Nikki & Al


We met back in 2004 while Al was stationed at Fort Bragg. In November 2004 Al was deployed to Iraq and returned in November of the following year. Unfortunately, just before returning home his father was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. In the following months we saw little of each other, as he was back and forth between Oregon and North Carolina spending time with his father. Near the end of 2006 we left everything behind in Pinehurst and moved to Oregon to spend time with his father. One year (and four days) after arriving in Oregon we returned to Pinehurst to try and rebuild what we had left.
We have great friends and family that have helped us along the way, they supported the move across the country...then back again, and have helped us get on our feet when times were tough. The wedding will be the first time our families meet so we would like to make it very special for everyone. We would love for Brooke to be our wedding photographer, she is very talented and we wouldn't be able to afford the cost of a photographer like her without this prize.
