We spend all this time searching for relationships: for our spouse, for friends, for a deeper relationship with god, for a better relationship with our parents & siblings.

I believe that our relationships are the only thing that truly matters in life, and sadly, we never know when we're going to lose someone that we love. 

I was four when my dad passed away in a car accident, and I was 24 when my mom passed away from a long battle with cancer. I have exactly one photo of my family together. 

My memories have faded, but when I look at that image, I can see myself in my parents, I can see how much they loved one another, and I can see how much they loved me. 

When I look at the canvas collection on our wall of our family photos when Jackson was only a few months old, I see the most adorable little boy. I'm so grateful that I get to be his mommy and guide him to become an incredible man who will 

someday start his own family and teach our future generations the importance of kindness, love, and gratitude.

When I look at snapshots from life before me, I appreciate the legacy created by previous generations and am grateful for where that history has brought me. 

When I look at the boxes of photos I've kept and added to over the years, I remember the ordinary but extraordinary moments with incredible people that have made up my life.

I want you to know that the images that you get from your wedding might be the last images you will have of your loved ones. Don't be afraid to show emotion, shed a tear, kiss, hug tight, laugh joyfully, look at each other with the love that you truly feel for one another, and express how you're feeling in that moment.

To me, an image isn't just a picture. It's the proof that you lived and loved deeply. Your images are your life.

Hiring Ashley Fisher Photography was by far the BEST decision we made for our wedding! I cannot explain in words how AMAZING Ashley is at what she does (like beyond talented you guys), but who she is as a person. From our first phone call, to the getting to know us questionnaire, the engagement session, making our timeline (the list goes on and on), she was 100% there for US! She literally MADE our wedding day! Needless to say, book Ashley Fisher! If the reviews don't convince you, just look at her website! The best in the business, hands down!

Ashley Fisher is amazing! Ashley made us feel like models. These are photos adorning the walls of our home and ones we will cherish forever. They say "a picture is worth a thousand words;" if that's the case then our video by Ashley is worth tens of thousands! My husband and I both cried when we saw it for the first time! Ashley, you are an amazingly talented, kind, loving, and genuine person. Eugene and I are have no words to ever thank you enough for everything you did to help us remember the best day of our life forever!

When it became clear that Steve's Mom, Jeannie was losing her battle with cancer, our family supported Alex and Steve's decision to marry in a very small, private ceremony so that Steve's Mom could attend. We absolutely TREASURE the thoughtful and poignant photographs Ashley took for us. They are gorgeous, and we never saw her taking most of them. It was like she was everywhere. The photos are emotionally rich, and her sincere desire to capture these fleeting moments comes through in her work. What she charged for her services doesn't begin to repay the gratitude we feel for her. She gets five stars from the Tucci family.

Ashley was nothing short of AMAZING. Ashley even helped my mom repair my wedding dress when it unexpectedly ripped during my bridal photos. Their photo booth option was also one of the best ideas. Our guests have not stopped talking about how fun it was! And we look FANTASTIC in both our wedding and engagement photos. The lighting, the staging, the positioning... Her intuition is second to none--and she'll do anything to get the shot!! Hire this woman if you don't do anything else for your big day; she's worth every penny and more!!!

Ashley is extremely talented! We absolutely loved having her be our photographer and she truly captured the most important day of our lives impeccably! We did a first look and Ashley suggested that my husband stand facing me as I walked towards him. It was so touching to see the look in his eyes as I walked towards him. Ashley also hosts a reveal party to show the bride and groom their photos. This is something out of the ordinary for a photographer to do and it just shows how devoted she is to her clients. We can't thank you enough for taking the most incredible photos we have ever seen!

My husband and I honestly don't know what we would have done without Ashley beside us throughout our wedding process. She is the most professional person ever while being fun at the same time. She makes you feel so good in front of the camera and knows every angle, shadow, contrast, light, etc to make sure your pictures are perfect. After our engagement session, it was like we had known each other forever. It made the experience THAT much better - feeling so comfortable in her presence. Ashley has a very unique and rare gift. AFP is above and beyond and if you want the best of the best for your photographer, choose Ashley.

Best in the business. Ashley Fisher is such a pleasure to work with. She is such a professional and a perfectionist. She is great at giving directions for poses and scenes she wants to create. I have never worked with a photographer who really knew what they were doing and at the same time very organized. She has timelines to help make your wedding seamless and responds in a very timely manner to any questions you may have. I would not trust the most important photos you will ever take to anyone else.

She made us laugh and became apart of our family the minute she walked through the door. Shooting with her on our wedding day was the easiest experience we had throughout the wedding process. We cannot thank her enough for all her hard work she put into our wedding and embracing our crazy families. We truly feel like we gained a member of our family with Ashley and want to relive the day because it was that amazing. Oh and her reveal parties are so much fun. Long story short Ashley not only shoots amazing photos but is an amazing human being. We feel lucky that she was a part of our day.

The Butterfly House

MATT & ABBEY

The day of our wedding was a weather disaster. This girl has back up plans for her back up plans! Ashley made sure that I was enjoying the day, and I still can't believe that the couple in those pictures is us. It overwhelms me every time I look at both our engagement and wedding pictures how well she captured our personalities and our love for each other. Her creativity is amazing. Who would have thought standing in the snow could turn out so amazing! Ashley is an amazing photographer and has become a friend to us. Every time you look at those photographs you will remember exactly how you were feeling because she doesn't just capture the image, but the emotions as well.

Her confidence in planning the timeline and schedule made me feel very comfortable and put me at ease, especially when on the day of, we were running a little behind, but she was able to adjust and make the best of everything! She is a passionate photographer and always looking to get the perfect picture, but she also allows for special times reminding us to take in the whole experience of the wedding day. I can’t imagine my wedding day being spent with any other photographer. She was a lot of fun to be with, and my husband and I know we will have beautiful pictures to last a lifetime because of her! 

Windows on Washington

Paige & ERIC

I couldn't be happier with choosing Ashley Fisher to be our wedding photographer. Every single part of the process leading up to the wedding was done with professionalism and care. Ashley is very personal throughout the entire day, making sure that everything that is important to you gets captured. Ashley even went as far as to wipe away my tears with her skirt after our emotional non-first look. I can not imagine anyone else caring this much about their clients. I highly recommend Ashley Fisher as a wedding photographer, your photos are the only thing that are going to last from the day so make sure they are special.
