A while back, I became a volunteer photographer for Operation Love Reunited. This organization provides photography for military members and their families. We do photo sessions for families before a soldier deploys, on the day the solider leaves or, in the case of the these photos (and the happiest time of all) when the soldier returns.
I am so happy I could be there to capture these photos of the Garn family welcoming home their husband and daddy, who had been serving in Afghanistan for almost a year.
Welcome home!!!
