HOW TO CHOOSE A WEDDING COLLECTION


Most couples who have a standard 5-6 hour wedding (including ceremony and reception), will need up to 10 hours to capture everything. (I mean, if Martha Stewart says so, who am I to argue?)

For reference, here’s how long things take on average:

  • Details & Prep: 2-3 hours

  • First Look & Portraits: 30-45 minutes

  • Bridal Party: 30-45 minutes

  • Family Formals: 30 minutes

(And that’s not including the actual wedding ceremony and reception time.)

Basically, if you’re worried about running out of time or not being able to capture all the details you worked so hard on, the safest bet is to book the full 10 hours. (Plus you’ll get a complimentary engagement session AND an additional bridal or anniversary portrait session.) 

If you book a wedding collection, you’ll find a detailed sample timeline in your Wedding Guide!

Ashley is an amazing photographer!

She helped me with so many tasks during my wedding day and was even willing to bring me food and drinks. Her editing skills and personality will be the perfect addition to your wedding day. I highly recommend Ashley! And yes we love her so much my MOH decided to hire Ashley as her wedding day photographer as well! Much love Ashley, God bless you!

For me, photography was…

one of the highest priorities for our wedding day. After exploring the market and conducting thorough research, Ashley Ricci Photography stood out to me because of her cost effectiveness, her communication, and her artistry. Ashley does a PHENOMENAL job at making her clients feel beautiful, comfortable, and truly the focus of the day. My fiancé and I are Charlotteans, and we traveled to the beautiful Max Patch in Asheville, NC for our engagement photos. Though it got below freezing, she communicated with us SO effectively and captured some beautiful moments! I would HIGHLY recommend this wonderful photographer for any event. Thank you, Ashley, for bringing out photos to life!

I can’t say enough…

amazing things about Ashley. She is sweet, responsive, talented and fairly priced! Ashley made our wedding day go so smoothly. She captured every moment beautifully and there is not one picture in my gallery that I don’t absolutely love. I would recommend her 1,000 times over and over!

10/10 Recommend!

We can’t wait to hire Ashley again in the future! Ashley photographed our engagement shoot last fall (2018) and to this day, my husband and I are still getting compliments on the photos. Just last week Ashley photographed our wedding and she did an incredible job! Being photographed is awkward but she made everyone very comfortable and the pictures show. She was willing to help in any way she could while getting ready and was very flexible when things were running behind. My husband has been bragging about how he loved how she really got the “good moments”, not just the “stand and pose” moments. Above all else, Ashley’s photos are GORGEOUS. Check out her Instagram for a preview of her work. She is affordable and will not disappoint.
