Welcome! I’m Ashley, an award winning documentary wedding photographer based in Scotland and I like to keep things simple.
If you LOVE photography but don’t want your wedding day to be all about a posed photoshoot…. you’re in the right place!
You CAN have fun at your wedding without having to worry about the photography.
Documentary Wedding Photography is all about story telling with pictures. Building up a narrative of the greatest day in your life. Weaving together the real moments and the real emotions so you can open your album in the years to come and that raw emotion will come flooding back to you.
Take a minute to look at the slideshow below. Above all, nothing is staged. In other words, there’s no direction from me. As a result you’ll just see authentic candid moments that really happened in the natural course of the day.
20 years as a photojournalist working for The Times, The Independent, The Guardian to name a few, has given me the perfect training to be your wedding photographer.
My background covering the news has given me the skills to anticipate the unexpected, take advantage of the best light and handle things calmly when they don’t go to plan. After all, drama and emotion are the essence of every wedding!
I work quietly and calmly to photograph your wedding the way it really happened. The big moments and the little gems you didn’t even notice which you’ll be able to share with your children and your children’s children.
Please feel free to explore these weddings and other blog posts that they lead to. I hope you like them.
