The Lovelight Archive 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Mountain Home, NC

My name is Ashton. I’m drawn to the things that can’t be recreated: a glance across a crowded room, a hand held a little tighter, the feeling of knowing your life is about to change. My work is rooted in documenting those moments as they unfold, without performance or pretense. I believe the most meaningful photographs are the ones that feel honest. The ones that transport you back not just to how it looked, but to how it felt. Through a blend of documentary storytelling and refined imagery, I create photographs that become part of your history. Artifacts of love, connection, and the people who made it all matter.

I’m an Asheville-based photographer and lover of the great outdoors, home cooked meals, hot summer days, and going on adventures. I’m weird (aren’t we all?), but I’m unapologetically myself, and I am obsessed with my job and this life I am so blessed to live. I've worked with some awesome couples, and maybe you're the next!

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!

Erin Jay Wedding Photography earned our recommendation. Erin’s prompt communication from the beginning was invaluable. Despite being directly affected by the devastation caused by hurricane Helene, Erin made sure to stay in communication and even traveled to Knoxville, TN from Asheville, NC to capture our wedding. There are no words for that kind of dedication. She truly cares about what she does. There was a lot going on in a short amount of time, but Erin was steady, calm and managed to get some truly beautiful photos of us, the scenery and friends and family.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing the right photographer is a big deal—truly one of the decisions that can make or break your entire experience. We met Nathan at the very beginning of our journey, during our engagement shoot at the Biltmore Estate. We were both nervous, awkward, and completely unsure of what to expect. Then Nathan arrived, and everything changed. Within minutes he had us laughing, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying ourselves. That was the moment we knew he wasn’t just talented—he was special. So when it came time to choose someone to capture our wedding in Sedona, we took a chance and asked if he would fly out. Honestly, we thought it was a long shot… but he immediately said yes. And thank goodness he did. I will never forget the moment he walked into the room on my wedding day. I had just started feeling that wave of nerves while finishing my hair, and the instant Nathan stepped in, I felt completely at ease. How does he do that? He has this quiet magic about him—an ability to ground you, hype you up, and disappear into the background all at once. His passion is infectious. His eye for intimate, meaningful moments is unreal. And somehow, while capturing every single one of those moments, he manages to remain practically invisible. When we received our gallery, we both laughed, cried, and sat there in awe. It felt like reliving the day, but through the lens of someone who truly understood us. To put it simply: Nathan is gifted. Exceptionally, unmistakably gifted. We even showed our engagement photos to another top-tier photographer, and her reaction was: “Book him immediately. His editing is some of the most incredible work I’ve seen—I want to talk to him myself!” If you're reading reviews trying to decide who to trust with your memories, stop here. You’ve found the one. Nathan exceeded every expectation we had—and then ten more we didn’t even know we should have. He is the best of the best.

Hey there! John & Amy here, the husband and wife team behind the cameras. We’re both adventurers, daydreamers, and you guessed it wildly in love. Fun fact, we’re actually highschool sweethearts and have been together for 10+ years. We are currently based in NC and are transitioning to WA in 2022. We love to travel and are down to adventure throughout the US & Beyond. We both have a heart for exploration and love working with couples who share this adventurous spirit. Genuine smiles, hearty laughs, spontaneous adventures, that’s what we’re all about.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are over the moon with our photos and videos from Amy and John. The quality is incredible, and the quantity is unbelievable. They delivered an incredible amount of photos so quickly, and our friends and family have commented several times that it looks like our wedding was featured in a magazine spread because the quality is so impressive. We’ve been looking through them nonstop, and every time we see some new gem. They captured so many big and small moments throughout the weekend. It is incredible that they were able to capture so much without us or our guests feeling like there were cameras everywhere. They blended seamlessly, and it truly felt like we were just hanging out with them all day. They were so kind and lovely to work with and directed us beautifully, while allowing us to be ourselves and capturing genuine and authentic moments. They both brought such a calm presence. We can’t believe they captured so much content and so many angles when we don’t even remember them doing that - we mostly remember them being by our sides and talking and laughing with us. So many of our guests have said similar things. They truly impressed everyone and have given us so many incredible photos and videos to remember the weekend. Hiring them was such a great decision. We would 100% do it again and recommend them wholeheartedly.

If we could give more than 5 stars to Michael, we would. Michael is an amazing photographer and beyond that just a genuine amazing human being. When we first started looking for a photographer, we both went into it knowing that we are both incredibly awkward people when asked to pose. With this in mind, we started the big search - the one that everyone reminds you that will tell your stories for years. Enter finding Michael - his website mentioned candidness, and a documentary type of style. Two things that immediately caught our eye - not to mention looking through his previous work- which is just unbelievable! Throughout the year leading up to the wedding, Michael was incredibly helpful. He answered any questions we had and offered super helpful suggestions when figuring out the flow of the day. One tidbit that I would recommend to any bride is work with your photographer to create that timeline - a tidbit from Michael. He also managed to have a blog post for every type of question I had (and I had a lot LOL). A few weeks prior to the wedding, Michael met with us via zoom to go over the different elements of our days and to go over our family list (which was insanely helpful day of because we were able to knock those out)! When our wedding day arrived, he was there early to get everything set up and his presence just put everyone at ease. It felt like someone who had been part of our family friends rather than a wedding vendor - which was another element that was important to us: good vibes! Our wedding day and the pictures felt just like us - entertaining and full of laughter. We hiked through some trails for our first look, walked along a highway, and climbed rocks- which lead to nothing but new memories and lots of giggles. We both were really nervous about taking the posed pics but Michael put us in our natural element and just focused on capturing our story, which was a trend all throughout the day. None of us will ever forget the fact we forgot to tell him we had a 6 foot hoagie at the ceremony. We also had a blast using bubble guns for a photo op fake exit and learned there is such a thing as too many bubbles! Within a day after the wedding, we had a sneak peek - and we generally could not believe how AMAZING our photos turned out. It’s still surreal that we could look that good in photos, he captured exactly what we were hoping -us having the time of our life and starting our life together as husband and wife. CANNOT RECOMMEND HIM ENOUGH! P.S. Plus how awesome is it when your vendors are so cool that they feel like friends by the end of the wedding so you have to get a selfie to commemorate the hours of planning and talking you did to make the day one of the most incredible days EVER!!!

