What an priviledge it was to photograph this family... The Samaniego's serve as one of our military families here in San Diego and while on leave from deployment, we managed to get together for this amazing session at the Hotel Del Coronado. Words can't express the love that this family shares and while making this slideshow, I couldn't hold back my tears. Over and over they came as I wrapped this session up... What an amazing sacrifice they, and all other military families, make day in and day out for our country.

Thank you so much for all you do and for allowing me into your lives' for even just a few hours. I adore the love you share and cannot wait to see what the next year brings you :)
