Welcome Home, Travis!

Capturing this homecoming was an absolute dream! Alicia contacted me last September regarding capturing this homecoming, and I knew it was going to be special when I found out that Alicia was pregnant and would be delivering the baby before Travis’ return! Plus, Alicia is from Texas and was staying with her family in Ft Worth while Travis was deployed, only a short distance from my grandmother’s house!

Little Finn was born about 2 months ago, and was so excited to meet his daddy last week! He is a total sweetheart and has the best smile!

Though the morning seemed like it would never end, soon enough, we were able to spot the LAVs coming over the hills to Camp Las Flores, and the Marines were home! Here are some favorites from the day.

Congratulations to Alicia and Finn on making it through this 8-month deployment! Welcome home, Travis, 1st LAR, and all of the Marines and Sailors aboard the USS New Orleans and all ships with the 13th MEU! Thank you for allowing me to capture these moments for you!

xoxo,
Lauren
