HOPE HAVEN PHOTOGRAPHY TO PROVIDE

FREE PORTRAITS FOR MILITARY FAMILIES

The PhotoImaging Manufacturers and Distributors Association (PMDA) and Hope Haven Photography has teamed with the Soldiers' Angels volunteer organization to create the PMDA Soldiers' Angels Portraits of Love Project. The goal of the nation-wide Project is to provide 10,000 U.S. soldiers around the world with portraits of their families and loved ones this holiday season, taken by the incredibly talented photographers within our industry. It is Hope Haven Photography to provide over 100 of those portraits. What better way to make our soldiers feel at home than by providing them with a beautifully photographed and printed portrait of the ones they love and miss the most?

The PMDA Soldiers' Angels Portraits of Love Project will help soldiers create their own private world - one in which when they lay down at night, in the barracks, in the tents, or wherever they are, they can gaze upon their loved ones. At a recent PMDA Person of the Year dinner, Sergeant First Class Toby Nunn spoke about the incredible motivation a simple photograph can provide to a solider away from home. We are looking to use the strength and commitment of PMDA member companies to help support this Project and provide the men and women defending our country with a piece of home during these difficult times.

PMDA has designated the months of October, November, and December to set up photo shoots and gather soldiers' families on military bases and in photographer’s studios across the country, including Hope Haven Photography located in Summerville, SC.

The PMDA Soldiers' Angels Portraits of Love Project is the imaging industry's and Hope Haven Photography’s way of giving back with gratitude to the men and women who defend our country each and every day. We wish to thank all of the participating photographers for their enthusiastic support of Portraits of Love.
