    I am SO GLAD Smash Studio was recommended to me

    I don’t even know where to start. Ashley is just amazing. I didn’t know anything about her or Smash Studio when I first emailed her, I just knew she was recommended by a friend. I am so glad she was! Ashley had to put up with SO MANY emails, texts, and questions from me. She never complained. She always knew exactly what to say to make me feel better. She is SO GOOD at her job. The few pictures I’ve seen already (only married 4 days ago) are absolutely stunning. I cannot wait to see the rest. She was so efficient and did not waste time. She became a friend over the last year. My wedding date changed twice, once because of Covid and once (the night before..) due to a medical emergency- and she was so understanding, kind and flexible. I literally can’t say enough good things.

    I Came for the Boudoir Photography and I wish I Found her Sooner

    I did not use Smash Studios Photography for my wedding but I wish I had. My experience with my boudoir shoot made me realize Smash Studios Photography is at the top of many Memphis photographers you can choose. You can’t lose with Ashley of Smash Studios!

    Incredible

    Smash Studios was truly my saving grace on my wedding day. Not only was Ashley there capturing my special day, she was also my 8th bridesmaid, an extra wedding coordinator and like she states on her webpage, she was there making my day go smoothly. I can not recommend her enough. She is the BEST OF THE BEST!
    P.s.. check out her photos advertising Big Cypress Lodge Memphis, TN!

    Ashley is the best!

    Ashley was so easy to work with. She kept everything and everyone moving in such an efficient, perfect way that allowed everyone to still have fun and enjoy the day while still getting all the photos in that we needed. She made both of us feel so relaxed and comfortable the whole time. I will forever recommend her to anyone I know.

    We LOVE Smash Studios!

    If you are looking for a photographer who is attentive to detail, creative, punctual and just all-around awesome to work with, then Ashley is your girl! She did a phenomenal job with our engagement photos and even better capturing our wedding day. I knew the day after I got engaged that I wanted Smash Studios for our big day!

    Amazing Wedding Photographer

    Ashley was amazing to work with! She was so easy to get in touch with and went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was perfect capturing every detail beautifully. She was more than a photographer to us, it truly felt like one of out best friends was photographing us. She did so much more than we ever expected from a photographer by keeping us on our timeline, helping my mom bustle my dress, and so much more. The pictures are stunning and she captured every moment we had talked about and then some. We highly recommend Smash Studios!

    Destination Wedding Photographer

    There aren't enough good things that I can say about Ashley. I had my wedding in Mexico and I asked her if she would be willing to travel for my destination wedding. I asked her about 8 months in advance hoping she would have availability and she did! She needed me to provide flight and nights stay at the resort the night before our wedding and booking her was so easy. She was responsive to my requests/questions and even a better price than the resort photographer options! It was one of the best choices I could make. She was easy to communicate with on where we were, what we wanted and very professional the whole time. I had her bring a colleague Jackie with her so that we could have two photographers and it worked out great! We were able to get getting ready photos of both the girls and guys and every picture we got back-out of almost a 1000 were all amazing! We got our pictures back about 8 weeks after our wedding and I cannot stop looking at them. If you need a photographer in the midsouth area or even destination like I did, I highly recommend Ashley. She knows what she is doing and always striving to go above and beyond with her pictures. I got the classic shots as well as some amazing photos with the water/waves in the background. I'm very happy with how everything turned out!

    Green Door Gourmet Nashville 10.27.18 Wedding

    We had the perfect experience with Ashley on our wedding day! Not only did our photos turn out incredibly well, she's super calm and collected on the big day... which makes you that way as well. Professional and in control the entire day and evening. We highly recommend Smash Studios!

    Ashley was SMASH'ing

    y'all - Ashley is awesome!! Ashley met with my fiance and I to explain options and details and did a great job talking to us so that we could understand the options. Ashley had us fill out a form so that we wouldn't miss any day-of shots AND she learned our family member names so that she could reference them in pictures! To top it all off, her prices were great and turn around was FAST!! Oh.. did I mention that we got to keep ALL of our edited images!?! No joke.. she is the real thing!! Check out her photographs - she studied under Memphis' #1 wedding photographer - seriously.

