Shockley Family | {Tacoma Family Photographer}

This family was a delight to spend a beautiful sunny spring afternoon with! The kiddos, Madelyn and Sawyer are the cutest and their eyes are amazing…and both were very sweet and oh, so good during the entire session! I had the pleasure of first meeting this family last summer when dad, Jason, returned home from a deployment and I was able to capture his reunion with his wife, Ashli, and Madelyn, as well, as the first meeting of his new son. What a heartwarming reunion and a true blessing to see just how wonderful our military and their families are in what they do and give up…and this family is a true representation of the many amazing military families of our country!  It had been about 8 months since I’d seen them, and oh, how I loved seeing how the kids have grown, especially Sawyer…and to watch Madelyn – as a beautiful and delightful little girl, who turned three the very next day! She was a great little model and as long as we kept the bubbles close by, she was willing to do what we asked of her! Dad and Mom were so much fun, they are lighthearted and have a wonderful relationship that is filled with tenderness and lots of laughter…oh, how I enjoyed my time with the Shockley family! I will miss them as they are moving to a new base next month…I know it’s closer to their families, but I’m sad to not have the opportunity to capture some more photos of their family in the years ahead! I wish them the very best and will certainly look forward to updates from them in the future!Jason and Ashli…what a gift it has been for me to have met you two and your beautiful children! I wish you the very best with your upcoming move and your future…and thank you for your service to our country! Stay in touch!
