NOTE: Darlene has the original thank you notes and testimonials for viewing.
Darlene Ashley has been our family photographer for many years. She has taken wonderful
family photographs and some great portraits of our teenage son and daughter. I wouldn't trust
anyone else to capture our precious memories. She has an incredibly creative eye, and is a
pleasure to work with, since she obviously loves what she does."
The Manuccias
Darlene is very professional and meticulous in setting up poses, and has a special gift in
capturing that unique moment which encapsulates a lifetime of memories. She conducts herself in
a quiet and gentle way that is unobtrusive. She has a sweet personality, and was very patient
with us (and with our uncooperative dog). The quality of the photographs was exceptional, and
the best we have ever had in 35 plus years of being photographed.
The Barkins
On my wedding day, I was worrying about everything. In spite of all the things that could
have and did go wrong, the one thing that went right was our photographer, Darlene Ashley. She
arrived early, set up quickly, chose beautiful backdrops, and she exquisitely captured our
special day. We were worried that we would not be able to afford professional photography
services. Darlene worked with us to accommodate a budget that worked. The photographs spoke
for themselves -- absolute perfection.
Mr. & Mrs. Marquez
