Back in December I asked Twitter for links to some cool photographers in New Orleans I should check out. Here’s what I found (and I’ve made a Twitter list for those on Twitter); but this list is definitely incomplete: please leave comments, links to photographers and resources here in New Orleans and I’ll update the list. Cool?

Peeking in, Preservation Hall, New Orleans, Louisiana

I’ve lived in New Orleans for almost four months now, and while that often seems simultaneously like a long and short time, when I start thinking about what I know about the photography community and local photographers here in the greater New Orleans area I realize that I haven’t even scratched the surface.

Therefore, this is my start to fix this oversight, to reach out and learn from the broader community. This list is NOT comprehensive, but a starting point for me to learn more about New Orleans photographers. My apologies for the oversights: but help me out and leave a comment below, tweet, or email me, and I’ll update the list, cool? Thanks!

Photographers
Not in any particular order. Note: I’d like to update this list with what people specialize in (commercial, editorial, weddings, etc.) and whether you/they do video: help me out?

Organizations and Publications

Galleries, Camera Shops, Resources
Where is a good list of galleries, camera shops, developers, other resources for photographers in New Orleans? I’d love to get a much better idea on local resources.

Updated 4/14
The New Orleans Photo Alliance has a list of their members on their website.

Thanks @tedhall, @julseybean, @craftylildevil, @KatieFauquier, @CieraHolzenthal, @dustinhinton and cootiepoop for your suggestions back in December.

    Just getting started in photography, EditElf.com has give me a huge advantage over well established photographers. I don’t have to buy expensive editing software, learn all the tricks,and waste time on my computer. I started shooting weddings because I love photography and I love people, so that’s what I spend my time doing!

    my specialty is capturing people and things as they are. I know that sounds vague but I love to stop and enjoy life. people, kids, street signs, even trash cans from time to time.

    thanks

    Fine Art Exposure – http://www.fineartexposure.com – awesome wedding photography!

    Joshua Lee Nidenberg – http://www.joshualeestudio.com commercial and Louisiana focused photography – his website doesn't do him justice – but he's always out and about at festivals selling his work.
