Donovan :: Newborn Session

A few weeks ago I did a newborn shoot for baby Donovan and his parents, Amy & Lorenzo. Donovan was super wide-awake the whole time, no matter how hard we tried to get him to fall asleep for a few pictures. Amy & Lorenzo's dogs were also very interested in the session, and joined in a few times :)

You can see more of the images at my Facebook page!

CLR-15 FWD Advon Deployment

This deployment is officially underway, and I have to say I'm relieved that it's started. We've only known he was leaving since December, and the knowledge of the upcoming separation still wears on you. Now, we can just look forward to homecoming :)

I took my camera to the deployment and snapped a few pictures - you can see them below.

The 22 Area parade deck at about 12:30 AM.









Waiting outside the armory at around 2 AM



My handsome husband :)





It was so chilly that night! All the little kids were bundled up.



After the weapons were checked out, bags were dropped off...the waiting starts.





Finally the buses pulled up, and it was time to say goodbyes.



Last minute instructions.



And the deployment was officially underway.


Prayers for a safe deployment, and safe travels for the main body of CLR-15 FWD as well.

I'm getting back in the swing of weekend portrait sessions since I took off almost 2 months before my husband left. Looking forward to meeting some wonderful new families and creating priceless memories.
