Javonni’s First Birthday Photos 🤍🖤

This was a last minute birthday photoshoot booked by Jovonni’s God mother as a gift to her mom! 🥹 I love, love, love when people book photography sessions as a gift because it’s such a timeless gift, you’ll receive an unforgettable photo session and timeless images! 🥰

Since we didn’t have time to order props we asked the client to send both of the babies outfits and we would come up with a nice coordinated set. Once I seen the white dress I went to the same day as the session to get a grey satin fabric and clear diamonds. We also brought the column prop for photos with her sister so that she would have something to sit on that complimented the set. ✨

Javonni did great for her very first photoshoot! The diamonds were distracting enough for her to get some nice candid shots. We love it when the babies can’t walk just yet because it’s actually easier to get stable shots lol!

We love the way that these images came out, they’re so gorgeous! This session was done in one hour! We did the starter mini session at $275 and added on time($50 for 30 minutes) to document both outfits. We do need time to take down the set and put up another one which could take 10-15 minutes so extra time will be needed when doing a custom session. ✨

Taylor & Renaldo’s Engagement Photo Shoot 💍

When Taylor and Renaldo contacted us for their engagement shoot, we were happy to help them capture their love story in the most beautiful locations New Orleans has to offer. We started at City Park to complement their Princess and the Frog theme, and the enchanting scenery provided the perfect backdrop. 🌳

Next, we headed to A.L. Davis Park to capture some photos among the trees and in front of the surrounding graffiti. Their outfits blended seamlessly with the vibrant surroundings, and the attention to detail in their coordination was absolutely stunning! ✨

To add a personal touch, we concluded the shoot at First African Baptist Church, right next to where Renaldo grew up. This special location added depth and meaning to their photos, highlighting their journey together. ❤️

Taylor and Renaldo were an absolute pleasure to work with. Their chemistry shined through every shot, making our job so enjoyable.

Thank you both for choosing us to capture your beautiful engagement! We had an amazing time working with you and are so grateful for the opportunity.

🤎Rashawn Maternity Session 🤎

We love the way RaShawn‘s maternity pictures came out, the minimalist style is super cute! We only used pampas grass, a vase, and a canvas paint backdrop.The canvas backdrop adds texture to the images and the size of it is perfect! ✨

We really enjoyed the session because RaShawn is very easy to work with, a true pleasure! Thank you again for allowing us to document your first maternity photo shoot and we are wishing you the best journey in motherhood ! ✨

JOY! 🥹♥️

You were the VALEDICTORIAN in high school (2015) and to follow you have not only one but FOUR masters degrees!! You’ve done so much to make yourself and your family proud and you deserve all the praise!!

Congratulations again on officially becoming Ms.Joi Turner, MPH, PA! You’ve got beauty and brains and you deserve to be celebrated!!🥰👏🏽🥂🍾

Ashley & Zoi Mommy & Me Session 🤍✨

We have been working with these two since 2019 and every session has been uniquely beautiful! 🥰

For Zoi’s 8th birthday she decided that she wanted to do a mommy and me sessions instead of her usual solo portrait birthday session. Of course we were down and decided to do something we haven’t already done! We went with “The Gallery on Magazine” which is an indoor/outdoor venue that makes a great backdrop for your photos. I love the modern take on the vintage aesthetic! This venue has a $100 per 30 minute fee! ✨

This year Zoi was so excited for her photos and really brought the energy! I absolutely love seeing her growth infront of the camera, my little unpaid model lol!! 😆

Their matching mommy & me dresses were soooo gorgeous, even more gorgeous in person! Shoutout to for making these gorgeous gowns!! I love their updo hairstyles by as well, they are so gorgeous! 🥰

I absolutely LOVE the way my sisters foil photoshoot came out! I’m so proud of her growth in front of the camera and confidence over all! 🥰

