behind every woman or man...

I make friends with many military families living in Northern Virginia.  I myself grew up with a father in the Air Force and can empathize with so much of all that being a military family encompasses.  One thing I never had to deal with was my father's deployment - those were different times. 

Last fall I took photographs of their children, but yesterday mom wanted a session with her man, because they will be spending most of the year ahead separated from one another.   I am honored she asked me to do it.

The chemistry of these two was so apparent and their joy and comfort in one another - just lovely.

The peeks...




Thank you both for your service to our country, your sacrifices are both acknowledged and appreciated.
