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 down to the contact section and fill in the form.

I look forward to capturing your wedding day.

Kind words

I would recommend Ashleigh to anyone and everyone looking for a wedding, family and lifestyle photographer. She captured both our engagement images and our wedding in 2021 with such a cool, creative eye. She has a great work ethic, quick turn-around time, is professional in all encounters and just a wonderful human. She will make you feel at ease (even if you are initially awkward infront of the camera like we were) and bring out the feelings for the best shots. She will for sure be capturing all of our life events in future. Thank you Ash!

It was the best decision I made to choose Ashleigh to capture our special day. I am still in awe of the breathtaking photos. Ashleigh made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera while subtly directing us on how to stand, smile, and pose. She knows what she's doing and it definitely shows in the final product. She is so patient and kind, really an absolute joy to work with. I would recommend Ashleigh any day for any type of shoot. She is such a talented young lady with the world of experience and has an eye for the unseen beauty to be captured. I love how she plays with light in each photo, ensuring that every photo tells a different story. Thank you thank you thank you! I will forever be overjoyed when looking at my wedding photos hanging on my walls and wedding albums on my coffee table.

Bright Ndhlovu and I enjoyed our wedding day to the fullest. Only after, we would see that Ash had intricately captured each moment. She did it seamlessly, without disrupting the space. We were so comfortable during our shoot. Ash was spontaneously responsive to the beauty of each changing moment - making us normal people look like supermodels in the end. From the mountains to the multi-cultured crowd, the freedom and vibrancy of the event is not lost on even one photo. We're also grateful for the clear communication throughout the process! Thanks AshSwartz Photography.

Ashleigh is a very professional and efficient photographer. She's experienced and brings her wealth of knowledge to the party when it comes to photographing an event. She has very calm and easygoing persona, and is thus really easy to work with. Ashleigh's pictures are absolutely beautiful and her turn around time for the final product is quite quick as well. I would highly recommend her to photograph any wedding or event. Thanks Ash!
