Supporting Local Heroes: Fire Prevention Week

Meg's grandpa, Bob Pekarski, on our wedding day.

Firemen have always held a special place in Meg's heart. Growing up, her hero was not only her grandpa, but he was a volunteer fireman too.  Her grandpa taught her many things about hard work, dedication, and being prepared.

With Fire Prevention Week coming up, we thought it would be nice to do some throwbacks to some of our favorite firemen (and women) that have given us the honor of working with our studio throughout the years.

Hannah & Dave Lacher

Hannah & Dave are with the Roulette Volunteer Fire Company and are some of the most wonderful people we know.  We've been blessed to celebrate their wedding, their pregnancy, and their precious, growing family.  Click to read all about their adorable firehall maternity shoot  and also their newborn portrait session (and see some of their favorite images).

Mr. & Mrs. Lacher with their wedding party and fabulous ride.

Tadd & Joe Ostroski

Like Meg's grandpa was, Tadd and Joe Ostroski are also volunteer firemen for the Coudersport Volunteer Fire Department.  We are so thankful for the time these brothers put into taking care of our community.  They were also awesome enough to allow us to try a new camera technique:  light painting.



Please, if you haven't, look into Fire Prevention Week and make sure you've got at least two ways out of your home.  Practice home fire drills with your little ones, and be sure to thank a firefighter!
