Savannah Georgia!

This last weekend the army band that I'm in took a trip to Savannah to play for the 76th Infantry Brigade out of Indiana. The 76th left Indiana in January and has just finished their final training before being sent to Iraq. The ceremony went well, then afterwards the 38th Division Rock Band played a concert for the troops and their families. It was almost like a fair, there was all kinds of food and LOTS of activities for the kids to do. I was amazed at how many people were there! Literally THOUSANDS! It was nice seeing all the soldiers walking around with their families. Even though it outwardly seemed like a happy time, there was a definite underlying sadness. It is the last time these soldiers will see their families in a long time, and for some... ever. I decided to walk around and just take a few shots of some of these special moments, and I ended up with a lot more than I thought I would. Walking around there really made me appreciate those people. They are leaving the loved ones they look so happy with, to fight for our country. These people are the reason we have the lifestyle we do. And if anyone from the 76th reads this, THANK YOU. Your service shows what kind of people this country is really made of. You are appreciated and you will be missed. Come back safe. We'll be waiting!



































After we left Ft. Stewart we went to dinner and walked around Savannah. I also got to do a mini pregnancy shoot with Ryan & Leeann. Then we went window shopping at all kinds of cool art shops and a REALLY good candy shop. We had a blast!















If you're ever in Savannah you HAVE to go to the A.T. Hun Gallery and check it out. The art was FANTASTIC! The people were all extremely friendly. I met one of the artists Steve Shuman and his wonderful wife Gabrielle. I absolutely fell in love with one of his pieces but it was $3000. Someday I definately plan on buying some of his work though!



We also stopped by Savannah's Candy Kitchen. We got to watch them make taffy! It started out in this HUGE roll and is individually wrapped before it rolls along a belt hung from the ceiling to it's final destination... A GIANT display that holds lots and lots of taffy goodness! We also got to sample the praline. wow. That's all I can say about that. It was amazing!



Here's to Savannah '08!




p.s. I know people look at this blog... comments are welcome! Where's the love people?

Kadi & Rob

Can you say BEAUTIFUL?!?! I know Kadi through work, she and her husband Rob are both students. They're already married but we decided that they could use some new pictures! I'm sure glad because they are a STUNNING couple! Hope you like them guys!

I felt bad for Rob during this shoot, Kadi and I basically dragged him into it! Sorry Rob! He was such a trooper though, he even sat down in the snow and got his bootay wet!








When I was getting ready to take this next shot, Kadi gave me a "supermodel sexy" look. I said to Rob "Hey Rob, your wife is awesome at the sexy eye" Isn't she?


This is definately in my top 10 favorite shots i've EVER taken! I LOVE it!



This one also makes the list...




Kadi is so cute I could puke... haha!













We finished up the sitting in front of an antique shop Downtown. We found this awesome sled and figured we were due for a SUUUPER cheesy picture... here it is guys! The fun part about this picture... Kadi actually yelled when I took it! This could easily be the faces they'd be making on a sledding hill... instead of a sidewalk downtown. Haha!



And finally, my attempt at a Bobbi+Mike shot.



Hope you like them guys!!!
