new orleans wedding photographers
Your story is unique. The way you met, the challenges you've gone through, the memories you have made so far.. Every couple has been through their own hills and valleys up to this point when you're engaged and excited to plan the perfect wedding day (no matter if that's a classic Catholic ceremony or a small elopement on the side of a mountain). My job is to document your love story in a way that freezes this sweet time of your life in the most timeless, whimsical, light-hearted, natural way. Through film photography and my love for the sacred gift of marriage, I focus on your story and who you are as a couple. Your marriage is one of a kind and so should be the photographs that will tell generations about it.

about
I thrive off of couples and weddings and may cry during first dances - I truly see the beauty and reverence in all of my clients' relationships.

True film photography is rare, but I fell in love with the art of film and it has been amazing for both me and my clients!
film photography
Although film is my focus, I shoot digital and match with film scans to make sure your sessions and wedding day is documented in both formats.

We want to make sure we are the perfect fit - both for your budget and your date! Sending over an inquiry will start the conversation to make sure I'm available and for you to receive my wedding investment guide! From there, if we are a good fit, you'll receive your contract and deposit invoice to make it official!
After booking your wedding day, we choose a date for engagements and bridals if you choose to have those portrait sessions (psst.. don't skip them!). We'll discuss locations and outfits and then meet up for a relaxed session where I guide you and your fiance through natural poses and prompts so that you have a gorgeous gallery that shows your personality and unique connection with eachother..
The weeks before your wedding day, you and your wedding planner will have a timeline created and sent over to your photographer and other vendors! My second shooter and I create a plan to document your day in the best way possible with the timeline we are given - from prep, details, group photos, the ceremony, private portraits, then a fun reception with all of your family and friends.
