she makes beauty look effortless

CEDAR AVENUE | MINNEAPOLIS

meet Ashley.

this girl is one of my { bestest } friends. she is one of those people that, it doesn't matter what she's wearing because the person she is, is simply beautiful enough. she can go numerous days without washing her hair with it still looking perfect every day. she insists daily, "what are you talking about, Mads? i look so rough!" but she literally never does.

Ashley is also the craziest ginger i know. i am consistently posting stories about Ashley on my instagram because she never gets embarrassed and is always hilarious. she is always smiling or talking in accents. it also took forever to get her to stop making dumb faces for the camera. Logan and i didn't know how to respond to this, "Ashley, the crazy model." There honestly is a story behind each photo in this post. 
{ to read some stories and see more photos, look to my facebook page }

Ashley is my friend, mentor, and sister in Christ and i love her OH so dearly. I am extremely grateful for such an amazing woman in my life.

wake up wondering

Hello everyone,
meet my friend Reagan.


Reagan.

Reagan's personal style: laid back. simple. prefers neutral colors.
she usually will wear a statement top and the rest added would be really simple, 
such as a pair of skinny's or shorts.
