Working with Elise & her team, of Elise Bennett Photography, was an ABSOLUTE pleasure! We hired her…read moreto provide the photography services surrounding both our engagement and wedding day. From the start, you can tell how dedicated she is to her craft and the entire process. You feel like you have a true fighter in your corner when it comes to Elise Bennett. When our engagement photo shoot location got rained out she scrambled to find an alternative location and the photos turned out beautifully. She'll climb, squat, head-stand just to get the perfect shot! It's amazing watching her work, but more impressively, most of the time you don't even notice her buzzing around snapping shot after shot, because she creates such a relaxed, organic atmosphere for her clients. Elise Bennett takes the time to get to know her clients on a personal level, which was very important to me. She understands that life can get crazy and is willing to work with you no matter what the circumstances are. Her organizational skills are a sight to behold, especially during a time when most brides have so many other issues to consider. Elise will keep you on track and you won't have to worry about timing for your photographs, since she will certainly have it all planned out well in advance. Prior to your wedding, Elise will take time out of her day to drive around and scout your locations with you. Her shot recommendations are always impeccable, as Elise and her team are not afraid to push themselves and you. If you have a vision, she will make it happen, period! Elise and her team have a true eye for the art of photography, as well as a driven desire to provide the most superior client-photographer relationship. They garner an unparalleled understanding of their clients' wants, desires and dreams for their special day, and this clearly shines though in the finished products. Elise Bennett Photography is the team you need to hire when you want only the most professional and artistically skilled photographers to capture your most irreplaceable and memorable moments.

She works hard to capture every memory from the day, and the pictures that you get in return are absolutely stunning!! After being married for over a year, I still look back at my wedding pictures frequently and cannot get over how beautiful they are! My husband and I have agreed that choosing Elise as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made about the whole wedding (and our wedding was amazing!), because the pictures last a lifetime. Elise is THE BEST at what she does!!

We met Amin at a Bridal show in New Orleans. After signing up for a contest, we received a…read morenotification stating that we won a free engagement shoot, which included 1 free print. We had a consultation for the engagement shoot, which included a consultation for wedding services (at the time we were looking to hire a videographer/photographer). Amin was adamant about skipping the free engagement session and adding it into our wedding package which would give us an additional 2 hours of coverage (since the engagement shoot is 2 hours as a stand alone service). He also asked us to prepare at least 3 outfits to change into. After reviewing the quote for the wedding services, we told Amin that we needed some time to make a decision. We then started to receive miscellaneous emails pressuring us to book his services at a discount. The emails were endless, and came from 2-3 different emails addresses. Some emails didn't pertain to us at all and the confusion became overwhelming. Out of frustration, as a new bride to be, I told my partner that I wasn't comfortable with booking someone who seemed so forceful and unorganized. By unorganized I mean the following. He would send repetitive emails asking us to book our consultation. However, we had already had a phone consultation weeks prior. I reached out to Amin informing him that we wouldn't be moving forward with wedding services, but we would like to continue moving forward with the free engagement session. Suddenly, the email stopped. I then reached out to see what we needed to do to schedule the free engagement shoot and how to prepare. Amin emailed me a few days later asking for dates/ times, locations and to create a vision board on Pinterest. We're not from New Orleans, so I asked for suggestions on locations, in which he provided. I did everything he asked of me and a few days later, I sent an email with dates and times as we discussed. He CONFIRMED and from that point forward there was no communication. Two weeks prior to the event, my partner reached out to Amin for additional confirmation. Amin told my partner that he never received a date, time or location from me. I forwarded the emails to Amin where he confirmed the date, time and receipt of our Pinterest board. I also told him the location (NOMA) which was his suggestion. He didn't respond to me for a few days. About a week prior to our shoot, we received an email with the date, no time, and location listed as City Park. NOMA (the museum) is located in City Park so I thought nothing of it. Realizing that the newest email didn't list the original agreed upon time, I asked if we could change it from 2pm (which is what he confirmed then said he never heard from me about a time) to 4pm. Amin confirmed and I thought we were all set. The day of, we get to City Park at the museum ( NOMA) then called him because he was no where to be found. He told me he was at Cafe Du Mondè, which is not what we discussed. Again, we aren't from the area, so it took us about 10 minutes to find his location. We pull up, and there's a huge gazebo, a playground and a lot of grassy areas. Let me not forget to mention, there were a ton of people, kids and dogs in the area. This didn't align with our agreed upon vision therefore, we weren't dressed casually and there was a current high wind advisory for that area. At that time, I told my partner that I didn't want to continue with the shoot. My partner had to walk the park and find Amin and by the time he was found, it was about 20 minutes past our shoot time. My partner asked what the mix up was and Amin stated that NOMA had to be paid for and we had to do a lot of walking because we only had 20 minutes left, since we were "late". When my partner confronted Amin about the time, he stated that we were only receiving 1 hour. I would like to add that NOMA is free on Wednesdays to anyone with a LA state license. I would also like to add that Amin never gave a clear indication that he would be anywhere else besides NOMA which is in City Park. Amin didn't communicate his location or that he wouldn't be meeting us at NOMA until we called him because we couldn't find him at NOMA. We are out of hundreds of dollars in preparation for this shoot and now we have to find someone else at the last minute. Amin is unorganized, rude, lacks communication in the areas that are relevant and specific to his clients (too many unnecessary automated emails), inconsiderate, irresponsible and lacks compassion. Everyone who gave Amin a 1 star review and labeled him as a scammer has been absolutely correct and I wish I would've read the reviews prior to communicating with him.

