NO FURTHER! You have found your photographer. Seriously, stop looking...I mean it...

    Ashley, as a human being, is a gracious and beautiful spirit. Her photography truly reflects her world- vibrant and loving. When we first met with Ashley, she really tried to tease out what we were looking for, our budget, our style, first look...I would never have even thought about those details! She is part photographer, part wedding planner, part emotional support. I seriously cannot even imagine working with anyone besides her. When we saw your final prints, my husband and I were awe-struck at her ability to capture the spirit of our beautiful, but rainy wedding day. Since then, I have recommended Ashley to everyone needing photography. My sister even booked her for her wedding next year! We cannot wait to do a fall family photo shoot, and maternity pictures someday!

    Ashley, we cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us.

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Kara and David, I love you both dearly and from the moment we met I felt like you were somehow my long lost sister/brother. No we are not related, haha. Your tented/backyard wedding so so special right by your parent's home. Despite the morning showers, it cleared up just for you, but I had the clear umbrellas ready. Thank you so much for being the sweetest couple ever. I have never had a bride serve me lobster to before so that right there hit my top ten amazing wedding photographer moments ; ) From the emotional vows to the dancing the night away under the soft glow of the twinkle lights strung along the tent, it was a great wedding. I am so honored to have been there to capture it all. Hugs to you both. Congrats guys, you did it!!

    Ashley was wonderful to work with! She was very accomodating and took the time to scout out where we'd have our photos taken. She made sure to have props and she really listened to what we wanted for both our engagement and wedding photos! We highly recommend her to everyone who needs a photographer. She makes you feel like a very valuable client and for that we appreciate her!

    Ashley Waterman Photography's reply:

    Cynthia and Ben, thank you truly for booking me when I barely have any reviews here on Wedding Wire. You trusted in my work and past experience to capture your engagement and wedding photos. What a great time we had! We had a blast during your winter e-session playing in the snow at Roger Williams Park and then an even better time in the fall at the Warwick Valley Country Club at your wedding. The day was perfect and the sun peaked out just for you during your formals.The best part of the day was photographing you in front of the fountain outside the church, just as you had always envisioned as a little girl. You looked stunning. You can tell that the love that you have is timeless and will last always. Thank you again for being such wonderful clients. It was wonderful working with you both and I hope to do so again one day soon! Happy marriage ; )
