I am originally from New Orleans and now live in New York. When I got engaged and set my wedding in New Orleans, I knew I needed a photographer who was not only skilled, but also readily available to answer questions (as I live out of town and was planning my wedding from afar). Bob exceeded our expectations with his courteous demeanor, professionalism, and beautiful photography. I am absolutely in love with my photos/album and could not have asked for a better photographer. Thank you again for such beautiful mementos of the most perfect day- we will cherish them always!
I’ve know Bob since my daughter was in elementary and fell in love with his photography. I told his daughter who I worked with at the time I want him to be her wedding photographer and he was. He is so good and professional. Calm and patient with our bridal party. Thank you for the beautiful photos which we will cherish forever. He is highly recommended to all.
I was blown away with the professionalism. We got to sit face to face to review in detail the kind of pictures were to be taken. He was able to feel my vibe to catch the pictures of my personality... It was so awesome. He was THAT & SO MUCH MORE!!!!!! I would love to work with him again!!
The most important thing you can do for your wedding is choose a good photographer! The day was such a whirlwind and there were so many things that I missed, but thanks to Bob we have so many wonderful memories! Bob was such pleasure to deal with starting from day one. He is very easy to talk to and made the planning stress free and fun! Day of, Bob and Connie showed up early and ready to work. They were extremely patient and helpful trying to get everyone organized and lined up for flattering shots. They captured every moment of our big day from the formal to the fun to all the best parts of our second line! If I had to do it all over again I would choose Bob every time!
I have been married 6 days! The emotions from the wedding are still very fresh.
Mr. Bradford is the best! He worked 4 days straight after the wedding to have my pictures officially ready for us! I love them all!
We were married at the Audubon Tea Room in the morning. I advised the entire wedding party to arrive at 8 AM for pictures. I ended up being the one running late! Without hesitation, Mr. Bradford flipped the script and took all the Groomsmen pictures first. The Bridal party pictures started soon afterwards. He worked so smoothly and efficiently. We even had time left over to relax before the wedding.
He met with everyone on both sides of the family and wedding party. Everyone was able to have pictures taken that they wanted. I have enjoyed looking through the pictures and seeing candid shots and posed pictures of the guests. The venue time flew by, and we were not able to spend time with everyone. Thank goodness pictures were taken of all the guests!
He captured many different angles of the ceremony. We didn't even notice he was taking most of the pictures. I'm so thankful for his dedication. We now have beautiful pictures to remember our best day!
We cannot say thank you enough to Mr. Bob and his assistant, Ms. Connie, for the beautiful wedding photographs! Mr. Bob was so easy to work with! He was very professional and responsive. He is very passionate about what he does and his pictures reflect it! I would recommend Mr. Bob to anyone searching for a wedding photographer!
I would definitely recommend Bob! My engagement, bridal and wedding pictures were awesome! Bob is very nice and and easy to work with. He was able to work with my schedule for engagement and bridal sessions. Very happy bride here!
We new from the start that Bob was the best choice for our wedding photographer. He is very professional and takes a lot of time with you explaining what he will give you in your package. Also he takes ample amount of shots to choose from for your beautiful wedding album. So many lovely pictures that it is very hard to make a decision! Our album tells a wonderful story of our moment in time,"our wedding day."
I highly recommend using Bob Bradford for your wedding photographer. From the first time I spoke to Bob on the phone, he was extremely helpful and I felt at ease. He spent time getting to know me to figure out how to best capture my individual ceremony and needs. He spent time the week of the wedding on multiple occasions going over a timeline until I was comfortable we would get all the shots I wanted. The day of the wedding he was very professional. He kept to our timeline and ensured that all the shots were captured even when we had to go to Plan B due to the rain. He and his assistant Connie were very calming prior to the ceremony. I had my pictures in less than 2 weeks and we are thrilled with how they turned out. I will have these memories of every minute of our wedding day thanks to Bob Bradford Photography.
Couldn't have asked for a better photographer! We just had our wedding 2 days ago and I would highly recommend anyone getting married to contact Bob!!!
Dear brides and grooms getting married in the great New Orleans, stop your searching and look no further than Bob Bradford. This is the photographer for you. As just a quick synopsis, from the moment my husband and I met Bob we were impressed by his professionalism, easy-going personality, genuine excitement over wedding days, and eye for detail. I promise he will not disappoint.
