HMH-466 | Marine Homecoming | MCAS Miramar | Lopez Family
Long Awaited Return for Repeat Client
I photographed Lopez’ graduation from bootcamp at MCRD San Diego 2 years ago so I felt privileged to photograph his first ever deployment homecoming with HMH-466 at MCAS Miramar.
Here’s a collage from that beautiful day.
Congratulations to the Lopez family and all of the United States' newest Marines!! Job well done. Morning Owl Fine Art Photography San Diego Military Homecoming Photographer by Morgan Liberatore

The Squadron Lopez is a part of is the Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 466 (HMH-466), the “Wolfpack,” that was commissioned on 30 November 1984. It is a United States Marine Corps helicopter squadron consisting of CH-53E Super Stallion transport helicopters. It is based out of Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, California and falls under the command of Marine Aircraft Group 16 (MAG-16) and the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (3rd MAW).
I also offered to take a few photos of this couple as I understand being a female in the military isn’t the easiest. Look how cute they are! If I have the ability to sepend an extra minute to help someone else I totally will!

Many people confuse Memorial Day and Veterans Day, but each honors a different kind of sacrifice. In this post, San Diego military funeral photographer and U.S. Navy veteran Morgan Liberatore shares the important distinction between the two holidays, explores their historical roots, and reflects on what Memorial Day truly means. With local landmarks like Fort Rosecrans and Mt. Soledad woven into the story, this post invites readers to pause, remember, and honor those who gave everything.
