Rogan Family Session

January 5, 2010

Hey there everyone, we hope you had a wonderful holiday season and a fun farewell to 2009 !

Just prior to the end of 09 Rodney and I got to do one last photo shoot and it was actually cold ?!?! (yes Florida was cold). Meet the Rogan family, no matter how far apart this family is from each other(Fl & Penn), they all came together over the holiday to spend time with one another and squeeze in fun filled family photo session with us crazy guys :)

We decided to shoot this session in what we feel compliments family photos best, urban, raw, and laid back. It offers up a way to showcase how the Rogan’s are and how much fun they have with one another and as you can tell from the images there are nothing but smiles and laughing during the entire session.

We at S&R also want to thank the Rogan family for teaching us photographers that saying “cheese” is old school and saying “Pickles” is the new school :)

Meet the Woods

December 19, 2009

Hey there everyone..well in keeping up with the Holidays we wanted to post this recent shoot we did with the Woods family (And no there are no golf clubs or crashed SUV’s involved in this story :) )

Meet Matt, Justina, Rayana, and Elizabeth. I have been friends with this gang for close to ten years now so it was a real pleasure to take theses pictures. Matt and I go way back (remember that time we chased that car…oops wrong spot for this story…) and thru the years I have been there to see him get married to Justina, become a wonderful stepfather, and expand the family by one more. While I was taking these pictures it dawned on me that I have been able to see how much fun and love this family has. We had a ton of laughs and non of which were Justina making fun of me, especially involving the time with the bike and the carpet :)

Kidding aside, Matt and Justina have two wonderful girls and it was an extreame honor to capture some fun times for them just before the holidays. Here are a few favs from the day..stay tuned because in the next few weeks we will add a part 2 of the Woods family…trust me you wont want to miss it :)

Wooten – Smith Family Session

November 14, 2009

Hey there everyone, well as you can see we are adding another awesome blog post, and adding yet another notch in our belt here at S&R. This recent photo shoot that Rodney and I did was a very special one to me because not only is it of my family but I, yes me the crazy awesome photographer was also to be the subject !!…this is uncharted territory…

My wife Casey and I managed to gather up all of our family and persuade (more like arm twisting) them to take part in a family photo session before the holidays. Once we decided to tackle such a monumental feat, I then had to ask Rodney to dig deep down in his heart and take on the most outrageous photo shoot of his career…..Shooting my family…together…in one spot…with no referees !! After a few eye rolls Rodney gladly gave in to my demands (It may have been the free dinner ?!?!) and then he presented me an issue…Who will be his second shooter if I was going to be in the shots??…That’s where you can never have too many Brian’s (or Bryan’s). Our buddy Bryan Follis, or Follis as he is know, is a very big fan of photography and has a really good eye for the like. Unlike Rodney, when I approached Bryan about the shoot he was more than willing (No mention of free dinner needed…). So we figured lets give the rookie a try and see if he can handle his call up to the majors (Go Yankees !)

So there I had it…photo session covered, date, time, and location all set. Now the only snag left….getting everyone to play nice with Rodney and Bryan!

 As you can see the family did very well posing all together but then we also decided to give everyone a little freedom to move around a bit….

All kidding aside I would like to thank both Rodney and Bryan on behalf of my entire Family, we had an amazing time shooting the family session, everyone is still talking about how much fun they had!! The images are absolutely amazing (too many to show here!) and show off what a fun and loving family we have with the Wooten’s and Smith’s (you guys would never know we have a mix of Yankees and Southerners..oh wait was I supposed to have a Y’all in there somewhere ?!?)

Until next time….(and back behind the camera)
