Cape Town based wedding & lifestyle photographer

Hello, I’m Ashleigh. A Cape Town based lifestyle and wedding photographer ready to capture your most precious day.

If you’re looking for a calm, warmhearted, helpful photographer then you’ve come to the right place.

Having to pick a wedding photographer is not easy and probably one of your biggest decisions you’ll have to make – I get you! I’m here to help you and serve you as best as I can.

With shooting over 70 weddings I’ve gained enough experience to guide you and share valuable tips. We will make this experience an incredible one!

I’m here to capture your most precious moments, your laughing moments and your crying moments – I most probably will cry with you!

And don’t worry if you’re shy, most people are. Not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera but that is where I come in. I have a knack for making people feel comfy. Like I always tell my couples “Just be yourselves, act as if I’m not here”. I guide my couples and let their flow and movement take over.

When I’m not shooting I’m grabbing a cappuccino and enjoying Cape Town’s beautiful sunsets. I also love watching Superstore and Friends on Netflix. I’m a foodie and have a big sweet tooth – cheesecake for the win!

If you think we can join forces and make magic happen then hit me up, head over to my contacts page and fill in the form.

I look forward to capturing your wedding day.

Love, Ashleigh

About a month ago I booked a surprise mini session for my husband's birthday. We then got to experience what it's like to be a client of AshSwartz. What we love about her style is that she allows you to be natural and tries not to force poses - which is exactly the style my husband and I love. We're both weird and silly and love laughing images but also beautiful moments kind of images. She portrayed exactly that. When you're able to look at images of yourself and feel strong emotions, that's when you know your Photographer did an amazing job. Thank you for being considerate, kind and patient. I will continue to recommend you.

Ash, is just beyond amazing. Incredibly professional combined with a warm and sincere personality. She made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera which is then captured in the photos. Her talent and passion is most definitely depicted in her work. She is highly recommended by me. And I look forward to future shoots with her.

Absolutely would recommend! She's such a warm and friendly person and made the experience very comfortable, it showed in the pictures.

Highly recommended without reservations. Ashleigh Swartz work is of a high standard. She always goes above and beyond in her efforts to improve her deliverables. I'm looking forward to my next shoot!!!

It took us a while to find the right photographer for our wedding - so happy that we kept searching and found Ash! She's very professional, accommodating and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera 🙂 Not to mention the quality of her photos. Highly recommend using her services.
