Hi, I’m Hannah. I’m a lover of art, stories, and spark—the perfect alchemy to creating and capturing all those memory-making, magical moments. Weddings, to me, are about your unique narrative, your origin stories and your threads of connection; the ways in which you’ve woven a love through a tapestry of compassion and inspiration and all that makes you you— both as individuals and as a couple. That’s the fabric of the photo, the material I like to work with; because of this, my photos lean atmospheric and candid.

Hannah was a true pro on our wedding day. She was extremely thorough with the planning process and really wanted to make sure she capture the essence of us and our wedding. She made sure that every detail was captured and delivered photos that we love to look at to this day.

Hi y'all! The Zola Profile is new, but I've shot over 1400 weddings. Well over one hundred reviews on other platforms if you need testemonials! I live in New Orleans, so the bulk of my work is in South Louisiana, but I travel all over the world for weddings and leisure. You'll see that my editing style is very timeless. I do not go super dark, or super light and airy. You will also notice a lot of genuinely organic looks from my couples! I like to keep it fun!

Hiring Brad to photograph our wedding was a great experience. He was responsive to our questions and easy to work with. Brad is always friendly, fun, and professional. The pictures from that day beautifully captured our wedding ceremony and reception.

  • 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!

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,000

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!!!

New Orleans, LA
  • Photojournalistic style

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. We will cherish the images forever and wish her all the best.

Stephen Lomonaco Photography

New Orleans, LA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

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 Lomonaco Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Stephen made sure he communicated and asked questions so that he can meet all of our needs and wants. The pictures are phenomenal!!! Breathtaking! It rained on our special day, but that did not affect the level of his photography skills. Actually, it was like a Hallmark love story. I am looking forward to working with him on our family photo shoot soon.

Nola Darlings Photography

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!

We couldn't be happier with our decision to hire Karla for our wedding! From the first consultation to the final gallery delivery, she was professional and incredibly talented. One of the things we appreciated most was how closely Karla followed our picture list. We had a few specific shots and family groupings that were really important to us, and she made sure every one was captured without us having to worry or remind them on the day. Her attention to detail and organization helped everything flow so smoothly. Karla was assertive with family and friends who needed to be included in the pictures- it’s exactly what you need when you have a big wedding party and family! On the big day, she captured every moment perfectly—both the big emotional highlights and the small, candid in-between shots that we’ll treasure forever. Her eye for detail, use of natural light, and ability to make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera truly set her apart. Karla does such a wonderful job giving guidance to everyone involved- even little kids. She blended seamlessly into the day, making sure nothing felt staged or forced, and she captured genuine emotion throughout. The final photos were delivered faster than we ever expected, and the quality blew us away. Her final photographs are so vibrant every color pops! Our friends and family haven’t stopped raving about how beautiful the pictures are! We can’t recommend her enough! Thank you again for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever! Marie & Philip

New Orleans, LA
  • Photojournalistic style

Hey there! My name is Quinn, and I am Fine Art Wedding Photographer. I am an artist, a mother, a friend, a world traveler, and by divine law, genetics or fate, a photographer. Coming from a family of photographers (4 generations and counting), I've learned that documentation is a necessity in life. Without it, how else would we remember those fleeting, timeless moments? With this foundation and the constant inspiration around me, I started XO Quinntographer, a visually stimulating wedding documentary service that explores all of the aspects of photojournalism, and capturing everything worth celebrating: love, family, friendship and art.

Quinn was a pleasure to work with. She was flexible and on time. She communicated with me in a timely fashion and made our wedding day more fun. She is personable and knows a lot of New Orleans history which was a plus when driving through the French Quarter. I hate taking so many pictures so it was nice to feel at ease. My husband and I would definitely use her again as we love our photos.

Kayla Lazard Photography

New Orleans, LA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,499

Hi, I'm Kayla, a Louisiana Photographer that will travel anywhere! I introduced myself to photography by taking a trip to Israel in college I was selected to attend. I purchased a cheap camera for the trip, came home and was suggested to start taking photos. Well, after telling myself no, here I am! I love meeting new people and getting creative with a camera in my hands. Photography just so happened to fall into my lap God. I am also a college graduate from University of Louisiana at Lafayette with bachelors degree in finance. I know, way off from Photography, lol! I’ve now been photographing for 7 years. I love, LOVE on camera!

Kayla Lazard Photography is an incredible wedding photographer that I would highly recommend to any couple. From the moment we first spoke, Kayla's open communication style and ability to really listen and guide us made us feel so at ease. She has an incredible talent for bringing visions to life, and the quality of her work is truly top-tier. In fact, her photography is so amazing that I think she should be shooting with celebrities and at all the red carpet events! After seeing my engagement photos, my bridesmaids underestimated her work by believing she was a white girl…they were even waiting in anticipation to see Kayla's work from my wedding day. And she did not disappoint - Kayla kept me calm and composed throughout the day, never forcing me to pose in any way just to get the job done. You can tell she puts so much love, thought, and artistry into every image. Kayla also has great rapport with the other vendors, ensuring we were all working together seamlessly as one team. I would highly recommend booking Kayla Lazard Photography as soon as possible - she is in very high demand, so be sure to reserve her for your wedding day, engagement session, and any other photography needs all at once to ensure you don't miss out. She is truly the dopest!

