Ashley Mac Photographs

h them. We are in love with how our photos came out, our day was captured perfectly. if you’re looking for a photographer look no further!

ely put us at ease and she captured every moment with such artistry and attention to detail. Our photos are simple stunning, full of joy, love and candid moments that we will cherish forever. Not to mention we had so much fun with her! We highly recommend Ashley for anyone looking for a talented and wonderful photographer! We love you Ashley!

wanted on our wedding day. We absolutely loved her vibe on the day of -- she is ON IT and well prepared (her team checked off each family shot we needed as they were taken) while also bringing a calming, go-with-the-flow and fun presence. And once we got our photos back, we were thrilled. She made us look gorgeous (we didn't even do an engagement session for practice) and captured the essence of the day. She really makes sure to get all the key people and moments -- and then some. We feel like we go to experience so much of the things we missed on our wedding day by looking at the photos. We 100% recommend Ashley and her team!

t me calm. With the rain coming quickly after our ceremony we had to cut family portraits short. Thankfully Ashley reminded me of this before she left at the end of the night and we could finish getting photos with grandparents and my husband’s side of the family. Also, because of the rain we were unable to get sunset pictures on the dock where we had our reception. Those photos were very important to us. (One of the reasons be chose our venue) She once again pulled us to get gorgeous photos in the dark when the rain had stopped later in the night. We also had Ashley take our engagement photos a year prior to our wedding. They came out beautiful. We went to two different locations, Sandy Hook and my fathers boat docked in Rumson. It also was about to storm that day. So we took windy photos on the beach which still looked amazing then got some photos on my fathers boat. Ashley was great the entire time. She hopped on the boat and look some of my favorite pictures with my now husband. Ashley was truly a blessing to have capture the best day of our life.

information about us as a couple and had an in-depth phone call where we talked about our detailed schedule and plans for our wedding day. Ashley compiled lists of important people and items to capture in her photography, she had an extra photographer and an assistant to help with logistics. Our wedding, which was supposed to be at the Sandy Hook Chapel, was cancelled 24 hours prior due to Hurricane Henri. It was especially chaotic during those last 24 hours, but when communicating with Ashley about the change of plans, she was so flexible! We reworked the timeline and locations for our first look, bridal party photos, etc. The photos are AMAZING! She captured every moment, curated and spontaneous. She was there from the time I was getting in my dress, to the time we cut our cake, getting it all. Our photos were ready in a few weeks and we have had so much fun looking at them since! We will certainly cherish them forever <3 We highly recommend working with Ashley Mac to photograph your NJ wedding!

timeline, and made sure we stuck to it when the big day came. She gave clear direction and worked efficiently to take the most incredible pictures for us. We were so pleasantly surprised with how many photos we got after our event and we love each and every one of them. Ashley’s use of natural light and eye for the perfect back drop made our portraits enchanting and made everyone look their absolute best. Also, being a dog lover herself, she was even able to get our golden retriever to cooperate in portraits and snapped the best candids of her during the ceremony. Ashley is a true wedding professional and so wonderful to work with!

ding. She offered amazing vendor recommendations for others she had worked with in the past the proved to be very helpful. Leading up to our wedding Ashley or a member of her staff were reachable and always responded to emails quickly and courteously. On the day of our wedding Ashley and her secondary photographer (Gina) were the utmost professional but at the same time gave off a very relaxed and easy vibe to allow my husband and I to feel comfortable. This was especially good for my husband who can be camera shy. Ashley and Gina were on time (if not early) for arriving to our venue and were so organized while working through our shot list. My parents continue to comment on how seamlessly we went through all the family shots. In my mind I was asking for a large grouping of pictures because I wanted to make sure we had a wide variety of shots (parents with B&G, B&G with siblings, B with siblings, G with B's siblings... I think you get the idea). Ashley came fully prepared with an organized way to gather all these people together quickly. During the ceremony and reception Ashley and Gina were seen snapping shots of all the important moments along with capturing all the details including the handmade decorations and signs we created, table and floral arrangements and a large number of amazing and hysterical candids. When Ashley sent us our Sneak Peak and then the full gallery of photos we were blown away by the number of shots she was able to share with us. There were so many to choose from it gave us a great way to relive the best day of our lives. I would recommend Ashley Mac Photographs to anyone asking for a professional photographer. She will outshine your highest expectations!

