Oconee County High School Prom | Young Love

A couple of days ago was prom night for Oconee County High School students. Last year things were cancelled due to COVID, but thankfully they were able to make things happen this year! Such an honor to photograph these two before they headed out for their big night. Her dress was a special order that she had shipped in and her date did a great job getting his accessories the exact same color of her dress.

We took their prom portraits at this young man’s family home. We really lucked out with weather as the forecast had originally called for severe thunderstorms, but it was just overcast and calm during the session. I am sure they were quite relieved!

These two have been dating for three years and are just the sweetest together. He had mentioned that he was a little nervous before she arrived, but that appeared to quickly go away once she arrived and they were together.

We got a lot of variety during their quick petite session and then they were off to their big night! Such an honor to be trusted with these images for the two of them. Man, the past year has been hard and I think for teenagers it has been even harder since they have missed out on so many big milestone moments of their high school days. So happy that their prom happened this year before they graduate! It is something that I know many young adults look forward to, which makes this prom even more special and cherished for those who were able to attend.

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.
