Hey, I'm
ashton
Wedding Photographer | Creative | Ocean Lover | Your Future Hype-Woman
I’m a Jupiter-based wedding photographer specializing in coastal luxury, adventure-filled love stories, and the kind of images that feel like memories the moment you see them.
If we’re being honest:
I’ll probably cry during your vows, laugh with your bridal party like we’ve known each other for years, and cheer embarrassingly loud when the light hits just right. I’m the photographer who cares just as much about how you feel as I do about how your photos look — because the best images come from moments where you’re relaxed, connected, and fully yourself.
Why I Created Ashton Royal Creative
I started ARC with one intention:
To help people see themselves the way I see them — beautiful, confident, alive, and effortlessly themselves.
My style is rooted in storytelling and emotion.
It’s natural and intimate, with a touch of editorial polish.
It’s timeless without being boring.
It’s intentional without feeling stiff.
It’s luxury without being pretentious.
You’re not just getting photos.
You’re getting a photographer who notices the tiny things — the way your partner looks at you, the way your hands fit together, the way your family tears up when they think no one’s watching. That’s the part that matters.
Who I Am Outside the Camera
Photography is a huge part of my life — but not all of it.
Here’s the real-life Ashton your friends will meet the morning of your wedding:
- Amateur surfer who actually loves the humbling chaos of learning something difficult.
- Boat girl through and through — if the sun is out, I’m on the water.
- Dog mom to Lucy & Jules, two German Shorthair Pointers who come boating with me, love everyone they meet, and think they run the world (they’re right).
- Film photography enthusiast obsessed with the nostalgia of imperfect images.
- Traveler at heart — I’ve wandered through cities, coastlines, and quiet corners of the world with my camera in hand. 35 countries and counting!
- Sewing girly, because sometimes creativity hits in different mediums and I go down a rabbit hole of making clothes.
- Highly sentimental but also sarcastic, so you’re getting the best mix of soft and funny.
- Believer in good food, good people, and golden-hour everything.
The truth is:
I care deeply about people.
I care deeply about your experience.
And I care deeply about making you feel seen.
What It’s Like to Work With Me
You’ll feel guided, never overly posed.
Encouraged, never awkward.
Celebrated, never rushed.
I’m the photographer who steps in when you need direction and steps back when you need space. The one who fixes your veil, straightens your tie, pats the sand off your dress, calms your nerves, and hypes you up like it’s second nature.
You’ll walk away with images that feel like you — candid, emotional, warm, joyful, and beautifully lived-in.
If you’re looking for a photographer who…
Treats you like a friend
Captures the emotion between the moments
Blends luxury with authenticity
Keeps your day calm, fun, and intentional
Loves your dog as much as you do
Will travel anywhere your love takes you
…then I’d be honored to tell your story.
Let’s create something unforgettable together.
Kind words from
Ashley S.
"These came out absolutely amazing. Thank you so very much, Ashton!"
Let’s work together
