Taryn Reid Photography bio picture

Aloha!

Hi, my name is Ashley.  There's a good chance you're confused because of my name and you're on the Taryn Reid Blog.  Alright, let me break it down...TARYN is my middle name and REID is my husband's first name. When I started my business I took both our whole names and smacked it up. flipped it. and rubbed it down. and out came TARYN REID PHOTOGRAPHY!...HOLLA!

I'm appreciative and thankful, I laugh out loud a lot, I love a good comedy, I love to meet new people and I try to stay in touch with old friends (thank you Facebook).  I can talk for hours about the iphone because I think it's the best invention ever.  I'm independent but dependent if that makes any sense.  I'm big on hugs and if you're on a shoot with me don't be shocked when I hug you at end of the session.  That's just how I roll :)

I'm currently working on my website so my blog will have my most recent work.  I'll also be posting freebies if I come across them, giveaways of my own, and random things I feel worthy or sharing.

Mahalo for stopping by!

Sweet Treats |Hawaii Photographer|

Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Posted in Friends, Keiki, children, food, personal

I blogged Lunching With The Ladies a few days ago and mentioned how spoiled I was with Angie.  Angie produced a short film called “Lychee Thieves“  She asked both my husband and myself to be a part of it and it played at this year’s Hawaii International Film Festival (HIFF).  This past weekend Lychee Thieves went to Hilo to be shown at the Palace Theatre.  Angie went to Hilo and brought back Mika Mints from Big Island Candies and Strawberry Mochi from Two Ladies Kitchen.  We loooove those treats!  Angie and I had a great opportunity to work on a few movies in Hilo.  First, we did Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull and then we did The Tempest.  We love Hilo and yes, we claim it’s our hood:)  Thanks Ang for running around Hilo to bring our FAVES back so our family could devour it in mere seconds..lol

1These bad boys are so ono.

I got so excited about Mika Mints I could only think of throwing them in the air.  Throwing things in the air = happy, happy, joy, joy!

He’s all about the Strawberry Mochi and I don’t blame him one bit.

When you have mochi on your mind you don’t care if your diaper is hanging low or your shorts are just about to come off.56

The reason why the camera is always good to have around.  I think I’ll keep this one for his future girlfriend..tee-hee!