We decided to do a blue and metallic color pallet for these, which compliments her brand colors! I styled her in a PrettyLittleThing two piece blue metallic set with clear raindrop embellishments! Of course to match I paired it with a metallic IT GIRL purse from REVOLVE and gorgeous metallic pumps from Jessica Simpson Style! The jewelry was also in the shape of a pear to match the embellishments! 💎

Deciding on hair was the hardest part because there are soooo many styles that can compliment this look! 😭 We decided to go with past the knee length box braids which were beautifully done by .stylez ! Of course we went with for makeup because she don’t ever miss for a celebrity glam!!💙

My favorite thing about this shoot is the versatility in her poses! I really enjoy challenging myself and clients to create an album full of variety! You can stand, sit, squat, hold props, and switch up hair and attire to give your photos versatility and this album proves it!

Thanks again for being a great muse for my expression! EVERYTHING turned out better than I imagined! 🫶🏽

❤️🔥Jazmyne’s Foil Photoshoot 🔥❤️

Jazmyne wanted to a solo portrait session that showcases her outside of being a mom, partner , and worker. I sent her three different theme ideas and she decided on the foil Photoshoot. 🥰

Once we picked the type of session I styled her in a two piece set metallic pant set paired with knee high red leather boots! 😮‍💨

I thought the perfect hairstyle to do on her would be two space buns but with spikes in some photos. I LOVE how her hair came out and truly happy to showcase all of my talents through this session. 🫶🏽

🖤❤️Xade’s Mickey Mouse 1st Birthday Photoshoot ❤️🖤

We decided to do a outdoor Mickey Mouse themed photo session for our client since his party theme is Mickey Mouse! This is our very first time doing this theme in the original colors, we usually would do Mickey Safari since our sessions are outdoors 99% of the time.

I looked online for an outfit that I didn’t see many kids wearing for their Mickey Mouse Photoshoot and found this cute Mickey Mouse overall with a matching hat on Amazon, too cute!! 😍

🔻Props Used For This Session 🔻

* White Polyester Sheet Backdrop
* Custom ONE Mickey Mouse Letters
* Red Bin
* ONE Mickey banner
* Mickey Confetti

The props were all from Amazon and the seat was thrifted and spray painted red for this session.

We had fun although the weather was crazy!! It’s not that often that we bring our backdrop stand outside but the day we choose to it was so windy!! Even with the wind having props flying all over the place the images came out so good! This is the epitome of a session with images that don’t look anything like the actual experience.

Xade was so active during the session it was hilarious watching him move around so quickly while trying to get some staged and candid shots. We love the overall turnout of these images!! 🥰❤️

Thanks again for booking with us Justice! ❣️

🍃💙Cohen’s 3rd Birthday💙🍃

We have been documenting Cohen since he was only a few months old! I remember him in his little suit at the Roosevelt hotel in 2020! We’ve now done over three sessions with them since then! 🥰

Cohen is a little man, intelligent, curious, and so so cute!! This year we went with a Easter theme due to his birthday being on Easter this year! Holli(his mom) and I had a few themes and outfits to work with but the all blue featuring their pet bunny won this year!🐇🤍

As y’all know we scoot locations and props specifically for our clients so we used this blue background in a parking lot, a blue basket from Michaels Stores and blue eggs from T.J.Maxx to pull it all together! ✨

Let me know what y’all think 🥰😍

💗🍃Johnetha & Jamie Intimate Wedding In New Orleans at The Free People of Color Museum 💗🍃

We have been working with these two love birds since 2019 which is when we did their engagement session. We then did their courthouse ceremony in 2020 due to COVID 19. Now here we are in 2023 and I just love these two beautiful people together, the joy that they bring each other is so beautiful to witness! 💕

Their intimate wedding was so beautiful and laid back full of people that truly love and support them! The weather was absolutely gorgeous on their wedding day as well which made their photos really POP!

