A Gulf Coast Beach Engagement | Jorie & Zachary | Biloxi, MS

Jorie and Zachary couldn’t have picked a more stunning location to celebrate their Gulf Coast beach engagement session! The White House Hotel in Biloxi, Mississippi, with its classic elegance and Southern charm, provided the perfect backdrop for this joyful couple’s special day. Just across the street, the pristine sands of Biloxi Beach awaited! Clearly it was ready to capture their playful spirits as the sun set over the Gulf Coast.

A Touch of Elegance at the White House Hotel

We began our photography session on the manicured grounds of the White House Hotel. Jorie and Zachary chose a more formal white look, which added an air of timeless elegance to the photos. Jorie’s dress flowed beautifully as she moved, while Zachary looked sharp in his coordinating outfit. The hotel’s grand architecture, with its historic columns and beautiful terraces, perfectly complemented their classic style.

Their playful energy was evident from the start. Whether they were strolling hand in hand down garden pathways or sharing a twirl under the hotel’s canopy of trees, Jorie and Zachary’s love shone through in every frame. Their dog was a constant companion throughout the session! This fur baby added a fun and heartwarming touch, giving kisses and snuggles while enjoying every moment.

Casual Vibes on the Beach

After capturing the elegance of the hotel, we made our way across the street to the beach. Here Jorie and Zachary changed into more casual outfits. Their white tops and jeans perfectly matched the relaxed vibe of the Gulf Coast. The contrast between their formal hotel photos and the casual beach shots created a well-rounded story of their day, reflecting both their sophisticated and laid-back sides.

Finally golden hour was upon us, casting a warm glow over the sands and waves. The happy couple popped a bottle of champagne, laughing and toasting to their future together. We also spread out a cozy blanket for them to snuggle up on. Without a doubt we captured intimate, romantic images as the sun dipped lower in the sky.

Their dog was just as much a part of this beach session as they were, running along the shore and pausing for some snuggly kisses. These candid shots captured the essence of their relationship—joyful, playful, and full of love.

The Perfect End to a Perfect Session

As the sun set, we wrapped up the session with a series of sunset shots that beautifully summarized the day. The sky blazed with shades of orange and pink, framing the couple as they walked hand in hand along the water’s edge, their dog trotting happily beside them. It was a perfect end to a perfect day, and the images we captured will forever remind them of this special time in their lives.

Jorie and Zachary’s engagement session was a celebration of their love and the beginning of their journey together. From the elegance of the White House Hotel to the casual charm of Biloxi Beach, every moment was filled with laughter, joy, and the undeniable bond they share. It was an honor to capture these memories for them!
