Deployment Gift Photo Shoot: Brittanee & Ryan

Share

Wedding photo album with heartfelt love letter

Brittanee is recently married. Her new husband, Ryan, just left for a yearlong deployment in Afghanistan. Before he left, Brittanee and MLE Photographs secretly arranged a special photo shoot for him to remember his beautiful wife while he is away. With soft spring colors and a flare of vintage, Brittanee wanted a series that captured her fun loving personality with just a touch of sultry.
Prior to his departure this past week, she was able to hide a small album inside his bag. Needless to say he was ecstatic when he discovered the album, and its contents, while unpacking a few days later. What a wonderful memento for him to carry throughout the following year; a small yet powerful reminder of the woman half a world away but close to his heart. You can see more of Brittannee’s boudoir session deployment gift in the full gallery.
