Truthfully, I’ve always been obsessed with things that sparkle - your love story is no different.

C'est moi, Whitney!

modern romantic wedding photographer

When I started my business in the spring of 2020, I named it Les Petits Bijoux, which means “little jewels” in French, because I genuinely treasure witnessing the way people love each other. Being invited into something so personal is not lost on me, and I treat it that way every time I pick up my camera.

From the moment you inquire to the moment you ride off into the sunset, I’m here as more than just a wedding photographer. Think of me as a steady presence, a fly on the wall when moments are quiet, and a true helper who is not afraid to tell you when you’ve got lipstick on your teeth. I photograph weddings for couples who want to feel supported, seen, and comfortable, whether they’re getting married in New York, Louisiana, or somewhere far from home.

I can be a bit of a hot mess, and I fully embrace it. That energy turns into organized chaos on wedding days, where things feel relaxed without ever feeling careless. You should not have to follow a rigid timeline or have your day dictated to you. We can go with the flow, create our own magic, and do things in a way that actually feels like you. Want to dance in your underwear after hair and makeup with your girls? Do it. Want a quiet, intimate moment with your new spouse before cutting the cake? Take it.

The only rules on a wedding day are the ones you create. This is your day, your story, and your experience. I cannot wait to watch you live it and play a small part in documenting it exactly as it unfolds.

To me, photos are like the "jewels" of life: small luxuries that add immeasurable beauty to our lives.

Your wedding is a story, not a checklist.

03.

Beautiful photos come from trust and connections more than perfection.

02.

Presence over perfection, emotion over performance

01.

Why me? What makes me different?

Timelines can be restrictive, let's throw them out the window and dance in our underwear, shall we?

04.

You're not just booking a photographer, you're booking peace of mind.

Sound like your cup of tea?

I’m down to explore new places, opportunities, and ideas. I treat every session like a fresh adventure.

adventure

Human over perfect. Experience over hours.
Trust over control.

passion

I’m team ‘natural and narrative’ over ‘stiff and contrived’ photos every damn day.

Storytelling

I pinky promise, cross-my-heart to always prioritize…

Honest storytelling that feels cinematic, emotional, and completely you

I’m a ‘glass half full’ girlie who’ll bring fun, optimism, and creative solutions to every scenario.

optimism

From New Orleans to New York rooftops and everywhere your story leads

"Photography is special and Whitney understands that. She will make you feel comfortable and confident while providing beautiful memories for you to cherish for years to come. You’ll never regret taking the photos and sharing the experience with Whitney while you do so."

A full-service, luxury experience rooted in ease, trust, and emotion

You don't need to know what to do. That's my job. All you have to do is show up and love each other, the rest will come.
