Baton Rouge Wedding Photographer Parc 73 1

Baton Rouge Wedding Photographer So – you know how cartoon characters go all heart-eyed and love-struck every time they see one another in a TV scene? They lock eyes, and everything else goes still, and there’s usually some romantic tune playing which presumably only the two of them can hear? I am not even kidding when I say […]

Baton Rouge Wedding Photographer Governors Mansion 1

As much as I *love* getting portraits done on a Wedding Photography day, I’ll be honest. There’s not always a lot of time to get them done. That sounds a little ridiculous. I know, because it *feels* like you’re taking photos all day long. But in reality, you’re usually trying to cram couples’ photos into […]

You can have all of the perfect decorations, and flowers, and clothes, and music; but what really makes the memories of a wedding day magical are the people who […]

New Orleans Documentary Wedding Photography Two Sisters 27

Y’all. Could this New Orleans Wedding Photography have made me any happier? A totally laid back couple, beautiful sunny day in City Park, a bride that read from Wonder Woman during the ceremony, a groom cracking jokes at every turn and a carousel ride at the end? I mean, seriously – I couldn’t plan weddings […]

Baton Rouge Wedding Photography Roux House S and S 1

I love chill people. Stephanie and Stephen were just such people – you’d never guess that the stress of wedding planning had ever occurred to either of these two. Their whole day was so laid back, and fun, and calm – no bride (or groom)-zillas, here! These two got married at The Roux House in […]

  This. Wedding. Was. Amazing. These two love birds got married at Oakleigh House of Receptions in Denham Springs, with the ceremony performed by their own pastor.

Now that this gorgeous girl is married, I can *finally* show off her bridal portraits! How gorgeous is Sarah?? We took these images on the grounds of Oakleigh House of Receptions in Denham Springs, and this place made for an absolutely beautiful backdrop for an absolutely perfect bride. The sunset was perfect! I was completely […]

New Orleans Vietnamese Wedding Photography M And J I love Vietnamese weddings – and not just because I eat so well at them! 😉 The people are always kind, and wonderful, and so much fun, inevitably.
