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. 

I am SO excited to share Ellie and Joe’s Quirk Hotel, Second Baptist, Common House wedding day!! From an outside prospective this wedding could have had tons of opportunities to get behind schedule and because of their incredible planning and vendors- we were actually ahead of schedule all day long! Joe and the guys got […]

Spring Maymont I actually can’t believe we almost rescheduled this session!! Grace and Lewey live in Wilmington, North Carolina and were only in town for the weekend. The forecast for Friday night showed extreme gusts of wind so we discussed moving the session but decided it was best since they were only in town for […]
