"Ashley’s work is stunning! My husband and I booked her for our wedding in 2020. We had to reschedule to 2021 due to Covid and she was incredibly flexible, professional, and understanding during challenging times in her industry when many other vendors were not. On our wedding day, she made posing feel effortless and stress-free when we have never had professional photos taken. I loved some of the different fields of focus she used in different photos; extremely delicate and unique! I feel like we got the deal of a lifetime with the prices she has and the incredible photos and memories we now have thanks to her artistry! I cannot recommend her more highly!"

"Ashley was absolutely AMAZING when she did our engagement pictures! I am very OCD and want every hair in place and every wrinkle out in pictures. She was on it without me even having to ask. My finace hates taking pictures and she kept things moving and fun. When we got home I said to him see that wasn't that bad was it, and his response was, no not at all. He has tattoos and I didn't want them prominent in our pictures. Ashley remembered this throughout the shoot and would retake pictures to work around them. She included my bonus daughter in our pictures and she met ALL of my expectations! We can't wait for her to capture our wedding day! She will be our photographer for the rest of my life!  Thank you Ashley for everything!!!"

"I follow several photographers on Facebook and Instagram and Ashley’s work is top notch. I loved working with her. She caught our whole wedding from start to finish perfectly. Went for a hike with us for our engagement pictures. I could not ask for a better photographer for our special day."
