Every love story has defining moments—and I had the honor of photographing not just one, but two of the biggest moments in Alexis and Bryce’s journey. From a surprise beachside proposal to an emotional and joy-filled wedding day, their full-circle experience with EmmiClaire Photography is exactly why I love offering both proposal and wedding photography. There’s something truly special about documenting a couple’s story from the very beginning to “I do.” This is what wedding and proposal photography is all about: capturing your full love story, from start to forever.
A Proposal at Omni Amelia Island
Bryce knew he wanted his proposal to Alexis to be unforgettable. With a little help from her Instagram (and an EmmiClaire post she loved!), he planned a stunning beach proposal at Omni Amelia Island Resort. Partnering with Wickerpicnic for the perfect setup, he popped the question with the ocean as their backdrop and no one else around—just the two of them and a camera quietly capturing every moment.
Bryce was nervous but excited, and the joy on Alexis’s face said it all. The proposal was romantic, intimate, and full of meaning—a moment they’ll never forget, frozen in time through their photos.



From “Yes!” to “I Do”
After their proposal, I was thrilled when Alexis and Bryce chose EmmiClaire Photography again to document their wedding. Having photographed their proposal, I already knew their love story—which allowed me (and my team) to photograph their big day with deeper connection, comfort, and trust.
Their wedding at The White Room in St. Augustine, Florida was every bit as emotional, fun, and sentimental as they hoped it would be. The day was filled with light blue hydrangeas, soft greens, and personal touches—including Alexis changing into her mom’s wedding dress during the reception.
Some of the most meaningful moments? Their first touch before the ceremony, their first kiss, and a private last dance before the sparkler exit. And let’s not forget the surprise appearance of the USC mascot, adding a playful twist to the celebration.
Bryce described his hopes for the day simply: capture the emotions, the love, the smiles, and the tears. And that’s exactly what we did.
