Wedding in New Orleans at Southern Oaks
Hayley and Kenny
I had a great time with this Mississippi couple and their guests at Southern Oaks Plantation! The evening ceremony was immediately followed by a signature Southern Oaks fireworks show (which was particularly meaningful to the couple, as Kenny had actually popped the big question during a July 4th fireworks show!). At the end of the night, the couple was given a fabulous glowstick send-off!
The bride took the time to write this wonderful review for me after the wedding:
What to say about Michael Caswell? It’s hard to put words to how outstanding he is as a photographer. Michael shot our engagement photos and our wedding. Our engagement photos were beautiful. Michael truly knows how to capture a couple and the landscape in a truly great photograph. Just perfect. I was so excited for him to shoot our wedding and we were not disappointed. The reason why we chose Michael was because of his style. He is great at taking portraits and formal photos but we found his candid style photos were truly phenomenal. We weren’t wrong. Our wedding photos are the most breathtaking photos I’ve ever seen. The portrait shots are great but he captured my friends and family is an amazing light. Not only that but he captured my husband and I in so many beautiful photos. I have a tendency to fake smile when I know someone is taking a photo. Michael was everywhere without you knowing it. We have so many photos of my husband and I laughing genuinely and so many moments we didn’t get to see. I couldn’t recommend him more. A few other important items, picture quality aside. Michael is quick to respond to emails. He’s punctual and has always been on time or early. He’s very polite and great at his job. He’s creative and understands lighting and background. He works great with the staff at your venue and with friends and family. He isn’t aggressive with pulling you away from your reception. He gets the photos you want and then disappears to capture the pictures you never thought you needed. Do yourself a favor and hire Michael. You won’t regret it, I assure you. He’s an amazing photographer and because of him I have the best photos I’ve ever had, taken on the best day of my life. Not a moment missed of our fairy tale.
