The Faces of Freedom Project Portraits
I received a call about two weeks ago from Shiela at Oakmont Senior Living Community in Orange, CA. They wanted to do something special for their veteran residents for Veterans Day, and wondered if I would be able to bring the Faces of Freedom Project to their lovely facility and photograph their veterans with the plan to print and display the finished portraits for their family celebration on 11/11/18. The timeline was tight, but with the invaluable assistance of Shiela, Chelsea, and their team, we managed to get it done, and it seems everyone was VERY happy with the outcome.
If you had your portrait done that day, feel free to download the 5×7 printable version from the gallery below. To download, click on the smaller thumbnail image to view the full size image. Then, right-click on the full size image to save to your computer.
(Please note: these portraits are for personal use of the participants only, and may not be used for marketing / advertising, or any other purpose. Please do not alter the images in any way – i.e., cropping, coloring, etc.).
The Faces of Freedom Project is a simple effort to say “Thank you for your service” to our US military veterans and active duty personnel through the medium of professional portraiture. There is never any cost to the veteran to participate. If you are a veteran (or active duty military), or know someone who is, please spread the word. I’d love to include them in this portrait project.
Thank you again for your service! If you’d like to be kept informed of upcoming Faces of Freedom Project events, please like and follow us on The Faces of Freedom Project Facebook Page
