OK Bloggers, I am officially the worst blogger out there. I am Soo Behind! but I do promise, however to make a more valiant effort to blog about my sessions, life, and photography tips to get you inspired to take better photos as well.  Maybe I will even share a few random things like recipes on occasion. Things could get crazy!But today we are going to start not where I left off in July, but where my heart is. And that would be with my husband who just returned from a 7 month deployment from Afghanistan. I usually do not talk about his service much on the blog, but this day seems fitting to let you see  how excited I was to see him come home. For once, I was not behind the camera… I am in front of it. My lovely friend desirae had the honor to capture our homecoming reunion. Thanks Des for being there and not missing a beat. For all you lovely photografriends, These are candid shots by someone who just has a passion to capture it for us.  These are the moments that remind me that you don’t have to always have a perfect f-stop or iso or perfectly follow the rule of thirds to have a good picture. These photos have emotion, which makes them great period.Challenge for the week… take out your camera, forget about the rules of photography, and just capture the emotion. This is the reason why we all take photos in the first place right? Enough about me, lets get to the photos!! ps. thanks to all the friends and family that came out to support us whether near or far. I know you would all be here if you could. We love you all and are so thankful that we have you to support us over these past 2 years.  Here is to the end of 2/5 Afghanistan deployment and the beginning of our next adventure!
