Celebrating love. Celebrating life.
“Ashley cares deeply about helping you build a personal archive that enhances your memories and it shows in every single image.”
“From first contact, Ashley was a calming, positive light in a usually stressful time. From clear and quick communication to just overall incredible vibes, Ashley made the experience really special for us. My now husband hates to be photographed and she was kind, understanding, and up for the challenge. She went above and beyond for us. Everyone who attended loved her and only had positive things to say. We are so beyond delighted our paths crossed. We are going to treasure the photos she took for our whole lives and cannot recommend her work highly enough.”

“Ashley is both an incredible artist and amazing human. She added so much to our wedding, created photographs that we'll treasure forever, and was such a pleasure to work with. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

“Professional, honest, kind, authentic, loving, warm, joyful, patient, and talented are a few of the many ways we would describe Ashley. From our first meeting over Zoom to the last photo taken the evening of our wedding, Ashley was nothing short of incredible. We were drawn to the in-the-moment-photojournalistic quality of her photographs; and we adore the way she was able to effortlessly capture small snippets of time from our wedding without defaulting to stodgy "say cheese" photos. She is highly knowledgeable and an expert in her field, and it shows.
We were in awe when our photographs arrived, tears were shed, and family and friends all marveled at how beautifully she captured our day. Ashley's poise, expertise, and grounding energy are an asset to any couple looking for a photographer to capture their wedding day.”

“Ashley is all heart. This—along with her big energy, sharp talent, welcoming gusto, humble confidence, and ease within her own skin and life experience—makes her chosen craft more than fine art. Ashley's art translates into elevated magic.”

“Hiring Ashley was, hands-down, the best decision we made for our wedding. If you want gorgeous photos, and someone whose warmth and presence will only compound the joy of the day, hiring Ashley will be the easiest decision you make.”

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again—if you need a photographer, BOOK ASHLEY WEEKS CART. The photos are of course stunning, but more than that, we were so happy with how Ashley listened to us and captured the exact vibe we wanted while making us feel reassured and not stressed on the day.”
Leila & Ben || 09.17.22 || Dalton, MA
“Ashley gave us an incredible engagement photoshoot. She possesses a rare mix of emotional intelligence, skill, and good taste, which goes a very long way in a photographer. Her vision is one of authenticity and organicness, so our images felt like true reflections of our relationship and did not feel contrived. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Ashley took wonderful pictures of my daughter and her family while we were all at the beach. From the minute we all tumbled down onto the sand from our car, she was ready with suggestions, laughter, and gentle direction. She was warm and friendly with two toddlers, she instinctively captured magical moments, and she encouraged curiosity and fun groupings. I don't think I am photogenic, but she makes a lie of that statement. I now have photos with my grandchildren, and with my sister, that I simply love. I've known Ashley for 20 years, and her vibrant spirit is ever infectious, her creativity boundless, and her photos precious.”

“Ashley shot our engagement and wedding photos, and we could not be happier with them! Beyond just loving the photos, we loved the experience of working with Ashley - neither my husband or I are particularly comfortable in front of a camera, but Ashley made the whole process easy and enjoyable. We felt so at ease with Ashley, and you can see that comfort translated in our pictures, which capture us at our best and our happiest. She is truly the best!!”
Sophie & Chris || 09.02.23 || New Albany, OH
“Ashley shot our intimate Vermont wedding. She used her professional and creative eye to capture the most naturalistic beauty with a journalistic edge. Neither of us are naturals in front of the camera, and Ashley made us feel at ease and more comfortable than we imagined possible. She hyped us up when necessary and brought an overwhelming sense of calm in the midst of chaos. It didn't feel posed or predetermined, but allowed for the moments to speak for themselves. Ashley truly captures the EMOTION. She is kind, patient, most importantly fun. When we got the images, my wife and I were in complete awe. We were able to relive the best day of our lives all over again through entering the time capsule of images she shared.”

“I don't even know how to summarize how amazing Ashley was as a photographer and how gorgeous her work is. We have received so many compliments from friends and family who attended our wedding saying they can't believe how beautiful our pictures are.
And perhaps the biggest compliment of all: my photo-refusing husband felt comfortable and happy taking the photos AND thinks they look great.
I cannot say enough to recommend Ashley. She is an over the top fantastic photographer and also a great human to have around on your day.”
Anna & Keith || 04.02.22 || Durham, NC
“Ashley was such a joy to work with. Ashley had awesome energy and was so flexible and patient, especially with 3 pups running around. Even before we received the full collection of photos (way more shots than we were expecting), our family was commenting on how great Ashley was. She captured some beautiful group shots, but the candids really blew us away. Everyone’s been raving.
We can’t recommend Ashley enough!!”

“Ashley is awesome! So relaxed and made us feel so at ease during our wedding photos. I love her photographic eye for capturing the natural moment and great lighting. The edits are amazing, yet not overdone. We were initially on the fence about hiring a photographer for our small, low budget wedding, but I am so, so happy we chose Ashley to capture our intimate day. So worth it and no regrets! Beautiful photos! Would definitely hire her again.”
