    If you are looking for a dependable, flexible photographer who will put you at ease and feel like one of the family then I would highly recommend you book with Ashley. She worked within our budget to make sure we had a package that was affordable but worked for us! She also allowed me to change my engagement photo date at the last minute, made a rainy day look amazing and handled my crazy family at our wedding! She had ideas for photos I wouldn't even of thought of! Highly recommend!

    Ashley was the first vendor to make me feel like a real bride this year. I work in bridal myself and I'll spare the details but so many vendors really let me down but not Ashley! When we "met" online I had emailed plenty of photographers that weren't the right fit for us - they weren't able to customize a photo plan that was going to meet our needs and budget. They also didn't jump off the page the way she did. They attach their little rate sheets and cut and paste formulaic responses that can apply to any bride and groom. Not Ashley. She jumps right off the page as a the clear choice. She was chomping at the bits to be part of our day with heart not every business owner/artist has. When we spoke first by phone it was like my twin had entered the universe. Not only was she very, very responsive to all my emails all year when I just needed a sounding board on how my plans were shaping up and how that effected photo, but she was so flexible and supportive on our special day. (I think by the time we left the bridal suite we were an hour behind "schedule!") Ashley's way made the most camera shy guy at ease and I will never forget the fun stuff she had our bridal party do to help ease any awkwardness. Many people came up to me and told me how impressed they were with her ability to fit right in with everyone, address many by name and keep everyone having fun. The cherry on the sundae was when she gave such respectful and helpful marching orders for my visually impaired teenage brother. A lot of people sort of choke up and feel weird guiding someone with vision loss but it was very natural for Ashley to accommodate him and keep him comfortable too (and quickly as things move very fast!). Ashley is a true leader, artist and business woman and I can't wait to work with her again in the future and keep following her work online!

    Ashley was fantastic--many compliments from attendees that she was friendly, personable, and she didn't lose her cool despite so many folks using their own devices (even though we asked them not to...)! She got some great shots, on a windy and cold day, and captured moments I missed during the whirlwind. As someone who avoids having my picture taken at all costs, the day was a struggle for me, but Ashley made me laugh and forget my fears and double chin--if only for a moment!

    Ashley is the best of the best! She took our engagement and wedding photos and we receive compliments after compliments about her work every time we show a new family and friends a new picture. I am camera shy and from the first few minutes of meeting Ashley I felt completely at ease and like I was hanging out with a friend. For our wedding, she blended right in as a guest, no one even knew she was taking the amazing shots that she captured. We could not be more pleased and recommend Ashley every chance we get! (PS. She even provided us with a military discount, which was incredible! If you or your spouse serves and likes to support vendors who support us, make sure you check out Cleopatra Photography - you won't be disappointed!)

    Ashley was an absolute dream to work with. I ended up using her due to a cousin of mine getting married a few months before me. I had already booked another photographer with whom I'd worked closely with for years, but after talking to my cousin about the deal she was getting and peeking at Ashley's work, my husband and I decided to change photographers...and I'm SO glad we did!

    Ashley was very responsive to all of my needs and concerns without batting an eye. Upon inquiring about her service, I was sent a questionnaire so that she could get the gist of what my husband and I were looking for. I felt like she understood everything I was trying to achieve and made it happen. Her packages are customizable to fit your wedding needs. All you have to do is ask and I'm pretty sure she can make it happen. Two months before my wedding I actually changed my package with no problem what so ever. Our package included our engagement photo session. My husband is very camera shy and HATES to be the center of attention. He was dreading doing the shoot. We shot locally for a few hours and after we were done he told me he couldn't believe how comfortable Ashley had made him feel and how much fun he ended up having. He was extremely happy that we chose someone with such a good energy and spirit to capture our special day. On our wedding day, Ashley kept the flow going and the mood light. She thought of creative poses and didn't have everyone standing around during the photo time. She discreetly whisked my husband and I away for additional pictures later in the evening so that I could stick to my timeline without anyone the wiser. Ashley has a beautiful way with natural light and our photos came out stunning.

    We will continue to use Ashley as a photographer as our lives change and our family grows. If you're looking for an amazing photographer to capture your special moments there is no one I would recommend more highly than Ashley Nardello.

