Weddings
It is arguably the most important investment you’ll make because it is the one aspect of your day, when all is said and done, that will live on forever.
As a photographer, and a bride once myself, I know how important photography is to a couple.
If you’ve found your way to my little corner on the internet, it’s clear you’re looking for a photographer to document all the goodness and I’m so happy you’re here. Finding a wedding photographer, or any vendor for that matter, can be a daunting task because there are so many talented creatives in this space. Selecting the perfect vendors that speak to you both as a couple and your day is truly the coal that lets this train roll!
You’re getting married - that is major!
Well, first off, CONGRATS!
- feeling every bit of that once-in-a-lifetime emotion. Throughout my life I always found myself going into my parents attic and bins digging out old photos. I would stare and sort through photos for hours in absolute awe at the treasures I had in my hands, living in wonder and feeling such emotion in a single frame. Knowing that one day future generations will do the same in your attics and bins fuels my soul.
Your wedding photos should allow you to relive your day and take you right back into those moments
I believe that every client’s wedding should be treated as an individual experience that I am fully present for, and that is why I only take on a certain amount of weddings per year. I tend to walk through the wedding planning process with you as so much more than a photographer. Wearing multiple hats just kind of happens.
Need a friend? I’m there. Need to talk through family dynamics? Let’s chat. Need me to hold your bouquet or veil? I’ve got you. Making others feel genuinely seen, heard, and comfortable is such a key ingredient to how people translate on camera and the overall success of a working relationship. As much as I want you to fall back into the moment when you look at your wedding photos, I want you to feel completely centered and in the moment on your special day.
experience
Aside from beautiful images, is absolutely everything!
01 / 07 next
Let’s connect! Feel free to fill out the form on my contact page and let’s start discussing the details of your special day. From there, I’ll be able to provide you with proper pricing and we can set up a phone call or Zoom to talk more in depth. This is a great introduction and way for us both to get a feel for one another! Feeling 100% about each vendor you hire is essential and it’s such an important aspect during the planning process.
Step I: INTRODUCTION.
02 / 07 next
After our call, I will soft hold your date for 7 days and wait to hear if you'd like to move forward. If you both would like to move forward (YAY!), I'll send you the contract and invoice where you can provide your first payment. Everything is completed digitally all in one sweep!
Step II: SIGNED, SEALED, DELIVERED - I'M YOURS!
03 / 07 next
Following getting everything secured, we can begin discussing when you both would like to shoot your engagement session. Typically, most engagement sessions take place 6-8 months out from the wedding, but you can redeem this complimentary session whenever you'd like through the planning process. If you plan to use images for your Save the Dates, we'll want to coordinate a time that works well for when you'd like to send them out! All engagement photos are delivered through an online password-protected gallery within a week.
Step III: ENGAGEMENT TIME.
04 / 07 next
About 4-6 weeks out from the wedding, we'll want to set up a Zoom call to solidify the final photography timeline, day-of logistics, and family checklist to ensure we're all on the same page and can make your wedding day run as smoothly as possible. This is a great opportunity to ask any last minute questions before the big day!
Step IV: FINE TUNE AND STREAMLINE.
05 / 07 next
Basically, the best day ever has arrived! We made it! Time to celebrate and watch all your hard work unfold, and I'll be there every step of the way documenting. I always arrive early (being on time is late in my eyes!) to check in and to see how everything is going before I start working for the day. My sole priority is for you to have the most memorable, special day of your life. Leave the timeline and backend "stuff" up to your vendors to execute! Let's go!
Step V: THE MOMENT WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR. IT'S GO TIME!
06 / 07 next
Within 24 hours, I will send you a sneak peek of your wedding day! I know how anxious you are to see your photos - and let's be real, I'm so excited to edit them - so I always give clients a little glimpse into their day to tie you over until their full wedding gallery is delivered. You can feel free to share images with family, friends, and on social media as you wish!
STEP VI: A LITTLE PEEK.
07 / 07 next
The wait is over! Wedding galleries are delivered within 6-8 weeks of your wedding day. All galleries are sent through email and you are free to download your high resolution images, send to family and friends, and/or purchase prints! Enjoy! This is the best step in my opinion. ;)
STEP VII: TIME TO RELIVE THE BEST DAY EVER.

Base collections include a minimum of 6 hours of coverage, two photographers, and an online gallery of digital images for download. Contact for more detailed pricing.

Wedding FAQS
Typically, most clients book me anywhere from 1-2 years out from their wedding day, however, if I am available on your date in the same calendar year - count me in! You have your best chance at securing me for your date by inquiring as soon as possible.
YES! I travel often for work and I am passport ready.
I never give a hard amount to clients because I would hate to promise a number I can't come through with. The nature of each day is so different and the amount of coverage you decide on will impact that number. You CAN expect between 500-1000 images regardless.

Yes! In fact, this is a perfect introduction and way for us to get to know each other a little more. I don't know about you, but sometimes hearing a person's voice makes the decision making process feel easier. It's so important to "click" with any wedding vendor you hire since they are responsible for producing your day. A call is the perfect way to seal the deal!
“Not only is she the most amazing photographer ever but her heart to love and serve people is just above and beyond. Ashley wasn’t just there to take pictures of our wedding, but was there to genuinely celebrate and love on us through every part of our journey. She captured some of our most beautiful and important moments in such a sweet and loving way and she never stopped encouraging us. She made us feel like the most beautiful couple and family that she had ever seen. She laughed with us, supported us, celebrated us and loved on us for one of the most meaningful days of our lives. Our wedding would not have been the same without her. Plus, her pictures are AMAZING! We love you Ashley and the joy, love, gentleness and encouragement that you bring to every person you come in contact with! Thank you for celebrating each part of our story with us! You were the easiest decision we ever made and the only person that we wanted to capture our story. Thank you for loving us and just always being the amazing person you are! We love you.”
"Ashley is the BEST! "
