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.

Working with Hannah was so easy, and the photos from our wedding were exactly what I wanted. I really wanted to maximize the amount of time I spent enjoying my wedding and guests, and Hannah's style was perfect for this – we got our posed portraits done quickly, and the rest of the time she was able to capture what was actually taking place at the wedding. In terms of pre-wedding prep, we met once before I signed the contract and then again about a month before the wedding to nail down details. Hannah was very communicative throughout the whole process, and she turned around 25 beautiful pictures within a week of the wedding for us to share around. I just got 200 more pictures back, and they are stunning. Hannah is such a talent, and I highly recommend her.

Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a big celebration, my approach blends classic elegance with photojournalistic storytelling. More than photography, it's about building trust and celebrating love in all its beautiful forms—honoring every culture, story, and connection.

On the day of the wedding and through the prep leading up to the big day, her fun and friendly personality shone through. She was organized, calm, and seamlessly blended into the background while still guiding us through various moments. The quality of her work is truly outstanding; every photo is beautifully composed and tells a story. She has an incredible eye for detail, capturing not just the big moments but also the little, candid interactions that made our day unique. We are absolutely thrilled with the final images and grateful for the memories she helped preserve. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but genuinely cares about her clients, Sam at Golden Hour Images is the perfect choice.

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!

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.

Linka made our wedding day an absolute dream. She and her team are extraordinarily professional and are dead set on making sure your day is documented with every detail in mind. I am so so so grateful to have had her at my side. The photos speak for themselves!

Nola Darlings Photography

  • 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.

I can’t recommend Ashley’s services enough! Not only does she have the highest standards of professionalism, punctuality, communication and all the other things you expect from a great wedding photographer - the final product photos were absolutely stunning. She has a knack for perfectly capturing the spirit of the event and her dedication to inclusivity really came through in her work and interactions with our guests. 12/10 would recommend!

Born in Thibodaux, raised in Baton Rouge, and been a New Orleans resident for 10 years. With over 12 years of being a professional photographer, my passion has been to magnify others greatness and beauty.

Best photographer hands down! I've worked with Whitney for a long time and he always made me feel beautiful! He's the best at capturing those little unforgettable moments. He helped capture my wedding day perfectly all by himself and I will always have amazing photos to remember it by and to cherish forever. I honestly wish I would've paid more for his bigger package that included videography because it definitely would have been worth it! Book with him, you won't regret it!

Stephen Lomonaco Photography

  • Starts at $1,000

I didn't know it at first, but photography has often been a meaningful part of my life. My dad's prints of birds at the Audubon Zoo hung in our bathrooms, and I often wondered how he took them. By the time I was in high school, I regularly had a disposable in my pocket. It was exciting to capture those brief moments and the people in them, and still so to be able to look back. Connecting with others in a positive way has always been a passion of mine, and thankfully this compliments my role as a photographer. I hope to make a positive impact in this world through the lens, and would love 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!

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.

My style is editorial but approachable and I thrive working with couples who have a genuine heart and open mind.

Gris Gris Photography

  • 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!

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.

Willow was the first vendor I knew I wanted because her photos are so full of life and really bring you into the moment. I wanted to be able to relive my wedding day, not just have stiff formal photos to look through as the years pass. I got exactly what I wanted!! Every photo she took captured all the emotion from each moment (even the posed ones!). She was friendly, bubbly, real, and everywhere all at once. It was super hot in our venue but she didn’t let that stop her. Many of our guests commented how great she was and how just our sneak peak had them both crying and laughing looking through the memories. She was incredible all the way through. Thank you Willow!!!!!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories.

Wedding Photography is so Satisfying! I refer to my style of shooting as “the sniper”. People often tell me when they see a photo pop up on the screen right after I take it… “I never even saw you take that!” That’s the whole idea behind capturing truly genuine and candid moments that can’t be recreated… It’s about being sneaky, having experience and hustling your A$$ off to be in the right place at the right time… and I have so much fun doing it! I’m a proud father of 5 sons and a daughter (she’s the youngest)! I’ve shot over 550 weddings in 14+ years.

Adam was very responsive, reaching out to us almost immediately after requesting more information. He was extremely flexible and worked with our preferred style, getting lots of candid shots throughout our wedding and helping us pose when necessary. His projector setup was a hit with our guests, allowing them to see our whole day and instant action shots during the party! Overall a great experience and we're very thankful.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.
