Daddy's Girls | Military Homecoming | Fort Bragg, NC Photographer

I don't have to remind y'all, but I'm going to anyway - I LOVE MILITARY HOMECOMINGS!

This one was ecspecially amazing because I photographed their first homecoming when older sister was not even a year old (maybe a year old ... but she was TINY)!!! Yes! I love when you guys come back to me over the years, even when the military takes you (and me) away from Fort Bragg and brings us back together! See their first homecoming HERE.

 

Please choose me when it comes to homecomings - I love them and specialize in them! <3

Finally Home | Military Homecoming | Fort Bliss, TX Photographer

Have I mentioned before that I LOVE military homecomings?! Well ... I'm going to say it again. I LOVE MILITARY HOMECOMINGS! And so happens, a huge unit has been coming home and I've been lucky enough to photograph many families being reunited. Here is one of many special memories captured.

 (when big brother throws your ball ... <3)

Don't mind us ... just waiting around for Daddy to come home!

Silly, silly boys.

And FINALLY! They're here!!

 They spotted daddy in a sea of uniforms.

Best. Day. Ever.

 

First thing big brother said Daddy was going to do when he got home? Throw him in the air! <3

Welcome home Soldier!

Sweet Reunion | Military Homecoming | Fort Bliss, TX Photographer

Momma contacted me months in advance to ensure she was able to catch (fingers crossed) the last deployment her family has to go through ever again. She explained that they've been lucky and haven't had to endure very many deployments and three of the children have never, until this moment, had to experience "dad being gone." 

The eldest daughter was very young while he was gone on another deployment. Momma is very thankful for not having to deal with many stressful single parenting deployments and she was extremely happy to have the day finally come where she could sigh a BIG sigh of relief with him back home.

Daddy's girls. I love when I photograph children being reunited with their parents because they just STARE at them in awe. It truly is the best sight to see. They've waited so long that the reunion doesn't see real. And if they take their eyes of their parent, he/she will disappear. I mean, it's magical the sparkle of awe in their eyes.

Mother-in-laws are the best too. This gramma doesn't speak much English but she was at her daughter side many days to help out in whatever way she could. I mean, the family is duo-language, but El Paso is mainly Spanish ... not German. ;) So coming to a place that isn't your native language and emerge yourself into a culture that really is TWO cultures ... American and Mexican ... She's my hero. Mommas are the best aren't they??

Home in Time | Military Homecoming | El Paso, TX Photographer

A last minute email to ask if I'd be able to photograph a homecoming in which her husband hasn't seen her growing baby belly in months ... Um, YES PLEASE! I jumped at the opportunity, especially since she and I were somewhat the same pregnancy month. ;)

These two just melted my heart. They are so sweet and in love. I cannot wait to hear how they are doing with their new baby in their new home! Their home I'm sure will be full of love and joy. And that baby will be their all.

I mean, come on! *sigh* So adorable!