    Ashley and her team did an AMAZING job photographing our wedding this past September! Ashley made me feel super comfortable when posing for pictures, she made us laugh and had great ideas for new and different shots. She can also do some pretty cool things with a sunset, our pictures turned out better than I ever imagined! Ashley was so flexible with her time to make sure she was meeting our needs throughout the whole process. She was extremely organized and very reliable. She made sure we got through every shot we wanted to (without cutting into our party time). We happened to have a pretty windy day and Ashley did an awesome job finding us a first look spot that was amazing and blocked us from the wind. She was so much fun to work with and overall just an awesome person, not to mention offers a very competitive price. You can't go wrong choosing Cleopatra photography for you special day!

    Ashley was wonderful to work with. She was personable, professional and as someone who doesn't like their picture taken she made me feel very comfortable. I can't wait to work with her again when our baby is born!

    Cleopatra Photography is a must! Photographer and owner Ashley Nardello is professional, creative, and most of all, fun! The pictures that are coming back from our big night are breathtaking. From the engagement shoot all the way through to the last dance, Ashely's service and talents were second to none. I highly recommend this photography company to all engaged couples in MA.

    We could not have asked more from a photographer. Her unique perspective totally captured the spirit of our wedding. As an older bride I was a little apprehensive about the prospect of formal wedding pictures. However, from the moment she arrived Ashley put us all at ease and had us laughing throughout the night. I especially appreciated that she included my grumpy old dog in many of the shots. I can't recommend Cleopatra photography enough.

    Ashley was absolutely FANTASTIC! From the very first meeting we knew that she was exactly what we were looking for in our wedding photographer. Her style is so unique and creative and Ashley was extremely responsive to any and all of my questions from day 1. We were hesitant to do the engagement shoot as we are both uncomfortable in front of a camera, but Ashley convinced us it was a good idea and she was so right. The session was a blast and the photos were spectacular. We got to know her better and made us so much more comfortable for the actual wedding. We just got married and have not seen the full set of wedding shots yet, but I am so confident that they will be amazing and beyond what we could've hoped for. We will use Ashley's services again in the future and would highly recommend her!

    My husband and I knew we wanted a wedding photographer who would capture the candid moments of our big day in a unique way and make them works of art - Ashley Nardello at Cleopatra Photography absolutely did just that! Ashley was fantastic to work with for our engagement and wedding photos from start to finish. Our engagement session was a blast - she put us at ease right away and caught some awesome shots, while keeping us laughing the whole time (literally...). Definitely helped to get us warmed up for what to expect with the wedding day shots! She was extremely responsive and thorough leading up to the wedding, always making sure to answer any questions we had. Ashley showed up right on time on our wedding day, and captured the most incredible photos - I cannot say enough good things about how amazing her photography is! Our pictures have such a laid back, natural feel to them, which is exactly what we wanted, and I love the way Ashley captures the light in her images. We could not be happier with how our pictures have turned out so far and I'm dying to see the rest!

    We travelled over from Scotland to get married in Boston and I contacted Ashley via email, from that minute onward we knew she was the one for us. Great communication and unbelievable proffesnialism made our big day a dream and we absolutely love our photos. Very modern! Choose Ashley!

    Ashley was so amazing to work with. We had our wedding 2 weekends ago and Ashley arrived at the hotel and was such a positive ball of energy. Throughout the wedding and while getting our families together for photos (it was like herding cats) Ashley remained patient and professional the entire time. I would definitely work with her again in the future for other photo needs and I look forward to seeing what the photos look like.

    Ashely's photo's are simply beautiful and amazing. We used Ashley for our engagement / family photo's also. The turn around time to get the finished results could be a bit quicker but maybe that is because I am an anxious bride to see the results. Ashley is very creative and in tune with what the bride & groom want. Thank you Ashley

    Cleopatraphotography was great. Being that this was the first Indian wedding they photographed, they did awesome. I got exactly what I wanted and I definitely would recommend Cleopatraphotography to any couple. If you are in the southwest FL area, definitely use them. Thanks again for all the wonderful pictures. You made memories that will last a lifetime.