For those who would like more detail: Bob was incredible from the first time we met him to our continued contact after the wedding. From the beginning he gave us great input and helped us structure our wedding day to try and give it the best flow possible. His eye for detail even before the wedding was incredible. He asked both my husband and me whether had "a good side" or would be wearing our glasses so he could account for the glare of the sun. And while we didn't have a good side, both my mom and dad had scares from major surgeries from earlier in the year that they were concerned about. After informing Bob, he never said a word, didn't bring it up, but instead placed my parents to highlight their best sides and make them feel comfortable.
Even his attitude throughout the day made everything more enjoyable. I am a person constantly concerned about time and his gentle reminders that nothing can happen until I am there and that there is nothing to be worried about was enough to put this nervous bride at ease and enjoy the day. He was also so patient with my 70+ year old in-laws and 8 year niece and nephews. He never rushed them, allowed them to go at their own pace, and simply took advantage of moments when he could. That made it so much nicer for my in-laws who have a hard time getting around and were worried about slowing everyone down.
He also roles with punches so well. My father surprised the wedding party with a tray of oysters half way through our second line. Bob never missed a beat, even with so much going on already, getting wonderful shots.
Not to mention his photos...we loved every one!! Even with a small wedding, he was able to jump around and get so many different pictures from a variety of different angles without taking away from the moment. His joy for the day was also reflected in the way he was able to get my whole family to relax for every shot. They looked amazing getting lots of little details. We had also asked him for a smattering of photos back within a month to show at reception later that month. He did us one better and had all of them to us before we were back from our honeymoon.
These are only a few reasons we love Bob. And since then I have participated in another wedding and I can say with certainty Bob is the best of the best! Other photographers simply do their job. Bob LOVES his job and being a part of weddings. This truly shows in how he treats not only his clients but also their families and is reflected in his photos.
And to Bob, if you happen to read this, know that the Stadig's cannot thank you enough.
We are so happy that we're able to get Bob Bradford to photograph our wedding. His photos outstanding, and a super nice guy,
Mr. Bradford was a joy to work with! He is very kind and thoughtful and made me feel at ease when posing for pictures. He is very accommodating and is also very responsive to emails and phone calls. He is very talented and he knows what he is doing. All communication with him went smoothly and amicably. I highly recommend Mr. Bradford as a photographer!!
Mr Bob was fantastic, and I would highly recommend him. His professionalism and good eye made our wedding photos excellent... Each time my new husband and I have looked at the photos, we love them even more than the time before! If you want to be able to see your wedding exactly as it was, then hire him - he will deliver and not disappoint.
Bob did an amazing job with my wedding last January. The pictures turned out great. He is so easy to work with and his photo packages had everything I wanted. He customized my wedding album to exactly what I wanted. Thanks, Bob!!
Bob Bradford was a wonderful photographer and made my day last forever with the beautiful pictures he took. I was very happy with the photos that he took of me and my husband. We will cherish these photos forever!
We loved Bob and his assistant! Before the wedding, Bob made us feel like the day was the most important photo shoot he would ever do, and took time to ask us questions and make us feel taken care of so that we didn't have to worry about anything during the wedding. During the wedding day, he was barely visible, yet took so many incredible pictures! I highly recommend him and his team---for expertise, excellence in his profession, and overall kindness and wonderful customer service!
Bob worked with us on at our June 2016 wedding. He was very professional and easy to work with. Both my husband and I are not used to taking lots of photos but he was able to make us both feel comfortable and took some beautiful shots which really showcased our emotions on the big day. He was extremely easy to work with and was very timely in all his responses.
Bob Bradford was the perfect photographer for our wedding. He is so creative but also so organized and helped us plan our entire timeline for the wedding. His personality is so calming and kind that he is wonderful to have around on a day that can be hectic. His photography is amazing and he had our proofs ready so quickly! We could not have been happier and recommend him highly!
