Living here near aa Air Force military base we see a lot of families come and go. It’s also where a lot of families are stationed and the service members are often deployed from here. We’ve been able to take pictures of deployment days and they’re always sad to see the families split. This was a great change to be able to capture the other end of it, homecoming. Shenna got in touch with us and gave us a window for when her husband would be coming back home to them. As it is with all soldiers returning; the dates and times are variables and change frequently. As we got closer to the date we kept in touch until the final day and time was decided. He was coming home early in the morning as the sun was beginning to rise.

I got to the Ramstein terminal before her and was looking around to see what I could see. She had a little one to get ready and it took her a little bit for her to get to the terminal. The order of the photos we captured on display here are actually pretty much in reverse. He had already arrived and was waiting so the first photos are actually him at the car. So we decided to get the photos anyway and stage it like we were waiting and that’s the order shown on the gallery. We went up to the glass looking into the terminal and she did some shots with her little guy first. I got shots of him looking into the terminal looking for his dad.


KAISERSLAUTERN FAMILY PICTURES

She had also brought along a sign we did some photos with for this Ramstein homecoming photography session. Then we did some with dad throwing his little guy into the air. He wasn’t really feeling it so not much was making him happy or keeping his attention. It was also early and cold so I couldn’t really blame him at all. Next we got some photos of the three of them together, with and without the sign she had made. Once we were happy with those photos we called it a wrap, I didn’t want to keep him longer than needed after a long flight home.

If you’re in the Ramstein area and have a loved one coming home from deployment we’d love to capture your reunion. Anywhere we’re located if there’s a military base nearby we’d love to be invited in to this special moment where families are reunited. Shoot us a message and let us know the details and we can stay in touch until a certain time and date is known. If your significant other is being deployed we’d also love to be considered for your farewell photos as well. We’ve also been present for homecoming ceremonies for a whole unit as well so we’re open to capturing multiple families.
