so my MIL is not going to be at the airport, it will be just me myself and I. I really want some pictures of me seeing him for the first time. Should I Just ask some random stranger or air port employee? I reaalllly want one of those first hug/kiss pictures that everyone seems to have. :suspect

I would ask an airport employee over a random stranger to play photographer just because of the extra security reasons.

maybe bring a friend with you along for the ride! that way a friend can help u out instead of a total stranger.

either bring a friend or one of his friends if they won't have anyone there to greet them. i also agree about asking an employee over a stranger. some strangers hang out and scam on families like that

personally whenever im in the airport i always seem to make some sort of "friend" and we talk about where we are traveling, or who we are waiting to pick up etc...so if i had one of those "friends" id ask them. otherwise i'd ask an employee if they minded taking a few pictures for me. (or in my case id ask my sister to come with because shes a photographer..that would be perfect!)

Well all of his friends are in Iraq and I dont have any friends lol. Well I do but he wont want them there. Hum, maybe I can work something out with a friend of mine. Since the hotel is right by the airport she can part there and we can take the shuttle there and back to the hotel so she doesn't have to pay for parking.

that sounds like a good idea! having a friend around much longer then that would be a little awkward :giggle

I think taking a friend along is a good idea....I'm with ya bunkie, i want those first pics too!!!

I'd ask someone randomly or have your friend come with you :) Mike and I always go on trips alone, and want pictures taken of us, so we ask someone(AKA I beg him to ask someone). And sometimes you get the nice people who see you struggling trying to take a pic of yourselves and they say "let me do that for you two lovebirds" (L)

And just so you know-I'm excited for you! (L) :hugs