Bob photographed my big sisters wedding, so it was an easy choice because I love his classic style. He arrived early and made formal pictures as painless as possible. I didn't even notice him there at the reception other than when we posed for pictures, and we have tons of great photos! Stayed late and got great pictures of our second line down fulton st. Very easy to work with and great choice for a wedding photographer :)
There are not enough words to say how great Bob is. Not only is he a very talented photographer, but he is an extremely professional and nice person. He makes you feel so comfortable working with him, and he captures the spirit of the marriage and the couple. The photos are all beautiful, and there are so many to choose from. He listens to every request and does his very best to make them happen. His assistant, Connie, was fantastic to work with as well. Couldn't recommend more. He was one of my favorite vendors I chose for my wedding. He did my sister's wedding thirteen years ago, and even though I can't imagine it being possible, he's become even better!
I'm the Mother of the Bride. Very hard to please :) I thought Bob was fantastic. He's so experienced, knowledgeable and had great ideas. We planned our wedding from Colorado. He was so nice and very helpful!
He was recommended by several venues we visited.
I highly recommend him.
Bob was a wonderful photographer and a true professional to work with!! He arrived early and adhered to our strict timeline throughout the entire day and evening.
Thank you, Bob!
All the best,
Carrie & Matt Doyle
Love my pictures. Album is beautiful.
My daughter's album is beautiful. Bob was very patient and so easy to work with. We got the pictures in a very timely manner and highly recommend him.
Bob was so gracious and professional. He took the time to understand what we were looking for, and really captured The amazing feel of the day and all of the special moments. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend recommend him to Nola brides.
I cannot say enough great things about my wedding photography with Bob. He was so patient and attentive and an absolute gem to work with. He wants to know the kind of shots and style you want while also adding his own expertise to each shot. I took engagement pictures, bridal pictures, and pictures on the wedding day. On my wedding day, he captured priceless moments I didn't even realize were happening. I absolutely loved all my pictures and highly recommend Bob Bradford, a true professional in the wedding photography business.
I cannot say enough good things about Bob Bradford Photography. We spent the last year with him photographing my daughter's Outdoor Engagement session, Bridal Formals and September 12th Wedding. The cost of these three services, along with a parent book, DVD, photo box, flush mount album and Guest Sign in Book, is a steal. The quality of his work is outstanding. The composition, poses, lighting, color and black and white images of every session are breathtaking. The Engagement session was photographed at Bayona Restaurant and every shot in the Guest Sign in Book just pops. Bob's photoshop-touch up skills are masterful. The Bridal Formals were taken at Longue Vue Gardens, August 3. After an hour in the blazing heat, my daughter's complexion and hair were less than perfect. Bob was able to alter the images to look as they were when we first arrived, just angelic and beautiful. One of his shots of the ceremony on the altar of St. Agnes Church is so magical that they have posted it on their website. He is calm and so professional. He is so experienced and unobtrusive that he was allowed on the altar of the church. He captured every important moment without blocking the aisle or guests' views. It is one thing to see a photographer's work in the studio, and a whole different thing to have them deliver what was on display and promised. Bob's work is first class and not only met our high expectations but exceeded them. We are grateful to Bob Bradford Photography for capturing such gorgeous images of our daughter's once in a lifetime experience! Future brides....he comes highly recommended!!
Simply, there are not enough stars to express my sentiment for Bob Bradford.
I remember looking online with my Mom one Friday night, and seeing countless photography websites - ones that were "over the top" - until we came across Bob's. When we did, we said - this is it - we were both so very pleased with the "look" of the bridal photos. They were classic, candid, unique, not "showy" - everything I was looking for. I remember, too, being anxious about whether he would have our date open - and, breathed a sign of relief when he did!
As an out-of-town, NOLA girl, older bride, I knew what I wanted in my wedding photos; and, Bob captured that, and everything else in between. On a visit to NOLA weeks prior to the wedding, I met with Bob, and we outlined the timing of "the day", the who's who of the wedding party, the aspects that I was wanting to capture in the photos, etc.
When our wedding day came, it went like clock-work, thanks to the pre-planning we did (and, for good weather!). I had not a worry in the world knowing that Bob was my photographer - and, the final product of the photographs proves just that.
The creativity, the professionalism, and the patience that Bob brought to the pictures and to this entire experience - as a bride, I could not have asked for anything more. It made a joyful time, all the more joyful, knowing that our special moments were photographed the way in which they were.