ous, but she was so helpful with all things wedding. Our wedding was originally scheduled for November 2020, but due to the pandemic we had to alter our plans and Ashley and her team were incredible during every step of our reschedule process. They continuously gave updates on available dates, responded promptly to emails about rescheduling and even offered a micro wedding package! Ashley join us for our micro wedding in September 2020 and will be joining us again at our wedding reception in September 2021! We could not have been happier with our small ceremony photos and look forward to continuing to work with Ashley and her team this year! If you are in need of a wedding photographer look no further!

erfect photographs. Throughout the entire process Ashley was always willing to help me with questions, recommendations, you name it. She created an awesome timeline to help me get the day organized. She was so great, that one of my bridesmaids decided to have her be her wedding photographer as well! I could not recommend Ashley Mac Photographs enough. So professional, personable, and over all amazing to work with.

ng planner helped us connect with Ashley and the variation of packages available were perfect for what we were looking for. Ashley and her team were extremely professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. The team was extremely organized and knew exactly what pictures needed to be taken and wasted no time in getting some great shots. We had a picturesque day for our wedding and Ashley and her team captured every moment. I would absolutely recommend Ashley Mac for anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

that our photos would turn out absolutely beautiful. Would recommend over and over again!

ntly felt at ease and comfortable. She answered all of our (many) questions in detail and we knew without a doubt after our first meeting that we wanted her has our wedding photographer. Leading up to our wedding day (in May 2019), she was always quick to respond whenever I had a question or thought and was extremely organized and prepared, which I greatly appreciated. She is very professional but also very easy to work with. She made sure we were all on the same page with timeline and what photos we wanted captured on that day, so there was no tension or uncertainty on our wedding day. And we couldn’t have been happier with how the day went. :) We received our sneak peek just 5 days after our wedding and were absolutely blown away! The photos are beautiful and even more amazing than we’d ever imagined. She captured our day so perfectly, and we are so thankful to Ashley. We received all of our wedding photos 6 weeks after our wedding and were just as happy! The amount of detail that went into each and every photo is a testament to how passionate Ashley is for her work. We hope to have the opportunity to work with Ashley again in the future. We cannot recommend Ashley enough!

ical about having to meet my photographer the day of (we had opted to use a family member for our engagement photos so this was on us, not her!) But boy was all of my apprehension alleviated as soon as we met. Ashley is AMAZING. She was up against all the odds on our New Year's Eve wedding day with it being rainy, cold and wet... it was certainly not the ideal weather. However, despite all of that she was still able to create her airy, light and dreamy look. I could not have been happier with the results. She was able to turn a gloomy weather day into bright and brilliant photography. She captured moments I never knew existed and created portraits that will last a lifetime framed on our walls and in beautiful albums. You will never look for another photographer after choosing to work with Ashley!

er style is exactly what we were looking for, light and romantic. We couldn’t be happier with our photos! Thank you Ashley!

th, but her commitment to our day and capturing the moments surpassed our expectations. From day one, Ashley was supportive in not only photography, but also assisted with making timelines for the days and advised us on the many decisions we had to make. She was extremely thorough in breaking down all possibilities and due to her exceptional experience, was able to give us all the pros and cons of each choice (EG – First-look, family photos, procession lines, etc.) My favorite part of her photography is the fact she was able to capture the atmosphere and excitement of our guests, which will be preserved forever. We cannot thank you enough for all your hard work!

he had to photograph our wedding. She makes the time with her fun and easy. She is so punctual and professional too! I am still looking through our wedding pictures (which we got a sneak peek so fast AND our pictures back soon too), amazed at how she captured each moment perfectly. I wish we could go back and do the whole day again with Ashley!!

