This afternoon I had the honor of photographing an OpLove homecoming session for the “G” family. We started our afternoon patiently waiting for the arrival of the sub along with hundreds of eager families, most of whom hadn’t seen their loved one for 6 months. Then excitement grew, as we watched the sub be directed into port by the tug boats. And finally the moment everyone was waiting for arrived, the soldiers began disembarking from the sub and everyone raced down the pier searching for their loved ones. It was amazing seeing the sheer joy, relief and excitement on all of their faces. I feel blessed to have witnessed such a wonderful occasion. Thank you “G” family, for choosing me to document your special day! Here’s a sneak peek for now. Enjoy!
