I had so much fun at City Park today taking Lauren and JD’s engagement photographs! It was absolutly BEAUTIFUL outside and we just laughed and had fun 
And oh my, the light was PERFECT! I love City Park… it’s my favourite place to take photos in New Orleans 
Anyway, here is their sneak peek! I can’t wait for their wedding in March YAY!
I’m sure all of you guys know by now how much I love photographing weddings City Park… especially when they include blue Christian Louboutins Total swoon!!! In all honesty though, City Park is so beautiful and there are so many little spots for photographs! Anyway, here is the sneak peek from Jenny and Alex’s wedding today!! More to come
I’ve been waiting to share this wedding with you guys for-EVER! I’ve been so busy I haven’t had a chance to blog a full wedding. Anyway, Nate and Jess are just some of the most awesome and fun people ever. Their wedding was BEAUTIFUL! Seriously, there were little birds and nests EVERYWHERE! It was so organic and pretty They got married and had their reception in New Orleans City Park at the Lath House and Garden Study Center. Then, they did a second line in the French Quarter! I shot a TON of their wedding photographs using my Polaroid Spectra, my SX-70, and my new Polaroid Land Camera 250 (Thank you Impossible Project for allowing instant photography to live!!). Oh, and I also did a ton of Holga shots I hope you guys enjoy them!
I will admit right now to always being slightly nervous before I photography anything. I can’t help it! This time was even worse because not only was I my typical nervous self, I was doing an engagement session for Stacy Reeves who is like, an awesome wedding photographer based in Texas!! See?! Her work is awesome! So yes, I was terrified. However, within 10 seconds of meeting her and her fiance Jason all of my terrifiedness (yes I make up words) went away. They are SUCH an awesome and fun couple I can’t even begin to put it in words! They came to New Orleans for a weekend trip and wanted some photographs done so that’s what we did! It kept raining off an on the ENTIRE time, but we had fun anyway We did some shots in the French Quarter and then moved to City Park Enjoy the photographs!
Emily and Elijah are one of the sweetest couples that I have ever photographed. They got married in the Peristyle in City Park just as the light disappeared and everything went dark. I don’t do a ton of nighttime weddings so I was super excited to photograph theirs! More to come
