MEMORIAL DAY

This Memorial Day weekend, I am reminded of all those who are serving our country and I couldn't help remember having the privelege to photograph a sweet military homecoming. This Captain was coming home to meet his newborn son for the first time. This was one of the first sessions I did as a photographer - it was a special one.
