Operation: Love ReUnited bio picture
  • Everyone needs that shoulder sometimes… use ours.

    **Please understand, Operation: Love ReUnited sessions are for deploying, depolyed and returning military and their families. Many of our photographers offer seperate pricing for military members if you are interested in family portraits. Thank you!**


    If you have ever been through a military deployment, there are no words to explain how hard it is to send the father or mother of your children off to some foreign, dangerous land, leaving you all behind…. Alone. It’s indescribable to watch their faces light up as their mother or father comes up the stairs of the airport after months, possibly a year or more, of not hugging each other. Emotions fly through the main lobby, it’s so very good to have them home. Your base’s Family Support Squadron will help you with your deployment. But the last thing on your mind when your wife or husband arrives home after a 4 to 18 month tour, is capturing all this love– on film. Most people are so overwhelmed with emotions they forget to simply point and shoot the camera they are grasping of their child’s first hug, or that single tear of relief from a mother being able to hold her twenty year old son again. With the help of Operation: Love ReUnited and local photographers near your base, you can.

Update

Hi Everyone, we’re having some database problems with our OpLove Finder.  We are working thru them as quickly as possible.  We thank you for your patience!

If anyone knows of a good database input/search output software please let us know.  I think we might need to start looking that direction.

Albums Shipped

Hi Ft. Bliss Families,

The first round of albums have been shipped not this last Friday but the Friday before that. I was instructed to hold onto all the MP families albums. Some families were instructed to be sent down to Ft. Bliss, and those whose units were not identified.

So shortly you should be getting emails from your spouses stating they have received their albums.

Thanks for your overwhelming patience in this awesomely large project.

Operation: Love ReUnited ~ Simply Bliss

For the past few months I have been coordinating a massive project (with LOTS and LOTS of help!!) with my foundation, Operation: Love ReUnited.  In April we photographed over 500 families in 2 days with the help of local photographer volunteers and a few of us who were lucky enough to travel down to help.
H&H Color Lab kindly donated over 6,000 prints to send overseas to our fine troops of them and/or their families for our traditional album moral booster!
Neil Enterprises supplied our albums with a generous discount.  Thank you so much Dave and Micheal for making the albums and prints a possibility!

My kids, Amy & Paul, Andrea, Lana, Amy and I managed to stuff albums for a good 4-5 hours until we ran out of them, waiting for another order to arrive.  Thank you guys!

After all the albums were arranged, came the excrutiating task of sorting, which the pictures are below.  My dining room, half walls, and the pool table is covered in boxes and piles of albums going to different units and companies.

The biggest thank you must go to our military men and women.  Without you all, we- AMERICA would not be!  We love you all so much, be safe, come home!  Expect your albums with in the next month or so, consider shipping times.  They are one their way ASAP!  PS- this is a tournament size table from the 1950s.  BIG TABLE… LOTS OF ALBUMS AND BOXES!
