Reviews

  • We had Aspen as our wedding photographer and she was fantastic! We had met before but it seemed like we'd know each other for years. She made us feel so comfortable, we are definitely not picture people, yet she made it fun and stress-free. Thank you Aspen!

    —Sara and Dennis Bachman

  • love! love ! love! Aspen is a friendly and communicative photographer. The process is enjoyable and relaxing with her. She's well equipped ( has multiple lenses/ changing tents) . The gallery was delivered timely as well. She even provided a sneak peek which was greatly appreciated. Aspen will create romantic pictures that you will cherish.

  • Talking with Aspen before my session made things easier. I felt prepared and excited! I enjoyed working with Aspen. She was professional, encouraging, and made me feel comfortable.

    —Bryce Ann Hartzell

  • Aspen has been a pleasure to work with! She’s very friendly and patient. Communication is great, and turn over time has not been an issue. The outcome of her work on the project I had envisioned was phenomenal!

Hi, I’m Aspen!

I’m a wedding photographer based in Aberdeen, SD, and a hopeless romantic at heart. I’m drawn to the quiet in-between moments—the stolen glances, soft touches, and the kind of love that feels like home.

My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and true-to-color, so your photos feel honest and timeless—just like you. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me chasing golden light, cuddling dogs, or sipping coffee while daydreaming about someone else’s love story.
