Holding the heart
of the moment.
Long after the flowers fade & the dress is put away, what remains is how it felt to stand there together & the sacred vows that you made. These images are meant to carry you back to that feeling & to serve as a reminder of the commitment that you shared.
A calm, intentional experience
You deserve to feel relaxed, cared for, and fully present on your wedding day. From planning to timeline support, I bring calm direction and thoughtful structure so you can simply enjoy the moment.
Beautiful, but true
The most powerful images aren’t staged - they’re honest. I document your day with a cinematic, artful approach that still holds true to who you are and what really unfolded.
An heirloom you’ll return to

Full Wedding Stories
Below you’ll find a handful of full galleries that show what a wedding day looks like through my lens - not just the “pretty moments”, but the real ones. These stories are meant to be viewed slowly… the kind of images you could return to for years.
What People Are Saying
“I can’t recommend Ashley enough! She did both our engagement and elopement photographs. They all turned out so amazing that I don’t know how I will ever narrow down my favorites! Everyone that we show just loves our pictures. We had rainy, foggy, windy weather on our wedding day and somehow Ashley made it work and it’s like a fairytale!!! She’s great to work with, makes you feel very comfortable! I love that we chose her to be our photographer because now we have amazing memories to look back at!”
-Whitney
“Can’t say enough amazing things about Ashley Steffens photography & her team, my husband and I decided to elope in North Carolina at a cabin and we’re not local but Ashley made me so comfortable during the planning process, she explained the different options to us and came up with schedules that worked perfectly for us and what we wanted out of the day. She is very professional and makes you feel so relaxed in front of the camera. We didn’t have family at our elopement and Ashley felt like someone we knew for years instantly and we loved that, made everything extra special. We also booked a day after session with her, highly highly recommend doing that to any couple!!! It was such a fun shoot getting those moments in right after saying “I do””
-Angelica
“Ashley is truly so talented, but even more she is a really genuine and disarming person, which I think is so important when you are taking intimate photos. We knew when we saw her photos online that we wanted her to photograph our elopement, and we are so glad we did; the day of she was incredibly kind and made us super comfortable while taking photos during and after the ceremony. Her presence did not make us feel awkward or make the moment less intimate. She also got us a sneak peek within 2 weeks and they are JAW DROPPING. All of my friends and family - and us, of course - are blown away by how they turned out. They are so special to us and we're so thankful for her for capturing that moment so authentically.”
