The minute she opened the door to her hotel room, Rebecca’s vibrance and vitality hit me.

When you first meet Rebecca, you immediately notice her gorgeous hazel eyes. Then you immediately notice, after talking to her for 10 seconds or less, that she is bursting with love. Love for her life. Love for her son. Love for her amazing fiancé . Love for me, even though we had just met. Rebecca is someone that inspires you to live – and love – a little more fiercely than you did before you met her.

She found me and booked her session all the way from Afghanistan, while she was serving her country and risking her life to protect mine. As we talked, she told me about some of her experiences, and her eyes turned green during some of the sad parts, then lit up to a sparkling deep gold the minute we started talking of her son and fiancé.  She is a woman who is extremely generous, and in love with the possibilities the future holds.

Rebecca, I can’t think you enough for allowing me to be a part of your welcome home. I only hope these photos do a small justice to your beauty and the friendship we began that day. I’m looking forward to shooting your amazing wedding in Puerto Rico in the summer!

XOXO,

Stephanie

What a beautiful smile!

We loved that green chair!

We HAD to do a shot of her in her military jacket! So HOT!

As you can tell, we had so much fun!

Work it girl!

RAWR, Rebecca. RAWR.
