Ten Years Since the Seed, Five Years of Work, and a Moment That’s Finally Here
Faces of Love is more than a creative project. More than a video.
It’s a turning point in a journey that began ten years ago… and in some ways, a lifetime before that.
And now, May 2, 2025 marks a moment we’ve long imagined—with the release of the very first Faces of Love video.
Look Closer. Feel Deeper.
This video is a glimpse of something we rarely take the time to see—
the quiet presence of Love in every face.
You won’t find fast cuts or flashy edits here.
Just real people, real faces, and moments that speak to something deeper.
Let the music carry you. Let the images open your heart.
You may walk away seeing the world—and yourself—a little differently.

Let Love show you what’s underneath the surface.
The First Spark – 2015
Ten years ago, Marci and I were doing something completely ordinary: watching old photos scroll by while listening to music. But something unexpected happened.
As the faces of family, friends, and strangers appeared on TV screen—set to music that moved us—something opened in us both. We felt the beauty of all those people in a way that bypassed thought. It touched the heart.
We agreed, “Wow… you can really see the Love in every face.”

It felt true. That quiet, heart-opening moment became the seed—the very beginning of what would eventually become Faces of Love.
In Retrospect, It Was Always Leading Here
Even before that night, I can see now how the pieces were quietly falling into place.
From a young age, I was drawn to photography and music—poring over photo magazines and collecting classic vinyl from the ’60s and ’70s.
Later, in early adulthood, I developed a deep comfort with technology—not for creative expression (it wasn’t quite capable of that yet), but for its practical power. That early affinity later became essential to building the digital and creative foundation for Love in Every Face.
But the deeper preparation began in the early 1990s, when my life, quite honestly, fell apart.
That breaking open forced a reexamination of what truly mattered.
It didn’t happen all at once—but slowly, over time, I came to recognize the importance—and even the necessity—of making Love a priority.
Even when it’s dismissed. Even when it’s overlooked.
Especially then.
The Work Began in 2020
In May 2020, after stepping aside from my day job, I began working on Love in Every Face full-time.
What followed were thousands of quiet hours—writing, designing, editing, imagining, revising.
Marci has been the rock of support and encouragement every step of the way.
Through doubt, frustration, setbacks, bursts of clarity, and long stretches of waiting—she has been unwavering.
Later this year, she’ll step even more fully into this work when she retires.
It’s hard to express how much that means, as we begin working together—finally—as the team we were always meant to be on Love in Every Face.
What followed were thousands of quiet hours—writing, designing, editing, imagining, revising.
Why Now?
As the world spins faster—and many people feel more uncertain, more divided, and more concerned—this moment has arrived.
In a time when so much feels out of control, Faces of Love arrives as a quieter, more grounded, and heart-opening alternative to the noise that surrounds us:
A pause.
A remembering.
A chance to see things differently.
It’s about recognizing the “more that is there”—beyond the faces and the labels we so often assign to one another.
Because what if Love really is closer than we think?
What if it’s already here—waiting to be seen?
Why This Launch Matters
Faces of Love isn’t just a presentation—it’s the first invitation for others to take part.
Unlike online content that asks us to watch or listen to someone else speak or express themselves, this project is different.
It invites you to become part of something.
This is the beginning of a grassroots movement—one that doesn’t argue, debate, or protest, but quietly reveals the Love that already exists in the people around us.
We’ve called this growing circle Love’s Chorus—and Faces of Love is the first step in its formation.
Whether you contribute a photo, share the video, or simply take a moment to reflect… you are helping reveal something beautiful.
Something that sees through appearances to what unites us all—Love.
Faces of Love isn’t just a presentation—it’s the first invitation for others to take part.
What Is Faces of Love?
Faces of Love is the first major initiative of Love in Every Face.
It’s a heartfelt invitation to share real photos of real people—friends, family, strangers, and animals—and recognize the Love that shines through them.
This first video was built from stock imagery.
But the next ones? They’ll be shaped by what you share—your moments, your reflections of Love.
Photos and stories from our community will be woven together into something beautiful.
Because Love isn’t just something we feel.
It’s something we recognize.
From Us to You
This project may have started with Marci and me—but it doesn’t belong to us. And it doesn’t end with us.
We’re building this together. And now, we’re inviting you into it.
Whether you’ve followed the journey for years or just arrived today… welcome.
You’re already part of the story.
Let’s reveal Love—one face at a time.
With Love,
Larry and Marci Kirby | Co-founders
