Jessica waited patiently for months for Mason to come back from his first deployment, and I was so excited to be there to capture this reunion for them! Several former Marines from Mason’s unit were present and kept Jessica occupied while waiting on the buses to arrive. Originally from New Orleans, Jessica said she felt like she was back at Mardi Gras while standing on an ice chest so Mason could see her from afar. ;) Here are some favorites from the evening.

Welcome home, Mason! And thank you to Jessica for having me capture this special moment for you! :)
