Hi there, I’m Ashley Edmunds and I photograph weddings all over the world but my heart is in Virginia.
I grew up in Richmond, lived in the heart of Shenandoah for 7 years, and then found my way back to Richmond. Once you get to know me, you’ll see I’m a little Richmond obsessed. I can help you find the best restaurant, park, or brewery for any part of this wonderful city. I love photographing weddings here at home, in Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, DC, and beyond! When I’m not photographing weddings I’m most likely chasing River, my yellow lab trying to get a shoe out of his mouth, teaching my high school kiddos, or traveling with my amazing fiance Craig.

Tuckahoe Plantation Engagement | Elijah & Kara

Engagement

June 5, 2020

I FINALLY GOT TO TAKE PICTURES OF ONE OF MY COUPLES!!!!! Ya’ll winter is slow season for wedding photographers so in March when things get started back up, I get SO excited. Unfortunately, this March was a different story with the virus! When Kara texted me that she reserved time at Tuckahoe Plantation for her and Elijah’s engagement pictures in June, I got SO excited!! We were very secluded and basically had the whole plantation home and grounds to ourselves. This engagement session was extra special to me because Kara is in my bible study. Her and Elijah have been together for 7 years and both are amazing people. Elijah owns a lawn care business and Kara is a labor and delivery nurse here in Richmond. They are getting married next April in Fluvanna, Va and I’m so excited they chose me to be apart of their big day! One thing that stuck out to me about these two during their session was how much FUN they are together. You’ll see in their pictures they are constantly making each other smile and laughing together. We had the best time exploring the grounds and the golden light.
