If your heart’s been whispering this could be the one, I hope this is the sign you’ve been waiting for.

let’s ditch the pressure and do this your way

We might just be soulmates.


That’s what I’m here to create for you. 

I’m not the photographer who shows up with a clipboard and a list of poses. I’m the one fixing your veil, sneaking you a tissue during vows, tearing up right along with you during the father-daughter dance. I’m your third wheel, biggest hype woman, golden hour chaser, and timeline ninja. Most importantly, I’m the person who will make sure your wedding photos feel like you, messy hair, muddy dress, wind-blown kisses and all.

If you’re dreaming of a wedding that’s rooted in connection, emotion, and a little bit of wild,

The ones where you feel the love, the laughter, the nerves, the joy?

You know those photos that stop you in your tracks?

So here’s what I promise you:

This is more than a job to me. This is your legacy we’re capturing.

The Five Pines Photography Promise

I’ll show up fully and wholeheartedly, always.


I’ll listen to what matters most to you and capture it with care.


I’ll create a space where you feel like you can be exactly yourselves, no awkward posing, no forced smiles.


I’ll photograph the day in a way that lets you relive the emotion, not just remember the details.

I’ll be your safe place, your calm, and your cheerleader through it all.

I couldn’t help but to cry happy tears the second she sent our engagement photos back to us. My fiancé and I were very nervous for our engagement shoot as we were not super comfortable being in front of the camera, however within seconds Ashley made us feel so comfortable and opened the space for us to just be ourselves. I can’t wait for her to capture my special day in a few short months and I would recommend anyone to use Five Pines Photography 100 times over.

Ashley is an absolute dream of a photographer. 

At the heart of my work is this quiet belief: love doesn’t need to be loud to be powerful. I’m drawn to the gentle, steady kind of love.

Dreaming of eloping somewhere wild?

At the heart of my work is this quiet belief: love doesn’t need to be loud to be powerful. I’m drawn to the gentle, steady kind of love.

what does the elopement process look like?

inquire about your elopement

Because your love deserves more than a checklist. It deserves an experience that feels like you.

Eloping isn’t about running away. It’s about running toward what matters most. Your connection, your story, your way. It’s about stripping away the noise, the pressure, the expectations, and creating a space that’s just for the two of you (or your few favorite humans). It’s about saying your vows with the mountains as your witness, or walking hand in hand through a forest trail as the sun peeks through the trees. It’s about quiet joy, bold love, and making this chapter yours.

Wherever you choose to elope, this day gets to be intentional, intimate, and deeply rooted in what you both value.

Why this experience?

why elope? 

You inquire, I happy dance, and we hop on a call to dream big together. I want to hear all about your vision.

We connect.

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I help with location ideas, timing, permits, packing tips, outfit inspo, the whole thing. I’m here to make this easy and exciting.

We plan.

You take it all in. You breathe. You laugh. You cry. You say “I do” in the most true-to-you way possible. I’m there every step of the way capturing each and every moment.

You elope.

You get sneak peeks within 48 hours, followed by a full gallery of photos that don’t just show you what happened, but remind you exactly how it felt.

You re-live it.

the questions

(frequently asked)

Neutral, earth toned clothing always allows the photos to come out with a timeless feel, plus it usually matches with your house when you get them printed! Greens, tans, blacks, and pinks with subtle bursts of colors allow for a fantastic outfit choice. Don't be afraid to bring a hat, jewelry piece, or other article that can accentuate your look.

What should I wear?

The length of time it will take to receive your images can vary depending on the type of session, the season, and if I am traveling! I do my best to deliver wedding images to clients within the 8-12 weeks range, and engagements and portrait sessions within 2-4 weeks.

How long is the turnaround time for our images?

Absolutely! Props like blankets, champagne, or even your favorite books can add a personal touch. If you are bringing pets, please just let me know so we can plan accordingly!

Can we bring props or pets to our session?

Engagements and couples session typically last 1 to 1.5 hours! This allows for a variety of poses, different locations, and an outfit change if wanted.

How long is the session?

I keep a close eye on the forecast leading up to the session. If weather is calling for rain or extreme wind, we can reschedule for another time.  

What happens if there is inclement weather?

From the dreamers, the wanderers, and the wildly smitten lovers

Ashley was absolutely perfect for our wedding this past June. She made the process of taking all the posed photos stress-free. Every time I saw her she was walking around making sure to capture candids of us and the guests as well. She was so friendly to everyone and multiple guests complemented how great she was! The photos are beautiful and what we envisioned too. Highly recommend :)

Ashley is an absolute dream of a photographer. The quality of the photos are incredible I couldn’t help but to cry happy tears the second she sent our engagement photos back to us. I can’t wait for her to capture my special day in a few short months and I would recommend anyone to use Five Pines Photography 100 times over.

100% recommend! Ashley shot our engagement pictures in April and our wedding in June and she is just amazing!! She captured everything we hoped for - from family photos to details and candids of everyone having a great time. And she made sure we were comfortable in front the camera the entire time. The photos came out beautiful and we are still hearing from all our guests how amazing our photographer is :)

Ashley was absolutely amazing!! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we had so much fun for our engagement shoot. We had our heart set on a botanical garden and she made the drive over an hour away to make it happen! She has a way of using nature and highlighting all the natural beauty in her pictures without over editing them! She knows all the important elements in photography to really capture your special moments!

My husband and I will recommend Ashley to any and everyone looking for a photographer and we will shout her praises from the rooftops. She is such a joyful, and serene person, she will bring so much light and peace into a hectic wedding day. She will help keep you and your spouse grounded throughout the whirlwind of your wedding day and she will make all of your families and friends feel at ease and smile for the camera so easily and naturally.
