Let’s end the week with a 4th of July inspired shoot that is both totally freaking adorable and super special to the mama and her little girls in the photos. Their papa is deployed for 12 long months, and as a surprise Ashley planned this shoot using family heirlooms that she knew he would love. Jessica Roberts captured these two so beautifully.

So summery and fun! And their gingham pinafores?!

The vintage flag is a family heirloom and we’re betting it’s means something extra special to a serviceman on the 4th of July.

So beautiful and sweet and thoughtful.

Happy 4th to everyone, and especially those military families with a parent overseas this summer.
