Ashley and Connor - Fading West Collective

Hey! We're Ashley & Connor

We're the husband-and-wife team behind Fading West Collective, and yeah, we live in a bus. Like, a literal school bus that we converted into a tiny home on wheels. It's exactly as wild as it sounds.

A few years ago, we looked at each other and said, "What if we just... didn't do the normal thing?" So we quit our jobs, adopted two ridiculous dogs, built out a bus, and hit the road to photograph weddings across the entire country.

🚌 About The Bus

Her name is Ghost the Skoolie. She's got solar panels, a tiny kitchen, a bed that's surprisingly comfy, and two very spoiled dogs who think every scenic overlook is just for them.

Why We Do This

Because life's too short for boring photos. Because we believe love looks different for everyone, and that's what makes it beautiful. Because some of the best weddings we've shot have been two people, a cliff, and a promise.

We're not here to make you stand awkwardly and smile on command. We're here to hang out, crack jokes, probably become friends with your weird uncle, and capture the real stuff — the belly laughs, the happy tears, the chaotic dance floor moments.

The Important Stuff

We're proudly LGBTQ+ friendly. All love is beautiful, period. If you're planning a wedding, elopement, vow renewal, or just want to celebrate your love in some epic way, we want to be there for it.

We Come to You

Seriously — wherever your adventure takes you, we'll meet you there.

We live in our converted bus, so we're literally always on the road. Mountain elopement in Colorado? Beach ceremony in California? Your grandma's backyard in Ohio? We're there. No crazy travel fees for most US destinations because we're probably already heading your way.

Our Bucket List

Dream weddings we'd love to shoot:

  • Sunrise elopement at Glacier National Park
  • Redwood forest ceremony in Northern California
  • Desert wedding under the stars in Joshua Tree
  • Cliffside vows on the Oregon Coast
  • Autumn wedding in the Vermont mountains
  • Intimate ceremony at a lighthouse

Is your wedding on our bucket list? Let's talk. We might just give you a deal.
