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.

“Isaac did a wonderful job photographing our backyard wedding. He did a brilliant job capturing my visions as well as brought ideas of his own. We are very grateful we were able to book Isaac for our wedding, he truly immortalized the day and we have so many beautiful photos to reflect on for the rest of our lives.”

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.

Hi, I’m Shelby, a wedding & elopement photographer with a love for travel and a sparkly, lively personality. I’ve had the privilege of working with couples across various destinations, bringing my energy and passion to every celebration. Raised in New Orleans, and now based out of Alabama, I service multiple southern regions. I believe in creating a genuine connection with my couples, making them feel relaxed, heard, and truly seen on their big day. Weddings & Elopements can be chaotic, but I’m here to guide you through every moment—from the first look to the final dance—capturing all the love, joy, and raw emotion in between.

“***LONG REVIEW! Not Sorry! The photos I have of our day are far better than I could have imagined and Shelby was the best to work with. It is not just the amount or the quality of the photos you get with Shelby, but her customer service is above and beyond. She met with me in person 3 times to help settle my nerves and I couldn't have been more grateful. Shelby was so understanding and no vision I had was too outlandish or too much trouble. She communicated in a transparent, deliberate way, but was never pushy or disrespectful. I interviewed multiple photographers and truly, we just meshed well together. Shelby is unique and her sparkle really shines during the chaos, handling it like a BOSS! We had a military wedding and let me tell you, she handled it. I learned that she also only takes 3-4 weddings a month to really prioritize her clients and let me tell you, it shows so much! She got us sneak peaks within a week and the full gallery was delivered in 4 weeks. Look, I could have easily been classified as an "intense" bride and Shelby reassured me all day and reminded me that I was allowed to enjoy my day. Truly, I didn't just hire a photographer that day, I hired a trusted friend and we have already planned our 5 year anniversary photos in Italy with her. I know this review is a lot, but if you are looking for a photographer (that essentially has the 2nd MOST IMPORTANT role on your wedding day), that will give you more than a camera click and congratulations email, then SHELBY IS YOUR GIRL!!! Just talk to her! She shoots you straight and can help so much! Also, last thing, she respected our privacy. Our gallery was delivered via USB because we can't have personal photos of my husband on the internet. You will also not see them anywhere on her socials or website and they were not shared with other vendors, per our request. Yes, military family here. We trust her and you can too.”

I love meeting new people and getting creative with a camera in my hands. Photography just so happened to fall into my lap God. I am also a college graduate from University of Louisiana at Lafayette with bachelors degree in finance. I know, way off from Photography, lol! I’ve now been photographing for 7 years. I love, LOVE on camera!

“Kayla Lazard Photography is an incredible wedding photographer that I would highly recommend to any couple. From the moment we first spoke, Kayla's open communication style and ability to really listen and guide us made us feel so at ease. She has an incredible talent for bringing visions to life, and the quality of her work is truly top-tier. In fact, her photography is so amazing that I think she should be shooting with celebrities and at all the red carpet events! After seeing my engagement photos, my bridesmaids underestimated her work by believing she was a white girl…they were even waiting in anticipation to see Kayla's work from my wedding day. And she did not disappoint - Kayla kept me calm and composed throughout the day, never forcing me to pose in any way just to get the job done. You can tell she puts so much love, thought, and artistry into every image. Kayla also has great rapport with the other vendors, ensuring we were all working together seamlessly as one team. I would highly recommend booking Kayla Lazard Photography as soon as possible - she is in very high demand, so be sure to reserve her for your wedding day, engagement session, and any other photography needs all at once to ensure you don't miss out. She is truly the dopest!”

I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream.

“I don’t know what we would do without Bobbie Anne. We first met her when we booked some family photos. We went on to book her for our engagement photos and our wedding. My sister has used her for family photos. And now my brother and sister in law used her for their wedding! Between Bobbie Anne and now Nick, these two couldn’t be a better pair both in life and at work. They are so much fun to work with and truly take the most incredible photos. They will forever and always be our go to photographers.”
