Initially thought it was going to be a Psathyrella dunensis but spore print was not quite dark enough and the spores were all wrong at ~ 14um long.
Perhaps an inocybe??

Yes, I think Inocybe is a good shout. There are some similar looking Hebelomas but they have differently shaped, rough spores.

I. arenicola is the only chunky species I know of in sandy habitats with such big, cylindrical, smooth spores. Please compare with this collection from France, also with Pines (I can see needles in your pics):
