ELISE & PAT

Ashley is the photographer you want at your wedding. Her photos are beautiful (we did a mix of digital and film) and almost seem like paintings. We wanted the pictures to look like the actual day, not too stylized or over-edited, with a mix of candids and thoughtful compositions. Ashley did all that and more - her secret superpower is her ability to capture our feelings and not just our faces. We are instantly transported back to the day when we look back at our photos. She’s also incredibly organized, responsive, creative, and just great to be around!! We opted for the package that included the engagement shoot and that was absolutely the right decision. It was so great getting to know her before the wedding and have pictures to use for save the dates and the website. She also works fast - we got some sneak peek photos the day after the wedding and the full album about 6 weeks after that. Truly couldn’t have imagined it looking better or like anything else. Now you just have to meet her and see for yourself!!

10/10 would recommend! Ashley did such a good job with both our engagement and wedding photos. She captured so many beautiful moments in a way that felt authentic to our experience. Looking at our photos is like reliving the day. We got married outside in nature, and she did an amazing job of capturing the beauty of the park. She also got my young nephews to look at the camera and smile! Ashley's presence helped me to feel relaxed and confident. She encouraged us to be in the moment but also gave direction on how to pose when I was looking for it. She was organized and reliable throughout the planning stages and on the day of. She put together the most comprehensive schedule for the day which really helped to set me at ease in the weeks leading up. I can not recommend her enough.

We took engagement photos with Ashley. Being my first photo shoot, I wasn't sure what to expect and felt pretty nervous going into it. Ashley was kind, made us laugh and also made us feel at ease! She took wonderful photos and the experience was great. She was easy to work with and I appreciated that she was considerate of our wants/opinions for the photos as well. For example, she guided us throughout the shoot but then asked if there was anywhere/anything else we wanted to shoot. We enjoyed our experience and definitely recommend Ashley!

Ash made my husband and I feel so well taken care of on the day of our wedding. We did not have a traditional wedding at all, and she listened to our ideas and requests and made us feel so comfortable and actually have fun posing for photos as a couple and with our guests and family. We had 3 locations for our wedding - the ceremony in a garden, the reception in an intimate restaurant, and the after party in a beer garden. Ash came with us to each space and like a fly on the wall captured so many excellent candid moments. I feel like she really understood the vibe and tone of our celebration and captured it perfectly - we love the photos (which she got to us so quickly and even mailed us prints)!
We definitely recommend Ash to any couple, and can say for other queer couples you will be well cared for and your photos will be as unique and special as your union :) Thanks Ash!

Ashley was perfect - she captured all our special moments and then some. It was the exact aesthetic and edit that we wanted. Our ceremony was outside and our photos are the perfect reflection of the beautiful nature landscape we were in. We barely noticed she was taking photos so we were able to stay in the moment - which is also exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend!

My wife and I are so pleased to have found and chosen Ashley Smith to be our wedding photographer! From start to finish, the whole process was a pleasure. We were put at ease from the start during the planning phase and continually felt we were getting professional, reliable, and accommodating service. The day of couldn't have gone better... Ashley was graceful and showed tactfulness when dealing with guests of honor and the venue. Her creativity resulted in an amazing final product that we will cherish forever. Thank you Ashley!

I am so glad I hired Ashley as my wedding photographer. It was one less thing I had to stress about on the day of. –Kerry & Josiah

Ashley was amazing to work with. She met with me via Zoom and then again with both me and my now husband to ensure she knew exactly what we were looking for from a photographer. I explained that I really didn't want too many posed pictures since I thought they tended to look fake. Ashley listed to my wants, and incorporated that into the "posed" pictures we did take. She managed to ensure we still looked like we were alive even in the more stiff family shots.
We had Ashley as our main photographer and Candice as our second shooter. Candice went with the gentlemen in the morning for their getting ready and captured all the fun and excitement. I am so glad I hired Ashley as my wedding photographer. It was one less thing I had to stress about on the day of, as she clearly knew what she was doing and how to take the best photos.

Ashley was fantastic! We hired her for our engagement photos, and she was very communicative and flexible. She was so relaxed and friendly-- she totally put us at ease and we had a lot of fun during the photoshoot. The images look fantastic, and we can't wait to hire her again for future work!
