Tucked away on the windswept shores of Driftwood Beach near Jacksonville, Florida, Keith and Allie’s beach elopement felt like something out of a dream. The soft crash of waves, the golden evening light, and the natural beauty of the driftwood made this intimate celebration both wildly romantic and beautifully effortless.

Although I’m now based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, I was honored to have had the opportunity to document their day. There were no grand entrances or lavish ballrooms — just two people wildly in love, getting ready in the parking lot, stepping into the quiet magic of the shoreline to say yes to forever.

As a photographer, this kind of session is everything I live for. Keith and Allie looked like they’d stepped out of a magazine — effortlessly elegant, yet completely themselves. You could feel their connection in every glance, every touch, and the way they laughed with each other made it so easy to capture moments that felt real.


From barefoot walks in the sand to intimate portraits among the driftwood trees, every image from their session tells a story of love, trust, and the beauty of choosing a day that’s purely about the two of you.
