Engagement Session French Quarter New Orleans

We took Christina and Matt’s engagement session French Quarter to the next level. They wanted to do a ‘first look’ and exchange of letters, both of which are incredibly sentimental and emotional rites of passage for an engaged couple. We had Matt wait on a bridge, while Christina, dressed in her full bridal attire, approached him from behind. Having never even seen her dress, he was completely stunned when he turned around to face her for the first time. This moment was so packed with raw emotion that everyone got a little teary-eyed. After the first look, Christina and Matt exchanged letters. Giving them some space, I watched from a distance as they shared this moment, but of course didn’t miss a single nuanced smile or tear.
Feeling elated from the memorable experience prior, we then gallivanted through the New Orleans French Quarter, stopped for a quick beignet, and moved on to the next awesome spot to capture some more magical photos of this awesome couple. It was an action-packed engagement session that ran the gamut of positive emotions.
Cheers to you Christina and Matt!
