Morgan Taylor Photography bio picture

Enjoy

Hello, I'm Morgan Taylor. 

Photography is more then just a career for me, its a passion! i bought my first camera in october, of 2006. The Canon T2, I took that camera everywhere! It cost me loads, because it was film. The Canon 30D is my baby now! A short while ago, a young girl expressed just how enormous her passion for photography was while she trailed me at a shoot for a worship conference. She just could not wait to get here own real camera, so I thought i have two she has none, what could i do? She left the conference that night with my old Canon T2! 

Photography is more then just a passion also, its an opportunity to bless someone with a passion, to teach, and express an artistic view of what our Lord Created for us. 

Photography is a lifestyle!

Brooke Kristine Prieto

Brooke is an amazing friend, and sister in Christ. Our Father has decided to take his little girl to be forever wrapped in his embrace. Such a heart so pure, so big, and so broken to see His Glory and his embrace in the lives of everyone who she encountered, God brought her home at the perfect time according to His will. There is no doubt in my heart brooke’s life has impacted so many others. A more true example of Christ will not be easily found. We have to believe that if a woman of God so humble, and true can impact the masses that Brooke Kristine Prieto impacted in her well lived life on this infa decimal reagan in the time line of eternity that we can heed her example, and tell her story. Brooke Kristine Prieto, your legacy will live on vicariously through the ones you loved.

A few words from her husband and family.

“My love I promise I will stay strong and not be Shaken. I’ll see you again one day.”
-Always your Husband

Edmund truly presented this statement during Brooke’s celebration service. As he lifted his hand and a cry was let out to praise our King, I was touched in a way i haven’t been for a long time. Edmund your strength to perceiver through this time of loss, but true gain in the Kingdom of our father will encourage so many, if not many it has me. Just as our Father’s heart was broken when He gave His son for us, He knew He would be seated with Him again soon. Just as your heart is broken, your strength is a true example of our Father. Thank you for this my friend.

“I will miss you daily yet i rejoice in knowing that we will meet again in the Great Kingdom of our Savior. I love you!”
-Aubrey

“We will miss you deeply but look forward with anticipation to our reuniting where we will stand together casting our crowns at Jesus’ feet, worshiping and glorifying Him as we know you are doing right now.”
-Mom and Dad

Thank you for your example that taught and showed me how to live my life glorifying our Lord. I love you Nooker!
-Hannah

I will sincerely miss her precious smiles and her sweet loving touch, but I am looking forward with anticipation to the day we will be rejoicing together with our King Jesus. I Love You Nooker.
-Shannon

“With the house decorated in silvers and golds with dashes of green sprigs and red glitz, and Christmas music making it’s first appearance I’m filled with excitement! There’s so much Joy that fills people’s hearts, homes and lives at this time of year. People give more, they smile more, and they uplift one another more. It’s so contagious! There seems to be an innate sense of love all around and it caught my attention that this love, this expression of joy seems to be greater at this time of year over all the rest. Could it be we’re all in anticipation of the gift giving? Maybe it’s coming together with family and friends that brings unity, which expresses itself joyfully. Through all my ideas of what could cause a greater Joy at one time of year more than any other time I rested on a single truth, The love of our Father. It was His unending love for all of mankind which brought us a precious darling to be our Savior. I believe it’s the world coming together uniformly, giving attention to the single, most important factor of life… Our Savior was born! Whether it’s intentional or by happenstance of celebrating “The Holidays,” people, young and old are lifting praises to Almighty God for the hope found in our Savior Jesus. What could possibly bring more JOY than God’s people acknowledging His gift to us with Thanksgiving and doing it in unison. Can you just imagine what life will be like year ’round when we’re praising Jesus as our Savior and giving Thanks to our loving God for sending such a priceless gift in one voice… “that every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is King” (Romans 14:11).

So as we set-off with Thanksgiving and roll right into Christmas, enjoy your family, love those in passing, and praise the One, mindfully, of whom your Joy is given. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!”

-Brooke Kristine Prieto

Today Is some what of a cloudy day. As I was writing the words of Brooke’s loved ones, Listening to Bigger, by Brandon Bee. This song sings, “Your love for me is bigger, Your love for me is forever. Oh, inside of me you Jesus sees, a love that will never end.” A soft tear rolled down my cheek, and the sun stretched its finger of light through the clouds and upon my back, slowly warming I realized that when we loose someone close to our hearts our King became more real then ever before. Losing someone forever, its too hard to bare… Forever is only for our King, we don’t loose any one forever. We will be reunited once again. This loss, is a greater gain both to Gods kingdom, and to my understanding of why we loose the ones we are close to. To loose a loved one is to continue there legacy, until we are reunited with them and our Father for what truly is forever. What a God we serve. Jesus I love you, Thank you for your life. Brooke, you will be missed greatly, but you will be remembered even more. Thank you for your love friend.
-Your friend, and brother in christ, Morgan Taylor

January 12, 2010 - 6:13 pm Dionne C - This is a lovely tribute, Morgan. Brian and my hearts just broke for Edmund when we heard the news, but at the same time we were excited that Brooke is with Jesus right now.

Cutting Corners

The idea was inspired by a group of revolutionaries that look apathy in the face. 
And sock it…in the face. We see a broken world with broken people. 
After doing everything we can to “help” these people…
we realize that it is us who are the most broken. 
Yet, we live in the hope that God will use each of us in ways beyond measure.
Cutting Corners is a revolutionary blanket drive that allows 
you to tell your story through art, poetry, and expression. 
A blanket that will warm a cold soul.
Combining a ministry for the homeless and the non-profit Invisible Children,
we want to allow the community a way to give back
in a more personal level. 
Instead of donating money or writing a check,
you can come with a blanket in hand, ready to make it your own.
Invisible Children is a non-profit organization that started when
three college students took a trip to Africa. What they saw devastated them.
Joseph Kony, a rebel leader in northern Uganda,
has been abducting children and forcing them to fight in
the LRA (Lord’s Resistance Army).
After twenty three years of war, the land has been devasted 
with very little sign of progress.
Invisible Children aims to rebuild schools in northern Uganda
while being a political voice to end the war that is
now effecting 3 nations. 
Parea community is an organization that exists to extend their love and hands to 
those who need it: the broken, the forgotten, and the poor and needy.  
Originating in Old Town Victorville, California, Parea Community has now extended their 
reach to Portland, Oregon, the homeless capital of the United States.  
Parea Community does not exist to only help and give a hand to these people,
but to also extend love and hope towards these people, and remind them that they 
are a valuable aspect of the world.
Join us. November 15th, 2009 from 2:00-5:00pm at Mojave Narrows.

 


 

These are the bracelets that we made for invisiblechildren! 

 

Black is for Sunday

 

 

Blue is for Roseline

 

 

Green is for Grace


Red is for Emmy

 

 

White is for Innocent

Buy a bracelet, help rebuild a war torn Uganda!

 

So, hers the thing. The Declaration of Independence states, that if you have the Ability, then you  have the Responsibility. 

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. 

- John Hancock 

So Ability = Responsibility 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 

 


 


 


 

This is our Declaration.

This is what we love.

This is what we do.

This is what we live for!

Together we are free!

Join our journey in The Rescue of Koseph Kony’s Child Soldiers.

Together we can end a war!

Thanks for stopping by!
