Stop searching! Book Ash!

It really is going to be difficult to articulate just how much of an impact Ash left on me and my wife, on our wedding day.

The whole experience was incredible, with Ash approaching our day not as a "job" but as an experience he wanted to be part of - he was as excited as us, to capture those moments and document the smiles, tears, laughter and drunk dancing (!).

The pre-wedding conversations were open and collaborative, and on the day Ash came and just elevated the day with his presence - his eye for a shot, his humanity and most of all his positivity and passion for what he clearly loves doing - taking your picture!

No question about it, we would do it all again exactly the same - do not hesitate, book Ash you will not regret it!

Thank you Ash, you literally made our day.

Amazing memories created

What can I say? Ash was amazing and created memories we will never forget, he became part of our day and almost every guest commented about what a nice relaxed man he was. Our photos are amazing and returned back to us very quickly. Best choice I made for my wedding (besides the groom of course)

Beautifully captured our small ceremony

Initially we didn't think we were going to get a photographer since we had such an intimate ceremony but going with Ash was the best decision we could have made. From pictures of the cerermony, to group pictures and our individual pictures captured around York, we couldn't be happier. He helped guide us through posing since we had no idea what we were doing but also captured the essence of the day with beautiful candid shots.

A gifted, creative and brilliant photographer

Ash was an absolute delight to work with from start to finish. He was ultra professional, super creative with lots of ideas and really thought outside the box. He really made you feel important and made sure that he captured all your special moments. He really got us as a couple and put in some special personal touches for us. He made sure he knew the venues beforehand and was incredibly thoughtful and a pleasure to have there on the day - just unobtrusively being brilliant as well as being able to put together some super group shots. l couldn't recommend him enough.

One word.. Amazing

We honestly could not recommend Ash enough. From day one , Ash was professional, polite, friendly and understanding of what we wanted on our day. Every single person commented on what a genuine person Ash was, I honestly felt like I had known him years , he actually felt part of the family ! And what can I say about the photos he caught .. WOW! I told ash that no one would ever take a photo of me that I would like , he took that as a challenge and succeeded massively! I love them all. You really won't be disappointed if you book Ash Groom for your big day ❤️

What a find! Amazing & lovely photographer

We booked Ash Groom as our wedding photographer and we are so glad we did and would wholeheartedly recommend him. The photos have come out excellently - I'm so impressed with Ash's ability to capture all of the day's details, guests and funny/happy moments naturally. We shared the online gallery with our guests to great excitement and we've had lots of compliments on the photos for being of such a high standard and a lot of fun to look through. Your wedding day goes by super quickly so photos are so important to help you look back and remember the details and keep the memories, so I'm really grateful for them. Ash is a dream to work with - he's responsive, calm, friendly, patient, thorough and extremely hard working. We opted for a non traditional wedding and he was so enthusiastic about our ideas. You can tell he really cares about what he does and enjoys it. Thank you Ash!

Amazing from start to finish, he felt like a guest!

I honestly couldn’t recommend Ash more if I tried!

We met beforehand and had regular catch ups via message, he was happy to take on all my crazy ideas around the types of photos I wanted to capture and when we met we did a bit of a walk through as we were getting married in a city, so most of our photos were outdoors. He was amazing from the outset, always there for me to send messages to, ask questions etc. and even before the big day I knew I had made the right decision choosing him.

On the day he just blended in, we all felt so comfortable having him around, posing and by the end he was honestly part of the family.

Of course, most importantly the pictures were STUNNING!! I could not have been happier, so many shots I didn’t even realise because he took so many candid ones and got all the right angles, plus like I said he blended in so well sometimes I forgot he was there, which was exactly what I wanted.

We also received our pictures much quicker than I expected, beautifully laid out in our own little website. I honestly must have gone through them about 100 times because there were just so many.
He was fantastic and extremely good value for money.
If your looking for a photographer for any occasion, get him booked! You won’t regret it.

I attached some of my favourite photos (and believe me when I say it was hard to pick just a few)

Woodland wedding

Ash was amazing from the moment I contacted him. Very professional and caring and we found we had many things in common with him. We met for a pre wedding walk around the venue to scope where some shots could be taken. He was amazing on the night and my family loved having him around. Would highly recommend!!

Truly amazing!

Where do I start with Ash? We’re so lucky to have found someone as amazing as him capture our day. From the start, he exhibited a perfect blend of professionalism and warmth. His keen eye and creative flair captured every special moment with finesse. He seamlessly navigated through the wedding day, ensuring no precious detail was missed. The final photos were beyond our expectations—each frame showed the joy and love of the day. His talent for storytelling through images transformed our wedding album into a cherished keepsake. We are immensely grateful for his skill, dedication, and the timeless memories he’s created. Highly recommended!

An Amazing experience

We had booked Ash because we loved his style of photography and he had previously photographed at our venue before.

I’m so glad we did, our wedding photos are unbelievably beautiful, so much care and passion went into the photos Ash took, and they do represent how much Ash loves his job.

He arrived at our venue for 9:30am to start taking pictures, he listened to what me and my husband visioned our pictures to be like. One of them being the last dance, not only did Ash go above and beyond but he stayed way past his hours just for our last dance when everyone went home!

He is so talented, he edited a picture of my mother in law who sadly passed before the wedding, Ash new how hard the day would be without her and prepared an amazing photo of her on our wedding day for us to cherish forever.

I have so much appreciation, gratitude and love for Ash, he is so down to earth and has great character!
Myself and my family will continue to use Ash’s services in the future, birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers!

Thank you Ash for being you, for loving your job and making other people feel amazing, beautiful and loved.

Words cannot describe how grateful we are for you and your work!

We highly recommend Ash Groom, he was amazing!

We cannot recommend Ash Groom Photography enough! Ash is a lovely person who made sure that we were all on the same page of what shots we wanted.
Prior to the wedding we had 2 zoom calls and our engagement shoot - every time we met Ash we were reminded of his calm nature and wonderful artistic ideas. We knew we’d picked the right person.
He is extremely professional and arrived with time to spare. He never made us feel rushed. He also got in touch with our videographer beforehand so they could work as a team.
The guests all loved him as well and at times (in the nicest way possible) we didn’t notice he was there as he was excellent at taking candid shots.
The gallery he has put together has made us so happy and they captured our special day perfectly.

Amazing photographer

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer you couldn’t ask for better than Ash.
In the run up to the wedding we chatted over email and zoom with him to plan what we wanted to do on the day, including leaving to go up the nearby hills to get some amazing pictures.
He was absolutely brilliant on the day and was so friendly, all of our guests commented on what a great photographer he was.
We got 10 pictures back the day after the wedding which I loved as we had something to look at while we waited for the rest, and we got these very quickly too.
Most importantly the photos are incredible, you can tell that Ash is passionate about photography and he’s just an all round lovely person.

The best photographer there is!!

Ash was amazing at our wedding and went above and beyond to make sure we got the perfect photos of our Wedding day!

Ash met with us on zoom prior to our wedding day to check in and discuss with us which photos we would like of our day. We also then had a pre wedding shoot at our wedding location which was perfect for planning photos for the day.

Ash sent us some pictures the day after our wedding and was speedy in then sending the rest.
Ash has a clear love for photography and worked so hard so make sure he captured the best shots.

Thanks again.
