Becki+Brian || Family || Pensacola, Fl

This was an absolute blast. I am so glad that I was able to photograph these moments between my sweet friend, Becki, and her husband Brian. What I loved most about this session was their honesty. They were so natural and a lot of what is happening in these photos… was all them. When I get to photograph couples who just “get it,” it allows me to relax, do what I love to do, and enjoy being able to see into this intimate part of their lives. Their two pups were also pretty darn cute, as well, but I did think at the beginning of the session, that one of them was going to attack me. Ha Ha. Becki and Brian, thank you! For many things, for letting me get to be a part of your story today, your life and your journey. As I sit here and contemplate Veteran’s Day, I cannot help but realize the difference of what I feel on this day than the years before. As many of you know, my husband joined the military going on two years now. I feel emotional today, because of the list of those men and women who have laid down their lives for this country, and for those continuing to do so to this day. It just so happens that this couple photographed above, are BOTH a part of the military.. and I think that’s pretty dang cool. My husband is in a type of training where we don’t happen to know where we will be in the next 10 months… we have no idea where we will be relocated in the next 20 months. And I am continually counting down the days, and feeling like I can’t make it last long enough. Time is funny that way. Feeling like you don’t have enough of it, yet it has never changed. We get the same seconds, same minutes and same hours just like every, single, day we’ve ever lived. It is what we do in those seconds, those minutes and those hours that make it worth the while. Today, I say a BIG, “Thank You!” to any and all men and women who have decided to defend this country. I am still very new to this type of lifestyle, but I am grateful, and incredibly blessed by Jesus the Christ for all that I have been given and all that I have not been.. in all of these seconds, these minutes and these hours.
