Sunset Elegance in Downtown Pensacola: Elliot & Tyisha’s Engagement Shoot

Some shoots just hit differently. Maybe it’s the golden hour glow bouncing off Pensacola’s historic brickwork. Maybe it’s that coastal breeze that wraps you up like a warm memory. But with Elliot Averhart and Tyisha Wilkins, it was all about the chemistry—two people so effortlessly in sync, every frame practically composed itself.

We kicked things off near Palafox Street, where the city’s charm always delivers. The vibe? Classic and sophisticated. Dressed head-to-toe in sleek black, Elliot and Tyisha brought the kind of energy that feels both timeless and modern. It’s a look that pops against the warm, rustic backdrop of downtown Pensacola, creating that perfect contrast photographers live for.

As we moved toward New World Landing, the city lights began to flicker on, blending urban energy with coastal romance. Shots here were all about movement—Tyisha’s laughter echoing as Elliot spun her beneath the twilight sky, their silhouettes framed against the bay’s shimmering horizon. Every moment felt raw, real, and unscripted, just the way we like it.

And then came the sunset. That magic sliver of time when the sky trades blue for amber, casting everything in a cinematic glow. Framing the couple against Pensacola Bay, we captured those final frames where emotion takes the spotlight—the quiet looks, the shared smiles, the world falling away as they focused on each other.

With their wedding locked in for September 27th, 2025, this engagement session is just the beginning of a story we’re beyond stoked to help tell.
