Trying to come up with the right words to say about a family sometimes can be such a challenge and if you know me you know I am not one for words. This family hits home for me since their daughter is Lauren’s age and I have known Allison since she was expecting her. We are online friends. Weird? Naw not really and I am happy to have I meet her. They used to live in Baltimore and then moved to Georgia for sometime and now are basically down the street from me yet I never find time for friends much these days. When she told me John was leaving for a year to Iraq my heart went out to her and I made time for a session. She wanted to get some pictures taken of him with the girls before he left. Below are my favorites from the raining indoor studio session at the studio in Old Town Alexandria. I hope they keep him close to you guys while he is gone and the girls and you close to him. I hope the year flies by and he returns safely back. I promise to make more time for you guys!
