Why I Love Working With Asher Rain Photography (And Why My Couples Do Too)
As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of vendors, and I can honestly say that working with Asher Rain Photography is always one of my favorite parts of a wedding day.
I’ve worked alongside Asher so many times now, from intimate weddings to large-scale celebrations, and every single experience has been seamless, calm, creative, and genuinely fun. As a coordinator, that matters so much. Your photographer is with you for nearly your entire wedding day, and the energy they bring can completely shape the experience.
Asher brings the kind of calm confidence that instantly puts couples at ease. He knows when to step in and guide, but he also knows when to quietly document the real moments as they naturally unfold. The result? Photos that feel emotional, cinematic, authentic, and timeless, never overly staged or forced.
His style blends editorial, documentary, and cinematic storytelling beautifully. What I personally love most is that he captures weddings in a way that feels like the day actually felt. The laughs, the tears, the chaos, the in-between moments, the little glances nobody else notices; he catches all of it.
One thing I’ve consistently noticed while working with Asher is how intentional he is. He genuinely cares about his couples and their experience, not just the final gallery. He’s constantly improving his craft, investing in his work, and pushing his creativity. In his own words, photography is more than a profession for him; “it’s truly my calling.” And honestly? You can tell.
From a planner perspective, he’s also incredibly easy to collaborate with:
Communicative and professional
Adaptable when timelines shift
Calm under pressure
Efficient during portraits
Respectful of the overall flow of the day
Team-oriented with other vendors
Those qualities are invaluable on a wedding day.
Another reason I recommend Asher so often is his versatility. Whether your wedding vibe is romantic and coastal, dark and moody, modern editorial, rustic, whimsical, or wildly unconventional, he adapts beautifully while still maintaining his signature storytelling style.
He also offers some really unique add-ons, including film photography and Super 8 videography for couples wanting that nostalgic, cinematic feel.
Most importantly, though? My couples always come back saying the same thing:
“He made us feel comfortable.”
“The photos actually feel like us.”
“We had so much fun.”
And as a planner, that’s exactly what I want for my clients.
If you’re looking for a photographer who creates art without losing the emotion, who captures genuine moments instead of stiff poses, and who will feel like a calming presence on your wedding day, I cannot recommend Asher enough.
