I call my style "lived in romance". It's romantic, playful, and raw all at the same time. I focus on moments over things and prioritize real over the contrived. I believe a photograph should make you feel something deep in your soul. Take a look at recent weddings.
"I was more picky about choosing a photographer than any other vendor and I can say that we chose the right one 100%, without a doubt! You are the best of the best and we are so thankful for the time you've invested in us and in our photos! They are so perfect!"
Emma & Jerry
“We couldn't be happier with Clover. It was truly an elegant experience from start to finish. We were treated like royalty.”
aria & declan
“Our pictures from Clover are breathtaking. I still can't believe that's actually us. What an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime experience”

Although my main focus is weddings, I like to fill my calendar with family, boudoir, maternity, and portraits sessions in the off season.
Do you shoot more than weddings?
Since no two weddings are exactly the same, I offer custom pricing for each client. Wedding pricing starts at $2,500 for 4 hours.
What is the price point?
Most of my clients book 1 year or more in advance. About 10% book 6-9 months before their wedding day.
When Should I Book?
Do you travel within the US?
Absolutely! Although I am a New Orleans wedding photographer, I shoot many destination weddings each year and love photographing out of the country as well.
What's your photographic specialty?
I specialize in weddings, engagements, bridals, elopements, and boudoir.
What Is Your Photography style?
I focus on images that are true to color and on the brighter side. I want to show your day just how it was without heavy-handed editing.
Do you shoot film or digital?
For weddings I will typically shoot a few rolls of film. With engagement or bridal sessions I will sometimes do about half the session on film and the rest on digital.
Do You Photograph Proposals?
New Orleans proposals are one of my favorite things to photograph. I even help plan them. Contact for details!
How many Weddings to You accept per year?
15. It's all about the client experience. I want my couples to have a great time working with me. Limiting the number of weddings I accept helps me give them an unforgettable experience.
