Ashlyn is incredible! We are so glad we choose her for our engagement shoot and wedding photos. From the first outreach, she was very communicative and flexible, and patiently answ...
ered all my questions and came up with suggestions to fit our unique non-traditional wedding needs. Every step of the way was clear and easy. We had limited experience posing for photos and Ashlyn had great direction that felt easy to follow. When we saw the photos from both the engagement shoot and wedding, we were blown away at how beautiful they were and how she perfectly captured the moments, emotions, and intimate details of the day. She was also very flexible with a lot of hurricane-related last minute changes we had with our wedding which was very helpful. We are so grateful to have these memories preserved so perfectly. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also a joy to work with, look no further! Highly recommend!!
Our experience with Ashlyn and Sea and Shea was amazing from start to finish! Ashlyn from the booking process through delivery of our edited wedding photos has been a joy to work w...
ith. Our time has been so great with Ashlyn and her fun and bubbly personality really keeps the long days of photos light and carefree. We were kind of against doing engagement photos but after a couple of hours running around downtown Charleston and really getting to know her and feel more comfortable in front of the camera it did help tremendously on wedding day. Also, our engagement photos turned out AMAZING! Day of wedding, Ashlyn and her team were professional and on top of it. She got all the shots I wanted and more and our end result photos could not have turned out more perfect :) we are still in awe at the results. Not only do you get an amazing photographer and great photos but she is reasonably priced as well, perfect combination! 10/10 recommend!
Now our problem is we found over 500+ photos to get printed and put around our house, which is a little excessive but they are all so good we can't decide.
Ashlyn & her team are absolute rockstars! They were a true highlight of my day and went above and beyond to help in any way possible and make everything stress-free and fun. We had...
an outdoor wedding and it was a very windy day and her and the team would help out in moments that weren’t even their responsibility. She had amazing communication leading up to the wedding, during the day, and afterwards. She delivered our photos quickly and posted the most amazing content leading up to the gallery delivery. She also made me feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured a lot of cute candids that are so special to see after the day is over. I cannot recommend Sea + Shea enough. This is a vendor I truly could not have lived without! Not only are the photos 10/10 amazing but the experience of working with someone who really cares about your day and takes the time to get to know you makes all the difference. I felt a connection to her and the team and they saved my windy chaotic wedding day! You can tell they love what they do by how much fun they exude and the photos that they deliver.
Words can’t truly express how stunned I am by the photos I now have to memorialize our special day. Not only is she heartfelt and kind, she also has a fantastic turnaround time whi...

g which is truly unheard of in the industry and one reason she’ll always be the first person I recommend!! We continue to get tons of compliments on our photos and Ashlyn’s great editing style! I can’t recommend Ashlyn enough!!
Ashlyn was just what we needed for our microwedding. She kept it simple and sweet, and my husband (who hates having his picture taken) even said it wasn’t that bad. The turnaround ...
time on my photos was surprisingly fast. Ashlyn even dropped off my wedding album in person just 1 week after the wedding. I’ve received several compliments on my photos.
I will never forget how wonderful AH Studios are! We were left last minute without a photographer, it was a holiday weekend, and I contacted Ashley only a week before the wedding, ...
panicked. Ashley went above and beyond to find a photographer from her team for me, Aurora, and together they made it happen. Aurora drove 2 hours to get to our location, and nothing but kindness from both. I 100% recommended AH Studios. Not one bad thing to say. Thank you all again so much!
Great experience!! Loved both our engagement and wedding photos!

rfection!!! Would recommend and use her again in a second!
After canceling our elopement twice because of Covid, we opted for an intimate outdoor wedding at my family's house...with not much time to plan. I was the totally unprepared bride...
with no bridal party, and Ashlyn was a LIFE SAVER. Not only did she take beautiful pictures, she was clutch as I was getting ready and helped the day stay organized and flow smoothly. We had our pictures back in a couple days and an awesome little video that captured the day. Highly recommend for her professionalism, quick turn around, attentiveness, beautiful product, etc!!
AH Studios was hands down the best decision I made in my wedding planning process! I’ve followed her work for many years and when the opportunity stuck to book her for our wedding ...
we did not hesitate! Ashlyn was amazing every step of the way! She went above and beyond her role of photographing the wedding. She answered every silly question i threw at her, even when it didn’t apply to photos! She helped to keep us on time with our schedule and patient and accommodating when we ran a little behind! I could see the thought and dedication she puts into her work and she 100% DID NOT disappoint! She caught every little intimate moment, & every laugh! They say to take in as many moments as you can because the day will speed past and be over before you know it, and they’re right! However, I am beyond thankful to have had her by my side on our wedding day, because I can relive those memories over and over again for many years to come through these beautiful photos! An extra plus was she was willing to travel to Florida for both our engagement photos and the wedding! If your in the market to book AH Studios, RUN don’t walk! I PROMISE you won’t regret it!!!!
AH Studios, we are so thankful for you and your Talent! Forever grateful!!♥️
