Is it just me or is this the most BEAUTIFUL family ever??? Look at these stunning girls, with their flowing hair and striking eyes!! I could have photographed them ALL DAY!! On a serious note, The Rowland’s are such genuinely wonderful people! If you recall, I mentioned that when I had the big stairway falling incident a while back, I was actually headed out the door to a photo shoot…. well, it was to meet the Rowland’s and my poor husband had to call them in his state of panic and tell them that I wouldn’t be making it! They were SOO kind and understanding…. and couldn’t have been ANY nicer about the entire thing! I felt SOO awful…I hadn’t EVER missed a shoot in my life and so this just made me feel soo awful knowing that they had driven in from out of town for the shoot and were waiting on me, at the Canal…and then I couldn’t make it!! Mandy, the gorgeous Mom of the group, is a photographer as well! So, to make matters worse, I felt soo awful and then I look like a really awful photographer to this other photographer! PHEW, it was a mess. Well, our “rescheduled” shoot went smooth as could be and was an absolute BLAST!! The day was perfect, we had a great time together and there was NO falling involved! ;) I did have a little pressure, as I always do when photographing another photographer…but it was great and truly an HONOR that she selected me to capture this GORGEOUS family of hers!! They were even KIND ENOUGH to surprise me with a gift at the end of our shoot!!! I got a WONDERFUL bottle of WINE!! ;) Rowland family…you are TERRIFIC and I thank you for the many forms of kindness that you have showed to me!!
