HI, I'M ASHLEY
I have been in the photography world since 2017, and I shot my first wedding in 2019. Since then, my love of photography has grown into a deep passion for documenting love stories in a way that feels personal to each of my couples,
When I'm not behind the camera, I'm probably out browsing local shops, at the gym, or getting cozy at home watching a 90's or early 2000s rom-com for the millionth time. My favorite way to settle in to a full day of editing is listening to a good true crime podcast, or Taylor Swift on repeat.

‘Would 100/10 recommend Ashley as your photographer! I found her while Instagram stalking West Michigan wedding photographers and I'm so thankful I did. My husband and I typically hate taking photos but Ashley made us SO comfortable, she played music we liked, made us laugh, herded our bridal party around all day long and the photos are so magical.She is incredibly flexible in scheduling around weather and is full of fun ideas. I am so grateful to have found her and we absolutely love every single wedding photo. RUN don't walk, to book her for your wedding/engagement/life moments. You will not regret it!!

“Working with Ashley was such a positive and fun experience for my fiance and I during our engagement session and our wedding day! It was all so new to us, but Ashley made the timeline and process so easy by sharing an example layout, and provided recommendations on what has worked well from her experience. She was open and accommodating to what we were hoping to get out of our photos/our big day. Needless to say, we were very impressed with her work and vision for our day. We wouldn't change a thing!”

“I cannot explain how amazing Ashley is! After my husband and I had a terrible experience with a different photographer resulting in us canceling that contract. Ashley was absolutely amazing going above and beyond to make our day special. She is worth every penny and more. She made us feel so comfortable in photos and my wedding party was raving about how fun she was to work with! My only regret is that I didn’t find her earlier!!!!!!!”
