Cultural birth photography at Woman’s Hospital was a new experience for me at this birth session. But, if there’s one thing that I’ve learned in my work as a birth photographer, it’s that motherhood is a universal language. It ties us all together with common experiences–despite differences in the tongues that we speak. I met […]

What should you pack in your wedding day emergency kit? There are a million lists out there, but what do you really need? Having photographed many weddings in Baton Rouge and New Orleans, I’ve seen a lot of scrambling when unexpected emergencies come up. It’s hard to anticipate everything that may come your way on your wedding day, […]

I’ve got a really special story to share with you guys on the blog, today. And it’s not a sad one, not really. It’s a story of hope, and love, and faith – and a whole lot of baby magic. Super-mom Elizabeth has graciously written their family’s rainbow baby birth story for the blog today. […]

Wondering what the best photography locations in the Baton Rouge area are? I hear this question a lot! “Where should we take our pictures??” Lucky for you, I’ve photographed a lot of sessions – in a lot of different locations!

This birth photography session at Woman’s Hospital in Baton Rouge was an extra-special one. One of the greatest privileges I experience is being asked to document sibling births. It’s an honor to be trusted with a couple’s first birth. But it’s an extra special honor to be trusted again! When Meredith and Jesse asked me […]

Beth and Jordy’s Gonzales wedding at Holy Rosary Catholic Church–followed by their reception at Elegant Affairs–was one for the books, y’all. I talk a lot with my clients about what documentary wedding photography really means, and how it affects their day (or doesn’t, really). These guys were a couple who just got it, right away, and […]

Erin and Marcus are two of THE most amazing, sweet, fun people I’ve ever worked with. I knew their wedding at Elegant Affairs was going to be a blast AND I WAS NOT WRONG, FOLKS. Despite us having some CRAZY weather roll through, everything went off absolutely perfectly for their wedding day. The guys at […]

I love photographing engagement sessions in New Orleans. Crescent Park is one of my particular favorite locations, too. But you know what I love photographing even more than engaged couples? Kick-ass, adventurous engaged couples. Autumn and Adam were the best for our Artistic Engagement Photography New Orleans. Not only did they drive two hours to photograph […]