    Absolutely beautiful, perfect wedding photography!

    Working with Ashley for our wedding day photography was easily one of the best decisions we made! From our very first conversation, she was friendly and professional, helping us both plan out our photos but also various elements of our wedding. Our wedding happened to take place mid-snowstorm in Nashville and without hesitation, she drove across the state (through crazy weather!) to make sure she was able to be there with us! Ashley took every element of our style and personalities into consideration as she photographed our day and thought of every location, combination, and picture that we could have dreamed of. She has a gift of being right in the action, but without any distraction. We have gotten so many compliments on the quality and beauty of our wedding photos, and all the credit goes to Smash Studios! It was so comforting to have someone documenting our wedding day that truly cared about her work and worked hard to communicate everything ahead of time so that we could be fully present and enjoy our day. She went above and beyond the normal responsibilities of a photographer and was so helpful! Most importantly, all of our other vendors spoke so highly of Ashley's professionalism and full engagement in our day. We can't wait to work with her again over the coming years to document all of our special moments. I cannot recommend Ashley and Smash Studios Photography enough!!

    Excellent!

    So the one thing you do not want on your wedding day is rain and unfortunately it rained on my wedding day. Ashley knew I was bummed but she went above and beyond to get the perfect shots. She stood in the rain, while we were covered, and continued to rock it! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you Ashley!!

    Easily the best money you will spend on a wedding vendor

    I only interviewed one person to be my wedding photographer, and that was Ashley. I knew I loved her photography style from other weddings I had seen, but the decision was easy after talking to her and hearing how organized and professional she is. She is easily the best money you will spend on a wedding vendor and I could not recommend her more. Not only is Ashley an excellent photographer (who actually STUDIED photography...no silly, trendy filters that will go out of style here!), she is also an amazing resource for the rest of the planning process. She's thorough, efficient, clear as day, flexible, easy to get along with, and super talented. Our pictures turned out beautifully, and I am so pleased with the results. Book her ASAP!

    Ashley will be the best decision you make for your wedding

    Hire Ashley. I'm not trying to be dramatic, but hire her. She is the [hands down] best decision we made while wedding planning. Ashley will not just be your photographer, she will also be you're #1 go to before your weeding, on your wedding day, and post wedding. She will make you feel beautiful (even in Memphis in July), and she will make you look even better. Hire Ashley. You'll never make a better decision.

    Absolutely outstanding

    Ashley is absolutely wonderful, professional, and worth every single penny. Both her and my videographer played a second role as a wedding planner for me and kept the day rolling smoothly. Her work is incredible and I love each and ever photo I received back. I would choose her time and time again and highly recommend her to any MEMPHIS (or Nashville) bride!

    Absolutely amazing! worth every penny spent! Ashley was immensely organized and professional, and very quick to respond. I especially liked that she required you to give a list of the photos you wanted to make sure to get. And the photos were amazing; got them back in 4 and a half weeks!

    I used Smash for both my wedding and engagement photos.

    Ashley with Smash Studios went above and beyond my expectations for my wedding photography! Absolutely blown away. She has so much talent! The edited photos we received were not only beautiful and have received so many compliments, we received them a little over a month after the wedding. She captured our wedding day perfectly. Through our photos, you can clearly see our wedding SO much fun!

    Ashley is so hard working for her brides before, during and after the wedding. Not only is she a wonderful person to work with, she's an even better friend. She makes you feel so comfortable before and during photos; I was super anxious before our engagement photos and Ashley gave me wonderful tips to help ease my stress.

    I normally wouldn't give a service 5 stars, but Smash Studios Photography has earned each star and then some. She is understanding, willing to work with busy client schedules and compassionate for people who have pre-wedding jitters. I don't know what we would have done on our wedding day without Smash Studios. They are not afraid to go the extra mile for their clients. At one point, Ashley even got me ice while I was overheating in my dress. Photographer, friend and extraordinary service. Ashley and her team were able to capture some of the most beautiful images depicting the life and love that my husband and I have for one another. I cannot thank Smash Studios enough for everything they did to make our big day even better.

