“We hired Ashley and her husband for our September wedding. Our wedding photos are beautiful, Ashley and Shawn are easy to get along with, we would hire them again and recommend to our family and friends!”

Sam & Alysia

“Ashley is AMAZING! She photographed our wedding back in 2018, family photos with our newborn, and most recently my best friend's wedding. She is an absolute dream to work with and it’s been so great to have her document some of the most important times in our life. She never “poses you,” just gently guides you, which makes for a less uncomfortable shoot and some awesome candid shots. Her use of the perfect lighting and candid moments makes for the best photos. I cannot recommend Ashley enough!!”

Shannon & Dustin

“We had Ashley shoot our engagement & wedding photos and I have nothing but great things to say about her! She makes everyone so comfortable and is so fun to work with. Our wedding photos were everything I hoped & imagined them to be, and more! She truly did such a wonderful job of bringing the day back to life through the photos, and really captured all the emotions from the day. I will definitely always go to Ashley for any photography needs I have, and always will recommend her to anyone!”

Hello there! I'm thrilled to share some tips and insights on preparing for your engagement session. This pre-wedding session is a fabulous opportunity for us to get to know each other and for you to become comfortable in front of the camera before your big day.
&nbsp;
Let's start with outfit choices. Your clothing should reflect your personality and the overall vibe of the shoot. Consider coordinating your outfits without being too matchy-matchy. Complementary colors, similar styles, and a consistent level of formality can bring a cohesive look to your photos. Remember, comfort is key! If you're not comfortable, it will show in your photos. Also, don't forget about the details - shoes, accessories, and even the color of your nail polish can add a touch of your personality to the images.
&nbsp;
Next up, the location. A meaningful place for you as a couple can make your photos even more special. Maybe it's the coffee shop where you had your first date, the park where you walk your dog, or just a beautiful spot you both love. Outdoor locations with lots of natural light always make for stunning photos. However, if you're more of an indoor couple, consider your home or a cozy cafe. The important thing is that you feel comfortable and the location reflects your personal style.
&nbsp;
Now, let's talk about posing ideas. Don't worry, I'll guide you through this. The aim is to capture your natural interaction, so try to forget about the camera. Just be yourselves, laugh, chat, be playful or romantic. The more relaxed and natural you are, the more authentic and beautiful your photos will be. And remember, this is meant to be a fun experience!
&nbsp;
Finally, I recommend setting aside some time before the shoot to browse through engagement photos you like. They could be from my portfolio, Pinterest, or anywhere else. This will give you an idea of what you like and don't like, and we can discuss this before or during the shoot.
&nbsp;
I hope these tips help you feel more prepared and excited about your engagement session. Remember, the most important thing is to enjoy this special time together and let your love for each other shine through. Can't wait to capture these beautiful moments for you!

"I am a photographer from the Fraser Valley just outside of Vancouver Canada. After doing this amazing job for over thirteen years I can truly say I still have an incredible passion for photographing weddings and people's journeys through life... from holding their first newborn baby to seeing their families grow. 



A few things to know about me... I've been married to my husband for seventeen years and we have three beautiful girls. My husband Shawn is not only my partner in life but he's also my talented second shooter. I love coffee, white wine, thrifting, editing to true crime podcasts and cuddling with my youngest baby, my pup Theo. "