🎄💙The Morris Family In Home Holiday Portrait Session 🎄💙

Verella and Louis booked with us when they were living in Chicago a few years ago and we instantly connected! Their love for each other is obvious plus they are an absolutely gorgeous couple and family! 🙂

They ended up moving to New Orleans and we got to do their maternity photos, new born photos, and now their 2022 holiday photos with the gorgeous twins, Stone and Braulio and the sweetest dog “blue”. 💙

We absolutely love working with them, they are so thoughtful and sweet! Their condo made a gorgeous backdrop for they holiday portraits this year!

We are finally using off camera flash for some of our low light indoor session and starting to become huge fans of the flash but no flash look!

Let me know what y’all think 🥰

🖤❤️Tansheba & Siah Holiday Mommy and Me 🖤❤️

We have been working with these two for 4 years now and they always look so cute!! As usual we find the perfect attire and match up the locations with it! We are loving this velvet look! We went with a modern holiday mommy and me at the mixing multiple styles of photography into one session. 🔥

I especially love how we were able to capture a mom and son mommy and me with so much variety! Since Siah is getting older we incorporated more separated shots while still capturing the traditional mommy and me vibes.
Siah has grown up so much, he was able to pull off all of the poses. One of my favorite things was playing with capturing blurry photos, it’s a pretty cool trend that I like! Anyways…let me know what y’all think of these 🥰😍

LUXURY HOLIDAY MATERNITY PHOTOS 🧡🌲

REEL VERSION- https://www.instagram.com/reel/ClZ-jUeMsX3/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Nyla’s maternity session is literally GORGEOUS right! 🥰🔥

We’ve already worked with Nyla for her daughter Kaia six month and first year photos but never actually photographed her family. What I love about maternity sessions with the whole family is how the session can be broken up into a mommy and me, dad and me, couple portraits, family portraits, and solo portraits! That’s how I break all of our family shoots down! 🙂

Nyla let me know that she’s big on neutrals after I suggested a fall themed color pallet to her and neutrals fit right on in that color palette 🙂! Of course we texted back and forth about attire and decided to go with the burnt orange suit for Raheem and a cream dress for Kaia. I absolutely LOVE what she was able to do with Nyla’s maternity dress! Nyla gave her full creative control and she made her a gorgeous, gorgeous maternity dress !☺️🤍

We originally had two other location options but I had been waiting for the right client (as in someone who would let us have full creative control over the session) to inquire and be willing to commute to this green house. Nyla let me know she was okay with paying the permit fee, commuting to the location, and releasing creative control. Travel is 0.50 cents per mile so this location is $105 for us to travel to.

This green house is amazing for my style of work, very light and airy vibes with pops of color! WIN WIN 🫶🏽

🤎Raven & Rylie Mommy & Me Maternity Session 🤎

We actually worked with these two for their first mommy and me session In 2020 and Rylie was a star then and still is now! When we got there she ran up to me and gave me a hug as if she remembered me from the first session lol!! too cute 🙂

It was important for this session to be filled with fun and joy and we made sure of that! The photos came out sooo pretty!! Thanks again for booking with us! 🥰

🤎Taylor & Enzo’s Breastfeeding Mommy & Me Session 🧡😍🔥

I absolutely LOVED doing this breast feeding mommy and me session. Taylor let me style them(her amazing mom found his shirt) and pick the location. 🥰✨

They are such a easy and fun duo, both have amazing smiles and energy!! Enzo literally loves to smile! 😍

This session was done at Fontainebleau State Park and was used to give more of a fall/winter look in the photos. I absolutely LOVE how they came out! 🥰🥰

The Carpenters Couple Portraits 🔥😍

Drew & Kyle really outdid themselves for these, their resting face is ON! OKAY 🥵

When Hurricane Ida first hit and I begin to market for Houston photo shoots, I absolutely KNEW they would be on my schedule because they’ve always loved and supported us. Drew said she wanted to do some photos like the baddest couples I be posting since their photos are usually upbeat and smiley. Of course I’m like “say less 😊🤪”! I searched around and found Glassell School of Art and knew it was the PERFECT spot for their session, wouldn’t you agree ? 😍🔥
