Becoming a father changed the way I see memories.
Before my daughter Olive was born, I believed the best way to experience life was to put the camera down and simply be present. Watching her grow made me realize how quickly the most meaningful moments pass and how important it is to preserve them exactly as they felt.
That perspective now shapes the way I approach every wedding I film. My work is not just about documenting a day. It is about capturing the atmosphere, the emotion, and the fleeting moments that make it unforgettable.
Because the memories that matter most deserve to be remembered.
Ashley’s journey into photography was anything but traditional. What began as a shy teenager taking self-portraits on a cheap digital camera grew into a calling she couldn’t ignore. After buying her first DSLR in college and shadowing a wedding photographer by chance, she dove headfirst into building her own business. Today, after hundreds of weddings and years behind the lens, Ashley is known for capturing the candid, imperfect moments that tell the most meaningful stories.
Olive is the heart behind Arredondo Films.
She reminds us every day why moments matter and why preserving them is so important.
Her best friend is Mickey Mouse, her favorite things include laughing, napping, and pizza, and she is a mommy girl through and through.
Some of her favorite moments are sitting with us while we edit, watching the stories of so many couples unfold on the screen.
She may be small, but she is the reason behind everything we do.
