Like any interesting character, there are two sides to me. My business persona is an intensely driven, detail-oriented, logistical whiz with a big heart for learning people's backstories. Behind-the-scenes Ashley is more of a cozy sloth, with a penchant for warm hugs, live theatre, and literary escapism. Both versions of me are fueled by a generous pour of gin, a hell of a lot of compassion, and a bone-deep belief that there is beauty in every soul. Turns out, that combination is the perfect recipe for a passionate wedding & portrait photographer with a simple approach to creating timeless, intimate imagery.
Becoming a mom has been eye-opening. Now, more than ever, I believe in celebrating the mundane as consequential. As we build rapport & I understand your unique priorities, I will find the moments and the feelings that will transport you back in time through photographs. My empathy shines through in my work. It's not unusual for me to crawl around on the ground with the kids during a family session or tear up behind the lens at least once or twice on a wedding day. (But don't worry - the photos will still be in focus!) I meet people where they are & find joy in photographing their honest experiences.
In my spare moments, you won't find me behind a camera, cell phone, or clicking away on my laptop. Instead, you can find me perfecting my short spine massage on the Pilates reformer, hiking through the woods with my two perfect mutts, or chasing my crazy toddler around his favorite trampoline park. Since I spend an inordinate amount of time speeding along 95 between my home & our two studio locations, I also love belting out show tunes, bopping along to EDM playlists, and listening to the latest Romantasy series.

From the first email you send me to the moment you pick up your custom wedding album, I am personally here to guide you, answer your questions, and create a seamless wedding photography experience. Whether I'm behind the camera on your day or not, you'll always have a direct line to me. Whether hanging out in our East Norriton studio, reviewing all of the details of your day, or just sharing laughter at the memories of the day, the best part of what I do is building bonds with so many joyful couples each year. I am in a people business because I genuinely love human connection & relationships
Not only do I have a heart for all of my clients, but I love every person on my team of incredible wedding pros, from my lead shooters who have worked alongside me since my first weddings to my newest assistants. By supporting them and with their help, I have been able to capture weddings of all types from intimate elopements to epic events with guest lists of several hundred. Having a core team to shoot with regularly and share in the Ashley Gerrity Photography ethos, you can trust that we'll be there for every joyful moment, including the in-betweens, while you & your partner experience each moment fully!
