two years old

It officially happened this year! My baby turned 2. The time has flown by so quickly, but we have enjoyed every moment of it too. He usually dreads the camera and refuses to look at it, but the week of his bday he was good to me and he looked in the direction of the camera. SO here are some shots of my little, or shall I say BIG HUGE two year old.

Welcome Home!!!

I had the wonderful opportunity to shoot a homecoming for one of our service men and his beautiful family. This was a very special shoot in many ways.  Obviously special because he had been away for nearly a year in Afghanistan and while he was gone his wife gave birth to a beautiful baby girl who was just 2 months old. When he left to Afghanistan his little son was just about 6mo old, now his son is walking and cooing and such an active boy. It was amazing and heartwarming to see the look of love and relief in his eyes when he saw his family. It was truly beautiful and I still get goosebumps when I think about it. I am thankful to have been a part of such a special homecoming. Thanks for all you do!

I know there are a lot of pics on this blog, but it is very picture worthy I think! Thanks for looking!!!

In ending, the plane pulling up with all our service men and woman aboard awaiting HOME!!! 

I heart Faces "A Touch of Whimsy"

This was a magical moment for my two year old when he got to hold a silk worm moth we had in our yard. There was one week where we had so many of these moths and then they vanished not tobe seen again. My son called them butterflies and looked for them everytime we went outside. This week on www.iheartfaces.com there is an awesome photo challenge going on. Check out the site and check out all the other whimsical moments captured from all the talented photographers there. As always, thanks for looking.
