Nola Darlings Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
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!

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."

Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful.

Canyon & Pine: Wedding Photography + Films 
Rating: 5.0 (22 reviews)
  • 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
Where do I even begin? Hiring Emma (and the Canyon & Pine team) was, without question, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the first message, Emma made us feel seen, understood, and genuinely cared for—not just as clients, but as people. Her warmth, clarity, and professionalism stood out right away. She was never pushy or salesy—just honest, open, and full of heart. You can feel how much she loves what she does, and that passion shines through every step of the way. Planning with her was such a gift. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, asked thoughtful questions, and helped build a timeline that felt intentional and realistic. We had no idea how much a great photographer could shape the rhythm of the day, but Emma guided us with total ease. She helped us make decisions we didn’t even know we needed to make—like the best time for a first look or how to slip away for sunset portraits without missing the dance floor. Every call and email left us feeling more prepared and genuinely excited. She was organized without being rigid, confident without being controlling, and always a joy to talk to. Her communication was flawless—fast responses, clear expectations, and tons of insight from someone who truly knows weddings inside and out. On the day itself, she was pure magic. She showed up calm, ready, and creative. She struck this beautiful balance between leading and stepping back—giving just enough direction to help us feel confident in front of the camera (and we are not camera people), while still letting real, candid moments unfold. Nothing felt forced. Just natural and authentic and beautifully captured. There’s a steadiness to her presence that put everyone at ease—not just us, but our families, wedding party, and even the more chaotic guests. She got beautiful portraits of our parents, caught blink-and-you-miss-it moments with our friends, and wrangled our huge, goofy bridal party without breaking a sweat. Her team was just as wonderful—kind, professional, totally in sync. You can tell they’re not just skilled, but genuinely care. And then the gallery arrived. I’m not exaggerating—we screamed. Every photo was stunning—true to color, thoughtfully composed, and full of emotion. We saw ourselves in these photos in a way we never have before. They weren’t overly trendy or filtered. They were timeless, honest, vibrant, and full of life. You could feel the intention behind each frame—the lighting, the angles, the storytelling. She delivered everything with care and artistry, and the gallery was so easy to navigate and share. People haven’t stopped talking about our photos. We’ve had so many guests tell us they’re some of the best they’ve ever seen—and we agree. More than anything, Emma is just an incredible human. Kind, thoughtful, funny—she pours her heart into every wedding she takes on. We never felt like “just another client.” She treated our day with the same care and intention we did, and that made all the difference. If you’re on the fence—don’t be. Book her. Book her yesterday. You’re not just hiring someone to take pretty pictures. You’re bringing in someone who will support you, advocate for you, and create heirlooms you’ll treasure for the rest of your life. We’re forever grateful. Thank you, Emma.

Kelsey and Britt were incredible photographers for my wedding! They came with such great energy and seemed so excited to get started running around and taking photos! They were so comfortable to be around and made the photos go so quickly and easily. Kelsey even edited a few photos AT THE RECEPTION when no one was looking and made sure my sneak peeks were sent to me before the wedding was even over!

The quality of her work is truly exceptional - her artistic, bright, personal, and detail-oriented photos captured our day in a way that feels like a treasured family heirloom.

Morgan helped keep me calm when things didn't go as planned, and her focused and confident approach ensured we got all the shots we wanted. She learned who my closest family and friends were, and made sure she included numerous candid shots of them in our gallery. She is incredibly creative and is able to use her artistic eye to find the perfect backdrops and framing for her shots. Her passion for photography is evident in every image, and we are so grateful to have these beautiful memories to cherish for years to come.
