OpLove Homecoming in Knoxville

admin — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 19:42:50 +0000

Yesterday we were able to cover the big homecoming for the unit we’ve been covering through OpLove the past year. I was very happy to be a part of this, and I owe a big thanks to Julie Poole for coming out to help cover it. And Selena did a great job with the video, so THANKS Julie and Selena!!! And even more importantly, we owe a HUGE thanks to the Soldiers, we really appreciate what you have been doing for us!

Here’s the first Animoto I ever tried with video and text….oh yeah, I about forgot….“The photos and other content of this publication do not constitute or imply any endorsement or recommendation from the Department of Defense.”

We had another soldier come home today! Please remember all of these families in your prayers and if you know of any service members that are deployed (or about to deploy) overseas please have them (or their family) get in contact with us for a FREE photography session. More info is at Randy’s OpLove Page and at OpLove’s Site. Enjoy the slideshow…

And another one is home! Sadly it’s just a visit, but a lot of these guys will be home for good before long. It’s amazing how excited I get over these arrivals, as usual with the military it’s a lot of “hurry up and wait” followed by a pretty mad dash to the airport. Again, many thanks to the soldiers and let’s not forget the amazing job the wives do while the husbands are away!

This Sunday we (my brother is in town, so I put him to work!) had the chance to cover a soldiers’ homecoming from overseas. Well technically it’s just a visit, but his family sure was glad to see him! And what a wonderful family they are, we sure had a GREAT time…:) Thanks for letting us be a part of it!

OpLove Photo Session in Knoxville

admin — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 21:09:02 +0000

Last month we had another GREAT OpLove Session here in Knoxville. We always wait until the service member receives their album before we post anything online and we heard that this one was delivered today! It’s absolutely amazing to meet all of these wonderful people who are going on with their day to day life…working, raising kids, going to school…while their spouses are on the other side of the world, in harms way every single day. Here are a few images, followed by a video.

OpLove Photo Session

admin — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 00:47:21 +0000

Today we had a GREAT OpLove session at Ijams Nature Center. Great place for a photo session (many thanks to my client for thinking of it)! I hate that we can’t mention names, makes it hard to say how great everyone was…Dad is overseas and the little one is 9 months old (dad deployed when he was 3 months). He was a real trooper while we travelled all over the park We came away with some great images and I’ll be sending Dad his album in a day or two. For more information on FREE photography sessions for military families with a member deployed, about to deploy, or homecoming please visit OpLove Info.

Knoxville OpLove Session

admin — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 20:17:35 +0000

Yesterday we had a GREAT free OpLove session at Tyson Park. We can’t mention names, but the little girl had a blast and the Mom had a good time as well. Dad is already deployed and we will be sending the album directly to him. Mom has already served three tours overseas, so I really want to say Thanks to this Family for their Service! More information on Free OpLove Sessions is available here .
