hello sunshine!

I'M ashley

a Richmond, Virginia WEDDING & PORTRAIT Photographer

I’m Virginia Ashley, but my friends just call me Ashley! I’m a wedding photographer based in Richmond, Virginia. Even though I live in RVA, I travel all over for photography, which is awesome because I LOVE to travel! I’ve been as far as California and have my passport burning a hole in my pocket!

I’m married to my sweet firefighter husband! We met in college (where he had an awkward mustache hahaha). Thankfully that mustache is just a faded memory. We dated for 5 years then tied the knot in our college town. Now we have a beautiful daughter, Holly, and two crazy/cute dogs, Scout and Roux! We love trying new restaurants, dreaming up our next adventures, and finding new shows to binge together!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

From the first time we talked to her through her post wedding care she is the best!

Ashley was our wedding photographer and words cannot express how amazing she was throughout our entire wedding planning process. From the first time we talked to her through her post wedding care she is the best! Her talent and love of what she does shows through and we are obsessed with everything she does! If you are starting you wedding planning journey, Ashley is a perfect partner and you will be glad you picked her for your perfect day!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

I wish I could give Ashley more than 5 stars!

Not only are her photos fantastic, but she is a complete professional in every sense. She worked with me beforehand to ensure she knew special shots that I wanted, allowing her to take charge on the big way in the most graceful way (not pushy at all!). My bridesmaids and I had the best time, and the pictures turned out flawless. Plus, Ashley is super sweet, thoughtful, and funny – we were so happy to have her with us on our wedding day!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Anytime an occasion arises when we need a photographer I immediately think of her!

She is so friendly and personable, and immediately puts you at ease. Since then, she’s photographed our wedding, boudoir shots, and family pictures with our new son. Now, anytime an occasion arises when we need a photographer I immediately think of her. She is able to capture beautiful photos even when things aren’t going as planned (like when your son insists on scowling during the photoshoot) and has great suggestions to make you more comfortable (like having a little bourbon before the engagement session). Ashley is fantastic and I’d recommend her to anyone!
