Our goal at Arlington Media is to honor the memory of your loved one and tell a story of their service through our images. Some of this occurs through the capture of family and friends during the service, some occurs through the military display and bestowing of honors, and some of the story is captured through little details such as the roses reflected on the casket after everyone has left, or a lone bird that flys overhead while the caisson arrives at its final resting place. This moment was one of those. Five roses, laid with love. In memory.
