today, i received a call from a mother, who had recently lost her son in afghanistan. she was calling me, because we met in february, before he left, for a photo shoot with his wife & new son. these are the last photographs he had made. we both cried, & i realized even more how important photographs truly are in that instance. i always knew, but hearing a mother's relief that those last memories exist made everything i do worthwhile.
Thank you to all the service men & women for doing what you do every single day. Please come home soon.
In Memory of
1st Lt. Jonathan "JP" Patrick Walsh
