Jaime's Commissioning Ceremony

I had the great honor of photographing a Commissioning Ceremony for my friends husband. I will tell you know, I have been married to a Navy guy for 11 years, and I love all things military. I get a sense of pride when I see these ceremonies or service men and women getting off a plane in uniform, or just knowing that we have such a great military.

When doing photos like this it is a wee bit intimidating. Even though I have been in the life for 11 years, when I am around a lot of men and women of our military and I feel small next to them. They give their lives to protect this country, to make us feel safe. I love it!

If you dont know, a commissioning ceremony is, it is basically a promotion. To commemorate a milestone. Going from enlisted to Officer. Its a great step in Jamie's career.

Congratulations to you again Jamie. I wish you and your family all the best at your next duty station in Spain. (yeah im jealous)
