  Ashley is amazing!

  We worked with Ashley for our engagement photos and wedding photos and they are simply incredible. Throughout the process, she took time to get to know us as a couple and made our sessions fun and natural, despite being a little nervous. She went above and beyond-- including traveling to Acadia National Park for our engagement photos!
  
  On our wedding day, Ashley was a calm, fun presence and she captured every moment we could've hoped for (and more). Our first look and sunset pictures are incredible and in between, she made sure to catch our loved ones, every detail and special touch, and the fun moments in between. More so, she encapsulated our joy and happiness that will remind us of those feelings for years to come.
  
  We are so grateful she was with us for such a special day and can't recommend her enough. For an occasion as monumental as wedding, you want the best and that's Ashley!

  The absolute best!

  Choosing Ashley as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made! Not only is she super talented, but she also has the warmest and most bubbly personality that makes taking photos so fun. Our wedding party consisted of a lot of family and friends who had not all met before the big day because of travel restrictions, and Ashley has us laughing and definitely helped break the ice. We intertwined a few events from my cultural background and Ashley paid so much attention to learning about those details beforehand. I felt SO comfortable and confident in our choice. She captured all of our most treasured moments that we will cherish for the rest of our lives! 12/10- I HIGHLY recommend you check her out and book your special occasion with the best of the best!

  Awesome Photographer!

  My husband and I were SO blessed to have Ashley ( “Virginia Ashley”) and her team as photographers for our wedding weekend at Historic Rosemont. Ashley’s pictures are BEAUTIFUL! When you look at her photos of engagement rings and shoes and perfume bottles and flowers, her images are so creative and artistic, they look like they could be in an art gallery. And then there are Ashley’s “people pictures”, that are lovely and so full of life, too. One guest observed that Ashley had a special way of giving people direction when she was setting the scene for a picture, so that her photos look very natural and “ in the moment”, which is wonderful! Ashley has a real talent for both “formal” and “ informal” pictures and we love both kinds. And not only is she a very talented photographer, she is also a very nice lady who is so easy to work with. She is a thoughtful and sweet photo-artist. You’re a treasure Ashley! Our wedding weekend flew by so fast that we couldn’t take it all in—thanks to Ashley and her team we have a collection of beautiful picture-memories that we can cherish forever!

  Ashley was the first vendor booked for my daughter's wedding. Her positive attitude and can do spirit made the experience easy. The wedding day was cold and cloudy, But you would never know from the pictures. At the reception she had edited 20 pics from the wedding, yes the wedding that happens just 60 minutes before, to be viewed. Our guests loved it. Two weeks after the wedding over 1000 pics arrived on a drive in a beautiful box with printed copies of Ashley's favorite pics of the day, I can't imagine having another photographer photograph our family.

  Ashley is the BEST photographer. My husband hates getting his photo taken and Ashley made us feel at ease during the whole day. On our wedding day I had a fever, it was cold and windy and rainy. Ashley made portraits a breeze. She was soo cheerful and our photos turned out wonderful. Booking Ashley was the best decision I have ever made for my wedding. She documented the love and joy and you can see/feel that in our photos. Ashley kept me calm during the whole day and made sure everything was perfect. I loved being able to see a few of the photos at our reception. It made all the wind/cold so worth it! My husband's now requirement for any photos being done is that Ashley does it. She is so flexible and willing to do just about anything! I can not recommend her enough.

  I woke up a few weeks after my wedding longing to return to the best day of my life. Not soon after, Ashley sent me my full wedding album. It was nothing short of magical! Her photos instantly transported me back to every laugh, smile, and tear shed. Ashley has an amazing ability to capture the most significant moments and bring them to life through her photography. I found myself texting dozens of photos to my friends and family, claiming "No, THIS one is my favorite!" Not only is Ashley such a joy in every way, she has such a unique talent and artful discernment that makes her a master at her craft. Ashley invests her time and her heart into her clients, and her work speaks for itself. Her professionalism, positive attitude, and amazing talent took my wedding to the next level. Book with Ashley! You will be so happy that you did!

  If you are trying to find the perfect photographer, look no further!! Your wedding day is one of, if not THE, most important day of your life. Photography for me was one of my biggest priorities. I wanted to find someone who was extremely talented, personable, trustworthy, reliable, and professional. Ashley exceeded my wildest dreams and expectations! Ashley truly takes the time to get to know you, your vision of the day, and cares about you as a person. It is not simply a job to her. She is so passionate about what she does and you can just see how much joy she has serving others! Ashley is very encouraging. In choosing different vendors and people to work with in the whole wedding process, Ashley stood out as someone who goes above and beyond her job description.
  Ashley helped my husband and I both feel SO much more comfortable in front of the camera as we are both a bit shy in front of the camera. She is creative, willing to work with your ideas (aka crazy prop ideas), and I just love her photography style. Both our wedding and engagement pictures came out beautifully! I still look at them often! Ashley is worth every penny because she truly captures picture perfect moments with such clarity. Her picture quality exceeds any pictures I've seen and are simply stunning. I love that she also gives you complete access rights to the photos and offers them in different formats. We will definitely continue to use Ashley as our photographer for life! We have been so thankful for her talent, sweet personality, and character.

  We could not have asked for a better wedding/engagement photographer! Ashley is great at what she does and was so sweet and helpful during the entire process! She does a good job at making you feel comfortable during “awkward” posed photos. We took engagement photos on an overcast day in October and she did an amazing job at making the pictures look bright despite the weather. At the wedding, she captured the reception without being obvious (which naturally led to some hilarious candid dance photos!). Additionally, she went above and beyond helping with wedding details on the day of – I think at one point she was even carrying my heels around so I didn’t lose them! Afterwards she clearly worked so so so hard at getting our pictures back to us quickly. Our wedding blog was posted before our honeymoon ended and she sent us 700+ wedding photos within two weeks of the wedding, all of which looked fantastic. Plus! She gave us complete access rights to all photos and she even sent 3 different formats to download the photos. All in all – Ashely is absolutely amazing and we are so happy she was able to capture our engagement/wedding day for us!

  There are no words to describe how absolutely wonderful our experience was working with Ashley. Not only is she an incredible photographer who delivered stunning photos, but she is a kind and thoughtful individual who is willing to support her couples in any way possible. Stephen, our families, and I are highly pleased with quality and quantity of pictures that we have from our engagement session and wedding day. Ashley captured our love, happiness, and excitement in a way that makes me smile every time I look at our pictures. She was open to and encouraging of us sharing our ideas and wants for our pictures, as well as, provided us with her professional guidance. Many of our guests have also shared how polite and professional they felt that Ashley was. Outside of our engagement session and wedding day, Ashely checked in frequently to make sure that we had everything that we needed. When we decided to change our florist fairly close to the wedding, Ashley was the first person that we contacted. We knew that she would recommend someone that she felt would provide us with what we wanted, and we absolutely trusted her. I am grateful to have had the opportunity for Ashely to photograph our wedding and look forward having her document many more life events in the future!

  I am a behind the scenes kinda gal, so being photographed makes me a little nervous. I was referred to Ashley to be our wedding photographer for her laid back caring personality. When we met for the first time, I was beyond excited for her to be our photographer. Not only did she make me very comfortable, but she knew exactly the style I was going for. She has captured some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen, and images that go beyond my expectations. I am so thankful to have her as our photographer. <3
