New Orleans Love Spell

New Orleans Love Spell


Through the lens of photographer Michael Allen, perhaps one of the most visually stunning photo shoots NOLA has ever seen. Every shoot Michael does is a style change that will keep your head spinning. It's hard to explain Michaels style, he breaks his own rules with each new location. He sought inspiration before the trip to NOLA for the latest SB shoot and just didn't find what he wanted. So he wiped the slate clean and hit the streets of the French Quarter and created this masterpiece of fashion, art and passion. The next time any photographer searches for inspiration from the big easy, this will be their template. "Working with Sebastian Kim and Warwick Saint in my career definitely influenced my vision for this shoot. I encourage every photographer to latch on to the worlds best to make you work harder. Then shoot in NOLA and see if you can catch the "Love Spell" we captured in this shoot!" This was our 10th year shooting for Southern Bride Magazine, we've developed a long term relationship with the editors and their team. 

For this shoot we camped out in luxury at the Royal Sonesta Hotel right on Bourbon Street, the City of New Orleans visitors bureau helped is with a few amazing locations as we treked across the French Quarter shooting some amazing designer gowns from top dress makers around the world.

Take a look at our latest collection, and pick up a copy of the magazine on newsstands across the South and Southeastern USA. Our next scheduled shoot is in the North Carolina Highlands with our hosts at The Old Edwards Inn, one of the most exclusive resorts in the world.
