Creating some templates for our upcomming Christmas Season with some cute collages and greating cards! Christmas is already starting to quickly sneak up on us! With only two more months until the holiday shopping season starts, I've really gotta get busy!

Blogging with Brandy and her "big-little" brother!

I had such a great morning with these two.

Brandy and her little brother David were such a fun pair to spend the morning with. David is in high school, how nice for him to come out to Fort Irwin to spend part of his summer with his older sister, and volunteer to work with the youth. They really have a great relationship. One I hope my children will continue to have as they get older.

Brandy and David, I hope you enjoy your small preview of your fantastic pictures. I had lots of fun with you this morning, and hope to do it again soon!

More Baby Sidney!

Baby Sidney- Take Two!

I photographed this beautiful angel about a week or two ago. I photographed her in my studio, which for a new baby, not many are very comfortable outside their own enviornment. I remember Aiden being that small and never liking to be at other peoples houses. This little one was no different. So yesterday we tried again, this time at their home. Mom could not believe the difference.

So Mom, Dad and Family, here is the rest of your preview of Sidney's portrait debut.

I absolutly LOVE photographing babies. They are so perfect. Its so fun to watch them grow and capture all their little milestones for Mom and Dad to look back at and say "Oh wow, look how little she was." and "Oh remember when she would make this face and that noise" Portraits are definitly my favorite memory trigger.

Baby Feet!

Who doesn't love'm. So tiny, pink and perfect, cuped in a parents hands, and its a recipe for 20 bazillion kisses. So Mullins Family I hope you enjoyed your mini preview of this sweet little babies portraits, I'm sure you have and are probably starved for the rest by now, so head over to the website to view the rest!

Hugs and Kisses,

Rowan

Little Jameson

From having kids, one thing I learned is absolutly certain: All little kids LOVE dressing up and playing with Mom and Dads clothes and shoes. I remember when I was younger my stepmom had this really pretty green dress that she ended up giving to me at the end of summer because I would love to dress up in it and play with the makeup she would let me use to complete my dress up look. My kids are no different. So how fun to hold mini photo sessions and let the kids dress up in Mom and Dads ACU's, boots, helmets and hats! Dress it up with a flag and there ya go!

This adorable little guy found a flag that he would not give up for the entire session. Dressed in his cute camo shorts and army green military style shirt, this guy was stylin! Though his particular session was pretty short lived, he was hot having the sit and take a picture photo session, he was a mover and a shaker. I really got some great shots of him as he did his own thing and played with his Daddys military uniform.




Thanks for a fun session Jameson!

The Mogan Kiddos!

I've photographed these cuties a couple of times, and each time they put such a big smile on my face. They have each got a fun and carefree personality.


Taylor does such a great job looking after his little brother and sister. He has such a great relationship with his little sister, and they are always so loving towards eachother. He loves to smile and play.

Kinley loves to laugh and run and play.It is so cute to watch her run across the room,with this big huge happy smile on her face and adorable squeels of delight. She very protective of her little brother Casen, and won't really let other kids go near him, just so she knows he's safe.

Then there's little Casen, like all babies his age he loves to roll around on the floor, and to just be cuddled.








Keep lovin life kiddos!!

Joint Forces; Two Photographers, One Goal, Celebrating out American Heroes!

Quite a few months ago, I got together with a photographer friend of mine and we decided; How cool would it be to create a patriotic photo event, the week after the 4th of July! We did half our sessions and dress the kids up in Mom and Dads Army tops, boots, tags, and hats! It was a lot of fun, and I can't wait to do it again.

Blogging with the Mullins!

This wonderful couple came to me two days before their sweet baby girl was born. We had a really wonderful maternity session. This couple is so full of love for eachother that it just radiates throughout the room.

I was so excited when a little over a month later, they gave me a call and asked me to do their daughters baby pictures. She is such a beautiful little baby, and myself expecting my third, it made me that much more excited to see my little one, once he'she arrives.









SO without further ado, Introducing... Baby Sidney!

With her gorgeous floral dress that Mom informed me Dad picked out! Awesume job Daddy! That little dress is just beautiful! She showed up smiling at Mommy, and we immediatly said oh yeah! However when we took her out of her carseat to start her very first photo shoot, this little one was just not having it, on this particular day. She was in the mood to do nothing but cuddle up with Mommy and hold onto that pacie!

In their family picture you can see the pure bliss in Moms face as she snuggles with her sweet little angel and Dads calm protective deminor as he looks down at his little Princess. True moments of pure unconditional love.






Mommy trying to sooth and comfort baby Sidney in hopes that she will smile for us just a little bit.

Laying next to Daddy, holding his hand as tight as she could, and making sure that NO ONE would try to steal her pacie from her again.





As we tried to lull her to sleep, so we could get just a few more individual shots of her, she was fighting it so bad. She would start to close her eyes, and then startle herself awake all over again. We decided to try again another day. I'm sure as the year goes on, Mom will look at these and feel comforted and happy in the fact that all this little one wanted at this stage was a nice long snuggle with Mommy.

Until next time!

Blogging with the Mogans!

What an amazing day! We all piled into the van; my kids included, and drove out to The Harvey House in Barstow. How awesume is this place! We got there nice and early so we had the whole place to ourselves. There was a fun place to photography behind every nook and craney. The kids had a blast hiding behind pillars, running around, and climbing on all the old trains.

We set out to get some great birthday shots of Mr. Taylor; who is getting ready to turn 5. He definitly knew just the right way to ham it up. He was so relaxed and so content.

We ended up getting some pretty great family shot too. Pretty little Kinley is such a sweet little love bug. All you have to do is smile at her ( which is hard not too smile at her ) and she returns it with this gorgeous love for life smile right back at you. Then little Casen who was basically along for the ride was so content loving and hugging on his Mommy, and sitting and relaxing with his big brother and big sister.

Alissa, I had just a great time with you guys today. I loved watching the kids play and go crazy, and I can't wait to do it all over again.

A few weeks ago an lady from the 557th company asked me if I would donate my time, to photograph some of the families during their family day before their soldiers deployed. I was truly blessed to be able to be apart of something that is so important and so close to my heart. i had some amazing outcome, and today as I was editing, I shed quite a few tears as I got to actually look closely at the moments I captured for this family. There was a little girl that stuck out in my mind as I was editing. She spent the afternoon pushing her baby brother around in his stroller and she just had the most devistated look on her face and at times just could not hold back the tears. I got the chance to take some pictures of her with her Daddy. Her face instantly lit up at the chance to sit and have special "her" time with him. One shot inparticular did my in, as she was kissing her Daddy on the cheek and he was breathing this special moment in so completely, he was truly fighting the emotions. The look on his face just speaks volumes about what our soldiers go through as they are about to deploy away from their familes, especially their children. No one truly knows what a military family goes through accept for another military family. As they get ready to deploy next week, they all will have a very special place in my heart for the next 15 months. Thank you so much for all you do, so selflessly. It doesn't matter what their sex, race, or preference is. They are in it for one reason, to protect and serve. These men and women know that their is a price that may or may not come with this career, yet they choose to defend our country anyway. For they know that freedom is not free, and we are the "Land of the Free, Because of the Brave"

Bring them home safe,

Rowan
