I love it when my couples agree to go along with my somewhat crazy ideas. Elizabeth and Garrett got married in Covington and had their reception at the ever so awesome St. Tammany Art Association! It is SUCH a cool space! This was taken a couple windows down from the reception in front of a hardware store 
Yay for Sparklers!
Kayla and David got married in Baton Rouge and had their reception at the Oak Lodge. Kalya made SO MANY AWESOME THINGS for her wedding!!! It was so beautiful 
I took this photo right after she put her dress on. Gotta love the light!
We all know that I love elopements. They are one of my favourite things to photograph. Jody and Tony eloped at City Park in New Orleans on the 23rd of December. They had a beautiful ceremony under an oak tree. After the ceremony we walked around City Park and took photographs Here is their sneak peek!!
This is my one of my favorite wedding photographs of all time. Actually my new favourite wedding photograph was taken a few minutes later up on the levy I can’t wait to show you guys!!! But anyway, Kristi is one amazing lady. We met a for the first time a few weeks ago and ended up talking for almost three hours. THREE HOURS! That’s kind of epic. Plus, all of the details of the wedding were created by Kristi and her friends and family. And I’ll always love a bride who works with me to plan portraits when the light is perfect Here is their sneak peek! It was taken across the street from Manresa House of Retreats in Convent, Louisiana. There are these beautiful rows of giant oak trees and I about passed out from excitement when I got there to set up for the formals.
Jorye is amazing. She’s so sweet and full of life that you just feel happy when she comes into a room. Plus, she’s the best dancer EVER! I totally wanted to throw down my camera and party it up with her. And seriously, how beautiful is she?!?! Plus, she walked down the isle to a song from the Pride and Prejudice soundtrack (which is one of my favourite soundtracks in the entire universe). I cried, and cried, and cried. Especially when I saw Steven’s face as she walked down the isle. He face was so overcome with love for her that I KEPT CRYING! And not because I’m the biggest sap ever. Jorye and Steven, you guys are an amazing, beautiful couple. Thank you so very much for letting me photograph your wedding! I can’t wait to show you the rest of the photographs
