Outdoor Photography Adventures For Military Veterans and Families
.png)
ABOUT US
MISSION: To provide outdoor photography adventures to military veterans and their families. Participants capture moments that inspire them and share their images and unique stories through digital and print mediums.
What Journey and why is it important?
This Journey may take on different forms for different Veterans but ultimately is the Journey to finding the way back to "self.” Examples include;
-
Processing the experience of War by reconciling who you were as a person before you left with who you are as a returning veteran
-
Processing the transition from Service Member back to Civilian
-
Processing the loss or injury of a team member while you returned home
Service members often feel isolated while going through these transitions. It can be extremely difficult to discuss these moments and the effects they have had with friends, family and loved ones.
The beauty of photography is that no words are required.