A boudoir session is a very personal experience for the person being photographed and Emily does not take that lightly.

Her guidance with posing and constant " hype you up" encouragement throughout the session really does boost confidence and makes you feel beautiful. Her is work is stunning because she doesn't just take pictures , she captures your beauty, your emotions, and your moments of "I can't believe that's actually me". I love having my photos to look at when I'm feeling discouraged and not so confident in myself to be reminded of how confident, beautiful, and empowered I felt during the session and when I viewed my pictures for the first time. Five starts just isn't enough to rate my entire experience.

The photoshoot took place in their studio, and the ambiance, lighting, and room decor created a setting that made the pictures tell a thousand stories. It was a pleasure working with such an amazing team. Our photographer, Jeff, and our visionary, Heather, perfectly complemented each other, combining their ideas with ours to bring our vision to life. The entire experience was effortless and enjoyable. The flowers, the food, the music, and even a drink to help us relax all contributed to making our dream come true. They were incredibly professional and excel at capturing moments that we will cherish forever. If you're looking to take some stunning, intimate photos, I highly recommend them. They make you feel great and capture the best of you. I can't wait to return for another boudoir shoot!

The photo gallery online is gorgeous and captivating, so without question we contacted Heather and Jeff. My husband and I are not from New Orleans but it's a city we love and visit frequently, so we built our trip around the photoshoot that we scheduled. The minute we entered the studio, we were immediately put at ease with their warm and welcoming approach to a complete "out of our comfort zone" experience. The atmosphere Heather and Jeff create is relaxed yet professional and I felt like I was in safe hands the entire time. Jeff's photography skills are truly top-notch. He has an incredible eye for detail and was able to capture moments that made me feel beautiful, sexy and empowered. He took the time to guide me through each pose, making sure everything looked just right, while also putting my insecurities at ease. Heather, meanwhile, was amazing with styling and helping me with my wardrobe choices. She knew exactly what would highlight my best features and went above and beyond picking out all of the right looks! The whole experience was so amazing for my husband and I. It allowed us to showcase our love for one another in a sexy artistic way. The final photos are absolutely stunning and I couldn't be happier with the results. Heather and Jeff took my husband and I's vision and knocked it out of the park. I feel more confident than ever and I know I will treasure these photos for many years to come. If you're thinking about a boudoir session, I 5000% recommend Heather and Jeff at Nue Orleans Boudoir. They are truly a dream team and their passion for what they do shines through in every shot. I look forward to having them do another shoot for my husband and I in the future.
