Lake Charles, LA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,100

HI, I'M JULIA BOURGEOIS! I'm from Sulphur, La (Go Tors) but currently live in Lake Charles, La with my husband, Joe, and our son, Brooks! I'm an alumna of McNeese State University with a B.S. in Accounting and a B.S. in Finance. By day, I'm an accountant for the Calcasieu Parish School Board. But by night, you'll either find me mommin', binging Bravo or on a shoot! Photography... That is what fuels my soul. There is something about a shoot that just recharges my creative batteries.

Julia is amazing!!!! She is so friendly and easy to work with! She is very professional and per prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend Julia Bourgeois Photography :)

Emily Fuselier Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Lake Charles, LA
  • Fine art style

I first started my journey in college learning on black and white film. Once we had our first little one I soon began to realize how important it is to preserve our memories, and that is what I strive to do for everyone. I aim to create an environment where everyone is comfortable & less aware of being photographed – giving way to moments that are real & authentic.

Emily Fuselier Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, detailed, and flexible - they answered all of our questions thoroughly and were always available to hop on a call. The quality of their work is truly professional and incredible, with each photo feeling like a work of art. On the day of our wedding, Emily and her team were so helpful, insightful, experienced, kind, and efficient - they seamlessly captured all the special moments without ever being in the way. We are over the moon with the final photos and couldn't recommend Emily Fuselier Photography more highly for any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

  • Serves Lake Charles, LA

Hello, and thank you so much for taking the time to consider MadHart for such a special time in your lives! There are a lot of words I could use to describe me as a person, as well as an artist. Passionate, driven, dependable, hardworking yet delicate, innovative, & spontaneous are a few. But the most important thing everyone should know about me and my art is that, in the core of it all, breaths unconditional love. It is the driving force of my inspiration. To watch something I create bring so much joy to others fuels my fire. It is YOU I do what I do for.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the chance to work with Mad Hart Productions for a wedding. Being a wedding DJ, I have the chance to work with several photographers. Maddy was very easy to talk to and communicate with throughout the night. I had the chance to see some of the pictures from the wedding and they were very nice. Definitely give them a call.

The Faded Lens 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Lake Charles, LA

Hi, I’m Dalton Barron—photographer and founder of The Faded Lens. For over a decade, I’ve been capturing photos with a focus on real emotion, honest storytelling, and quiet beauty. The Faded Lens is built on the belief that your love deserves to be remembered in a way that feels true to you—unposed, artful, and full of heart.

Barron photographed my daughter and her date for their first homecoming dance together, and I highly recommend him! I contacted him after seeing his work on Instagram, and I could tell that Barron was going to capture some truly incredible photographs. His style, which may be seen as intense and bold, is balanced by his creative abilities and obvious genuine love of taking photographs. He met with my daughter and her boyfriend first to get a sense of their styles and personalities, and then observed their natural, unpressured interactions. He also learned that neither one of them enjoy having their picture taken. Using that knowledge, he knew he had to strategize his approach, and Barron did not disappoint! Barron kept the atmosphere stress-free and comfortable, conversation was light and often comical! This personal touch allowed for my daughter and her date to relax, laugh, not feel pressured, and just be themselves! In addition to capturing those strikingly intense, passionate, and posed moments, he also captured their truthful smiles, their genuine laughter, and the overall youthful spirit of them as a couple. The final photographs were breathtaking. You can see his passion for photography in every shot, as well as the palpable emotion and energies between my daughter and her date.

Working with Portraits By Sean was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication style was professional, efficient, and genuinely kind throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly one-of-a-kind - their photos are gorgeous, superb, innovative, and incredibly detail-oriented and precise. The team of two photographers and a videographer was amazing, capturing so many special moments that will forever stay with us from our wedding day. We were especially grateful that they were able to capture our private final dance, which means the world to us. After our wedding, when our oldest son was leaving for bootcamp, Sean thoughtfully sent us additional photos that had been taken during the celebration, which are now cherished keepsakes for our family. I honestly can't say enough good things about our experience with Portraits By Sean - they exceeded our expectations in every way and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they've preserved for us.

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Hiring Ali was the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she felt like a helpful friend who was there to guide us through the planning and execution of our big day(s). She was a calm and supportive presence during our wedding weekend who made herself known when we needed her, but otherwise felt like a guest with a nice camera. Of course the photos look exceptional, but what stands out to us is her artistic eye and her excitement about her craft. She went absolutely above and beyond for us in so many ways and my family and I are forever grateful!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we met Isaac, we knew we were in the best hands. He has an incredibly calming presence and a natural way of making you feel comfortable, which meant we were able to be fully present on our wedding day. Our Sonoma farm wedding unfolded with a gorgeous outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner reception, followed by music and festivities in the barn. Isaac captured every moment with such artistry and intention. The images feel effortless yet elevated as every frame tells a story, from quiet, emotional moments to the joy and movement of our guests celebrating into the night. The photographs from our first dance in the barn truly took our breath away. The way Isaac used the natural light, textures of the wood, and atmosphere of the space made the images feel cinematic and timeless. Working with Isaac was seamless, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely joyful. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day exactly as it felt. The images are beautiful, emotional, and full of life. We are endlessly grateful for his vision and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone dreaming of a wedding that feels both authentic and artfully captured.

I believe your wedding day is about more than beautiful photos, it's about being fully present and celebrating with the people you love. My goal is to create a relaxed, enjoyable experience while documenting your story authentically. From helping with timelines to fixing dress straps and capturing the moments you didn't even realize were happening, I'm with you every step of the way. LGBTQ+ friendly. Love is love, y'all.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amanda was absolutely amazing and a total rockstar on our wedding day. She traveled eight hours to Mississippi just to be there for us. She executed everything flawlessly and made me feel like I didn’t have to think about poses or worry at all about how the photos would turn out! I’m usually very camera-shy and don’t love taking pictures, but Amanda made me feel so comfortable! One of our biggest concerns was timing our bride and groom photos since we chose not to do a first look. The sun was scheduled to set right as our ceremony ended, so we knew it would be a close call, but Amanda made it happen. She was quick, efficient, and captured beautiful moments without making anything feel rushed or stressful. We are beyond grateful for her dedication, talent, and professionalism. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly goes above and beyond and makes you feel confident every step of the way, Amanda is your person! Nothing but love from the Sullivans!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!
