Meet Ashley our Booking Coordinator, wife, and Mom of three- two boys and a girl.  Ashley has a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration.  Corporate banking was her home for 12+ years before a merger allowed her the opportunity to become a full-time Mom.  Traveling is her favorite hobby!  Cooking, grilling out and bowling are other top activities Ashley and her family enjoys.  Ashley met Desiree when she did her maternity session for her middle child. They meshed so well it was a natural transition when Ashley joined Candids and Colors Photography. Ashley the Wizard of Oz behind the computer booking sessions while Desiree works her magic on the camera.  Ashley is here to help you with inquires, finalize your session dates and you may even see her and her kids at one of your sessions to lend an extra hand. Ashley's favorite part of her job is seeing the joy on Mama’s faces when they realize the beauty pregnancy has brought them during the shoot. She looks forward to working with you and your families in the future!

Born and raised in Ewa Beach HI, she moved to the mainland to attend college after graduating from Kamehameha Schools. Graduated from Washington State University with a degree in Social Sciences, a former case manager for the Tennessee Department of Human Services, and has moved all over the US with her husband and 3 children because home is where the Army sends us.

​

Desiree has always loved freezing memories, she has always had a camera in her hand.  Pictures became even more important to her when her husband left on his first year-long deployment missing so much of their kids' baby & toddler years.

Were just a couple of moms keeping the kids alive while running a small business.
