Capturing Courage: A Special Tribute to Military Spouses

Aloha friends! I just wanted to do a quick post. Today, we're taking a moment to shine a well-deserved spotlight on the unsung heroes behind our nation's heroes aka military spouses. As we celebrate Military Spouses Day, it's time to honor their resilience, strength, and unwavering support. These images remind us that behind every brave service member, there's a tribe of equally brave spouses lifting them up. Its thanks to them that our heroes can continue to do what they do.

While I’m not affiliated with the military I have had the honor of photographing countless couples capturing the essence of each service member’s dedication and sacrifices. There is a lot that goes on in the life of each service member and each spouse has a unique set of challenges from relocating, long periods of separation from their loved ones during deployments, managing all the household responsibilities, and more. That’s a lot of work especially when there are small children that need your constant time and attention. Despite all that they are able to support their partners and continue to keep going. Let me say that I’m amazed at their resilience and incredible sense of community. They deserve to be recognized on this day for the sacrifices they make in service to this country.

Cheers to military spouses everywhere! 🎉
