Destination wedding + elopement photographer

Tennessee based but traveling where you need me

Ashley here - & I'm ready to capture every single moment you share on your big day.

If you’re a rule breaker, you’re not a fan of tradition, or maybe you want your wedding day to be a literal adventure- I’m here for it and I’m the photographer + videographer for you. Let’s break the status quo and chase some of the most beautiful landscapes on earth, the kind of location that’s so breathtaking it feels unreal. I know weddings are known for being a big ceremony with tons of guests, but it doesn’t HAVE to be. It’s your day, and if you want to elope in the desert alone or in Olympic National Park let nothing stop you.


When you book me for your wedding / elopement day you're getting a bond way before the big day happens! I take great pride in delivering an incredible client experience, from the moment you inquire with me- to your wedding photo / video delivery.

Hi friend,

I know what really matters to you

How do you want your story to be told?

Whether it’s just the two of you or some of your closest friends and family, how do you picture your day- Imagine a day with NO LIMITS. Are you eloping somewhere in Greece, are you surrounded by the mountains, or saying “I do” with the waves crashing in the background? I’ve never heard anyone say they regret eloping or getting married in an epic location! I can’t wait to hear from you and capture one of the best days of your lives.

“Ashley was so amazing to work with, when it came to needing a last minute photographer for our engagement/wedding photos. She did such an amazing job and we couldn't be happier with how all of our photos turned out from our special day. She literally fit right in and felt like part of the family. Her photography skills are remarkable and we are in love with every photo and moment she captured that we don't just have one favorite, but all of our pictures are our absolute favorite. Highly recommend and if ever we need a photographer in the area again she would be who we choose. Thanks so much Ashley you are truly a blessing. Much love to you.”

“Ashley Barnes was a great photographer for my wedding! She knew exactly what I was picturing and I adore the photos she took. I'm so glad I had her as my photographer since her photos were better than the ones I saw locally. I got great pictures for an amazing price. She was friendly and accommodating. If I ever get pictures taken professionally again, she will be my go to!”

“Ashley was so wonderful to work with. We had an engagement session with her originally planned for sunset. I especially liked how proactive she was about making sure we had the best session. Unfortunately due to weather we had to change the timing of our photos. Ashley reached out to us a couple days ahead of time as she noticed the weather may be an issue and was so flexible and responsive when we had to make a shift in our plans. Despite not having a sunset landscape like we originally planned our photos turned out amazing!”