    Ashley is amazing!! Finding a photographer is such an important decision because they are there to capture those special moments throughout your important day. My husband and I knew she was the one we wanted to capture our moments as soon as we met her. She loves what she does and it shows. She is enthusiastic, organized, prompt, and creative.
    She is so talented! Our pictures turned out beautifully. We would recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer!!

    Ashley was amazing right from the start! My husband and I fell in love with her energy and enthusiasm. Since our wedding was a destination wedding, Ashley worked well to coordinate plans with our travel agent. We even worked it out with Ashley to shoot some photos at our welcome reception the evening prior to our wedding. The entire day, Ashley took care of our entire group. Kept everyone on schedule and smiling the entire time. No words can express how happy we were with all of the photos taken. Not only was Ashley the best decision of our destination wedding, she will forever be our photographer for other events in the future. I recommend her for any event you have planned.

    Ashley with Smash Studios was on the ball during this whole process. She is thorough, organized, and not to mention a wonderful photographer! She was very professional, personable, and definitely knew what she was doing. She helped keep our wedding on track since she is so organized. We got our beautiful wedding photos in about 7 weeks (in the time frame promised). I love all the photos and she definitely captured one of the most important days for us. Thanks, Ashley! Two thumbs up, highly recommend.

    Ashley is so sweet... she made my day stress-free and so memorable. Her boyfriend was the second shooter and he did just as great of a job getting both angles of our wedding day! We will deff book them for our 1 year pics and if we ever need any other pics done. She and her boyfriend were amazing and soooo much fun to work with! Your missing out if you do not book Smash Studios!!!

    When it came time for Brad and I to plan our wedding, I knew there were two things (other than the groom himself) that were most important to me. Two things I wouldn't settle for these than perfect: my dress an my photographer. The dress was easy. The first dress I tried on in a local Denver boutique was the one. I fell in love, and if I had to do it again, I'd choose the same one over and over again. Now, the photographer, that was easier! I've known Ashley for a few years, and I had no doubt in my mind that I wanted her to be a part of our day. She was there for us the night we got engaged, and we didn't want our wedding to be any different. She came all the way to Denver to shot a wedding at a venue she had never seen. You would have never known it! She did such an amazing job at capturing the love and happiness that surrounded us that day. Now that the wedding is over, everything has just become a memory. All the decorations, the fancy foods, and the fun music is all behind us. The one thing we still have is our beautiful photographs. That's why I wouldn't settle. When it's all said and done, the pictures are all that lasts. And our pictures are amazing. Our pictures are breathtaking. Our pictures are forever! We can't thank Ashley and Smash Studios enough for being such an amazing photographer, person, and friend!

    Where do I even start?!? I knew from the moment Brandon and I got engaged I would be very picky choosing my photographer. I wanted to make sure I chose the right one because I knew I would always cherish them. Brandon and I instantly clicked with Ashley, after our first meeting. When we left, we just knew she was the one we wanted to book for our BIG DAY, she was so organized and we knew we needed that!

    She did our engagement session in Nashville, at Long Hunter State Park, and all of our pictures turned out amazing from that session! Ashley was also so great with any questions I ever had, it was such a stressful time and she always gave me wonderful advice. I also booked a bridal session with her which we had to reschedule a couple of times due to weather...but we finally ended up getting to take them. I was pleased with every single one of them!

    Now to our BIG DAY... It was an amazing day and Ashley and Jody did a great job with keeping everyone in order and on a time schedule! I LOVE every single one of my photos, and I will cherish them forever! Ashley gets all of your pictures back to you in a timely manner, even in the middle of wedding season when she is swamped. She knows you and your family are excited to see all of them from any session you may have!

    All we have to say is we love Smash Studios Photography!

    P.S. The packages are awesome and give you so much more than just the photography!

