It is hard to put in words how I feel about Jess & Tom - they are the kind of people that walk into your life and make an impact, they stay in your life and they make it better.

I met Jess a year ago when she came to me wanting to do a boudoir session as a gift for her fiancé who then was deployed to Afghanistan. She wanted him to be surprised when he came home, as she herself was getting deployed and wouldn’t be home to greet him. It was something that took a lot of courage for Jess as she has never done this kind of shoot before and also she wanted to make it more than just memorable, she wanted him to be able to look at them and smile, thinking of their upcoming wedding.

Back then Jessica didn’t know if they will have time to have a big wedding, because she knew as soon as she gets back they will get orders to move somewhere else, but she told me she wanted to do a couple's shoot if at all possible.
