  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

Hey there, I’m Ashton! I’m all about capturing love stories that are adventurous, fun, and full of laughter. If you’re the kind of couple who doesn’t mind kicking off your shoes to dance barefoot, sneaking away for golden-hour kisses, or laughing until your cheeks hurt, I’m your girl. I want to be your hype-woman, and the person who makes sure your story is told exactly how you want it, messy tears, wild dance moves and all. Weddings are my happy place, and nothing lights me up more than documenting a day overflowing with love. So let’s make some magic together, you bring the love story, I’ll bring the camera.

Ashton really is such a great photographer & person. She made it so easy to be comfortable in front of her and her camera. Doing the boudoir shoot with her was not easy for me, but she made it easy. Didn’t even think twice about what I was wearing lol she made my husband and I so comfortable, really listened to what we wanted and captured our wedding day/relationship perfectly. Looking at our wedding albums seriously looks like we’re watching a movie of the day. So many candid effortless pictures. She caught the emotion, the fun, the ugly, the love, the happiness. EVERYTHING. Ashton pays attention to the details, she has your back, most importantly she makes you feel comfortable. I will 100% be booking her for future family portraits. As long as she’s a photographer, she’ll my photographer. Thank you Ashton for capturing all of our special moments.

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can. Woman/LGBTQIA+ Owned

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Mary for our engagement photos and were absolutely thrilled with the results. She made us feel at ease right away, and we ended up with so many photos that looked (and felt!) so comfortable and so "us." There were no moments that felt awkward or posed, and she took the time to make sure we had captured many memories we'll cherish for a lifetime. We ended up getting married abroad, but if we had stayed local we would have been thrilled to work with Mary again for the big day itself. We can't recommend her highly enough!

We hired Jeff to take photos for an intimate outdoor ceremony (us and 12 guests). The planning process was easy and stress free. Jeff slotted himself into the day seamlessly to capture candid moments in the ceremony and the time leading up to it. He was familiar with the venue (Ijams Nature Center) and we took a jaunt through the park after, where he was able to direct us to some of his favorite spots to take photos throughout. Jeff matched our vibe perfectly and made us feel comfortable and genuine throughout. And--of course--the photos came out beautifully.

Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry and stress about photos. Day of the wedding, she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She worked with me on some odd family and friend dynamics and eliminated any worries I had. She did a fantastic job of catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

My husband and I are beyond grateful for Kyle of Kyle Campbell Photography! If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, kind, and truly talented, Kyle is your person. He was so flexible when our engagement shoot didn’t go exactly as planned, adjusting quickly and effortlessly and our photos turned out to be phenomenal! On our wedding day, he arrived not only on time but early and followed us throughout the day without ever making us feel overwhelmed. He respected our timeline, guided us with a creative eye, helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera. He also made sure to capture every photo on our request list. What I loved most about working with Kyle, though, is how he truly captured what it FELT like to be at our wedding. From candid moments and guest interactions to the small, intimate glimpses we didn’t even realize were happening, he caught it all so beautifully. The love, the pure joy, and the emotions on the faces of everyone who attended shines through in every photo of our gallery. His work was worth every penny and then some; we know that these are images we’ll treasure for a lifetime! We’d be honored to work with him again someday for future family photos. Kyle is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but also a genuinely kind and thoughtful person. We’re so grateful he was there to capture such a special moment in our lives.
