From the series "Marine Wedding" by Nina Berman

Spring '07 Hot Shot Nina Berman has received much attention and many accolades (including a solo show at Jen Bekman, awards from the World Press Photo Foundation, the New York Foundation for the Arts, and the Open Society Institute documentary photography fund) for her photographs of the American political and social landscape.

Berman's work will be featured in the next month at Bumbershoot's Group Exhibition, August 29 - September 1, 2008 in Seattle, Washington, and in Visa Pour L'Image's "Homeland" Exhibition, August 30 - September 14, 2008 in Perpignan, France.

But what of her subjects? It's pretty amazing that we've been given an update about the subject of her "Marine Wedding" work, from the The Sunday Times.
