“Oh where to begin!? We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Ashley. She has such a special eye for capturing genuine emotions and candid moments in such a beautiful way it's indescribable. And you'll also want to be best friends with her too! She's the best and such a lovable person. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable (my husband is so camera shy btw lol) and she even helped me feel completely at ease about the planning process by providing examples of day-of timelines and lists of needs and not-to-forgets. I knew from one phone call with her that we weren't booking anyone else and our engagement shoot was such a sweet sneak peak for what to expect from her skills on the big day! Nothing would have prepared us for our actual wedding photos though. She and Vannity (our very skilled bonus photographer) did an incredible job capturing all the little details and specials moments. Vannity is also just as easy to love as Ashley! If you’re looking for someone who will make you feel comfortable and truly care about your experience, we cannot recommend her enough. We will be forever grateful that Ashley and Vannity were part of our special day!”

The photos he captured of our wedding day were truly stunning, and we were amazed at how affordable his services were. He made sure to take photos of our parents and guests, as well as all the little details that made our day so special. The only thing we would have liked is if he had taken more photos of us with our wedding party and our children, I am honestly a bit bummed about that. However, I suppose I should have paid closer attention to that to ensure that was done. Overall, we are thrilled with the memories Tony helped us preserve from our wedding day.

She has a knack for guiding you through natural-looking poses, and her prompts led to photos that feel candid and real — nothing cheesy or stiff. It honestly felt like we were just having fun together, not "posing" for photos. Kathy also recommended our videographer (Matt Van Ness! Also highly recommended!), and they worked seamlessly as a team the entire day - their synergy made it clear that they've worked together before! I can’t recommend Simply K Studios enough. Kathy clearly loves what she does and that love shows up in her pictures. If you're looking for a photographer who’s both incredibly talented and an absolute joy to be around, Kathy is it. We’re so lucky to have had her capture our day!”

I love spending the day documenting the story of your love and special moments with those closest do you. My photographic style is to photograph in a non intrusive way so I can capture the magic of the day as it unfolds with candids and minimal directed posing.

“Im so happy Tarren and her husband, Sam, were my engagement and wedding photographers- professional, friendly, and willing to do what it takes to get the desired shots. Im obsessed with our photos!”

“No words can express how grateful we are for Stevie! She is absolutely amazing at what she does! The attention to detail and literally-every single detail-is unmatched! She goes above and beyond and when you look back on your photos, you are reminded of all the special moments…especially ones that you may not even realized at that moment in time. She truly has an eye for it and she WILL capture it! She is such a pleasure to work with! She makes sure you will always have the best photos to look back on! We appreciate all of her talent and creativity! Not only did she capture our engagement but she traveled all the way to New Jersey from Upsate New York to capture our wedding day! Her dedication and passion for this art is so inspiring! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, thank you, thank you for making our day extra special!”
