  • Photographer

  • Starts at $500

I've been shooting weddings for almost 10 years now and love every single one. The love, the joining of 2 people, and the fun of having everyone together. I strive to have every single important moment captured to remember for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
We knew from the start that our wedding would be a small, intimate affair, and we wanted a photographer who could capture the special moments without being intrusive. Sidney was absolutely perfect! Communication was a breeze. Sidney was always responsive, and they took the time to understand our vision for the day. He arrived early arrived and with an assistant and both blended seamlessly into the background. They captured candid moments of our family and friends, as well as some beautiful posed portraits. We received the sneek peak very quickly and the only "hard part" is picking from all the many photos to move on to the final gallery!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our 100 person wedding at Paradigm Gardens in April of 2024 was perfect. For starters, their Private Events Director Karen is unparalleled. Communication was clear and consistent from the very beginning, and we never felt like they were trying to upsell us. As two more laid-back brides, she made sure we didn't overlook any important details. If your food is the most important aspect of your wedding, stop reading this and call Paradigm Gardens to book now. Our budget was fairly limited, but Chef Pat over at Karibu Kitchen (Paradigm Gardens' Catering) made the most of every dollar we spent. The food and bar packages were, hands down, the best we encountered at any venue in New Orleans. We had so much fun designing our custom menu with Chef Pat, and the tasting at Tchoup yard was one of our favorite parts of the planning process. Our family and friends still tell us it was the best food they've ever had at any wedding. The team even went out of their way to make sure our bar included our favorite brand of pickle vodka shots which turned out to be one of the highlights of the night. The location in Central City was perfect. It allowed us to have our rehearsal dinner downtown, and also take our pre-ceremony pictures at Audubon Park without requiring much driving time to and from the venue. The lush garden was more than we could have asked for as a backdrop. We said our vows in a short ceremony then watched the sunset over cocktails and dinner. The jasmine was in full bloom which made for awesome photos. The goats were a big hit with our wedding guests and the outdoor kitchen acted as a sort of fiery centerpiece to the whole evening. We had a local DJ playing New Orleans bounce and spent the majority of the night on the dance floor under the string lights. Without a massive budget, we anticipated having to compromise on a lot of aspects to be able to afford a wedding in New Orleans, but we couldn’t have been more wrong. We will forever be grateful to the folks at Paradigm Gardens for giving us the wedding of our dreams.

What some of you may or may not know is that I have two superpowers. During the day, I teach middle school English Language Arts. In the evenings, I turn sugar & flour into sensational works of delicious, edible art. I've been teaching for 11+ years and baking for over 40 years. ​ Both are my passions. As much joy as I get out of teaching, baking is the icing on the cake! About 11 years ago, I turned my hobby baking into a "side hustle" that grew into a thriving business. The journey has been filled with many sweet successes. I look forward to meeting with you and becoming a part of your beautiful story.

Working with Sensational Sugah was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Her communication style was easy, quick, and detailed, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of her work and value was exceptional, going above and beyond our expectations. Sensational Sugah took the time to get to know us, ensuring that the details were perfect for our special day. We opted into a tasting in advance, and the care she took in the preparation and presentation was truly remarkable. For our nearly 100 guests Sensational Sugah created our main cake (two cake flavors with a buttercream icing), a suprise carrot groom's cake, and two smaller dessert options that truly wowed our guests!

Behind the camera, I am witnessing every detail that presents itself to me. I am a freelance photojournalist, second generation florist + floral preservationist and seasoned wedding photographer based in New Orleans. I have this superpower that helps everyone feel comfortable getting photographed, and I capture things just as they are. Years in the service industry carved a work ethic out of easy connections; I love to meet and work with new people. Planners, lovers, dreamers, welcome to the fold.

Stephanie Tarrant Photo was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the very first interaction, Steph's friendly, understanding, and patient demeanor put a smile on our faces. Her gregarious nature helped bring everyone together, even those who didn't know each other well. She has a fun, open personality that made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and in general. Steph's work is truly captivating - her cinematic style captured all the beautiful, special moments of our day in a way that far exceeded our expectations and keeps us coming back to her. Steph was there from start to finish, seamlessly blending in to join in on the fun. She was amazing with our 5-year-old nephew, getting him to smile and engage with the process. Both for our elopement and our larger religious ceremony, we were ecstatic to have Steph as our photographer. We couldn't be happier with the memories Stephanie Tarrant Photo has provided us with and I will never call anyone else for our special moments.

Get in touch with us today, and we can begin to bring your vision for your perfect day to life!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hands down the best and easiest vendor to work with! I can’t recommend them enough, Elysian Events truly went above and beyond to make our day so special. First and foremost - the food was absolutely delicious. We were so impressed by the amazing menu options, it was very difficult to choose because everything sounded so good! We heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests about how impeccable the food was. We had several guests who were vegan and gluten-free. Elysian Events gave us numerous options on their menu to choose from, and also worked with us to swap ingredients around to be more GF/V friendly - like tortilla chips instead of pita in the hors d'oeuvre or making sure the dressing on the salad was vegan friendly. It was so important for us to provide a delicious meal to our guests with dietary restrictions, Elysian Events made it so easy! Amelia is a rockstar. We were on a tight budget and I did much of the planning and coordinating myself. Amelia walked us through everything and quickly responded to all of our questions, big and small - from catering options, to menu signage, trash, making sure we had a stand for the cake, and more! Elysian Events also went above and beyond to accommodate us with a regional wedding tradition. In my part of Ohio we have a cookie table tradition, where the family makes dozens and dozens of cookies. In my case my mom and Aunt drove about 600 cookies down! Elysian Events not only helped by supplying trays for the cookies, but to tray them and set them out once dinner service was complete. I’m so grateful for how incredibly accommodating they were and how seamless everything was. I can’t recommend them enough!

