THE GIRL WITH THE CAMERA

MEET TASHA

laidback vibes meets super-profesh resume

With or without my camera, I’ve built a life that lives at the intersection of chill and reliable. Which basically means for my couples that I make their photography fun without ever being pushy. You tell me what you need and I’m there with a smile.

If I wasn’t a photographer, I’d be a walking tour guide. Nothing inspires me quite like the gorgeous mansions, grand old oaks, and colorful culture that makes New Orleans vibrant. Instead of going on a tour, though, I get to explore all these amazing places when I’m there to photograph you and your wedding. How lucky am I!?!

THE GUY WITH THE CAMERa

MEET
JACOB

self-taught meets self-motivated

Eight years ago, I fell hard for documenting weddings when Tasha started bringing me in to assist. It combines everything I love—getting to meet new people (if you can’t find me ever, it’s because I’m becoming best friends with your dad), experiencing new things, and creating something lasting while I’m at it.

Outside of videography, you can find me literally outside. I love to kayak, rock climb, and get out and explore with my family.
