From bride, Sarah: “When we began planning our Villa del Sol d’Oro wedding, I found myself drawing all my inspiration from Aaron and my travels in Europe together. There is no place that makes us feel more creative and inspired. I wanted our wedding day to not only reflect that European beauty visually, but more-so to create the atmosphere. I was important to us that our guests’ experience of our day made them feel the way we do strolling the streets of Paris or Florence at night. From the photography, to the flowers, to our live guitarist, every detail intended to capture that historical romance, warm lighting, and rustic elegance, like a cozy gathering in a breathtaking setting. Walking away from the most magical day of our lives thus far, we are most proud of the details that made our wedding day feel like us. Like our wedding day belonged to us and our vision and our love for each other.”

“We are so grateful Ashley and Andreas were one of our wedding planner’s recommended photographers. We spent a long time looking at all of the photographers and I had a hard time choosing since I knew the pictures of us and our families was something immensely important to us. I finally turned to my brother who is also a photographer and he said Ashley’s pictures were the most artistic and really captured emotion. That was all the reassuring I needed to hear. After having the opportunity to meet, it was clear how their personality and passion matched their talent, they are true artists! On our big day Ashley and Andreas were focused, professional and attentive but also so much fun during all the time in between. Group shots were fast, smooth and efficient, and they know exactly how to direct you for individual shots. The images of our special day are something we will always cherish and we couldn’t be more thankful for entrusting that job to Ashley and Andreas.”
