A photo journal comprised of my thoughts on motherhood and other life happenings, as well as some of professional work as a photographer. Southern California is home.
There’s so much I want my boys to take away from their childhood. I guess that’s why I document it so thoroughly. Not only do I want to remember, but I don’t want them to forget. Sure there will be epic trips to Disneyland or magic-filled Christmas mornings, but the days I really want them to remember are the simple ones; the ones that included walks on gravel filled roads and picking and eating oranges from the neighbor’s tree. Tractor rides and trips to the local dairy. Cold, foggy mornings spent in bed watching a cartoon on the phone and the discovery of a spider in the corner. Time not spent, per say, but shared with family. And so, I snap away in hopes that I will remember and they won’t forget these moments in time.

Hi Ashley
You are such a talented photographer. I truly love your work. I have a 4 year old son and have followed your blog for years. Your photos inspire me and I carry your style with me in my own photographs. Your son reminds me so much of my own and I just wanted to, finally, thank you for putting your humor, 2 cents and experiences out there for others to enjoy. If you were east coast I would book a session in a heartbeat! Alex
Don’t forget those donut faces! Can’t forget about the magic in donuts…I know I haven’t forgotten 🙂 In love with your photography, always. And your adventure, nature filled days 🙂 -Misty
