Twirl has been our go-to for portraits for nearly two decades, with photos of everyone from babies…read moreto the old folks. The photographer behind Twirl always suggests an excellent location and timing so you get magical photos. No surprise there: some of the historic photos published in the Times Picayune from the Katrina era were hers. Ditto some actors' head shots you may see in posters and programs for shows around town. She's even got a Pulitzer to show for it (the journalism, not the head shots). But enough about her background. You'll start with a dialogue defining what you want to come out of your session. Then when the time (and light) is right, meet up with Jenn for a dynamic photo session with a mix of carefully posed compositions and some carefree, "just look like you're running to the ice cream truck!" shots. It's busy but a lot of fun. Out of all that, expect some good choices for your album.

Jennifer recently photographed my headshots. I knew I needed new portraits of myself, but I was…read moredreading it because I hate being in front of the camera. Jennifer quickly assured me that it would be painless, and she was absolutely right. She coached me through the whole session made me laugh, and it felt like I was actually working with a friend. This was my first experience of actually enjoying being in front of the camera. I look like a better version of myself without it looking stiff or retouched. If you are looking for an easy stress-free, headshot or portrait session run to contact Jennifer she is truly amazing! Thanks again I actually really love my photos! Thanks Twirl Photography!!

Tyler is an amazing photographer. His pictures are so amazing they can easily be considered works…read moreof art. He has an eye for background and knows how to quickly adapt to dynamic situations (weather, movement, spontaneous moments, etc.) to capture still images that express the events and emotions of the moment. To top that off, Tyler is flexible and generous with his time and his skills. Most photographers will have a firm limit on session timeframe, number of locales, and number of prints that you receive as part of their service. Instead of that approach, Tyler merely set a minimum, and in each instance, exceeded that minimum and all expectations. I can't recommend him enough for any photography needs you have. He will help you plan the event, participate in the surprise, suggest locales, capture the precious moment, and exceed expectations.

I was looking for a photographer on-line and was talking to another photographer but she ended up…read morehaving a conflict. I was a little concerned but she referred me to Julie and said I would be in good hands since she used Julie to shoot her own wedding. I went to Julie's website and saw her work and felt confident we would get great pictures from our session. Julie was prompt in all of our communication and punctual for our shoot. I gave her some ideas for our group session and she was able to capture great memories for my group of friends that we willl treasure for years to come. We had a blast during our shoot around the French Quarter and she has a great eye for the perfect shot. Julie's creative use of backgrounds, colors and lighting will deliver artistic pictures that will capture true authentic moments. She got our pictures to us quickly and the cost was very reasonable for the time she spent with us and the quality of pictures which were delivered. Julie is a true artist and I recommend her fully.

I found Julie online and the rest was so easy and fun. She was easy to communicate with and totally got the style we wanted. Engagement photos can be awkward but Julie totally made us feel comfy. We took our photos at Dat Dog on Magazine (my fav!) and the surrounding neighborhood. I am so happy with how unique the photos are and couldn't be happier with my experience with Julie. Best of all, she had the photos to us in under 3 days!

Scott was amazing from the moment we first placed an inquiry. I've never been a big fan of…read moreprofessional photographers because I always felt like many photos felt/looked too staged or forced but Scott proved me wrong. Not only did every single picture turn out amazing but they all looked so naturally beautiful. He was very easy to work with, professional, and added to our celebration with nothing but positive vibes. All of my guests were beyond impressed with the amount of hustle he put into capturing our second-line. I have no hesitation recommending him to anyone looking for the best photographer; especially, with the reasonable pricing he offers. In fact, I'd be willing to fly him out to our home state of Florida just to ensure that our future pivotal moments in life get captured by the best. Thank you Scott!

AMAZING! How do I give 10 stars?…read more My team hired Yvette Pontheir of New Orleans Event Photography) to photograph a 3 day corporate event. We opted for 2 days of photography and her "green screen" selfie station. The price was reasonable and fair and I was delighted to have the contract signed. Why Yvette from the three finalists chosen for the contract? Quite simply, I found her images stunning! Once onsite Yvette and her team were prompt, professional, communicative, and they worked constantly! They were not a passive "let's see who comes up to us for a photograph" team, they were engaging and fun! They reached out to my event attendees (about 380) and made them smile, feel comfortable, and enjoy having photographs taken. My attendees LOVED Yvette and her team and yours will, too! Yvette's "eye" for composition is awe-inspiring. She captured the depth and breadth of breathtaking rooms while sharing the human element and emotion of the moment with each photo. The photos are the absolute best I have yet seen in 5 years of executing on a particular event. She captured action shots of attendees laughing and sharing cards around a table, my guests focused on and reacting to keynote speakers, and many groups of attendees happily smiling and posing together for group photos. Yvette and New Orleans Event Photography knocked it out of the park. When she smiled broadly and said, "I travel," I immediately started the math calculations to determine how many Delta points I needed to bring her to my next event. The selfie station/photo booth was a HUGE hit all throughout the 3 day conference. A guest could choose from multiple New Orleans themed backgrounds and there were a ton of fun props, from feather boas and hats to famous street signs for the guests to add to their photo. Best of all, the attendees had a full-color, New Orleans themed photo memory home in their carry-on. Yvette and team went ABOVE and BEYOND expectations. When a high level executive asked about new professional headshots, Yvette grabbed her camera, positioned the exec in great lighting, and snapped several shots. She did this multiple times for guests even though we did not have portrait photography on our contract. The value that Yvette and team bring to your event or special occasion is PHENOMENAL. 10 stars and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I was in and out in around 10 minutes, the friendliest staff you can imagine, professional set-up, reasonable fee.

I will definitely return for pictures in future.
