Victoria + Sgt. Orozco: San Diego Military Homecoming

A MILITARY HOMECOMING

You can't help but love and get emotional during moments like this. There were so many people there and as soon as someone even got sight of a helicopter, the crowd started screaming and cheering - just thinking about it makes me get emotional. This was one of the most special days and moments I've photographed. Victoria had contacted me about a week prior and I was so thrilled to meet her and her kids. They were all so sweet and so fun to hang out with while we waited for her hubby's return. In the midst of all the excitement, I forgot to even ask what Sgt. Orozco looked like, so after formation was let go, I threw my camera up and was ready for Victoria to start running. I saw her face light up and I turned and saw him running! Enjoy!

Affedia: San Diego Sweet 16 Birthday

A SWEET 16 TO REMEMBER

Who remembers turning 16 and it being the best birthday ever?! I do! 16 was a big deal then 21 for some people (not for me) then 25 for some (kind of for me) then 30! I'll always remember my 16th birthday and how special it was. I'm sure Affedia will remember this day for years to come because it was spectacular!! She had a photo booth, a gorgeous cake, lots of friends including her own court and choreographed dance. Enjoy!