Brandon Thorn and Adam at Crimson Quarter Weddings went above and beyond to make our wedding day seamless! One of the things that I loved right away about Brandon when I first spoke with him was his authenticity, friendliness and sense of humor. I knew immediately that he was a genuine person who really cared about getting to know me and my fiancé. As a result, we became friends pretty quickly and got to know a lot about each other beyond wedding planning-related tasks. I so appreciated this because it meant that I felt like I had an ally to help me navigate the wedding planning process. Brandon will truly support you and go to bat for you if there is a communication issue or conflict of interest with another vendor or venue. I learned as a bride that it is really important to have someone like Brandon who is there 100% looking out for your best interests. I also appreciated that while I hired Brandon as my Day-of-Coordinator, he did way more than just day-of coordinating duties, including attending meetings with my venue several months in advance. He also always answered my texts and emails quickly and communicated with me frequently. This made me feel secure knowing that Brandon really cared about me! On the day of the event, we had to move our ceremony inside due to rain, and Brandon and Adam worked hard to still ensure that the décor and other elements for the ceremony were still set up to look beautiful inside. They also worked with the venue to make some changes to the furniture layout in order to still ensure that the space was set up to make us and our guests have the best experience possible. They also did an outstanding job taking down the décor and cleaning up so that my new husband and I could enjoy our second line and afterparty without having to worry about going back to the venue to clean up. When we returned to our hotel room much later that night, all of our items, including personal items that we had left in the venue space, were all returned to us and neatly stored in our room. We really felt taken care of the entire time. On top of all of this, I really felt like the fee we paid Brandon was an excellent value for the service that we received. I compared Brandon's pricing to other Day-of Coordinators in the New Orleans area, and I can say with certainty that his prices are better that most of the competition, especially for the level of service that you will receive! I would 100% recommend Crimson Quarter Weddings to any bride, groom or individual wishing to host a party/event in the New Orleans or broader Louisiana and Mississippi area!

Hi! I didn't realize it at first, but photography has always been a meaningful part of my life. I often admired my dad's prints of birds at the Audubon Zoo hung in the house, and when my mom would share boxes of photos, I couldn't help but feel wonder while turning each page. By the time I was in high school, I always had a disposable in my pocket. It was so exciting to snap those brief moments to be remembered and retold in the future. Although I have decades of experience behind the lens, it was not until 2020 that I officially opened by business as a freelancer. I love working with others, and eager to help tell your story.

That’s the fabric of the photo, the material I like to work with; because of this, my photos lean atmospheric and candid.

Rob, the band leader, was a pleasure to work with—professional, organized, and easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. Sunny Side even learned and performed our first dance song, which they had never played before, and it was perfect.

My dream for Nola Darlings Photography is to create a safe and inclusive space for all people. No matter who you love, how you love, or what you look like you deserve to have amazing photos. Let’s face it, a lot of what we see out there just isn’t relatable. The vibe might seem very relaxed but I’ve been behind the camera (professionally) for over 10 years and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Photography. I was being published in magazines in Orlando before I graduated from college. I just like to use everything I’ve learned over those many years to make it feel incredibly easy and even fun, yes fun, for my clients.

Nola Darlings Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From our first conversation, Ash was always friendly, relaxed, and completely professional. She made me feel comfortable in front of a camera, which isn’t easy! On the day of the wedding, Ash seamlessly guided us through all the photo moments, providing just the right amount of direction to ensure we looked our best without ever feeling overly posed or staged. The final photos were absolutely stunning - high quality, vibrant, and captured all the special moments of our day. We couldn't be happier with the value and speed of her work.

The Grammy Winning Hot 8 Brass Band provided an exceptional experience for our wedding. Their communication was professional, clear, and consistent throughout the planning process. The quality of their work exceeded our already high expectations - they delivered two amazing live sets across our venue in a single evening, giving our guests a world-class performance and service that felt like we had "brass royalty" at our event. We were thrilled with how they contributed to making our special day truly unforgettable.

Warm Advice 

5.0

New Orleans, LA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000

New Orleans-based queer DJ specializing in LGBTQIA+ weddings. Locally serving New Orleans and Baton Rouge, also available for destination weddings! I'm here to make sure your wedding becomes the most unforgettable dance party your guests have ever been to 😎

I say this with the truest sincerity - our wedding reception would not have been the same without Warm Advice/Kendall. From the initial conversation to me changing up the timeline mid-party, Kendall was an absolute rockstar. It was super important to us to have queer/supportive vendors and we really hit the jackpot finding Warm Advice. I couldn’t imagine having another DJ vibing with us all night long. Ultimately, we had a few “hard nos” but otherwise mostly let Kendall do their thing and they absolutely killed it. The price point is unparalleled for the quality, professionalism, and creativity. I am quite certain this won’t be the last time we work with Kendall.
