Last week I had the pleasure of meeting Jillian a fellow Marine wife and a Model! We met in downtown New Bern and had a blast exploring and updating her headshots!

I was recently asked  take some head shots for a family friend starting her own business.

:) Kim has ventured into the world of photography and I wish her the best of luck!

Liz & Jose are all over my website and here they are again! It was time to update the photos since he just got home from deployment. They are so easy to photograph and you can truly feel the love between them. Jose grew up playing baseball so I thought it would be fun to bring that into our shoot. Enjoy :)

A couple months ago I randomly met Brandy! I thought she was the sweetest person. The way she talked about her husband(who was deployed at the time) and her children, I could just tell she loved her life and everyone in it! It was long after we met that I had the opprotunity to photograph her husbands homecoming! Brandy wanted this day captured for so many reasons but mostly because it was the day he would meet his son :) You can’t make memories better than that people!

Every time someone asks me if its hard being a military wife or if I hate it when he is gone, I just think about that feeling I get when he gets home! I’m so lucky that Troy and I haven’t had to face any big deployments yet but this summer we will. Troy is leaving beginning of July. I get asked all the time if I’m scared or sad. We’ll I’m not! I’m so proud that Troy is able to do what he loves and I will gladly wait for him while he does. I can’t wait for the feeling you get on homecoming day and to make our own special memories.

Any who! back to Brandy! I instantly felt connected to Brandy after meeting her! and soon after that her daughter  became a student at the Preschool I teach at. I absolutely adore this beautiful little girl! So of course I was soooo pleased and excited when they used me a second time to shoot their family photos! Be prepared to go gah gah over a gorgeous family :)

Without further a do ….

I threw in some of their homecoming a couple months back :) in case you missed it!

You may remember the Tiffin’s from there session this time last year! It’s hard for me to believe how much there two boys have grown! Trent was only a month old last time I took there pictures! I think that is truly the fun part of my job! Really getting to know families and forming a relationship with them! Any who, James is off to another deployment so please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers as well as all of the other men and women serving our country! As you all know I couldn’t be more proud to stand beside my Marine! Best of luck to you James and God bless you!

Thanks for stopping by :)

As most of my followers know, I am a military wife. I know, I know I don’t talk about my amazing hubby at all do I! ha ha Anyways, My husband and I are coming up on our 2 year wedding anniversary! It seriously blows my mind thinking about everything we have been through and seen and done over the past two years. We have grown so much as a couple and as individuals as well. blah blah blah I could ramble on about how wonderful he is all day long.

My husband is a Marine and that led us to be stationed at Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station back in January. I am so thankful that we are here and that I have made some wonderful friends. One in particular I had to find a special way to thank. Christina had mentioned wanting some updating photos of her for her husband,  a special gift for her to give to him. So this would be my gift to her, although I don’t anything could repay her for what she has given me. She has given me a friend that I can always count on and who is there no matter what. Christina and I have only known each other for a few months but it certainly feels like she has been a friend forever. It’s hard when you move a lot and you are in a completely new environment to find friends who you can trust and who you feel completely comfortable with. So all I can say is Thank you Christina, for making me feel like we have been friends for 20 years. I hope we will be for 50 more!
So here goes…

The absolutely gorgeous Christina.

I honestly couldn’t pick a favorite! I love them all!
