Thinking about snapping some stunning, professional photos during your visit to New Orleans? This private photoshoot experience in Audubon Park might just be what you’re looking for. It’s a straightforward way to turn your trip into a collection of high-quality images without the hassle of figuring out camera angles or editing afterward. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with a group of friends or family, this experience offers a relaxed and personalized way to immortalize your time in the Big Easy.
What really caught my attention is how this tour promises 50-60 professionally edited photos, delivered digitally after just an hour — that’s a pretty good deal for capturing some truly memorable shots. Plus, the fact that it’s designed to showcase the park’s most iconic spots, from grand oak trees to tranquil lagoons, means you’ll get a variety of backgrounds to choose from. One thing to consider, though, is that it’s a private group experience with a 10-person maximum, so if you’re expecting a large family reunion or group event, this might not fit.
Overall, I’d say this experience suits anyone wanting to celebrate a special occasion, commemorate a trip, or just have some fun outdoors with a professional touch. It seems particularly good for those who prefer natural, candid shots over stiff posed photos, making it a relaxed, enjoyable outing.

The Photography Experience and Its Value
The quality of the photos is a standout aspect here. According to the review, LaDonna, who traveled with a group of nine women, found the photographer to be “extremely nice and patient,” and appreciated how well the shoot was organized. The fact that you receive 50-60 high-quality edited photos means you’re getting a solid collection to pick from.
The professional guidance on posing is a bonus, especially if you’re not used to being in front of a camera. But if you prefer a more natural look, you also have the option to just relax and let candid moments happen — which the photographer is skilled at capturing.
Another point we noticed from the review was that the booking process is straightforward, with advanced communication and easy-to-use app or website. That’s a definite plus when you’re busy planning a trip and want things to run smoothly.
Visualizing Your Time in Audubon Park
Imagine strolling through the park’s shaded avenues, your camera or phone in hand, as your photographer guides you to the best spots. You’ll stop beneath the grand oak trees, their sprawling branches forming nearly cathedral-like canopies—perfect for creating striking silhouette shots or just capturing the lush greenery. Then, you might move toward the lagoon, where the calm water and scenic views add a peaceful backdrop to your photos.
The variety of backgrounds means you’ll come away with a well-rounded photo collection: some lively, candid shots, some posed, and others capturing the natural beauty of the park. These images are ideal for framing, sharing on social media, or creating holiday cards.
Pricing and Value for Money
At $135 for up to 10 people, the price point is quite reasonable, especially considering the number of high-quality images you’ll receive. For a one-hour session, that’s an affordable way to get a professional photo shoot without the usual hefty price tag.
The value is enhanced by the fact that you’re not just getting the photos — you’re also getting an experience. The professional guidance and the opportunity to explore one of New Orleans’ most picturesque parks add to the overall worth. If you’re someone who cherishes having high-quality, professionally taken photos of your trip, this is likely to meet your expectations.
