Rose in the Thorns on Driftwood Beach, Jekyll Island

www.jasonlanierweddingphotography.com

This image was taken at my wedding for Opie and Mandy on Jekyll Island, Georgia.  Driftwood Beach has a ton of huge, old trees and roots that are lining the coastline.  I shot this image through the roots of a fallen tree, using off camera flash on the bride to get the lighting that I wanted on her.  It was a terrific time, and I can't thank everyone enough who made this happen including Vanden, Missie, Crystal and more!

I just loved shooting at this beach.  Being a California boy I've grown up around the beach, and I've had the opportunity to travel the world and see beaches in five continents.  That being said, I've never seen a beach like Driftwood Beach on Jekyll Island in Georgia.  Just an amazing place with so many opportunities for photographers!  This was taken during the bridal session with Mandy the day before the wedding.  Great times!
