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



“FAITH HOPE AND LOVE”
- 1Corinthians 13:13

carly + mark {married!}

January 23rd was a day of love, laughter, family, friends, good-food and most importantly a day to celebrate Carly and Mark. This couple (and family) is truly the epitome of love.
The minute we arrived Phillip got a flash-forward moment watching Carly’s dad deal with the meaning of the day. Phillip even asked if there were any notes he could take to be prepared for our daughter’s day. Allen’s (dad) reply was “there are no notes when it comes to this day”. I’m sure dealing with overwhelming happiness and a sense of loss for your little girl is a tough pill to digest… so touching though! And Carly’s mom was such a beautiful example of being a “mom”. You definitely got the sense that she was the “den”mom for all of Carly’s friends. (and now officially OUR south Florida mom!)   :)

As always, I was ecstatic when Carly told me that they decided to see each other prior to the ceremony. The sky was beautifully overcast which provided amazing light throughout the entire day!
Take a look but be warned that this is probably the longest blog post in history… Sorry!
Carly’s mom cut pieces from her wedding dress (and her grandmothers) and fastened them to her bouquet. What a sweet touch!

Check out Mark’s fancy shoes!
The First Look!
THIS is why we love when couples decide to see each other before the ceremony. Priceless.
Seriously?!? How gorgeous is she???

Also, we’re probably going to extend the deadline for our wedding photography giveaway. We’ve received several amazingly inspirational submissions but unfortunately we’re already booked on their dates.
