Hi There! I'm Ashley - Wife+ Mama, Raising Two Wild Boys, Wearing All The Hats, Chasing Light + Documenting Life! All are welcome here.

Colorado Lifestyle Wedding & Portrait Photographer - SPECIALIZING IN CREATING TIMELESS + JOY-FILLED MEMORIES FOR FAMILIES + COUPLES - Based in Erie, Colorado | Serving Northern Colorado, Boulder and the Denver Metro areas Growing up with a photographer as a mother, every moment of my childhood was captured. Every photograph tells my family's story, and I treasure those memories. Its my love for photographs + nostalgic nature (hello 4w3!) that allows me to first connect with my clients and then document them authentically. I create bold, true to color + natural imagery that focuses on the candid interactions + emotional connection. I am married to my best friend + we live on our homestead in the country with our two wonderfully wild boys, our dogs + the chickens. I will be your best advocate, share all of my experience to make your session or wedding the best it can be + will constantly cheer you on! Everyone deserves to have their story told.

This fall has been a whirlwind in the best way possible. I am constantly reminded of how lucky I am to capture and preserve my clients’ most meaningful milestones. While the busy season means a bit less sleep with late nights editing, looking at the photographs captured and seeing the magic we are creating makes every single second worth. ✨✨✨

Jenn + Jon | September 25, 2026 ✨
These two dated in college but decided to part ways. 20 years later they found each other again. Their wedding day was full of joy, intentional moments shared with their blended family and so much love. They moved through the day like two halves of a magnet, constantly pulled back into each other’s orbit. Their love and adoration for each other could be felt by everyone celebrating with them. It was such a joy to witness and photograph every moment of their wedding day. ✨♥️

Molly + Quinn | September 20, 2026 ✨
September at Shupe Homestead is so dreamy - and Molly + Quinn could not have had a more perfect day. I loved being around their family and friends, capturing all the love and in-between moments. Their day was slow and steady, their timeline was thoughtfully planned and allowed them to be present. What a joy it was to be able to capture their wedding day!✨✨✨

Finishing up final edits for Riley + Blake’s stunning day in July at Bonnie Blues Event Venue and I’m just loving all these bridesmaid details and help with getting the bride ready for the ceremony. It’s in these little moments of care and attention that show you just how important you are to the people you love most. ✨

Emily + Ryan | September 7, 2026 ✨
Crested Butte is one of the most stunning places I have ever visited and it was the perfect backdrop for Emily + Ryan’s day. Every detail was designed to perfection, the florals were unbelievable and the views were breathtaking. Emily + Ryan chose to say their vows and celebrate this new chapter with their closest friends and family. It was an intimate affair, full of laughter and so much love. I cannot wait for you to see all the beauty that was captured on their wedding day! ✨♥️🍂

McKenzie + Zoey | August 25, 2026 ✨
We had the perfect day celebrating a perfect love. These two lit each other up whenever they were together. McKenzie planned this entire day in less than three months which is so impressive. To witness a love so pure was an honor - their joy was evident throughout the entire day. I am so excited to share these previews of their stunning day at Younger Ranch. This was a dream day with a dream team of vendors! ✨
