This time it was back to where my fiancé and I went to college for our engagementphotos and the photographer was fantastic! I was very happy with the photos that came out! Cost-effectiveness is definitely the best in New Orleans. Already recommending to friends around me who need it!

We asked Josh to take proposal and engagementphotos of us in and around New Orleans and the French Quarter. Josh did a terrific job. We are so happy with our photos. We will definitely use his services again.

Jeremy did an awesome job with me and my fiancé engagementphotos. He communicated well throughout the entire process and remained professional the whole time. He took amazing photos and made sure to capture the surprise like I asked. He was very patient while getting our families together to take pictures. I highly recommend JG, he is a great photographer!

If you ever have an opportunity to work with Darren do it!!! I used Darren for engagementphotos. He is very easy to work with. Darren is also helpful and accommodating. Not only is he a very professional photographer but he is also really enjoyable to be around. My fiancée had nothing but good things to say about him as well. The photos are beautiful and the overall experience was excellent!
- 5 out of 5 stars!!

Sammy was so awesome to work with. She was incredibly flexible with her time when we ran into a couple of unexpected delays, and she made the entire process SO smooth and fun. She was also incredibly understanding and helpful when my girlfriend (now fiancée) became overheated during the photo shoot, and she even gave us a ride back to our hotel. If you want to get engaged in New Orleans, you’d be a fool not to go with her as your photographer choice.

John was wonderful! He met me exactly on time for my proposal and was able to capture the moment perfectly. Afterwards, he led us around to several spots he had scouted before for a lovely engagementphoto shoot session. He was extremely personable and made us feel right at ease, even though that was our first time meeting him in person. Should we ever wind up back in New Orleans and need a photographer for our anniversary or an event, we will definitely be using John again!

My guy helped pull off our special moment under some unplanned circumstances. Not only did we have to move locations 10minutes before popping the question but we also had to come up with a plan on the fly. Jeremy was excellent. Ended up pulling off the perfect engagement with amazing photos to follow. Fellas he takes the stress out of the whole thing. Would make the trip again just to make sure he did our wedding photos too! Well worth the value and experience.
*Not to mention I work 3rd shift and live over 12 hours away and he made sure to always respond and give amazing details and suggestion to where to go and what to expect. My fiancé loved him and the ideas for photos. 10/10 recommend him!

This was an amazing experience from start to finish. From his initial contact Daren stood out by being concerned with the overall vision of my shoot and not just the basic details of when where what. We were doing a couples shoot for our first Anniversary since we didn't do engagement pictures and he captured everything we wanted to convey in this shoot. He was extremely easy to work with and made me feel comfortable from the second I met him. I am not a person that takes great photos, but he helped me tap into another part of myself that takes good pictures lol. Our pictures look like something out of a fashion spread in a magazine! I can't say enough good things and would recommend him to ANYONE I know for ANYTHING. I will definitely be using him for our future photography needs!

Jeremy and I didn't get to work together due to Hurricane Ida hitting New Orleans. This review is based on his professionalism and responsiveness. He was amazing to work with. He always responded timely and was very easy to talk to. We were planning to do engagementphotos together. He was very helpful walking me through his process and was very open to any suggestions or feedback. He is a pro. I can't wait to come back to New Orleans to work with this man. I would easily recommend him to anyone based on my interactions. Thank you Jeremy! I hope you are safe during these trying times.

AWESOME! Professional and personable. Passionate about photography and capturing a moment in time. I was all over the place with my ideas and was afraid I wasn't communicating them properly but Darren has a way of asking the right questions and unjumbling ideas and thoughts. We flew in from California to take our pictures in a place we've never been, he was awesome enough to go to our hotel a week before and check out the surrounding area also sending me pictures of places including the hotel, so we can get an idea of where we wanted to shoot. He goes above and beyond!! Our pictures in most people's words "we're the best unique engagement pictures I've ever seen!" I Highly recommend him!!!

We paid Gabrielle $250 to do a night time engagement photoshoot with 30 edits. We told her we really liked dramatic, gothic aesthetics that are all over NOLA. We took photos in the French Quarter and things seemed to go alright. We didn’t get much direction from her on posing, but we’ve also never done a shoot before, so we just rolled with it. However, when we got the photos, there were some glaring problems. First, she used a harsh flash on a bunch of the photos; we looked washed out and oversaturated on a black background with really harsh shadows. Many were taken at an upward angle that was super unflattering. Perhaps most disappointing, we didn’t capture hardly any of the backgrounds in the locations we went to or there were visible people/cars/garbage cans. At the time she assured us she could take these out of the images with AI. She also chose to send us every single photo, so we ended up with hundreds, most of which were clearly unusable. I’ve attached some examples. Some were better than others, but this gives an idea of the consistent issues we saw throughout the photos. We quickly realized that it would not be possible to find 30 photos out of the bunch and reached out to Gabrielle. We knew she had done her best here, so we let her know we appreciated her time, but we did not see a purpose in moving forward with the edits and suggested perhaps we work out a partial refund so she was compensated for the time and work she had already put in. We didn’t mention a number, but truthfully we would have been fine with getting 50 bucks back and moving on amicably. We were open to other resolutions as well if she could address our concerns. After a couple days, the response we got back was defensive, hostile and emotionally charged. Instead of offering any type of resolution or digging more into what we were unhappy with, she became dishonest about our agreement and discussions and insisted there would be no refund. Gabrielle claimed the edits were “free” so she had already fulfilled her obligation (this was untrue and had been discussed in our initial contact), she said she advised against a night shoot (she had actually said it would be “cool,” and only advised us she’d have to bring extra equipment), then she began to blame us because on a few occasions she had let my fiancé look through the view finder. At the time things looked ok, but we are not photographers and we had no clue on the range of photos she was taking or their composition. She also implied she had gone above and beyond her obligations because we walked a few blocks around the French Quarter taking photos, which is the location we had agreed to. When we respectfully expressed our disappointment and pointed out the inaccuracies, she proceeded to say she would have a lawyer read our conversations. Eventually, I was forced to end the conversation when she said she was “Sorry we didn’t have the guts to say something at the time,” but that wasn’t her problem. Repeatedly, she asserted that she “fulfilled their obligation” and “did a great job,” while we did our best to maintain a respectful tone. Once we resigned ourselves to going through the edits, she was apparently unclear on what we wanted edited, but she never clarified. When we reached out to check on the edits one month later, she said she never received our list. She then said she “Just wanted to be done with this” and would edit anything we sent her. This was truly a terrible experience and we have a difficult time even looking at these pictures at this point. I have no doubt Gabrielle has her perspective on this, but I have attached images of our conversation for you to judge for yourselves along with examples of the photos. I know it's lengthy, would strongly recommend anyone read them before booking her. We had a night shoot two nights later with a different photographer and we were elated with the results.
