the thing about photography is...
that it affords me opportunities I would not otherwise have...
to be a part of something special...
say, to witness a marriage I might not otherwise see
or
to hold a baby I might not otherwise meet
to help cherish a time that is fleeting...
like a two-year old laugh
or tiny newborn toes
or, as in this case...
a dad's last few days before he deploys for 400 days...starting tomorrow...
I was certainly honored to get a call from these friends I had not seen in quite a while...at such a special time...
Godspeed Joe and safe return to your family!
