I'M ASHTON

Your Wisconsin Editorial-Documentary Wedding Photographer

Retired actress, ex-celebrity nanny, Los Angeles expat turned editorial photographer and intimate chronicler of your love, I'm Ashton.

My eye was honed during my 15 years in L.A. creating an effortlessly cool aesthetic grounded in a midwest heart. I now serve both Wisconsin and Los Angeles couples.

I value love, human connection and well executed visions coming to fruition as fully experienced celebrations, documented honestly and preserved as imagery that you can feel forever.

Testimonials

"Anyone who is fortunate enough to book Ashton as their wedding photographer will be so glad they did. Her energy and enthusiasm are exactly what you want by your side throughout the day. It rained on our exclusively-outdoor ceremony and reception, and she never wavered. She stayed positive and still managed to get the most incredible shots. From the first moment I spoke to her, she immediately got the vision and over-delivered. Her work absolutely blew us away."