  • Starts at $1,850

Though weddings do involve countless grand traditions, these time-honored rituals share space with some of the most quirky, silly, touching, and profoundly, uniquely personal experiences that a family will ever share. As a photojournalist, I'm there to capture these moments - all of the things that make your wedding YOUR wedding. Some of the details are elegant...some are fun...some might just be flat-out strange. But they're all a part of what makes you, your relationship, and your wedding unique. You put a lot of work into making your wedding a true reflection of your personality. My job is to do the exact same thing for your photos.

I had a very small elopement ceremony in City Park and by small, I mean six people in total including the officiant and photographer. None of which had much experience in weddings, save for Willow, who became the impromptu director, patiently explaining to us the set ups for each of the photos and walked us through the majority of the ceremony. She’s incredibly sweet, kind, and funny and made the whole experience very fun and easy! She knew the best places to get great shots and my photos turned out so incredibly beautiful. Her editing style is impeccable and she goes above and bring to make sure you’re happy with every aspect of your photos! She’s very thorough and accommodating, and I got them back super fast compared to what I was expecting. Overall incredible experience, I recommend her to everyone I know!

Hi! Theresa here! I am a thirty something wife and mother who has been shooting weddings for almost a decade! I made a promise to myself after my own wedding photographs were not ideal, that I would commit to documenting life as it unfolds not just for me, but for others. I don't want you to feel the way that I felt looking at my wedding photographs. My clients keep me inspired and they are a constant reminder of how much joy and work it takes to stay married to the love of your life. My style is editorial but approachable and I thrive working with couples who have a genuine heart and open mind.

I'm Jen! I'm a proud Coast Guard spouse who knows all too well the importance of documenting those fleeting moments. I'm a homeschooling mom of 2 girls, lover of Costco and cold plunging and a photographer. I currently live and run my business in New Orleans, but I am originally from Connecticut. I love photographing couples both in my current home (NOLA!) and my always home (CT).

Jen Wolfe is the best!!! We were going to New Orleans to elope and didn’t know any photographers- my (now) husband is a photographer and so he was very discerning when it came to editing styles- he looked over many websites before settling on Jen because she takes beautiful pictures that don’t need over editing. We are so happy we chose her- from the first communication I knew we were in good hands! She knew the venue also which was super helpful. She was prompt and professional and wow was she fast in getting the pictures to us and we are so happy with what she captured on our special day. Honestly we couldn’t be any happier! Thank you Jen Wolfe!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves New Orleans, LA

My name's Traven and I'm a New Orleans wedding photographer. I've been shooting photos ever since I was old enough to grab my mother's old film camera, one I still shoot with today. While we all love a beautiful portrait to memorialize our friends and family being together, I find the real beauty in a wedding is the sense of celebration. Capturing you and your loved ones having a great time drinking, laughing, and twerking are my favorite things to capture. I have, much like my mom's old pictures, always had a very documentary style to all of my work, professional and personal.

We had an incredible experience with Gris Gris and are so happy with how our pictures turned out. He was timely, communicative, and organized and understood our style and vision perfectly. We found Gris Gris through the knot (rather than friend recommendations), so we asked a trusted photographer friend to look through his portfolio. She responded that we should book him right away, and we are so glad that we did! They have a variety of packages to choose from, so their structure works for any type of event. Ahead of the wedding, Gris Gris helped us establish the best timeline for our ceremony based on sunset, and had an excellent set of planning templates to make sure everything went smoothly the day of. We did a quick round of portraits before the ceremony and asked for lots of documentary-style photos during the ceremony and reception. The lighting and exposure were just what we wanted for the finished look. Gris Gris was super accommodating of the shots we wanted, flexible with our atypical ceremony, and were just all-around pleasant to work and spend the evening with. We got preview images within a couple of days and a clear timeline for the full batch of edited images. We could go on forever, but in summary, we would wholeheartedly recommend Gris Gris for a wedding or any other event. Thank you so much!

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."

I remember looking back at my parents’ wedding album—seeing them young and in love, my grandparents there, everyone in celebration over two families coming together. I felt nostalgic, wishing I could be with them and, in a way, feeling like I could be. Some of the photographs were taken in the house I live in now; I attend the church where they were married. The images allow me to relive their day with them. It brings the earliest part of their relationship to life and reminds me of why I do what I do in the first place.

I love to have a camera in my hands and I think it shows in my work. I love everything about my city and picking this profession I get to be engulfed in it every weekend. The best part of having this business is starting a wedding with a client and by the time the process is over I gained another friend. I am very easygoing and laid back since the beginning I have always rolled with the punches. And every wedding without fault I make a friend either in the bridal party or a guest at the wedding.
