New York City weddings are what dreams are made of.
No. 01
I’m a Manhattan, NYC local living in the heart of the West Village, and for the past 6+ years, I’ve had the absolute honor of documenting couples deeply in love. Photography has become so much more than just a career to me it’s a way of preserving the feeling of a season, a relationship, and the moments that matter most before they become memories.
My heart is for the NYC couple dreaming of a wedding day that feels effortlessly timeless. The kind of photography you’ll look back on years from now and still feel every emotion all over again. Whether you’re visiting New York for a single day, spending a season here, or calling this city home forever, I truly believe these moments are worth capturing.
my story
Hi, I'm Ash!
Your NYC Wedding Photographer.
A few things about me:
- I married my high school sweetheart, Corey
- My husky pup, Moosh, is my pride and joy
- Coffee is my love language
- I've run two marathons and I hope to complete a HYROX this year
- I love love and I think I have the best job in the world
"Get her, you will thank yourself later"
Ashley is the absolute best! She did my sister’s wedding in VA a few years back and she recently relocated to NYC, so it was meant to be! We did engagement pics in VA and she captured my wedding in NJ. she is the sweetest and has such a fun, yet calming energy! My now husband didn’t grow up taking pictures so he was extremely nervous for our engagement session. Ashley did such an incredible job at making us feel like friends, that by the end of the day, He was making silly faces and posing for her. On our special day, when little things would go wrong, like one of my bridesmaids going missing for pictures, she was like “it's ok, we’ll squeeze it in later. Let’s go take more bridal portraits and let you be a girl!” I don't think I would’ve been as relaxed as I was if it wasn’t for her! She goes above and beyond, get her, you’ll thank yourself later!!!

THE PROCESS of working with me
Ready to Start Your Journey?
Getting married in New York City is more than just strutting the streets. It’s kissing on the same bridge in Central Park from your favorite movie, sharing late-night pizza after your ceremony, and soaking in the feeling of being fully present together in one of the most iconic cities in the world. I believe the best photos come from moments that are genuinely felt, not overly posed. My approach is gentle, guided, and natural so you never have to wonder what to do or feel pressured to perform for the camera. Instead, I’ll help you settle into the moment, feel comfortable together, and create photographs that reflect your relationship as it truly is.

My priority is capturing your love story, not picture perfect photos
Absolutely! As a person and an artist alike, travel is one of my greatest joys. I have about 15 stamps on my passport, and am always looking to add some more. If my schedule allows, I can be anywhere your love story takes us. Near, far, by plane, by train - nothing will stop me from being there on your big day. Inquire today to chat some more.
01. DO YOU TRAVEL?
Travel costs can vary a lot, so I find it simplest to add travel as a separate cost. Whether it's a local wedding here in New York City or a destination far away, I always keep my travel expenses transparent and reasonable.
02. IS TRAVEL INCLUDED IN YOUR PRICING?
Your session can take place almost anywhere! Whether you envision strolling through the streets of Manhattan, wandering through Central Park, cozying up at your favorite coffee shop, exploring a waterfront location, or staying in the comfort of your home, I'm happy to help create a session that feels true to you and your story.
03. Where can i do my engagement session?
Expect a sneak peek of your photos within 1 week, and the full online gallery will be ready in about 6-8 weeks after your wedding. Lifestyle sessions, like families and seniors, can expect their full gallery in 2-4 weeks.
04. WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY GALLERY?
Most sessions allow for 1–2 outfits, depending on the collection you book. If you'd like multiple looks, I recommend choosing outfits that complement each other and can be changed quickly so we can maximize our time photographing. I always recommend wearing something that feels like you. Neutral tones, timeless pieces, and outfits that allow you to move comfortably tend to photograph beautifully.
05. How many outfits can I bring?
Yes, I do! Film photography is perfect for those who love a touch of nostalgia. We can add film to any package, charged by the roll — each giving you about 36 timeless photos. It’s a beautiful way to capture your day.

Johnny and I went on a morning date to look at our gallery and we’re so emotional. I’m grateful for you! Thank you so so much for capturing our day. We are in love with our photos and your editing style, and have received SO many compliments. I can’t wait to print them! You made our day run so naturally and smoothly, and everyone was raving about your presence. We can’t thank you enough."

"To any brides considering trusting Ashley to be their wedding photographer, DO IT! She communicated in a timely manner and truly sought to know me as a person. Her posing prompts throughout the wedding day made me and my husband feel so comfortable in front of the camera... Our families commented on how amazing Ashley was to work with as she efficiently, yet effortlessly, handled our big family during family portraits. With Ashley, you will not only receive beautiful pictures but a photographer who truly cares about you and your vision."
"Our pictures feel authentic to who we are as a couple!"
It was genuinely such a joy and blessing to have Ashley as our photographer. The way that she interacted with Rees and I made us feel so comfortable and gave us permission to just be our goofy selves, while also bringing out the most tender and sweet aspects of our love for each other. She made me feel so at peace all day and we’re so gentle yet confident in running the show. I’ve witnessed so many photographers be bossy and rude at other weddings and that couldn’t be further from who she is. We are so grateful for her and can’t wait to show off her beautiful work!
"She captured our love so perfectly..."
Ashley was absolutely amazing!! I am not very comfortable with having my photo taken but Ashley made me feel comfortable and confident. We had a few hiccups in our wedding... Ash hopped right in and handled everything. I didn't even hear about the issues until after the wedding was over! The photos turned out beautiful. Nothing felt staged or fake. She has the ability to capture a moment in a picture. You will not regret hiring her!
"Ashley did an amazing job capturing the rawness of each moment."
Ashley took our engagement photos (A.K.A my favorite photos I have ever gotten)! She offered us an experience that few photographers can give, which is making us feel completely comfortable behind a camera; feel like ourselves. We were absolutely blown away by her attention to detail, the quality of every photo, and how she managed to capture us in our best light. Her photos make you FEEL the emotion behind them. I will cherish them forever! I would recommend her to any and everyone.
"Ashley doesn’t just capture posed perfection, she captures memories and feelings."
