Jekyll Island Photographer – Historic District

June 17, 2025

As a Jekyll Island Photographer, the island will always have my heart. This senior wanted images in the historic district for her portraits. She found this beautiful dress at a boutique in St. Simons and knew it was exactly THE dress for this location. We chose late afternoon for these images for the magical lighting she was looking for and to fit her holiday schedule. I think it turned out stunning!

When everyone is finally gathered in one beautiful place, portraits become more than photographs - they become heirlooms.

This extended family session at their Lake Oconee home was the perfect way to document a rare and meaningful season: loved ones together from across the country, relaxed by the water, with two newly engaged couples to celebrate.

A timeless reminder of family, legacy and the moments worth preserving.

Poolside living, beautifully designed.

I had the pleasure of photographing a commercial shoot for Tenjam at a stunning Lake Oconee home as they introduced new pieces to their outdoor furniture lineup. With beautiful surroundings, great models and clean modern design, this session was all about capturing relaxed luxury and the way these pieces are meant to be enjoyed.

Loved bringing this brand story to life.

Love this area of the historic district of Jekyll Island. Pretty walkways, roads, buildings, trees and scenery. It is like taking a step back in time in many ways. I have been photographing my daughter in this exact location for the last few summers and it never disappoints.

There is something about the ocean in black and white that feels both quiet and dramatic.

In this image from Jekyll Island, the clouds along the horizon almost become their own landscape, while the waves rolling onto shore add movement, texture and depth. A simple beach scene, but one that feels timeless.

What a beautiful way to spend part of summer break - studying, writing papers and taking quizzes while tucked away on Jekyll Island. Not a bad “classroom” at all.

She is heading into her sophomore year at GCSU, and this portrait felt like the perfect way to mark the season - relaxed, confident and surrounded by the timeless beauty of Jekyll Island’s historic district, with live oaks and Spanish moss framing the moment.

Had the best time photographing this beautiful girl on Jekyll Island this past week.

Her mom dreamed of soft clouds, magical color, gentle ocean waves and a calm evening without too much wind - and Jekyll delivered.

It was the sweetest way to begin the week and such a special reminder that preteen portraits deserve to feel just as meaningful, beautiful and timeless.

Jekyll Island portrait sessions are happening next week — June 23-26 — and I cannot wait to be back in this magical place.

From the soft morning light on Driftwood Beach to the timeless charm of the historic district, Jekyll Island offers the most beautiful backdrop for senior portraits, family portraits, or sweet images of just the kiddos.

These sunrise senior portraits are such a perfect example of why I love photographing here - elegant, dreamy, and full of that coastal magic.

Reach out soon to reserve one of the remaining session times.
