Christy and Kyle {Engaged}

http://simplybeauty-ashleyreed.blogspot.com/2015/08/christy-and-kyle-engaged.html Wow! It's been so long since I've blogged. I've been taking a much needed break to spend time with my family and my new baby! Who is now almost eight months old. Not only that but I also moved across the country and then some...again! We are now currently living it up in Hawaii! 

During the move we were able to stop off to see family in California. I was asked to take my cousins engagement photos. I gladly accepted we've been waiting for this couple to tie the knot for so long. We are all so excited! This was actually the first time they've had their pictures taken. I was so happy to be their first photographer ever. It was such a fun casual time we all were just goofy and laughed the whole time. They are such a fun, outgoing, and laid back couple. Congrats Christy and Kyle!! Here are just a few favorites.

 The second installment in my {Beauty Series} 

This has been such an awesome personal project to do. 

I love the idea of photographing true beauty. True beauty is found on the inside.

Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together

{Maternity Photography} Bublitz Family

Celebrating baby Bublitz #2!

It's so nice to be able to see families return to me to capture more exciting moments in their life. 

I recently did the Bublitz Family Photos and now I get to do their maternity as well. I get to see little William get a little older and more and more comfortable with me. He was cracking us up the whole time. Pretending like he didn't want his picture taken then running back into the shot. It definitely is one of the main perks of being a photographer! Here are a few of my favorite from our session.
