Beautiful Wine Country Family Photo Session in Temecula

Family Sessions September 23, 2020

I recently had the opportunity to do a family photo session in Temecula for the Kempton family.  They  had planned a family reunion at an AirBnb in Wine Country of Temecula but their relatives all canceled because of Covid 19!  They were disappointed that no-one else came but on the other hand they had the whole place to themselves.  

I asked them how they found me and they said that they did a Google search for Temecula Family Photographer.  I’m so glad that my website popped up for them!  They liked the vibe of my photography so we made the session date official.  

It was a really fun session!  We played games and played with the kids.  The kids were shy but we got lots of smiles.  Two times during the photo session the sprinklers turned on!  they didn’t get too wet.

This family photo session was amazing because the small vineyard we a great backdrop as well as the other landscaping.  The view beyond the property to the rest of wine country was wonderful and the sunset was just right!  This is why I love being a Temecula Family Photographer!

The Elliot’s Family Session Was a Dream

Family Sessions July 25, 2020

The session with the Elliot family was a dream!  They played and laughed and didn’t stress at all.  I just recently did my own family session so I know how stressful sessions can be but when families try to put all of that behind them and live in the moment, things really go well and I’m able to capture a lot of great moments.

As a photographer in Temecula I love venturing over to the beach to do some family sessions!  It’s a real treat!

Family photo session in southern California by Sharisse Rowan Photography.

Josie is the mom of this family and she works with my husband.  She told him that at their last family session with another photographer she told them that their kids were to hard to photograph and so she didn’t get anything of them individually.  Josie appreciated that I ran after the kids and still got some individuals of them.  I didn’t take no for an answer in a very loving way of course!

It’s not always easy to get kids pose and smile when they are a toddler or preschooler but I have 4 kids so I know how little kids are and I give it everything I’ve got at these photo sessions.  I know what moms go through just to arrive color coordinated with everyone’s hair combed.  It’s hard but so so worth it!  I hope that each family session is so fun that when they look at their prints afterwards they remember what a wonderful time they had!!

My Own Wall Gallery!!

Family Sessions June 26, 2020

Recently my family went to a beach house in Oceanside for 3 days.  I had big plans to take family pictures and create a new wall gallery for my home.  It was harder than I thought it would be to be the photographer and the mom at the same time but we managed to get some photos that I like. While I will probably hire or trade with another photographer next time so I can just be the mom during our family photo session, it was so wonderful to have these new beautiful beach images to display in my home!

What do you think of our new wall gallery?  This is the design.  I’ll be ordering it from my preferred professional printing lab next week. I can’t wait!!

Beach Family Session at Strands

Family Sessions October 2, 2019

The Gaya family is so amazing with their 5 kids and amazing connection! They are one of those families that watch and try to learn from because they are so fun, laid back and they really know how to build a strong connection with their kids. The mom, Kelly is my husbands cousin so I’ve know them for 16 years, before they had any kids. They wanted kids sooo bad!

They had to go through a lot to get their 5 kids. I could go on for ever talking about it. Needless to say, they actually have 7 kids because two have passed in from this life. Two little angels who were triplets with their one daughter Abby. Abby has been through a lot to stay here with us. She’s absolutely amazing! She’s a miracle!

I love and admire this sweet family for their amazing examples!

Campbell Family Photos at Temecula Winery

Family Sessions September 6, 2019

This session was particularly meaningful because their baby girl passed away recently and they brought a little teddy bear that represented her because when she was in the hospital they had given her this teddy bear. Their other daughter held a teddy bear and many of the pictures. It was so sweet!

You could really feel that this family loves each other. The way they interact and calmly and smiled and joked so much. It was truly a joy!

They chose to have the photos taken at a winery here in Temecula because they wanted to have surroundings that represent to Temecula such as grape vines as their back drop. They moved here this last year and it has been a lot of fun getting to know them!

The Clonts Family Session located at Long Shadow Ranch in Temecula CA

Family Sessions August 22, 2019

This is a perfect example of a full portrait session. It was one hour which gives plenty of time for images that reflect moments of playing, interacting, snuggling, laughing all without the stress of the clock ticking. These images show authentic family connection which is what I strive for in ever session!!

Intentional Parenting

Family Sessions July 11, 2018

Family photo in a field taken by Sharisse Rowan Photography

The Charles family photo session was magical!  They snuggled and laughed and had so much fun!  How do families achieve such closeness? It’s an ongoing process right?  As a mother of 4 I’ve learned a lot the past 15 years. Patience is at the top of that list!  There’s a term that I’ve grown to really appreciate, “Intentional Parenting”.  Those two words say so much!

I try to stop and listen when they interrupt me in the middle of a task, I try to give lots of hugs and kisses, I try to bite my tongue when they say or do something really irritating.  Just keep trying!  Just keep loving! That’s the key!

One of my favorite locations to shoot male senior sessions

Senior Sessions July 11, 2018

Downtown Temecula is an amazing place to do senior session! There are so many nooks and crannies to take photos! We always start at the bridge by Penny Pickles. I love the leading lines of the bridge and the strong beams on the sides of the bridge! Then we go to a narrow corridor with a red brick wall on one side and vines on the other side. The red brick wall has a rustic feel to it and the area has great lighting! Then we move on to the rustic wood staircase. It has a very masculine look to it and is just the right size. There big beams on the sides that are great for leaning agains. The journey then continues to the water fountain by city hall. The front, sides, close up and far away…anyway to slice it it looks awesome!! I love doing senior sessions in Old Town Temecula!!

Why a Wall Gallery!

LIFESTYLE July 11, 2018

Some people have too many windows to hang photos.  Some people have a mishmash of random images with random frames on random walls and are totally cool with it.  Some people would love to have something nice on their walls of their families but they don’t know where to start.  Those are the people who would love a wall gallery of canvases custom made by yours truly!  No stress, no work, only beautiful wall art full of beautiful images that show connection and love!  

I heard a story once of about a family who had a lot of pictures on their walls of the ocean, boats and lighthouses.  Guess their son grew up to be….that’s right!  A Sailor!  What we put on our walls does have an impact on our families!  So next time your kids are quarreling, look up to your family photos filled with love and remind yourself that there are lots of good times(hard to remember when kids are fighting huh?!) and your kids will grow up and will hopefully remember the good times above all else!!

At senior sessions recently I’ve had the senior’s mom jump in a few photos and it’s been a wonderful thing because most moms are the ones taking pictures of the rest of the family and it’s been really special seeing them with their senior, just the two of them posing together for some photos.💓
