13:13 boutique wedding photography bio picture

We are Ashley and Phillip Colhouer and 13:13 is the company that we created in order to blend our creative and professional lives.

We’re a friendly, laid-back team with a style we like to call
“Boutique Wedding Photography” which is all about capturing fun and romantic moments in a fresh and exciting way. We believe the best moments are unscripted, this is what we try to anticipate and capture.

To dig a little deeper, my passion for photography originally led me to shoot in the fashion industry, while Phillip continued his studies of design. We shot our first wedding as a favor for a friend and the rest is history.

We absolutely love what we do and couldn’t be more grateful that we’ve been blessed to be able to make a living doing so.

On a more personal note…

Why 13:13 you ask? 1 Corinthians 13 was the Bible verse read at our wedding and has pretty much become the philosophy in which we strive to live our lives. We have been together for over 6 years and happily married for over 2. We live with our 5 adorable little Shih Tzu’s (Phoebe, Atari, Kabuki, Yentl, and Lotus) and just welcomed the arrival of our beautiful little girl Nylin Lilly Colhouer,
July 20th 2008...talk about a blessing!


Although based in South Florida, we’re happy to customize a travel package
for you!

~ Ashley and Phillip

They scheduled time for a sweet first-look prior to the ceremony (we’re always a fan of this!) which allowed plenty of time for fun portraiture before events of the wedding started. They also opted...

irene + fern {married!}

Even the smoothest of weddings will have tension leading up to the events… it’s only natural, whether it be nervous energy or the expected “unexpected” that happens. Oh wait, unless of course you’re Fern and Irene, then none of the previous sentence applies. The only difficult part of the day was trying to keep Irene from sticking...
