A high school student had a beautiful prom photo shoot, even though her on-duty Marine boyfriend couldn't be by her side.

Skylar Fontaine, 18, of New Orleans was initially upset that her boyfriend Gage, 19, couldn't take her to prom because he is currently thousands of miles away training for his Military Occupation Specialty on the East Coast.

So, she recruited his 2-year-old baby brother to fill in for him.

Little Clay dressed in a Marine uniform identical to his big brother's and stepped in as her "date" for her prom photos.

"I thought this would be a sweet gesture to send to my boyfriend. He is a family man and very sentimental," Fontaine said. "Clay wants to be just like his big brother. I'm very close to him, he is like my own little brother."

Fontaine said she has received amazing feedback from the photos after they went viral.
