Nola Darlings Photography 

5.0

New Orleans, LA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500

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. Nola Darlings Photography truly helped make our wedding day perfect, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, personable photography team!

New Aera Wedding Photography 

5.0

New Orleans, LA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

New Aera is a New Orleans wedding photography studio led by Whit Forrester. We believe wedding photos are heirlooms — archives of the people you love, preserved for generations. With a documentary and editorial eye, we capture the candid, unscripted moments alongside the beautifully composed ones. From intimate French Quarter elopements to grand celebrations, we bring artistry and genuine care to every wedding. Our couples return to their galleries for years, sharing images that go on to other altars, other ceremonies, other lives.

As someone with a photography background, I think the photos are one of the most important parts of a wedding. As someone who is admittedly hard-to-please, I was really nervous that no one would be able to live up to my expectations, but Whit at New Aera did an incredible job! I normally hate the way I look in pictures, but Whit managed to capture the exact moments and angles that made me (and everyone else) look amazing. He has a great sense of composition and lighting, and his style is very editorial/documentary, which I liked. He captured a lot of little moments before and after the wedding - like me putting on the cake-topper or my brother helping take the decorations down after the guests left - and didn't just focus on the "main event." I love that because those moments were kind of a blur at the time, but the pictures help me remember them just as vividly as the moment I said "I do." I can't recommend New Aera highly enough- they are amazing!

Hey, I’m Audie! No not like the car lol but pronounced like Audience…just drop the '“nce” If you are wondering who is behind the camera, you came to the right place. Obviously the “About Me” section is nearly impossible for me to sum up who I am, but here are a few things you should know. I love traveling! I have had a travel bug that needed an itch for quite some time now. Traveling has always been a passion of mine. My parents think I ought to slow it down a bit, but hey You Only Live Once right? I recently traveled to Bali this past January. I can tell you all about it at our next session ;)

Audie as absolutely Perfect! His calm demeanor and professionalism put us at ease on such a overwhelming day. The photos are stunning. We highly recommend Audie J to anyone looking for a talented and reliable wedding photographer who is both talented and professional."

Canyon & Pine: Wedding Photography + Films

  • Classic style
  • Serves New Orleans, LA

Emma & her team have been photographing weddings for 13 years, building Canyon & Pine as a husband-and-wife studio rooted in experience. Before weddings, Emma worked as a photojournalist — a background that still shapes the way she sees a wedding day unfold: quickly, intuitively, and with an eye for the moments that matter long after the cake is gone. Their work balances artful candids with guided portraits that feel natural, romantic, and genuinely fun. The editing is timeless, and the priority is always the same: the people. Parents. Grandparents. Best friends. The faces you’ll want framed when the years start to stack up.

Awarded Best of Zola

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsey is a dream to work with. I looked through her portfolio and knew I wanted to work with her. Not only did I love the engagement shoots she has done, but it was amazing to see that she had done a lot of weddings at the venue I picked. I had her do my engagement photos & 6hrs for the wedding. She was very responsive anytime I reached out. I know wedding season is very busy, I never felt like I was left hanging. While my new husband is comfortable in-front of the camera, I was very much not. Kelsey is great at guiding and making you feel comfortable. Our engagement photos were something different from her portfolio, the arcade, and she did a phenomenal job like I knew she would. Stephanie assisted us on the day of the wedding and she was wonderful too. I provided a detailed shot list for the family portraits and she did a great job navigating the family. After dinner Kelsey was able to provide me with a sneak peek of my photos. I am so excited to see the rest of my photos!

First of THANK YOU BRANDY! You are PHENOMENAL! You found your calling when you decided to work as a wedding photographer! Your personality was everything I hoped for! She worked so well with my coordinator and everyone! You made me feel so comfortable, you went ABOVE & BEYOND my expectations. She helped me with my wardrobe malfunction, helped fix my bouquet and helped bustle my dress when she didn't need to. Brandy was just such a lovely person to work with, I cannot stress that enough! I absolutely hate my "real" smile and you made me love it in some of the photos, but that is just a me thing. I LOVE IT ALL even the ones where I'm laughing like a hyena! The quality and detail of the photos are beautiful and so elegant! I would 100% recommend Brandy to all the future brides out there. Brandy is not just there taking photos, she is making sure she is capturing the memories you WANT! She has a very structured program she uses to make sure she knows the exact details you are looking to get on your special day. Overall, If I could give Brandy more than 5 stars I would, she made me look beautiful in the photos and made sure that my back fat wasn't showing lol. THANK YOU for everything!

The minute I saw Morgan's portfolio I just knew we had to hire her for our April wedding. Her photo's were just so vibrant and you could tell that she really loved what she does.

When we first met at our engagement session, you would have thought we were friends with her for years! She is so down to earth and truly makes you feel so comfortable during your session. Morgan thoughtfully helped create a day of timeline for wedding photos and it was so helpful and took a lot of stress off of me. The day of our wedding, Morgan was on time & brought all of the vibes that you want on your wedding day- she even helped me with my veil! My whole wedding party loved her and also felt so comfortable while taking photos because of how fun she makes it. I truly don't even have words to sum up how gorgeous our wedding photos came out! A beautiful mix of classic, and black & white- she captured the day perfectly. Almost a year later and I still look back at her photos probably weekly!

Hi, My name is Kaylan Ivy and I'm a visionary. I thrive in the most creative settings and enjoy making others dreams a reality. My passion for photography and videography started when I was working in the ministry many years ago. When you work at a church you are often required to wear many hats. One of my hats was filming video announcements and making camp videos for youth and children's church. Over the years my talent grew, my skillset became stronger and I soon felt confident enough to start my own business.
