Sidney Donaldson Photography 

5.0

New Orleans, LA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • 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!

Soft Glow Studios

New Orleans, LA
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,995

Soft Glow Studios is a wedding photography and videography company that specializes in capturing love stories with warmth, elegance, and authenticity. Our style blends cinematic artistry with natural storytelling, focusing on genuine emotions, timeless details, and the radiant moments that make each celebration unique. We create images and films that feel heartfelt, romantic, and true — memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

Seeing my daughter get married was already the happiest day of my life. But watching it all again through the photos and video they made, I honestly cried so much. They didn’t just capture my daughter, they captured our whole family, the looks, the hugs, the laughter. I noticed moments in the video that I had forgotten about or missed that day. Like my husband wiping his eyes during the vows, and my little niece dancing on the floor like nobody was watching. The photos are not over edited or fake looking, just BEAUTIFUL and timeless. Every detail from the flowers, the cake, to the small decorations I worked so hard on were preserved forever. The team was so calm and patient, which helped me relax too. You really don’t realize until afterwards how important this is, because these memories are all we have now. I can say without a doubt this was the BEST gift to our family.

Love is a wild ride, just like your wedding day will surely be. Soak it up, it’s going to move fast and be filled with magic. My work is to document all of it, with a little finessing here and there. Your wedding photos will mean more to you as time passes and thus my goal is to create graceful, timeless images of you and your loved ones. As a wedding photographer, I am emotion-focused. My job is to capture all the smiles, the tears, the laughs, and the romance of the day in its entirety.

Awarded Best of Zola
Linka and her team can't be beat! We were so lucky to have them shoot our engagement and wedding photos. They made the whole process fun, with no awkward poses, and picked fantastic backdrops every step of the way. They moved FAST on a tight schedule on our wedding day but still somehow managed to capture the entire event in vivid detail. Flipping through the online album (which is easy to share with close friends and family) feels like reliving the best day of my life. Every picture is magical! I don't know how I'll choose which ones to print. Plus, leading up to the event Linka was great to work with. She helped me understand what to expect, answered all my questions, and offered lots of tips to help me prepare. Thank you, Linka!!!

We are so happy that we found and chose Paradigm Gardens for our wedding! We really can’t imagine having done it anywhere else, because this felt like the perfect venue for us. We honestly loved the entire process with Karen and the gardens. We kept wondering why planning a wedding has a reputation for being stressful, because we really enjoyed it. The day went perfectly, and so so many of our guest said it was honestly the best wedding they had been to. I think it is because it was laid back, yet beautiful, felt true to us as a couple, touching, and allowed space and time for genuine connection with us and our guests. Also the food was UNBELIEVABLE. We loved the concept of the outdoor kitchen, it tasted great,and was not your typical wedding food. We also have said multiple times since the wedding that we just miss Karen. 100% recommend if you want a unique and beautiful space and experience for your wedding in New Orleans.

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 was a calming presence during such a busy day. She made time in her schedule to meet with us ahead of time so that she could get the best idea of what we were looking for and how to capture our love through her photos. She was so accommodating, knowledgeable, professional, and loving. I would recommend her to anyone getting married or anyone simply wanting to capture special moments.

I love to make every occasion a special day by creating an experience tailored to each client. With over 14 years of culinary experience across the globe, I have the skills and passion to make sure your event is executed at the highest level, and I pride myself on being flexible and easy to work with. I make everything in house, creating beautifully rustic dishes across all cuisines, and I can accomodate any dietary restrictions necessary while maintaining the quality you deserve and expect!

We looked far and wide for a good caterer. We live in New Orleans so we know that all food here is good, there's another tier you can reach when it comes to truly excellent food. We found Adam at a popup at Margaret Place and luckily he did weddings, so we set up a tasting. He tailored the menu according to our history as a couple, the vibe we wanted to go for and our favorite foods. I've truly never had so many people text me after saying how good our food was. Even the local NOLA people that attended the wedding loved the food. We did family style which was so much fun. His plating was beautiful and everyone loved passing the food around like a great dinner party. Somehow even the chicken thighs we got came out with perfectly baked crispy skin for every single person. My favorite was the pulled pork, and I really don't even like pulled pork. He was extremely relaxed and easy to work with, in the best way possible. Just book him or at least a tasting.

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.

Stephen was so lovely and accommodating, helping us make our short-notice elopement extra special and romantic. We were instantly so comfortable with him, and his ease and familiarity with the city made him the perfect scout for great images. We love the pictures -- they totally captured our vibe -- and spending time with Stephen felt like hanging with a fun friend. Everything you could want!

They are completely transparent with pricing and expectations, and then they went above and beyond to make our day unbelievable. Even the little things you don’t think of from parade permits to a microphone for the officiant, Abby was on it! All we had to do was explain that we were millennials, and the eight piece band took that and ran with an utterly perfect set list! It was nothing short of magic!

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.

If you are looking for an unforgettable addition to your wedding or private event, look no further than Hot 8 Brass Band. I first heard them perform at a concert in New Orleans. When my then-fiance and I decided we were going to get married in New Orleans, they were my first choice as performers. We're not from New Orleans and neither were the majority of our guests. We knew that if we were going to introduce the idea of a second line, we had to get it right. Hot 8 delivered! Right after our cocktail hour, guests were offered champagne and invited to line-up. As we made our way down historic St. Charles Avenue, Hot 8 played a medley of Teddy Pendergrass, Tems, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Bill Withers and more. Folks went crazy. After we returned to the venue, they went into an hourlong set that kept the dancefloor full. Even I popped up a few times to dance underneath the stars, with our stars! We're a month out and our guests, who were a range of ages and races, still can't stop raving about this band. If you want to ensure your guests have an out-of-this-world experience that they won't soon forget, make sure you book the Hot 8 Brass Band.

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.

It is always such an honor to be part of someone’s big day and I love seeing my clients’ faces when they see the final look. It has always been a dream of mine and I am grateful that I get to do what I love.

Kristen started her career over 25 years ago planning corporate and social events for Marriott International.

She has a planning style that is calming but passionate, ensuring her couples have everything they wish for on their wedding day. Kristen is blessed to have surrounded herself with wedding professionals who share the same passion of creating the perfect day for our clients.

Kristen was an absolute lifesaver for my daughter’s wedding. Her incredible attention to detail and creative spirit ensured the day was truly perfect. From start to finish, we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. She created a timeline and kept everything on track, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day while making sure all the special moments happened just as planned. We are so grateful for her hard work and dedication and highly recommend her to anyone planning their wedding!