    The photographs were absolutely the most important thing to me for my wedding, and Ashley nailed every single one of them. They are GORGEOUS! Ashley is efficient, professional, and was so helpful the day of the wedding (because of course I was running late! Haha) She made me feel so at ease, and was so well organized that my tardiness was barely noticed. The photos of my wife and I capture our personalities perfectly, and the reception photos show just how much fun everyone was having! It was so dark in there, but she worked with it and the images are a hit with all of our guests. Ashley also was able to do some engagement pictures for us to display on the sign in table, and everyone absolutely loved them. I will be graduating from the University of Memphis in May, and have already talked to her about doing grad photos in a few months. I highly recommend Smash Studios to anyone looking for a great experience, beautiful photos, and affordable prices!

    I could not be more thrilled with my experience with Smash Studios Photography. Ashley is one of the sweetest, most fun, genuine, and talented people I've ever met. I booked Smash Studios Photography solely from one of my bridesmaids talking about how great Ashley was and how she took incredible pictures and was more helpful than the wedding coordinator that day. This was my experience as well! Ashley was efficient, organized, and reliable throughout the whole process. Ashley shot my engagement pictures as well as wedding pictures. She enhanced our wedding in every way. My bridesmaids and wedding guests talked about how much fun it was to have Ashley around that day and how comfortable she is to be around, which makes for great candid pictures! She is so fun to joke and hang out with on your wedding day, while also managing to capture perfect unseen moments as well that make your day uniquely yours. Not only is she such a joy to be around, but she is incredibly talented and hard working. Ashley had my ENTIRE wedding pictures edited and ready for me to look less than one week after my wedding. She takes absolutely gorgeous pictures and is phenomenal at capturing special moments. She 100% made our wedding experience perfect and I am so thankful I used her to capture such a special day. My husband and I will treasure her pictures for forever and cannot recommend her enough.

    Ashley was amazing! If I could rate her a higher score, I would. She was so helpful throughout the whole process. She was very flexible with meeting times and was very quick to respond. The pictures she took were amazing. I have received so many compliments! Many of my friends have even said they wish they had her as their wedding photographer. Smash Studios Photography is definitely worth every penny!

    Ashley takes the most amazing pictures! One of ours looks like it should be on the cover of a bridal magazine because it's so beautiful! We had a barn reception at a nature preserve and the picture she took is at night with some kind of magic so the picture is illuminated from the back while my husband dipped and kissed me- its absolutely gorgeous and she is a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She really knows how to make sure you get all the pictures you need :)

    Ashley is a ROCKSTAR. She asked my valuable questions that made a huge difference in my photos. I am a plus size bride and was overly concerned with having a double chin in my photos. Ashley was really helpful with choosing positions that were flattering. My photos are amazing. She highlighted our character and style perfectly and paid attention to detail. She even asked for a list of photos that I wanted taken at the wedding. She made every aspect of our wedding enjoyable. I didn't have to worry about what they were doing. I knew she had our best interest in mind. We LOVE smash studios!

    She also is super quick to respond through social media and over text/phone.

    Ashley did my engagement pictures, my boudoir shoot, and my wedding pictures! Ashley is a pure joy to work with, she is very understanding and works hard to listen to what you want so she is able to make you 100% happy. She did a phenomenal job when she first met my husband and myself at our engagement session. She was very flexible with her schedule after we had to reschedule 3 times because of rain! She got our photographs back to us in a timely manner and we were still able to send out save the dates! She listened to my feedback, I'm very picky, about our photographs and she made the necessary changes to make my wedding photographs perfect!!

    She also did my boudoir photo shoot and bound a book for me so that I could give it to my husband as his wedding gift! It turned out perfect! She was so wonderful and always made an effort to make me and my family feel comfortable about the service we were receiving! She also did a great job incorporating my dog into all our wedding moments! We are so blessed to have had her as a photographer and now a friend! We have even scheduled a "Mini session" with her in two weeks for some holiday photos! THATS HOW MUCH SHE ROCKS! Book her, she is the best!

    A picture is worth a 1000 words, but that would still not be enough to express our gratitude towards Smash Studios.

