bwi military photographer | d day
There are some days so memorable, you never forget a single detail. For me, along with my children’s birthdays and my wedding, the day my husband deployed is at the top of the list. It was a warmish day in March, our daughter was just getting the hang of walking, her shirt had a purple flower on it, my best friend was there snapping pictures… the sun dipped below the horizon and it started to get cold. There was a last hug and kiss, a “see you later,” salty tears and a short drive home where both Delilah and I went straight to bed….
I know some may say they wouldn’t want a reminder of those difficult moments. When I look back at the most moving images I have, the ones from that night are hand-down the most emotional. That time is such a vivid memory and even as time passes, I cherish the photographs of that struggle along with the joyful smiles when we welcomed him home.
Last night I was there as another family said their “see you later”s. Wishing comfort and strength to the ones at home and a safe return to those headed far away…

Maryland Vetted Photographer – Jillian Mills
Jillian Mills of Heartlove Photography, LLC has been welcomed to Forcoco’s Directory of Vetted Photographer.
forcoco™ was founded to fill the need for safety background checks for photographers who are in direct contact with the general public, especially with children and young models. Founder Sandra Armenteros is a seasoned photographer who had the privilege of working in federal law enforcement for five years. It was there that she realized there were no safeguards or regulations to protect consumers from unscrupulous scammers, sexual deviants and other criminals who could easily set open a photography business. Upon further research, she encountered photographers putting their clients’ lives at risk when trying to create edgy images. Based in Chicago, Illinois, forcoco™ aims to become the place where the public connects with professional photographers.
Being vetted means Mills has passed a background check and has valid business liability insurance as well as a legitimate business in good standing with the state of Maryland. Here’s how it works for photographers…
