He serves his country with pride and because of that I am proud to know him. Nick will be going to Iraq for a year, leaving behind his beautiful wife Beka. It is a hard thing to swallow, as a wife, that a soldier wants to leave his home to go and protect the country that he loves, but Beka is a strong Army Wife who supports her soldier. My heart and prayers go out to the two of you during this year of separation.

Thank you Nick for protecting our FREEDOM!

Sargent Buster Reporting for Duty....

Buster is one of the cutest little doggies I have ever had the opportunity to photograph. He behaved perfectly and was willing to do anything for the shot....of course it did help that his mom had treats dangling in front of him!!! Thanks Buster for allowing me to give your mom and dad some nice photos of you.


Love, love, love these.....


ATTENTION! No just kidding....




Hey Dad, can I go, can I go? I promise I won't be too much trouble.....


My favorite....

A Day in the Life of an Army Wife Waiting for Her Soldier to Come Home....

As a photographer, we get called upon to do a variety of different photo shoots. This past Sunday however, I was asked by a very special person to come and photograph as she and her friends and her mom cleaned her apartment. You see, her husband Nick, is returning home for two weeks before heading out to Iraq or Afghanistan and she wanted their home to be just perfect.

So, when I got the call to come over, I was so there. And I loved the part where all I had to do was use my camera and not the mop.....

Beka you are so beautiful and Buster you wear those dog tags like no other.....


Add some Vodka and shake....


Angie, you rocked the kitchen....until (see below)....


Oh no I didn't just burn these....did I?


I love the concentration on Lisa....tongue and all.


Don't you dare look at my camera Amy....


See Nick, I helped, but then I cracked myself up....


Nothing says domesticated more than a pink iron....








Beka's support system....




Even Buster is looking for Nick....


Thank you Nick for serving and defending our country.