    Smash Studios did both our Engagement and our Wedding Photos. Every picture we received is incredibly beautiful and edited, and we received over 500+ pictures! They were able to capture every moment of our wedding in a way that we will allow us to go back and relive our night for all of our years to come. Needless to say, I have the best problem a new bride could have, I have so many amazing photos that I can't pick a favorite!
    Ashley and Jodi arrived before we arrived at the venue and were very professional, including their attire, but still playful enough to make our pictures so much fun! Ashley even stepped in to make sure we were on schedule, something I was not on top of. There is no question that I would recommend Smash Studios to any future bride.

    Thank you so much SMASH STUDIOS! You really are the best!

    Smash studio photography was absolutely amazing! They were super easy to work with. Even when I changed up plans or times, they were more than happy to work with me. On my wedding day they were on time and eager to be there. After all the photos were edited and given back to me, I was more than thrilled. The photos were absolutely amazing! I was extremely happy and couldn't have asked for a better photographer. I would recommend them to any and everyone!!

    Smash Studios Photography did an outstanding job at my wedding. She helped keep me sane the months leading up to it and was so prepared. I didn't have to worry about anything. Ashley and Jody had all the pictures taken in such an orderly fashion. They were so much fun and you could see how emotionally invested they are in each client they photograph. I got my pictures sooner than expected and when I saw them I was in shock. She captured my wedding so beautifully that I got to relive my special day through the pictures she had taken. I cried like a baby. They were all so beautiful, I couldn't decide which ones were my favorite. I will definitely use Ashley and Jody again for all of my photography needs. They are the best!!

    Ashley & Jody did a wonderful job on my wedding this summer and our engagement pictures this past fall. I am in love with my wedding pictures! They are perfect and captured our day even better. Her pricing was wonderful even had a deal for booking engagement and wedding with her. She has also shot pictures of my niece and nephew which were about the age of 8 months and 4 years old. She was so patient and knew exactly how to pose them for the pictures to be great. I'm so sad she has moved to Nashville, but hopefully I can get her back to make my family portraits in the future. Would use her again and recommend her to everyone I know.

    Ashley and Jody did an amazing job photographing my wedding day! They went above and beyond to capture the most creative and beautiful pictures. The editing was fantastic and I appreciated the CD so that I could easily print and share with family and friends! I was a little disappointed that there weren't more photos of my family and guests enjoying themselves at the reception, but overall, the pictures turned exactly how I imagined and wanted.

    Honestly, weddings are probably the most memorable and forgettable days of our lives. Sure, we can remember parts, what music was playing, what the weather was like, but honestly, how much of that day is really absorbed? For me, being a bride, I don't remember much other than the flurry of activity, trying to fix bouquets and making sure all the grooms were accounted for and had their suits. I relied on the pictures that Ashley and Jody captured to document the day, and all I can say is, 'Was the weather really that nice? And someone actually found pumpkins to put out for our decorations!'

    Initially, I was so caught up in trying to control the mounting anxiety brought on by the delivery of incorrect flowers and last minute change of hairstylist that I never really noticed how everything was going, or who was even there. I was blown away by the detail and emotions of our guests that they were able to capture during the ceremony and reception. Having spoken to Ashley during our consultation about my own inexperience with photos, she was able to make suggestions and talked with me during the event to make sure everything I wanted was documented. Both Ashley and Jody made sure to keep the mood as light as possible and keep our minds off the normal stresses of wedding events. Overall, I was completely blown away by the photos they were able to capture and help me remember such a wonderful day in my life.

    I was extremely pleased with how professional the photographers were. It was a great relief to have such an organized, personable team taking photos on such an important day in our lives. They were prompt and friendly to my wedding party, parents, and quests. Also, they displayed great creativity with my shots and gave me pictures I will treasure for the rest of my life. I would suggest Smash Studios Photography to any of my friends or family.

    Ashley was wonderful to work with for engagement pictures. The original date we had picked we had to change at the last minute due to the weather. Ashley was flexible and willing to work with us to find another date. The turn around for our pictures was as promised and I could not be more thrilled with the quality of work that she did. She captured Clay and I in our element and they are perfect!

    As a very organized and detail-oriented bride, I was so glad to find a photographer who was very professional and clear about the specifics of how the photography would be managed on our wedding day. I appreciated Ashley's positive attitude and high energy throughout the whole wedding day. She was affirming and up beat when I needed it most.

