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 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.

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.

Marianne and Steve at The Red M Studio are phenomenal. My wife and I had individual and couples'…read moreportraits done, and these are truly the best photographs we've ever had. As an advanced amateur photographer, I was impressed by their lighting, posing, and attention to detail. They listen, they guide, and they make the entire experience enjoyable. Absolutely top‑tier portrait work.

We cannot say enough good things about Red M Studio. From start to finish, working with Marianne &…read moreSteve was an incredible experience, and hiring them was one of the best decisions we made for our New Orleans "not a wedding" wedding. I found Red M Studio through a Reddit recommendation from another couple who loved their photos, and after seeing their work, I immediately understood why. We wanted to support a small business, loved their aesthetic, and knew we needed professionals who could capture something intimate and nontraditional without turning it into a production. Leading up to the day, Marianne & Steve were incredibly organized and thoughtful. We had both a phone call and a Zoom meeting where they walked through every detail to make sure nothing was missed. They even used Google Maps to virtually walk us through the French Quarter and talk through locations and timing. That level of preparation made us feel completely at ease. Our original plan was to elope, but as anyone who tries to elope in New Orleans learns, that rarely stays small. What unfolded was a joyful, intimate gathering we lovingly called our "not a wedding." Marianne & Steve captured every part of it beautifully, from exchanging vows privately in our hotel suite, to wandering the French Quarter on Halloween night, stopping at the Carousel Bar, befriending a very determined French Quarter cat, and ending the evening with a private dinner at Arnaud's surrounded by our favorite people. They truly understood the assignment. The photos feel authentic, emotional, and perfectly us. Nothing felt staged or forced, and we never once felt uncomfortable or overly "on display." The final gallery tells the story of the day exactly as it was: warm, a little spooky, deeply personal, and full of love. If you're getting married in New Orleans and want photographers who are professional, intuitive, and genuinely invested in telling your story, Red M Studio is exceptional. We will treasure these photos forever.

Terrible Communication and Unfulfilled Order 1 star…read more I had a frustrating experience with Davillier Photography. I placed an order on July 23, 2024, and waited weeks without any updates. I tried calling multiple times to follow up, but no one responded. When I finally got through in August because they reached out me by phone after several emails, they explained the lack of communication was due to an issue with their automated email system. But, by then, I felt I had been defrauded -- there was zero communication, and no product or service had been rendered. Prior this call, I decided not to proceed with my order which was stated in writing to the company and disputed the charge with my bank. I explained this to them in detail when finally getting a call by their owner, yet somehow they still told my bank that the purchase was valid, even though I received nothing. This charge still remains on my account while the company is refuting having received compensation. As of today, October 28, 2024, I have not received a refund and while I do not want any - nor have I received products or services. Terrible experience all around. I would definitely not recommend doing business with this company.

Photos might have been the only "traditional" thing we did, but they were important to me and I am so very glad we found Kathleen! We got married on what must have been the hottest day of the year here in New Orleans and somehow Kathleen managed to make it look like no one was melting! We all met up in Jackson Square and she got our photographs with landmarks as well as street performers, all while letting us dodge in and out of various bars and businesses to take cool-down breaks. She was an absolute joy to work with, the pictures are absolutely stunning and I couldn't be happier with them! She charges a fraction of the average rate, has such cute and unique posing ideas and even better, instead of paying a fortune for prints, she sent us 2 CDs of the (retouched) images and we can print them at will! Both my husband and I have experience modeling and are no stranger to the camera, so when we say that Kathleen is great to work with, it holds water! I'm not sure what the next thing I'll need a photographer for, but whatever it happens to be, I'm calling Kathleen!

She graciously accommodated our request (she doesn't specifically list engagement shoots in her pricing sheet), and even cancelled a personal appointment to keep the shoot when there was a threat of rain at the original time we agreed on. We had a blast the whole time, and she even added an additional ten minutes (for free!) to the shoot because of the fun we were all having. The pictures turned out amazing. She has a great eye and gives good direction. I'd recommend her to anyone! Thanks Kathleen!

She was extremely generous with her time and stayed extra hours to capture every moment. The pictures she captured exemplified the true joy of our rehearsal and our wedding. We are so lucky to have found Paige and will continue to use her for any photography needs.