figure it out! Once I booked my venue though they provided me with a preferred vendor list and when it came to finding a photographer that's where I started. I knew that I wanted a photographer with a natural, light style. We met with two other companies, but once we sat down with Ashley we were immediately hooked! Her online portfolio had drawn us in but her welcoming personality, professionalism, and genuine interest in our love story sealed the deal. We started with an engagement session the summer before our wedding. Not only did Ashley drive down to the Jersey shore to take our pictures, but she made us feel completely comfortable throughout the whole session. My husband is even camera shy and by the end of the session he told me he felt like a model. She knew exactly what to say to get us to have the best look or have the best poses, both formal and candid, to get the best pictures. Not to mention she made it look like we were on a tropical island instead of the Jersey shore. We were only reaffirmed that we had made the right decision. In the months to come Ashley kept in touch and made sure everything was set up and no detail was left uncovered for the big day. That afternoon Ashley came to our hotel to shoot the bridesmaids and I as were just finishing getting ready and her partner went to shoot my husband and the groomsmen. Those getting ready photos are some of my favorite shots! They are so artistic and personal. She had such clear shots of our rings and then incorporated my other jewelry, flowers, and engagement Crystal Disney slipper and button! Looking back over the rest of the day's photos have been such a wonderful experience. I was surprised to see so many since I never saw or noticed her taking photos. It was like she was a ghost capturing all the perfect moments but not interrupting them! From the ceremony, to the formal family portraits, to the party dance moves, Ashley and her partner got every moment I wanted to now have to look back on forever. I usually have to have tissues on had as they make me cry with tears of joy. As do most of my family and friends when I share the photos with them too! Those moments were priceless and now thanks to Ashley we have them forever in our photos.

made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her and her second photographer captured every wonderful part of our day and we are so thankful we chose her to be our wedding photographer. It's so hard to choose which pictures to frame, they are all so beautiful! Anyone looking for a wedding photographer should look no further than Ashley!

our wedding perfectly. Ashley was efficient and organized, making group photos a breeze. We could not be happier with the way our photos turned out. It makes such a huge difference the type of people you surround yourself with on your wedding day and we are so lucky to have found Ashley!

hard to choose what photos to frame, they are all so good! They were so easy and fun to work with as well, great stuff overall!

to the wedding day, she made us feel so comfortable and the pictures are beautiful!

I've only received the sneak peak and already I am thrilled. She did a wonderful job on our engagement pictures and my wedding photos look so dreamy and romantic. Ashley and her assistant Amanda were awesome. My bridal party raved about their personalities days after the wedding. Ashley was so personable and just really took time to get to know what I envisioned for my wedding. I am so grateful for her service and I cannot wait to see the rest of the pictures.

efore our wedding (after connecting with several other photographers) and just knew that she would do a wonderful job. We wanted our photos to be light, bright and airy and that is exactly what we got! Leading up to the wedding, she was so pleasant to work with, answered emails so fast and even sent us the cutest package a few months beforehand. Then, the day of, she was on time, so calm, amazing at giving direction and everyone in our bridal party loved her (and her friend Alex that was the second photographer!) All of the photos were absolutely gorgeous. I'm having trouble just picking out my top 100! She also honestly captured some of the best wedding reception photos that we'd ever seen - our guests have been commenting, "I don't even remember seeing a photographer there!" All in all, we couldn't be happier!

of amazing they came out perfectly! Ashley is an incredible photographer who works using natural lighting and natural expressions which was something I loved about her! Both my husband and I wanted someone who would be there to capture all the important things without huge lights and flashes in our way and Ashley and her team did exactly that. They were never in the way but captured everything! I would suggest Ashley and her team to anyone that asked she is a devoted professional who is passionate and personable.

with any questions I had. Ashley is a true professional- she showed up early to both our engagement shoot and wedding day and helped us stay on track with the timeline. On the day of the wedding, Ashley and her assistant Laura, kept the atmosphere fun and were able to capture many great shots. From portrait sessions to candid guest photos, we love the many photos they took that day! Ashley is creative, easy to work with, and delivers beautiful photos.

r working with her one on one as opposed to a big production company. I would highly recommend her to another couple for their wedding day!

Highly recommend using Ashley!

