From Florida’s First Coast
Coastal Living Journal
As a passionate advocate for journaling and storytelling, I capture and preserve the essence of Florida’s First Coast through photography, field notes, and blogging. With an eye for detail and a love for the region’s picturesque coastal towns, live oaks draped in Spanish moss, and rich historical heritage, I create immersive virtual experiences that connect audiences with the unique charm of this coastal community.
With roots in the Appalachia foothills and a twenty-year relationship with the Queen City of Carolina, I bring a unique perspective to my work on Florida’s First Coast. I invite both natives and visitors to interact with, Post Marked Florida, where I blend my background with coastal inspiration to offer high-quality images and engaging blog content that beautifully capture the essence of Florida’s coastal lifestyle.
Through my work, I offer a subscription service—completely free of spam and cost—that provides engaging journal entries and updates, offering intuitive insights for those planning a Florida vacation, exploring St. Augustine’s photography hotspots, or embarking on First Coast adventures.

Me
Matthew A. Crace
Multidisciplined, internationally published photographer
driven by values.
I am a believer, son, brother, husband, father, and friend.
My father is my hero, and he taught me that if it is worth doing, it’s worth doing right the first time.
He also instilled in me the importance of always making good on my word.
I’m hopeful that, without hesitation, you will see the rewards of my father’s lessons through my creativity and photo-journalistic approach.
Learn more about me, my gear, and a few favorites.
Let’s build a coastal community of human interaction that we can share with the world.
