I had the pleasure of photographing this sharp-dressed couple on a beautiful afternoon in the French Quarter. Their wedding is coming up in November at the Elms Mansion, and I’m looking forward to it!

This wonderful couple was to have been wed at Jackson Square, but inclement weather forced the ceremony to move to the wedding chapel at the Hilton St. Charles. Though I’m sure Kristen and Steve were disappointed, they didn’t show it, and refused to let the rain dampen their spirit. Thanks to Michele Adams and her Unique Weddings in New Orleans team, and Steven with Dunn & Sonnier Flowers, the last-minute venue move went surprisingly smooth.
After the ceremony, as we awaited transportation to the reception, the fabulous Pin-Stripe Brass Band entertained in the lobby of the hotel, which the guests (most of them from out-of-town) as well as the steady stream of Jazz Fest refugees returning from a rainy day at the Fairgrounds seemed to really enjoy.
After the beautiful reception at Pat O’s on the River, the couple received a wonderful sparkler sendoff, and rode away on a horse-drawn carriage.
Tara & Scott exchanged heartfelt vows in an intimate Jackson Square ceremony.
The day before, Tara and I spoke on the phone, and we were both concerned about the weather, which was predicted to be quite nasty, with a 60 – 80% chance of storms. But, the weather gods smiled on this couple… literally minutes before their afternoon ceremony was to begin, the menacing skies that had been lingering all day suddenly cleared, and the weather was beautiful for the rest of their day.
After the brief ceremony, we had a nice carriage ride around the French Quarter, stopping at opportune spots for photographs.