The photographer was one of the vendors that I spent a lot of time researching. I wanted to find someone that I trusted would be able to pick up on the small details of the special day as well as someone I could relate to as a friend. Ashley's expertise, professionalism, responsiveness are just a few of her outstanding qualities. I have received countless comments from friends and family about what an absolute pleasure it was working with Ashley and her photographs prove it. Ashley even treats you to a sneak peak of your engagement and wedding day photos days later. I would highly recommend Ashley Macadam for anyone interested in wedding photography. Thank you to Ashley and Alex for capturing a day that we will never forget!

fell in love with her photography style--light, fun, natural, romantic and i knew she was going to do a great job. Our engagement photos came out amazing, especially given the terrible weather conditions the day i choose to shoot! She worked her magic and they came out awesome. We also got our photos back in a very short amount of time. Our wedding photos were even more amazing. She and her assistant were so easy to work with during a hectic and long day and we got a ton of high quality, gorgeous shots. Ashley was always super responsive to my million emails. We will miss working with her!!! Maybe a maternity shoot will be in the future!

ade sure we got all the photos we imaged as well! She got us a preview of about 40 photos within a week of the wedding and we can't wait to see the rest!

ssionally photographed in general. Our wedding pictures turned out beautifully and we can't wait to get some printed! Ashley was very professional (and braved the snow to get to our wedding on time) and made sure every detail was photographed perfectly.

lt like she was the perfect photographer for my wedding day! My fiance (now husband) did not want engagement pictures done and I love that Ashley did not pressure us into them. She said it was no problem and instantly I knew she was the right choice for us. On our wedding day, the taking of all of our pictures went so smoothly. During the ceremony and reception you couldn't even tell she was there and the outcome of the pictures were amazing! Everyone I have showed them to has told me they are absolutely beautiful! I would recommend Ashley to anyone who needs a photographer! Thanks again, Ashley!

s and once you receive your photos. She is ridiculously organized, and I appreciated how much detail she wanted from us to ensure we not only got the pictures we wanted, but also so that we could take them as efficiently as possible. Ashley is a professional in the truest sense of the word, but she makes you feel so comfortable when she’s shooting, you feel like close friends. She really captures your personality, even if you think you look ridiculous in the moment (trust me- you’ll feel weird, but the picture will turn out amazing). Ashley kept in contact with us throughout the wedding planning process, and I truly could not imagine working with anyone else. Her assistant, Jess, and sister, Heather, also worked with us on our wedding day, and were incredibly helpful, professional, and also wonderful to work with. The whole team just completed exceeded our expectations! After we received our pictures back from her, we were blown away with how beautiful they came out. You can truly see how her training and overall love for her job produces the most wonderful pictures- everything from the lighting to positioning was perfect. It was hard for us to decide which pictures to hang up in our home because there were so many options! Our families and friends are also impressed with how amazing our pictures are. We are eternally grateful to Ashley for providing us with the pictures that will enable us to remember the most special day in our lives!

nts to make sure you are happy.

ur style so perfectly and made my husband and I, who don't love taking photos, feel totally comfortable in front of the camera. She also worked with our dog which was really important to my husband and I. I couldn't recommend Ashley enough to anyone in the market for a wedding photographer!

ctures come out amazing!! She was great with communication and was always prompt with responding. Even after she sent the wedding pictures she has answered emails with questions right away. She was organized and kept everything moving along even when there were obstacles making that a difficult task. She is so sweet and was such a great part of our day! definitely book ashley for your engagement and wedding photos!

s going to look good for every picture. I would recommend Ashley in a heartbeat!

rs to come and Ashley Macadam Photography did just that! We even got a few photos with our dogs that I will forever cherish. Overall, we were very impressed from the quality of the photography to the high level of service and attention to detail. Highly recommend this vendor. Thank you Ashley Macadam Photography for capturing such a special moment for us.

geable. We're so easy going that we trusted her with whatever she thought would look awesome and I'm so glad we did that. Our engagement pictures were beautiful and so far I'm in love with all the snippets I see of my wedding photos.

they are natural and feel so organic. Her work is better than I could have expected and we are both beyond pleased with the photos. Her prices are affordable and she has a great personality so she is very easy to work with. I would without a doubt recommend using Ashley!

ue professional. She arrived on time, made our guests feel comfortable with her, and got every shot that we hoped for. We have received so many compliments on our photos since getting them back (the turnaround time was also very short compared to what my friends have told me about other photographers!). Ashley was a joy to work with and made us feel completely comfortable. We have a great variety of shots and she nailed our style right away. I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding, engagement photo session, or any other event.

, and the finished product turned out awesome. Would definitely recommend.
