Welcome Home




After serving far from home for the last several years, Jason, a US Marine, and his family are finally home for a visit. Though they're just passing through for a quick trip on their way to their next assignment in New Jersey, Jason's dad and family decided to arrange for a portrait session to mark the special homecoming.

I was thrilled to spend an afternoon with Jason, Kazue and their three photogenic children as well as a lot of Jason's extended family. All were really glad to have the gang back, so we were sure to get a lot of different portrait combinations.

Though this visit, I'm sure will be too short for Jason, there's no doubt that the road to New Jersey will be well traveled in the next few years, until he and his gang are off again to who-knows-where (they're hoping Japan). But for now, Gorham family, thanks so much for your service, and welcome home.

Denise,
Thank-you for taking the time to capture our families homecoming. It has been a long five years without Jason and the family to share in the everyday joys. We are proud and thank-ful that he is willing to serve our country. You did such a beautiful job capturing the group and we are so thrilled with our photos. You are terrific
