Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, CA | VMFA 225 Fly-in Homecoming | Smith Family

In honor of My husband and I going full-time photographers together starting in January, here is an epic homecoming we both shot together!

Here is what I put in the original blog post from 2019:

Clara contacted me in 2018 in search of a Military Homecoming photographer and I am SO glad she did! It was a beautiful day waiting for her husband to arrive at MCAS Miramar. He was coming home with VMFA 225; VMFA stands for Fixed-Wing Marine Fighter Attack so you can imagine there all pretty important people.

One of my favorite things about their homecoming is the special bond between Clara and a soon-to-be Military Spouse! I got to watch their friendship and excitement together.

As I said on my Facebook page: 

"I got to see the bond between friends made in the military. 

These two women are at different stages of their life but united in supporting their loved ones. 

Overall, I loved photographing my client's family, and seeing such raw emotion; but I equally loved watching these two friends interact through the anticipation of their Marines coming home. 

Do yourself a favor, hire a photographer! "

If you are in San Diego and your loved one is about to leave, has already left, will be coming home soon BOOK A PHOTOGRAPHER! If not me, then someone, please! You will not regret it at all.

To inquire about any ships, fly-ins, or even at The San Diego International Airport, contact me!


I hope you enjoyed a couple of the 300+ images from the day!

I got to witness something very special this past Monday. I got to see the bond between friends made in the military....
