AshGabes Photography WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER CAPTURING BIG LAUGHTER & RAW EMOTION IN AN OFFBEAT, HIGH FASHION TYPE OF WAY. Hey there!

My name is Ashley, and I am the owner of AshGabes Photography. Most people call me Ash, so you are welcome to do the same. I live in San Diego, and shoot all over Southern California + more. When I am not taking pictures, I love being outdoors and catching up with my friends. I’m passionate about photography because of the joy it brings to me and others. There is no greater feeling than seeing tha

t big smile on a client's face as they look at their photos for the first time. I feel really lucky to meet so many wonderful people, hear their story and take part in documenting all of their big [and little] moments. If you're an adventurous + fun loving duo that admires sunshine, color and candid moments - then I would LOVE to hear from you!

There’s something really meaningful about being chosen intentionally.

Not just for a portfolio.
Not just for a style.

But because the energy feels right.

When couples tell me they felt relaxed, understood, and fully present on their wedding day, that’s the part I care about most.

The images are important.
But how you feel while they’re being made matters even more.

Postcards from the most perfect Lake Como elopement.

No timelines.
No audience.
Just two people, very in love, doing things their way.

If this is what eloping looks like… I’m in.

Joy-filled, effortlessly elegant and deeply present 🐚 Rachel & Charlie’s La Jolla wedding was the kind of day that reminds me why film will always have my heart.

Thoughtful design tucked into a lush garden setting, candlelight flickering as guests lingered over conversation, and the kind of energy you can’t manufacture.

I’m forever drawn to weddings that prioritize connection, atmosphere, and intention.

Documented on film with honesty and care.

Now booking 2027 celebrations for couples who want their wedding photos to feel like these.
