Ashley is truly beautiful in every way and is INCREDIBLY talented. I was honored to have her capture our special day. My family and in-laws raved about her for days - she was fun, patient, personable, and made each of us feel comfortable and special. She is SUCH a blessing! Ashley is exceptional at what she does and it is such a pleasure to recommend her!!!

Okay guys Ashley is the BEST!!!!! From the day we inquired on her website to be our wedding photographer she’s been nothing short of amazing. She was so flexible and willing to hop on phone calls to answer my million questions. She went above and beyond from the start. She sent us the most adorable welcome gift,  helped us with outfit choices and calmed our nerves every step of the way. And most importantly, she is an AMAZING photographer! Seriously the best in the game. We had never had professional photos taken of us so we were somewhat nervous, but she told us exactly how to pose, what to do with our faces and hands  and made us feel so comfortable. We are soooo thrilled with how our pictures came out and this was only our engagement sesh. We are so excited for her to be a part of our wedding day!! 10/10, 100% highly recommend!

UPDATING REVIEW POST WEDDING: Over 2 years of wedding planning and she is STILL the best there is!!! Aside from our wedding photos being literal MAGIC, Ashley was simply the best on our wedding day. She will capture those breath taking, intimate moments and deliver pure art— this is obvious, the photos speak for themselves. But Ash will also be your biggest supporter both leading up to and on your wedding day and *bonus*- get down on the dance floor with you all night long. She makes taking photos so much fun and our sunset session with her was definitely one of our favorite parts of our wedding. I seriously could not imagine our wedding without her and I literally want to get married 10 more times just so she can be a part of it (sorry husband ).  If you’re even debating booking Ash, DO IT. You won’t regret it. She’s made forever friends out of us!

Ashley is one of the most genuine, authentic and kind people we could have ever worked with. She went out of her way to make me and my husband feel comfortable during the photography process for our intimate wedding, and worked not only with our schedules but the schedules of all our other vendors to make sure the day was special and documented accordingly.

If you're ever looking for a creative, charismatic and talented photographer with a great eye for detail, Ashley Olson has to be your first stop!

We now have the most gorgeous photos of our elopement style wedding in the forest that we can treasure forever – all thanks to the hard work and skill of Ashley. Thank you for everything!

After having a very not comfortable/ bad photographer experience with our first attempt at engagement photos, my fiancé and I decided to use Ashley as I had been to several weddings she photographed and loved her work. It was worth EVERY. PENNY. Working with Ashley was effortless (and I don’t really love having my photo taken, and really hate PDA so engagement photos was something I was dreading). Ashley gave us amazing direction and the experience was so fun!!! I was genuinely shocked how easy it was. I cannot stop looking at our photos, my fiancé and I are obsessed. If you need a confidence boost- HIGHER HER. Best decision we could have made. Can’t wait for her to photograph our wedding this spring.

If you’re looking for a photographer, Ashley IS IT!!!! She made us feel comfortable, as if we had known her for years. We’ve had other photographers in the past that would pose us but we still seemed stiff & it showed in our photos. Ashley gave us a ton of fun prompts during our engagement session & is the BEST hype woman!! I had a vision of how I wanted our photos to look/feel and she FREAKING NAILED IT!! On our wedding day she captured all the intimate & special moments that are priceless - we will truly cherish these for a lifetime. You can tell that Ashley is so passionate about her work & it truly shines through in all of her photos. On top of her work being phenomenal, she is just a beautiful human. She’s very outgoing, funny, and personable. She really takes the time to get to know you & at the end of it all - she’s not just a photographer, she’s a friend. We canceled our large, local wedding to have a more intentional, intimate wedding day - Ashley was there every step of the way to happily recommend vendors, help us map out our day, and support us in making our day our own. If I could, I’d rate her a 20/5!

Ashley is literally the BEST! If you are searching for a photographer stop it and just go ahead and book her. From the start she has been super engaging, professional and full of positivity. My special day was chaotic due to weather shifts and she went above and beyond for me and my guests and was super flexible turning it into a two day affair which was beyond appreciated. In person she does a great job making you feel like a friend and not making you feel awkward at all! I think her energy alone really helped open us up and create some beautiful photos! She def was the hype girl I needed that day and it made literally the hugest difference. Ashley is worth every penny, and you won’t regret booking with her I can promise you that.

Ashley,
We can’t thank you enough for everything! You’re more than a photographer; you’re a friend who encouraged, advised, and made us laugh since our first conversation. By the time our wedding day arrived, we felt understood and in good hands with you.

Our wedding day was captured perfectly thanks to you. Despite the challenging hurricane conditions, you made the day so fun and managed to capture every special moment beautifully. Your expertise truly shined amid the storm, and we are so fortunate to have had you with us.

Thank you a thousand times over for your dedication, creativity, and positive mindset! You’re the greatest!

About

Ashley Olson
Photographer Ashley Olson About me

I've always gone by Ash.  It just sounds right, feels right.  I am a 30-something year old wife + mama of two (well, three if you count our 100lb Bernedoodle, Duke). I’ve been with my hunk of a mountain man (Willie) for almost half of my life... literally, 15 years. Our babies Marley (5) and Bronson (3) aren’t really babies anymore and it is something that I will always struggle coming to terms with. The ways to my heart are simple and are often in the forms of bread, pasta, and ice cream, but I also accept house plants, good company, and cuddles on the couch. As much as I hate to say it… my husband (Willie) will always be way cooler than me. He grows apples, tends to our land, and makes cider for a living.  Our goal has always been to be self-sufficient and give our kids a much quieter, slower, simple life than what we had, so naturally we bought a run down 1920’s farmhouse 2 years ago and are slowly (v slowly) turning it into our dream home. It’s not our forever, but it’s been equally hard and fun learning and doing things ourselves. At our current pace, we hope to have it completed by 2033 (not joking haha).