    Great photographer, friendly and easy to work with!

    Pictures can be a stressful part of the process because they are what last "forever" from this huge day. What was so great about Ashley is we could tell she's done plenty of weddings before ours, leaving it easy for her to remember the little details we would forget due to it being our wedding day and also never having been the bride and groom in a wedding before. Not only was the quality of the pictures great, she was so easy to work with the day of, and that really did make our wedding day better. She was thorough before the day of the wedding, leaving it less stressful when the time came.

    Ashley was the most perfect photographer for our Memphis wedding. She was extremely flexible and accommodating of my specific requests regarding pictures. She also made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera considering we had never had professional pictures taken. Also the photos from our engagement and wedding were perfect! I would recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a photographer

    It has been over two years since my wedding, and I still treasure the photos Ashley took - and I know I will for years to come! On the day of my wedding, Ashley was not only my photographer, but I felt like she was really there for me. For example, when there was a hiccup at my reception, she was right by my side and did problem-solving in the moment to alleviate my stress. I also thought she did a great job of being assertive and giving direction, especially to the wedding party as we were taking group photos. This made the whole process run smoothly and efficiently. She was very personable when interacting with people on my wedding day, and that is important to me. OH! And let me talk about the value - Ashley's prices are extremely reasonable, and I think you will realize this if you do your research when planning your wedding. I would definitely recommend!

    I planned my wedding in only 1 month so initially I was very worried about finding a talented photographer in such a short amount of time! Ashely was recommended to me by a few friends but since she was fairly new I was hesitant. Thankfully, after meeting with her I knew I had nothing to worry about! She was professional and efficient with the short amount of time we had! She asked what was important to me for capturing on the day and got a good understanding for what I was looking for over all in a photographer. It rained on my wedding day, so things were much different than we planned, yet she still was able to get great and creative shots inside my venue! Our CD was sent to us quickly which is always a plus! Since then, I've seen Ashley, her business, and her photography skills improve greatly! She's was easy to get along with and made the entire process a joy!

    I found Ashley on the internet after having no luck with anyone in our area. From the initial discussion, Smash studios were much more affordable than most. She is so helpful and concerned for the bride's needs. I felt as though I was talking to someone I had known for years. We did not meet until the day of bc of distance. But we did have video calls to do our meetings. On the day of, it rained a bit. Ashley and Jody were so accommodating. They captured every picture I wanted plus some. Our pictures turned out beautifully and I cannot wait to display them in our home. They perfectly captured the love my husband and I have for each other.

    Ashley and Jody shot my husband and I's wedding; afterwards we reached out and Ashley did little to compensate for our concerns. There are few photos of the wedding processional going down the aisle except one of the flower girl from the back and one of me (the bride). Nothing of my parents, grandparents, ushers, or ring bearer. When pushed, Ashley sent 3 perfectly beautiful pictures for us to have of my mom and brother and my grandparents; these 3 were priceless to me and she may not think they are technically beautiful, but they are to me. I wanted more as my processional still is not documented fully. She shot and edited down to one for me to 'choose' from and I would have preferred more. This happened with many pictures. They left my wedding before the last dance or our real exit. It was unexpected. Ashley claims this was all pre-determined in our meetings. We discussed that the wedding was planned to go on until ~11, not that she had a hard stop at 11. She also claims that she didn’t know we wanted our real exit to be captured – this makes no sense. People hire a photog because they want to have their whole wedding documented. The pictures were strange at times. They include close ups of food like baked beans, hamburger buns and many individual pieces of pie but no close up pictures of our table flowers or guest tables. Our pre wedding consultations were focused on her & Jody and their trip to Italy, not me or my husband. While this should have been a red flag, I decided to book her because of the good deal and her beautiful wedding pictures on Facebook. Ashley spelled our last name wrong on the wedding cd label and the hundreds of pictures. She glazed over my concerns and said many things like “I invite you to look at your contract”. I would have more respect if there was an acknowledgment that it wasn't work that I am happy with. It did not capture my wedding the way I wanted and I felt she was more concerned with her vision than mine.
