John's 90th Birthday Bash: NAS, Pensacola

A great celebration for a man who has lived a great life with a huge loving family that wanted to use his birthday as a great time to get all of his family from all over the United States. One family came all the way from Alaska! The celebration was held at the Naval Aviation museum, a fitting location because of John's service in the Navy. Even at 90 he was still strong and alert. The slide show that one of his sons made for him brought me to tears even though I had just met him. Perhaps I will hire him to do my slideshows!

Seaside Wedding: Heather and Todd

This beautiful beach ceremony in Seaside, Florida (outside of Destin) was the smallest wedding I have ever shot -only 4 people counting the bride and groom! This could have been seen as a touch challenge from a photography stand point but I like challenges! I moved around during the ceremony to get a wide variety of shots and the bride and groom invited only their two best friends that had introduced them to each other. All in all it was a very intimate wedding on the beach. I think their only regret was not getting a smaller wedding cake. It was way too much for just four people! :)

Pensacola Wedding: Amanda and Jamie 8/13/05

The day started out with an elegant brunch with Amanda and the bridesmaids. The wedding was beautiful and there was a great turn out despite the bad weather. Afterwards the weather cleared and beautiful light illuminated Apple Annie's at Seville Quarter where the reception took place. Jamie's son - who was probably one of the cutest ringbearers I have ever seen - was completely loving the camera and all the adoring bridesmaids. This crowd had a lot of people who were not afraid to have a good time.

Pensacola Bridal Show

The show at Cordova Mall went well despite the possible confusion that may have come about since the orginal date was postponed because of hurrican Dennis. The objective at our Booth was to show the wedding photographs presented as works of art. Photojournalist wedding photos will never go out of style in my opinion and framing them properly insures this. Many of the pieces were customed framed by Annette at A Means of Expression. She does fantastic work and really gives us personal service and creative ideas when it comes to framing artwork. We had a portrait that was printed 36" x 36" on canvas and the frame she selected was gorgeous. There were many brides at the show and I was happy to see that Pensacola won't let the hurricanes stop us!
