Sweet Tea Reflections

Christina Blackman is the Owner and Photographer behind Sweet Tea Reflections.  She was born and raised in the beautiful mountains of Washington State. Christina received her first 35mm camera as a gift from her parents when she was a teenager. 

Over 20 years ago, in high school,  Christina began studying photography.  She later became a photographer for the yearbook.  Christina learned to roll and develop film, and create prints the old fashioned way, in a dark room and by hand. 

A lot has changed in photography since the days of the darkroom.  Instead of her old Ricoh, which she still keeps for sentimental reasons,  Christina now uses a high performance Cannon Digital  SLR camera.  The darkroom has been replaced with state of the art professional software that allows Christina to be more creative and make the most of your 100% digital portraits. She works with her customers to design original works of art that reflect their uniqueness.  

Christina moved to Pensacola nearly 2o years ago and fell in love with the area. She has travelled extensively throughout the US and abroad, always with her camera by her side, always on the constant lookout for that perfect photograph.  Christina is the mother of three young children, and is a certified elementary school teacher.   Her love of kids and her artistic talent shines through in her unique Portraiture.  She has a gift as well as a passion for working with children and the art of photography.
