Telling Love-Filled Stories with Purpose, Joy & Grace
Hi, I’m Ashley, the photographer behind Valley & Vine Photography. I’m a Tampa, Florida-based wedding and family photographer serving couples and families who value connection, intention and authentic moments.
At the core of everything I do is my faith. As a devoted follower of Jesus, my work is deeply rooted in love, service, and purpose. I believe that photography is not just about images, it’s about honoring the people God has placed in my path and telling their stories with integrity, joy, and grace. I see each session as an opportunity to reflect the beauty of creation and the goodness of meaningful relationships. Whether I'm capturing a wedding, a growing family, or a tender moment between two people in love, my goal is to preserve the emotions and connections that make life so precious.
A few things to know about me:
• I’m a wife, a follower of Jesus, and so grateful to be living out my God given purpose.
• I spent years as a teacher and counselor, which shaped the way I connect with and truly see people.
• I love to laugh, find joy in the little things, and keep sessions feeling relaxed and fun.
• I’m drawn to natural light, open air, and the quiet in between moments that often mean the most.
• Give me a vanilla iced latte and a good book, and I’m a happy girl.
When I’m not behind the camera, my husband and I love spending time together with our sweet pup, Smoky. We’ve been together for four years, ever since our “marathon” date that never seemed to end. We’ve built a simple, joyful life here in Florida, filled with outdoor adventures, fishing trips on the boat, and plenty of sunshine. Smoky’s usually right there with us, tagging along for boat rides or snoozing. Whether we’re grilling barbecue, enjoying sushi, or binge-watching comedy specials and sitcoms like How I Met Your Mother, we’re happiest just being together.
It is truly an honor to do this work, not just as a photographer, but as someone called to serve others through creativity and connection. Thank you for considering me to be part of your story. I cannot wait to meet you and create something meaningful and timeless together.
Lots of love, Ashley
