Bridal Portraits in Panama City Beach
A Boho Bride by the Pier at Harrison’s
For this session, we found ourselves in downtown Panama City, tucked along the boardwalk near the Indigo Hotel and the pier by Harrison’s restaurant. It was the perfect blend of Southern coastal charm and downtown elegance.
At Bossalee Photography, we specialize in refined, romantic bridal imagery for couples who value artistry, emotion, and a sense of legacy—whether your celebration takes place along the East Coast or in a destination setting.
A Bridal Session with Heart (and Humor)
Our friend and model, Morgan, is actually already married with two children. However, her wedding several years ago was an intimate ceremony, and we wanted to give her the opportunity to experience traditional bridal portraits. This shoot became a way to honor her marriage while giving space for the romance, creativity, and celebration that bridal photography allows.
As we photographed along the boardwalk, passersby couldn’t help but stop and congratulate her. Each time, Morgan laughed warmly and replied, “Thank you so much! I’m already married to the best guy ever!”
The Bridal Look: Romantic Lace with a Boho Soul
Morgan wore a stunning lace gown with a sweetheart neckline, off-the-shoulder sleeves, and a soft, flowing train. The silhouette was timeless and romantic without being overly structured. Her bouquet featured pink hydrangea, eucalyptus, and white daisies, creating an organic, coastal palette that paired beautifully with the backdrop of the Gulf at sunset.
Her long blonde hair (she has Disney princess hair) was styled in loose, light curls, moving with the sea breeze, while her dainty jewelry added just the right touch of elegance.
Panama City Beach Bridal Portraits by the Water
We photographed along the boardwalk near the Indigo Hotel, letting clean, white architectural lines, soft textures, and a moody sky frame each image. We are often dodging thunderstorms in Florida during the summer and this was no exception. The dark gray storm clouds provided a lot of drama for our backdrop.
True to her boho spirit, she remained barefoot throughout the session. Morgan is always so grounded, effortless, and beautifully herself.
Bridal Photography Beyond the Wedding Day
