Thank you Sergeant Aisner
A few weeks ago, Mrs. Aisner contacted me to take their family’s portrait. She knew that her son would be home from Afghanistan for a few days and wanted to get their pictures made together while he was in Midland.
Sergeant Aisner is serving a 15 month tour in Afghanistan. He already served a tour in Iraq where he was injured in an IED blast. He definitely has an angel or two sitting on his shoulder. If you see the humvee he was driving, you can’t conceive how he wasn’t killed. His left leg and right hand are the only locations that still show the scars and he doesn’t have complete sensation in them.
As you can imagine, Sgt Aisner’s family is very thankful and proud of him.
Amy’s senior portraits
Amy and I met up last week to take her senior portraits. Amy’s mom and boyfriend joined us for the session. Of course I made her boyfriend jump in on a couple of the pictures (see last image). I love it when seniors bring a friend to their session–I love capturing genuine laughter and it is easy to do when friends are around.
Is it just me or does Amy look a lot like Christina Applegate?
Here is one of the pictures of Amy & her boyfriend . . . aren’t they so cute together?
Stephanie and Travis: We will
Last week Stephanie and Travis drove in from Andrews to join me in for their engagement session in Odessa. Stephanie wanted a fun, modern engagement shoot with bright & colorful images. We spent the evening running around Odessa and stopping at several locations that I had pre-selected as well as some that we discovered that night.
We did not realize it when we were taking the shot, but the graffiti in the background says “TSB” which is what the couple’s initials will be.
Travis and Stephanie met at college in Hobbs, NM. They will marry in May of 2009 at The Shack in the Back in Odessa, TX.
