Behind every strong soldier, there is an even stronger woman who stands by him, supports him, waits for him, and loves him with all her heart.

It is always an honor to photograph these military sessions.

To see these tiny babies sleeping soundly in their father or mother's uniform, the same uniform they wore to defend our freedom we have today.

This sweet girl, Jane, was photographed in her father's Marine dress uniform. Her older brother, William, when he was just a newborn, was photographed in his father's camis. 

Thank you for your service.









And Jane's older brother I photographed as a newborn two years ago,

Levi | Charleston Newborn Military Photographer

Tuesday, May 24, 2016


For part of Levi's newborn session we did a military set. Levi's father is in the Army and including part of his daddy's uniform was an honor. He slept very soundly all snuggled up in his daddy's Army uniform. 
I love being a newborn photographer. I also love photographing military sessions such as these for fellow military families. 


All the sweet details of a newborn baby boy wrapped in his father's Army uniform. From his wrinkly baby feet, his pouty lips, the milk bumps on his nose and his tiny fingers.....newborns change so quickly in just a few short weeks.

Thank you to Levi's father for your service.

Hearts Apart, The Morris Family

Monday, December 23, 2013











I photographed my first Hearts Apart session a few weekends ago.

It was a bitterly cold day and we were running out of sunlight, but we made the best of it.

I was happy to know that the very first session I photographed for Hearts Apart, would be for a friend and his beautiful family.



























I am honored to be part of such a wonderful organization.

If you know someone in the military, please tell them about Hearts Apart. Through this wonderful organization volunteer photographers provide military families that are facing a deployment (or are going through a deployment) with a session at no cost to the family.

Photographs can be a comfort and encouragement during long deployments.

If you are a photographer, I encourage you to join and be a part of Hearts Apart.  What better way to give back, then to give something to a military family that will mean more than you will ever know.




A beautiful family.