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with Eugene for our wedding! His relaxed, easy-going vibe immediately put us at ease, which made the whole experience so enjoyable. It felt like having a close friend capturing our day, not just a photographer. The photos are breathtakingly beautiful and so true to life— just authentic moments and natural colors that perfectly captured the feel of the day. Every time we look at them, it’s like reliving our wedding all over again. Eugene was a pro at blending in seamlessly—catching the little candid moments while still guiding us gently through the posed shots when needed. He made everything feel so effortless and fun! If you want stunning photos and a photographer who makes the entire process stress-free, we can’t recommend Eugene enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
What initially drew us to reaching out to Laren to be our photographer for an intimate, 14 person wedding ceremony was obviously her stunning, timeless and romantic photographs. But what somehow stood out even more than the beautiful photographs she delivered to us (and with a relatively short turnaround!) was what an absolute pleasure it was to work with her, from communicating to figure out if it was a good fit initially, to planning a wedding day adventure session, to ensuring everyone at the ceremony got the photos they wanted. Throughout the initial coordination and planning process, she was very helpful with providing feedback on our ideas and crafting it into a clear plan for the day. She was flexible in allowing us to split coverage between an early morning adventure session in the mountains and time later at the venue for the formal wedding ceremony. She provided recommendations for other vendors and drafted timelines to help us organize the activities for the day. Leading up to the day, she provided us with regular updates about the weather, proactively providing alternate options if it did not cooperate. For the adventure session, it ended up being a frigid and windy morning, which could have been a miserable experience but because of her warmth, energy and positivity ended up being really fun despite us being freezing! She was always offering alternate ideas to make sure we had opportunities to warm up and even spent a good amount of time at the beginning helping us learn how to tie a bowtie. Since it was so cold and windy in the morning that we cut our hike short, she offered to come earlier in the evening (which was so kind) and shows her commitment to having the whole day really be about her clients, even if the coverage is split into two sessions! Working with her for the ceremony felt so natural and it really showed in the heartfelt, genuine and joyful photos that she took. We highly recommend Laren -- her skills would shine for capturing any event!

Prior to the wedding Jessica made sure every detail was covered and a timeline was created for a seamless day. Day of Jessica arrived on time and was ready to shoot! She was flexible, staying an extra hour to capture more of our cocktail hour and braved the cold as we had requested going to Dry Falls waterfall after the ceremony to get some shots. Our two large dogs were a part of the ceremony and Jessica was wonderful working with them prior and during the ceremony to get special shots with them!

I cannot say enough good things about Juan Rodriguez Photography! Juan shot film photos alongside a digital photographer at our wedding. Juan's photos are absolutely beautiful - organic, artistic and distinct. They are some of my favorite photos from the day. The best thing about Juan though is his attitude. His positivity, calmness and proactiveness made a real difference without how I felt on my wedding day. Though our digital photographer had never met him before our wedding, she commented how much she enjoyed working with him. Many of our bridal party made similar comments. He was always looking for ways to help, whether holding bouquets or giving my veil movement outside the frame. Besides being a wonderful photographer, Juan is just the type of person you want with you on your wedding day. I can't recommend him enough.

Brian and I will be grateful forever that we chose Darrell & Kaitlyn Cassell for our wedding photography and videography. Until we received the pictures and videos back, we thought the best part of choosing them was the wedding day experience with them. I loved their approach and energy that day. They guided us seamlessly from one moment to the next, offering gentle direction when needed, but allowing everything to unfold naturally. Nothing ever felt forced or overly posed. Their calm, relaxed presence set such a peaceful tone for the entire day. When we got the photos and videos back, our gratitude skyrocketed. The images are absolutely stunning and I’ll let them speak for themselves. I have never felt more beautiful, and it feels like the joy of the day leaps right off the screen. I’m still blown away by how they managed to capture not just how everything looked, but exactly how it felt. I would choose them over and over and over again. I could not recommend them more and wish I could relive it again and again. The incredible highlight video is the closest I'll get to that and it's perfect. Everything was perfect.

Planning a wedding during a pandemic involved an unusual set of challenges. Although our guest count was a little smaller than we originally anticipated-- the day could not have been more perfect. This was made possible only because we hired and trusted the right people. We try to instill the same trust so you can enjoy your day!

We highly recommend Lainey Claire Photography to any couple looking for a wedding photographer who will capture all of your memories from your special day.
