Welcome Home USS Truman | Homecoming Photography | Hampton Roads VA

A few months ago we welcomed home the USS Truman from a very long deployment. There were tons of families waiting anxiously on the pier with signs and flags, smiles and even tears as the ship was docked and sailors manned the rails. I felt so honored to be able to be apart of that experience despite some mishaps that day. I was able to see so many eager families run and scream with joy as they saw their sailors walking off towards them. There is nothing more rewarding than capturing that pure raw emotion in people, it is one of my favorite parts of having my job; photography is a very powerful art form. I had once been on that pier waiting for long hours upon my sailors return, I know how heart-wrenching it can be, how nervous you are to first see them but once they walk towards you and you feel that embrace of your first hug after months and months, it seals all the missed time between you two, nothing else matters in that moment. The world around you freezes and your heart is complete, and I was able to see that for so many families and be able to capture those frozen moments of being reunited for many.
