Zac had a beautifully romantic vision for his proposal at Isle of Palms — and it turned into a moment neither he nor Steffanie will ever forget. He reached out to us wanting to create something truly special: a heart made of red rose petals on the sand, set against the glow of the sunset and the sound of ocean waves.





With the amazing work of Chris from Country and Lace Florist, we brought that vision to life at Beach Access 21. The setup was breathtaking — rose petals arranged in a perfect heart, glowing candles, and the ocean stretching out behind it all. It was intimate, peaceful, and picture-perfect.




As Zac and Steffanie took a casual evening walk along the beach, she had no idea what was waiting for her just ahead. Her reaction when she saw the romantic setup was nothing short of magical — surprised, emotional, and completely overjoyed.


After the heartfelt “yes,” we captured the moment with a dreamy photo session. From portraits surrounded by petals to golden-hour shots along the shoreline, every image reflected their love and the beauty of the moment.
