  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Lake Charles, LA

Hello, and thank you so much for taking the time to consider MadHart for such a special time in your lives! There are a lot of words I could use to describe me as a person, as well as an artist. Passionate, driven, dependable, hardworking yet delicate, innovative, & spontaneous are a few. But the most important thing everyone should know about me and my art is that, in the core of it all, breaths unconditional love. It is the driving force of my inspiration. To watch something I create bring so much joy to others fuels my fire. It is YOU I do what I do for.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the chance to work with Mad Hart Productions for a wedding. Being a wedding DJ, I have the chance to work with several photographers. Maddy was very easy to talk to and communicate with throughout the night. I had the chance to see some of the pictures from the wedding and they were very nice. Definitely give them a call.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace shot our engagement and wedding and was so easy to work with! She was so flexible and worked hard to make sure my husband and I didn’t feel too awkward taking professional photographs for the the first time. Her photo style and editing is beautiful and true and we received so many complements for our engagement shoot. 12/10 would recommend!

Adam Falgout Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,650
  • Serves Lake Charles, LA

Wedding Photography is so Satisfying! I refer to my style of shooting as “the sniper”. People often tell me when they see a photo pop up on the screen right after I take it… “I never even saw you take that!” That’s the whole idea behind capturing truly genuine and candid moments that can’t be recreated… It’s about being sneaky, having experience and hustling your A$$ off to be in the right place at the right time… and I have so much fun doing it! I’m a proud father of 5 sons and a daughter (she’s the youngest)! I’ve shot over 550 weddings in 14+ years.

We loved working with Adam! Adam had no problem taking charge and getting everything done that we wanted. He was professional, a great communicator, fun, and also offered a very fair price. The live photo streaming was also a huge hit with all of our guests! He also gave all the guests a link to be able to see our photos after they were edited! Adam was not only an awesome photographer but pinned all the groomsmen's boutonnieres and was the only one to successfully get my veil to stay in! Throughout the night he also helped to rescue us from the crowds and go above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Overall, Adam is a good Christian man pursuing his faith and it was a great blessing to have him to celebrate with us! If we could give him a 10/5 we would!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

He is reasonable, experienced and his end results do all the talking for him. His images captured everything that many use editing gadgets to portray.

I am the owner of Natalie Paige Productions. I am a lover of natural light and bright, bold colors. Dark & moody and sunsets are a new passion of mine, so if you're looking for your photos to have a "wow" factor, I'm your girl.

From the first time I sent Natalie a message, she was very quick to respond. We worked out some of the details in my engagement photos, and she even suggested we wait a little bit longer since we wanted pictures around bluebonnets, and they typically come in early March. I really appreciated that she didn't want to rush us, and truly wanted the best pictures for us. During the day of the engagement pictures, I came from work and was running late, and then gave Natalie the wrong address to the location. She was so understanding throughout this whole process. When we took the pictures, we felt comfortable and it was like taking pictures with an old friend of ours. She was so sweet and professional and even did fantastic with our dog that was taking pictures with us also. Last thing I'll mention, she was really quick in sending us the pictures! Would 10/10 recommend her and work with her again!

I’m Annie, a wedding photographer with a passion for capturing love stories in their most authentic and artistic forms. Based in East Texas, I focus on the intimate, unscripted moments that truly reflect your connection—the moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours. I believe your photos should be more than just images; they should be timeless pieces of art that transport you back to the emotions of your day. With a limited number of weddings each year, I ensure every couple receives my full attention. Available wherever your love story takes us.

Awarded Best of Zola
TLDR: I could not have picked a better photographer and I truly believe that Annie would be perfect for absolutely anyone. Her energy is infectious in a way that really brings up your excitement levels but also keeps your anxiety down. My husband is very introverted and was really worried about photos, but she kept him comfortable and in his element in a way I truly don’t believe anyone else would have. As for myself, I felt beautiful and gorgeous the entire time because of her and her partner. For the work she did and the amount of effort she puts into our photos, I believe her prices are incredibly fair. If anything, she’s undercutting herself. I will absolutely be recommending Annie to anyone and everyone. Now for the longer part of the review! We got married on May 30th, 2024 and we were doing our wedding a little differently. Instead of doing private vows or doing our vows at the ceremony, we did our vows at our rehearsal dinner. That is also when we allowed friends and family to come up and say something. The reason we did this route is because my husband is introverted and not a public speaker while I am the complete opposite. He also really wanted to see my walk down the aisle as our first look instead of a private look. Me, on the other hand, wanted at least our family and close friends to witness our vows. So we compromised! On top of it being two separate days, I was very adamant that I wanted two photographers along with wanting to capture the little things, such as my grandparents holding hands or our friends doing silly things at a table. I don’t mind staged photos, but I really wanted more natural focused shots. It was surprisingly difficult to find someone who was able to both days and within our price range. When we stumbled upon Annie, it felt like fate. She was so easy to figure things out with. Instead of an engagement photo session, she was happy to do our rehearsal dinner instead. She was there for any questions I had and the forms she had us fill out were super detailed! It really helped getting our thoughts together and deciding what was most important for our wedding. The day before the wedding, she vibed so well with everyone at the rehearsal dinner. She even got perfect photos of our dogs, who are honestly like our children. The day of the wedding, Annie and her second photographer (who I’ve completely blanked on the name, my fault for taking so long to write a review!) were amazing. Every single one of our friends had compliments for them and just LOVED their energy. Annie kept me calm and collected while the second was fully invested in my husband. I don’t think the wedding would have gone as smoothly without those two. The photos I received back? Better than I could ever dream of. Truly. They got beautiful shots of my grandparents dancing, my dad talking to one of his nephews, his mom talking with his brother. Just candid shots that looked real and natural. I am unbelievably so happy with Annie and the work she put in for us. Photographs are one of the most important things for me at our wedding and she truly blew it out of the park.We thank her for all her work from the bottom of our hearts and will always cherish the memories she gave us.

