Brittany & Tyson | Pensacola Wedding

Brittany & I met almost 5 years ago.  We worked together at the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office and once she saw our photos, she was hooked!  She moved to south Florida several months later and I left the Sheriff’s Office not long after when I just couldn’t juggle the business and the crazy schedule of a crime scene investigator.  She waited about 15 minutes after Tyson proposed to contact us.  (okay, maybe it was longer).

I was so excited to be photographing this wedding.  Brittany’s mom is responsible for so much of the beautiful decor. You will be so impressed!  Since the ceremony was happening after dark, Brittany and Tyson decided to meet for photos before the ceremony.  It was a lot of fun and a little bit of craziness!

I love this!

The girls were looking great!

So the boys got a little jealous and made a scene!

If you know Brittany, you understand this look!

Some fun details….

Brittany and her mom did much of the decor’ themselves.  Isn’t it beautiful?

Sharon Tobin did a beautiful job on this cake.  Notice the fondant skirting at the bottom.

The classic rock band had the room groovin’ all night!

Maggie’s Bridals at NAS Museum | Pensacola Photos

You may remember Maggie from her sneak peek with Brian last week on her January 2, 2010 wedding. What I didn’t share with you yet is that Maggie and Brian are pilots. Brian is a “Coastie” (Coast Guard), but Maggie and her dad are both Navy pilots. When she mentioned doing her bridal session at the NAS Pensacola museum, we said “Um Yeah”! There is nothing finer than a beautiful bride next to a military plane. We hope you like the results as much as we did!
