We are back in office and hitting the ground runningš
A lot of emails and texts have already been responded to and we are starting the week with a wedding today!!
Hereās to the beginning of a busy spring season!
š„Chapter I of 2026 š„
We would like to introduce you to the new face of Phocus & Coābut donāt worry, we still have the same heart and the same experience, where every coupleās story is honored with intention and great care.
Youāll notice refined logos, thoughtful colors, and a refreshed website.
What hasnāt changed is how deeply we value the people in front of our cameras and the stories they trust us to tell.
The last 15 years have been nothing short of incredible.
Fifteen years of love stories, quiet moments, joyful chaos, and lifelong memories. Weāre endlessly grateful for where this journey has taken usāand even more excited to take this company to the next level.
This year, weāre seeing 2026 as a book.
Each day a chapter.
Each wedding and session another page in a story still unfolding.
The chapters theme reminds us that no moment stands aloneāit belongs to something bigger. Our role isnāt to direct the story, but to honor it as itās lived.
And thisāthis is only the beginning.
As 2026 unfolds, thereās so much more to come, and we canāt wait to turn the pages with you. šāØ

Mallori + Coleās fountain garden wedding was on the most romantic rainy day. The rain cleared just in time for their ceremony! @phocusandco captured the day from start to finish, and @flybyradio kept the dance floor packed all night. š„ #pensacolaweddings #pensacolaweddingvenue #gulfcoastweddings #floridaweddings #wherepensacolaparties

Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there!
To the moms who have been doing this for years, the brand new moms running on coffee and no sleep, the moms with babies in heaven, the women longing to become moms, the stepmoms, bonus moms, and every woman who loves with a motherās heart ā today is for you.
We hope you all feel extra special and loved today!
Two reasons why we love engagement sessionsā¦
1) we get the chance to get to know our couples and how they interact with each other. Are they more playful, do they love affection, are they more serious?
2) Our couple gets to know us and gets the chance to see how we shoot. (Weāre not the type to just stand there if you feel uncomfortable) we help guide, direct and create moments for you both to be yourself in front of the camera.
So hereās your sign to do the engagement sessions!

āWe are hiring a family friend to photograph our weddingā¦.ā
Why this makes us cringeā¦
1) your wedding day should be the day where you (and your loved ones) sit back and enjoy the day. Let them be IN the moments, not capturing them. Sometimes itās a fine line for a family member to enjoy the wedding, but also get the job done. So many times Iāve seen a wedding where the toasts are happening, but the family friend photographer is sitting at a table enjoying dinner. So speaking from experience, let them attend the wedding instead of work it.
2) Donāt have a friend of the family photograph a wedding just because they have a camera. There is SOOOOO much more to photographing a wedding than just gearā¦. Lighting, posing, professionalism, making sure the images are safe, running a wedding day, editing⦠and thatās just to name a few.
Please just do us a favor and hire a professionalšš»
Brooke and Alex⦠this one was a little extra special to us. Weāve know Brooke for years and sheās been a friend since the beginning of the Phocus years. Getting to see these moments unfold meant a lot to us. Congrats you two!šš°š
