There are often times, here in this great nation we call home, that we get to busy and forget about the men and women who have made it possible for us to live FREE, to live our dreams. We lose sight of the fact that not only are these men and women fighting on the front lines, but they've also had to leave behind their family and friends back home.
Military families are often forgotten about - we forget that the wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters are NOT in uniform - therefore, we don't easily recognize who these brave people are. While their loved ones are on the battlefield, they are back home fighting a different fight. Their struggles are most likely never known, as they maintain the strength and courage of the men and women they sent off to war.
We want to say THANK YOU to these families in the BEST way we know how - snapping their picture! Do you know a military family or are you a member of the armed forces? We want to thank you for your service to this country and for providing a safe haven where we can live FREE.
Please contact us today for more details on how you can take advantage of a free photo shoot! Email us at emily@heysistersphotography.com or give us a ring at 574.386.3258. We'd be honored to take your picture!

Life is Beautiful
It's amazing how moments change you. How 'life' makes you so much more aware of what it is you're truly here for. While time passes so quickly, it's the moments that make you realize that life is beautiful - in many more ways than one.
My husband and I had our first baby in December. The date was December 12th and the time was 4:34pm. He was a big boy - 9 pounds, 7 ounces. I shake my head sometimes still, thinking about how big he was. What a beautiful baby he was and what a beautiful boy he is growing into. He's already a month old - I can't believe how the time has passed. It's rather phenomenal the rate the hands on the clock actually move. I remember being a kid and wanting so bad to be grown up. I now am so eager for the clock to stand still - so I can relish in the moments that make up this beautiful life.
I'm so very blessed to have such a beautiful, healthy baby boy. I thank God everyday that he believed in us so much, to bless us with such a gift. And while I'm anxious to see him grow, I'm enjoying each and every moment with him at this very moment in time. While I can't stop the clock, I certainly can cherish each day, each hour, each minute with him - and for that, I'm truly thankful.
