Ashley Guice Creative

  • Serves Lake Leelanau, MI for additional fees

Ashley Guice Creative is a Phoenix-based luxury wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of human connection. Since 2017, Ashley Guice has been creating stunning images that blend artistic flair with genuine emotion. With over seven years of experience in photography and a decade-long background in the arts, she brings a unique perspective to every event she covers.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Ashley! From start to finish, she was an absolute joy to work with. Her attention to detail and creativity truly brought our vision to life, capturing every moment beautifully. We had an unfortunate cancellation of our original venue, and with our new venue having a completely different look, Ashley was a great thought partner in scouting locations and helping us achieve the look and feel in our photos that we were going for. Despite the challenges of a venue change and the usual wedding planning craziness, Ashley remained positive, resourceful, and was also just down right fun to work with! Ashley is a true artist, dedicated to the artful execution of every detail. Nothing felt cookie-cutter or ordinary—she took the time to understand our vision and how we wanted to remember the day and then actualized it through her artistic lens. I wanted something artful, chic, and elevated but also real, candid, and documentary-style—and Ashley delivered exactly that. She was also fantastic at understanding how we wanted to be photographed throughout the day. More than anything, she made sure our enjoyment of the day was a priority over just "getting the perfect shot," which was crucial for us. We were able to enjoy every moment, and the photos capture that perfectly. Her team was amazing, too! We got to work with two of her assistant photographers, and they were just as supportive and friendly as Ashley. We would recommend AGC to any couple looking for a photography team who is dedicated to capturing the essence of your wedding in a way that feels unique, personal, and meaningful. - L & L

She showed up the day of her wedding ready to roll and jumped right into action. She made us feel comfortable and confident and helped make our day run so smoothly. She worked well with all the other vendors and helped in anyway she could to make the day go perfectly. She got our sneak peaks back to us so incredibly quickly and our full gallery was available in what seemed like record time. We will forever choose Alli for all of our photo needs!!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

For me, that means fine teacups on a Wednesday, bouquets for no reason, and a home full of antiques. This also translates to my photography style!

Alaura was so easy to work with from day one. She is extremely responsive and understood our vision. When we got the final photos back we were so excited because they captured everything we wanted and more. She was also very organized and ready to go on the day of the wedding! Highly recommend Alaura and we hope to use her in the future for more of our milestones in life.

In every single wedding photo we received, we were able to easily relive such special, intimate moments. She has such a story-telling vision that is so comforting when the hectic-ness of a wedding can be so heightened.

Calling all misfits, those deeply in love, the nerds, the don't give a flying f***, just authentically you! Behind the camera: I am cracking bad jokes & cramming myself into strange spaces to get the shot. Behind the editing screen: I am smiling, getting high off the emotion of the moment captured. No shame, it’s why I do what I do. I love love. But I guess that's why you are here right? My style: Authentic, timeless, classic & filmy nostalgia. I capture those in-between moments, the messy, the loud, the intimate & the joyful ugly cry. Then you can feel like vogue for every other moment to show the world the rockstars that you are.

Sam photographed my Mexico destination wedding and I absolutely couldn’t be happier. Not only did she capture every intimate and beautiful moment, but she also brought a fun and relaxed energy to what could have otherwise been stressful family management. Her style is elegant and fanciful in a way that makes me feel like I’m living in that memory every time I flip through our wedding album. I couldn’t recommend her enough and only wish I had more events to drag her across the globe for!

Hi! It's nice to meet you. I would shake your hand, but I'm more of a fist-bump type of gal. 😃 I have worked full-time as a math and special education teacher for over 20 years, and nearing my 40's, decided to pursue photography since it has been a life-long interest of mine. In 2019, I completed a digital photography degree and while it originally started as a hobby, my work gained a following so I decided to make things official in 2020. Over the past couple of years, my focus has been on photographing families in addition to couples in love. Getting a couple who's madly in love in front of your camera is pure magic!

Hello, Hello! I'm Allyson & I own Kiser Images based in DFW & West Texas but I was raised around the world — meaning I like to go to there (wherever you are). I am the photographer for the romantic and artist. My clients love romance novels and museums! They are in love and don’t care who knows it. They read for fun, think life is magical, & get excited when we create literal art together. My clients hire me for my expertise, artistic vision, & the truly personalized experience they cannot receive anywhere else!

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! Allyson is seriously the BEST! My photos turned out phenomenal, she has been so communicative, and is just so fun! From adjusting the time line with my coordinator to dancing on the dance floor with me to some of my favorite songs, all while capturing the BEST moments, she truly does it all! So grateful for her hard work and presence the day of!

I mix editorial and documentary style photography for a wedding gallery that feels nostalgic and luxurious. I am here to make the never-shot-before-couple look like they belong in a magazine spread and I will capture candid, living, details and moments on your wedding day that will bring you back to that first touch time and time again. We are a husband and wife team that offers wedding photography and super 8 films. We also have a team of associate photographers for those on a budget.

She is wonderful and always exceeds my expectations. I’ve been working with her forever and she always makes posing organic and comfortable. There’s always an artistic creative spin on my photos that are so timeless and beautiful!
