The Ashley difference
"BEST CHOICE WE MADE"
KARINA + MIKE
"We were planning a California wedding from Scotland. From the very beginning Ashley put us at ease and was extremely professional, organized, and personable.
On the day of our wedding, she jumped right in, making everyone feel comfortable.
It felt like Ashley was our old friend.
I really can't say enough amazing things about Ashley. She is the hardest working person and is so passionate about photography and people. If you are looking for an incredibly talented photographer and even better person, stop your search and snatch her up!"

"made us feel important"
carling + alanna
"From the moment we emailed Ashley, she was everything we could wish for and more. I seriously felt like I had one of my BFF's with me the whole day.
In fact, the time we spent taking pictures with her was one of my favorite parts of the day! Her pictures completely capture the emotion and feeling of the day. Every detail, every emotion is there.
Her work is beautiful, and she is extremely professional and prompt.

"i never felt
rushed"
Jacqueline + Edward
"Finding a photographer to hire was one of the most challenging things for me. It was the most important vendor I would hire. Even if my hair was amazing and my decorations were beautiful, it wouldn’t matter if the photographs didn’t capture that.
My entire wedding day I felt relaxed, I never felt rushed through pictures. Not only did she capture the most amazing images of my wedding day, but she is one of the most fun people to just hang out with. Because of Ashley, I get to relive my wedding everyday by looking at the pictures she took."

brett + brian
"Wildly talented and totally badass! You need Ashley in your life if you are going to be walking down the aisle.
It's like having your best-friend-turned-personal-assistant by your side on your wedding day.
Not only is she professional and an expert at her craft she takes the time to really get to know you and what's important to you on the big day."

How do you handle harsh desert light?
Desert sun is gorgeous… and totally unhinged.
The trick is knowing where to put you, when to shoot, and how to shape light so you still look like yourselves (not squinting, not washed out, not shadow-striped).
I’ll build your timeline around the best light, pick locations with flattering shade when we need it, and use the desert glow to our advantage—Palm Springs and Vegas are kind of my playground.
