I pinched myself at least once a minute just to make sure I wasn’t dreaming during this session.

Johnna and Jay were married in September (you may remember their wedding from this blog post) and with a shared passion for rescuing horses, we had always planned to do a session on the beach later in the year when it opened up for these majestic creatures.

With beautiful florals, modified wedding attire, four of their four-legged friends, and their love to keep them warm (as well as about 100 layers of tulle for Johnna) we took to the beach and magic was made. I’m so grateful to have gotten to know this beautiful couple and their loved ones over the last year, and a huge shoutout to the behind the scenes family who made this memorable session possible - you guys are the best!
