Meet Allie and Derek

Allie and Derek will be married in just a couple of weeks. Allie grew up in Lafitte and really wanted to do her bridals and engagement session on the trails that she explored with her dad and grandma growing up. (I stand corrected ;) -- her brother was also around for many of these excursions as they got older. They still have contests to see who can spot snakes, alligators, etc. first.) She was so excited when she found out I would go there for pictures. In fact I loved the idea because it was something different. I had no idea how gorgeous it was going to be. The scenery was breath-taking. On the bridal session (which I can't post just yet, not until the wedding) the temperature was about 105 degrees out. I'll tell more about that experience when I post the images. The weather for the engagement session was just the opposite; we were even chilly a few times. And we saw an alligator and a HUGE spider on this excursion -- only a snake on the first.
Anyway, enough about the atmosphere, Allie and Derek did wonderful! They were so cute because they couldn't quit laughing -- which kept me laughing the whole time too. :p We had a good time, and the pictures are beautiful. I'm so happy I was able to do these for Allie because I know that she has such a personal connection to the locations. Enjoy the pictures!

Meet Julia and Brock

Julia and Brock will be married next April. He proposed to her on Tulane's campus on the bench that you will see in the pictures. They had a very cute session--they weren't afraid to be cuddly at all, which of course I love!! One of my favorites is the last shot of the streetcar...very romantic. Great job you guys!!

Dawn's Bridals

I can finally post Dawn's fun bridal session! We shot around Lafayette St. in the Warehouse District. She looked so great, very modelish! The pictures came out great thanks to her laid back attitude and complete trust throughout the session. Enjoy!
