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…

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!

Norris Threshing Barn/Grist Mill Wedding

admin — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 18:34:00 +0000

Yesterday we were lucky enough to photograph DJ and Tiffany’s Wedding which was held at the Threshing Barn/Grist Mill in Norris, TN. Tiffany was absolutely gorgeous and DJ was pretty striking in his Dress Blues. As soon as they contacted me about covering his wedding my first question was, “How many guys will be in uniform?” Military Weddings really make for some powerful images!
I’ve known DJ for a few years as he was one of the guys that got my son Scott interested in joining the Military (they are both MP’s), so this one had some special meaning to me. Plus it was in Norris, where I am originally from. I dearly love this community and hope to move back there soon.
Many thanks to all of the family for their hard work, you were all a pleasure to deal with! Here are some images up to the reception, I’ll have more images and a video slideshow up soon.

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 .