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits.

Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

My heart has always been one of ROMANCE and all things LOVE! Emotions, Connection, and Love literally light me up inside, I truly and wholeheartedly believe between my long talks with God and my own marriage that's what brought me to working with couples - whether it’s date nights, engagements, elopements, weddings, or “just because” sessions - it is all a dream come true for me.

Courtney is by far one of the easiest photographers we have ever worked with! She was so personable, and we felt like we had known her for years. She has SO many neat ideas, and the pictures she grabs are not just photos but memories! You can look at EVERY picture and feel the emotion and it’s a moment captured forever. There’s no awkward posing/standing, but her personality is what makes her abilities shine. Her pricing was SO reasonable and is able to work with any budget! The turn around was so much sooner than I expected!

Howdy! I’m Jillian Brown, a Wedding & Elopement Photographer based in Denver, Colorado with a love for the outdoors and a focus on real love stories. I’ve had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember (shout out to my dad) and capturing those little moments that almost slip away is my favorite thing in the world. I can’t wait to hear your story!

Jill was absolutely amazing to work with for both our engagement session and wedding day. She did an incredible job making us feel comfortable in front of the camera, even though we were a bit camera shy. Her shots perfectly captured the memories we were making and the love we have for each other. She effortlessly finds the most beautiful, candid moments. We can’t stop looking at our pictures. Would definitely recommend for your special day!

Hi, My name is Kaylan Ivy and I'm a visionary. I thrive in the most creative settings and enjoy making others dreams a reality. My passion for photography and videography started when I was working in the ministry many years ago. When you work at a church you are often required to wear many hats. One of my hats was filming video announcements and making camp videos for youth and children's church. Over the years my talent grew, my skillset became stronger and I soon felt confident enough to start my own business.

Kaylan is so easy to work with. Her attention to detail and bubbly personality make her a dream to work with. She’ll make you feel like you’ve been friends forever and her work is top notch. Could not be happier!

Graceful Shutter Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Their communication was excellent - fast, helpful responses to all our questions during planning. On the big day, they helped keep everything on schedule while still being flexible to capture special moments. The photos turned out beautifully, with great quality and a quick delivery time after the wedding. Amanda was so genuine, understanding, and fun to have around. She had creative ideas for activities and photo ops that really made our day special and captured the emotions perfectly. I'd highly recommend Graceful Shutter to any engaged couple looking for not just a photographer but a helpful, supportive partner in making sure your wedding memories are captured wonderfully.

Hey there! We are David & Kirstin Hebert, a husband and wife team who are living our dream. Being behind the camera gives us a feeling that no other career can. We have been sharing life for 20 years and now share the fun with two amazing kidos, Evan and Adriana. What more could we ask for? Life is good! We love life. We love family. We love friendships. We love adventure. We love people. We love animals. We love travel. We love cameras. We love food. We love nature. We love smiles. We love LOVE! And we love capturing all of it! We are super laid-back and will make sure that your experience in these special days is our number one priority!

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with DK Hebert! We first met them when taking our engagement photos. They met us for a couple of drinks first to get to know us and learn what our expectations were and then we started the shoot. Kirstin was great at directing at us and making us feel at ease in front of the camera and David had a lot of creative ideas so that our shoot didn’t come out looking too cookie cutter or posed. We were looking for photographers in Louisiana who knew how to take photos of brown skin and edit it as well without making us look too orange or making our skin appear lighter. We were amazed with the photos that came back. It looked like a work of art. We shot for almost four hours with an outfit change and David and Kirstin basically took photos the entire time as we walked around downtown Baton Rouge and the state Capitol grounds— so we had a ton to choose from. Seeing our engagement photos really helped us trust them and be excited for our wedding photos. They turned out better than we could imagine. We no longer live in Louisiana but want to use their services again in the future and will travel to do so! I recommend them to any newly engaged couple or family who wants to update their photo albums. We also got a few sneak peeks back within a couple of days after our wedding and the entire album was sent to us about a month or so after. Kirstin would also send me her favorites as they were editing. The constant communication was wonderful. 10/10 recommend!

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

I’ve been doing photography since 2012. There has definitely been a lot of growth and sold cameras through out the years. I’m 100% self taught and I believe that shows in my work. I’m a learn by doing type person. I’m an introvert and somewhat reserved, but I can guarantee I will make some stupid joke that will make you laugh. I enjoy natural light and playing with the sun. I’m a big fan of the unconventional photos that most photographers say no to. I love love. It doesn’t matter who you are, who you love, I want to tell your love story.

Cece and her husband Ben from Ringuette Photo Co. were truly wonderful to work with! She was so communicative and was always available to answer any questions. They suggested the most perfect place to take my bridals and the photos turned out AMAZING! We had a blast with them and can't wait to see our wedding day photos!

Five years ago, I was planning my own wedding and wanting a photographer I was compatible with and who could capture me and my husband without feeling terribly awkward. I found that! When the night was over, I told Albert, "I'm so glad we're married." I could sigh knowing those moments I would soon forget would be captured and documented. At AlesiaKim and Co, that's our values. We are a wedding planning, photography, and videographer team that are intentional about orchestrating and capturing real authentic emotions and smiles so those memories can be preserved for future generations.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3
