Artful Photography Rooted in Emotion & Style

My work is guided by a desire to create imagery that feels honest, artful, and deeply personal. I want you to be fully present on your wedding day, knowing every look, laugh, and touch will be preserved with care and intention.

My Approach

At Southern & Grace Photography, I believe your wedding is more than an event — it’s a reflection of who you are and what you value. My approach combines an editorial sensibility with genuine storytelling, capturing refined imagery that feels effortless and emotionally resonant.
From quiet moments to grand gestures, I’m drawn to the beauty that unfolds naturally — crafting photographs that honor the emotion and artistry of your day.

Documenting Love with Intention and Grace

I find joy in capturing connection in its truest state: the laughter between vows, the way light touches a gown, the calm that settles before the celebration begins.

Photography, to me, is equal parts art and observation. Every frame is an opportunity to translate feeling into form — to preserve not just how a moment looked, but how it felt.

With a camera in hand, I feel most at home. And when I’m not behind the lens, I’m usually savoring a slow morning coffee, reading a good book, or spending time with my husband and our two kids. Those everyday moments — unhurried and sincere — are what inspire my work and remind me why love is always worth documenting beautifully.

"Ashley captured the heart of who we are."

"We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day! Ashley made us feel completely at ease and truly listened to our vision. On the day of our wedding, she captured every moment — from joyful laughter to quiet, tender glances — with such precision and artistry. Looking through our photos feels like reliving our day all over again.
We were nervous in front of the camera, but Ashley’s calm, confident presence made us feel natural and beautiful. Every image feels authentic and elegant — a perfect balance of candid emotion and refined portraiture. Our families are still raving about how stunning the photos are, and we’ll cherish them for the rest of our lives."
