Still not over this beautiful day! It’s it was hot and crowded and a long day. But it was such a great day!! I will never take for granted that people trust me to capture precious moments like this one!

321 days apart. A number that is still hard for me to wrap my head around! So incredibly happy that this couple and all the families from the USS Abraham Lincoln are finally back together. Back where they belong.

I wish everyone could have experienced the feeling of standing on the pier. The cheers and screams for dad and mom! The joy. The laughter. The tears. There was even someone playing bagpipes. It’s a day that will stay with me for a long time!

Welcome home USS Abraham Lincoln! We sure are glad you are back!

Can’t believe this was a week ago!! So incredibly happy that VMFA 314 is home and that this family is back together after being apart for 10 months.

What an incredible week I had photographing the USS Abraham Lincoln homecoming. Still can’t believe that I get to call this a job. I am so incredibly grateful for all my amazing clients! And so incredibly thrilled that you have you people back, that your families are whole again. Thank you for trusting me with such precious days.

👋Hi y’all! I’m Helen :) ⁠Thought I would reintroduce myself to those of y’all that don’t know me! It’s been a hot minute!

🇺🇸 I am a Navy wife! So for many of y’all I have been in your shoes.

🇬🇷 We just moved back from Crete, Greece!! Next stop is San Diego. So excited to be back!!

💙 Fun fact am an 8th generation Texan and proud of it

📸 I have been taking photos for as long as I can remember! I have always been passionate about capturing and archiving my life. If you ask my friends and family they will tell you it’s rare to find me without a camera in hand! ⁠

📹🏈 My first job was filming coaches footage and highlight footage for the TCU football team. Go frogs 🐸

⛳️🏌️I spent my summers in college working for CBS as a spotter during golf tournaments

🏆 My first Job post college was with NFL Films. Where I won an Emmy while working on Hard Knocks

📷👰 I started my first photography business when I met my husband so I could move with his schedule (the Navy’s schedule 😉) I started with weddings and families

🇺🇸I started this business after our first homecoming when I realized how hard it can be to find a photographer who knows what it’s like to be a military spouse

🫶One of my favorite parts of this job has been the fellow military spouse photographer/ friends that it has brought into my life!

✈️ and for those wondering yes I do travel and photograph events in Jacksonville Florida, Norfolk and beyond.

🇬🇷 Greece was the greatest adventure!! And I did take some photos which I will share soon. But I missed y’all and I am so thrilled to be back!!

♥️ So grateful for all of y’all!

🎉 My books are open again!! Can’t wait to photograph more homecomings and military events. And yes i do still have some availbility left for the USS lincoln strike group.

On Memorial Day we honor & remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

On momentous days such as these I find it hard to find the right words.

So I often refer to what other people have said.

I think this quote by Ronald Reagan sums up much of what I want to say on Memorial Day.

“There is a special sadness that accompanies the death of a serviceman, for we’re never quite good enough to them-not really; we can’t be, because what they gave us is beyond our powers to repay. And so, when a serviceman dies, it’s a tear in the fabric, a break in the whole, and all we can do is remember.

It is, in a way, an odd thing to honor those who died in defense of our country, in defense of us, in wars far away. The imagination plays a trick. We see these soldiers in our mind as old and wise. We see them as something like the Founding Fathers, grave and gray haired. But most of them were boys when they died, and they gave up two lives — the one they were living and the one they would have lived. When they died, they gave up their chance to be husbands and fathers and grandfathers. They gave up their chance to be revered old men. They gave up everything for our country, for us. And all we can do is remember.

There’s always someone who is remembering for us. No matter what time of year it is or what time of day, there are always people who come to this cemetery, leave a flag or a flower or a little rock on a headstone”

- Ronald Reagan
