A while back I decided I wanted to give back to the community with my photography. I looked into a couple different organizations, but when I came across Operation Love ReUnited – I knew this was the organization for me. As a former Marine’s wife, and having been through a deployment to Iraq & Afghanistan – It just clicks. I can relate to these families because I know exactly what they are going through. The title of the organization is Operation Love ReUnited, which suggests a reunion – which can be one of the most amazing moments in your life. However what I had the opportunity to capture for this family is so much more amazing. It is something to have through this long deployment, a sense of hope. A reminder of the love they have for each other. I will be printing these images and sending them to the dad, a keepsake for him to hold on to during the next year. I pray for strength for his wife and children, and that time flies!

I actually do not use actions – I do most RAW editing in Lightroom and then open the images in PS for individual tweaking. I curves boost as well as contrast boost. Hope this helps.
