Philip + Meredith: New Orleans Engagement

Kristy — Tue, 28 Feb 2012 16:37:28 +0000

This was a very special engagement session because the groom is my brother! I’m so happy for him and just delighted to welcome Meredith to our family! Despite the freezing temperature and wind, we braved the French Quarter and City Park one Sunday morning and rewarded ourselves with beignets after. We spent a good deal of the session by Preservation Hall because of the couple’s love of music. I can’t wait for their wedding in November, and I’m so glad I won’t be photographing it! It will be nice to be a guest for a change. :)

Missy + Phil: New Orleans City Park Engagement

Here’s part one of my week with Missy and Phil! We did their engagement session a few days before their wedding in City Park. You can never go wrong ending a shoot with canolis at Angelo Brocato’s!

Kristi + Cale: New Orleans City Park Engagement

Kristy — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 18:37:31 +0000

Awhile back I got to photograph Kristi and her beau Cale in a really fun and creative engagement session at their home in New Orleans and in City Park. The couple thought up several different stories to enact for the camera making it more like an editorial fashion shoot than a typical engagement session! But I can tell by the way they created the stories, assembled clothing, and props, they are truly a great team! And that is what marriage is all about. :) And now I also know that a cupcake maker exists!

I know Kristi from way back. Her parents lived across the street from my grandmother, so I’m sure our first meeting was as babies! (And my Granny says Kristi’s mom liked my name, so perhaps, I was her name inspiration? Then again, there are lots of Christy, Kristy, Kristi, and Kristies etc out there :) We met again in college when we both joined the same sorority. Of course I’m really excited to be a part of Kristi’s wedding to Cale in October!

Gorgeous sunrise, fun engagement shoot and an order of beignets to top it all off! I should wake-up early more often…….

Annalise + Scott: Brooklyn Engagement Session

Kristy — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 01:37:51 +0000

I had such a great time with Annalise and Scott for their engagement shoot in DUMBO, Vinegar Hill and the Brooklyn Bridge. We even had a celebrity sighting! They are getting married in New Orleans in March, but live in Brooklyn, so just the perfect couple for me!

Scott recognized actress Beth Grant on the right, as we left the bridge. She was kind enough to take a picture with us. Such a New York moment….. :)

Katie + Sean: Audubon Park Engagement Session

Kristy — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 00:24:24 +0000

Had a great time with Katie and Sean in Audubon Park for their engagement shoot! It was such a perfect evening, and they are truly an adorable couple. I know it will be a fantastic wedding come May 22!

Engagement Photo Shoot in Central Park

Kristy — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 03:53:32 +0000

Had a great time this past Friday night with Andrea and Jim on a gorgeous summer night in Central Park. We started near the Grand Army Plaza entrance and wound our way to Belvedere Castle, then promptly got a little lost in the ramble. Great night, great city, great company!
