Porträt einer jungen Frau mit dunklen, gewellten Haaren und heller Haut, die ein gemustertes Hemd trägt, in Schwarz-Weiß

hello, i’m ashley!

I’m a photographer based in the beautiful Altstadt of Bad Wimpfen, Germany, originally from the United States. A few years ago, I moved across the world and began a new chapter of my life here in Germany. Along the way, I discovered a deeper appreciation for the places we call home, the people we share them with, and the moments that become part of our story.

For over 10 years, photography has been my way of preserving those stories. I love creating images that feel honest, emotional, and timeless — photographs that bring you back to a feeling, not just a moment. My style is documentary-inspired with an artistic eye. I’m drawn to beautiful light, thoughtful compositions, and the small moments that often go unnoticed: a quiet glance, a genuine laugh, a hand reaching for someone you love.

I don’t want you to spend your wedding day performing for the camera. Whether you’re celebrating with a small Standesamt ceremony, an intimate gathering with family and friends, or a day filled with personal details that reflect who you are, I want to capture the moments that make your story unique.

When I’m not photographing, I’m usually spending time with my son, painting, reading, listening to podcasts, exploring old towns, or learning something new. I’m endlessly curious about people, creativity, psychology, and the stories that shape who we are.

I’m drawn to people who value connection over perfection — people who want their photographs to feel like themselves.

I’d love to hear your story.