It was a true pleasure to work with Bob, his wife Debbie, and with Connie his photo assistant - a truly joyful pleasure!! Know that this bride (and, groom - can't forget the groom!) are so very grateful!!!
Bob is a great photographer! He is very professional and friendly. I am very happy with all my photos he took. The hardest part was picking my favorites for the album.
Bob is a fantastic photographer and he and his assistant were very professional and efficient. He mixed in well with a small wedding party and was very easy for everyone to work with. I would definitely recommend Bob.
I cannot say enough great things about Bob! First, he went out of his way to be accommodating because my fiance and I wanted to take our engagement pictures at LSU. He captured exactly what we wanted even though we weren't sure what we wanted!
Second, I have the most beautiful bridal portraits thanks to Bob! We shot them in City Park and he captured the scenery and made me look flawless! He made our guest book out of pictures from our engagement shoot and my bridal portraits. I love it!
Third, the day of the wedding, he was everywhere we wanted him to be! He even took some extra time with us during the reception to take pictures by the fountain outside of the Pavilion of the Two Sisters. I'm so glad we did because those are some of my favorite pictures out of tons of amazing pictures!
Finally, when I received my wedding album, I was blown away with how beautiful it was. He used pictures as backgrounds on some of the pages and captured the essence of the ceremony and reception.
I would recommend Bob to anyone looking for a photographer!
Bob was such a pleasure to work with - from talking to him initially to the day of the wedding. He obviously has great experience photographing weddings and knows exactly what to do to capture the perfect moments. I would highly recommend him to anyone!
Bob is clearly a true professional whose years in the business are apparent. Bob was extremely organized and shot pictures in a very efficient and timely manner. A huge plus was the short turn around time to receive our photos! My husband and I were very happy with our choice. Pricing of packages was extremely flexible and affordable. Bob is a great photographer and you can't go wrong with him!
Bob is a first rate photographer. He is responsive to questions. He meets with the brides ahead of time to confirm he aligned with their wishes. He explains his process so their is no confusion on the day of the ceremony. He has several options of wedding packages. What I like best is that he provides an artistic eye for pictures. He is mindful of the time that he is spending with you during you special day. He also makes sure he is capturing all the special moments. I would recommend him to anyone
I chose Bob Bradford because he looked professional and business like at the Bridal Shows. He was business and not gimmicky. Bob took my engagement, rehearsal party, and wedding with patience and efficiency. He definitely did not skimp on the quantity and quality – loads of pictures --- posed and candid. Besides all the above, he and his wife are very nice people and have a cute house in Gentilly. Choose him ------ you’ll love the results!
Bob Bradford took both our engagement and wedding pictures. He did an incredible job! Not only does Bob take beautiful photos, but he is wonderful to work with. He was always very nice to be around and was accommodating to all of our special requests. My husband and I absolutely love our photos and know they will last a lifetime! Bob Bradford Photography will not disappoint you!
We felt comfortable with Bob within in minutes of meeting him. He is very professional, experienced, and fun to work with. We knew very early on that is was important to him that we have the wedding that we wanted and not so much what he envisioned. He was very helpful with making suggestions and caught some amazing shots throughout the wedding, reception and the 2nd line parade. The pictures that he captured execeeded our expectations. He was very prompt with follow up when we had questions. The next time we are in need of a photographer, we will be calling Bob.
We were very please with our photographer. Pictures came out beautifully & quickly. The team was easy to work with & made it a pleasure. We would definitely recommend Bob Bradford to anyone.
I was really impressed with Bob Bradford. He was professional from the beginning and put a lot of pride into his work. He made sure that everyone was comfortable and made sure he got every shot. I would highly recommend Bob for your engagement, bridal, and wedding photography!
I had a hard time trying to decided on my wedding photographer, but after a long debate and lots of great advice from other brides and vendors I chose Bob Bradford. I was extemely clueless when it came to wedding planning and deciding on how my wedding timeline was going to playout. In the end Bob put the whole day in perspective for me without a problem. When it came to making sure our special day had been captured to say the least, he did it better than I could possible imagine. Bob and his staff were exremly kind and professional thoughout the entire year especially when it came to chosing him as our photographer, payments, bridal portraits, picking out the best pictures, running late (sorry bob) and the actual wedding day. We had a tradtional catholic wedding and as most people know catholic priest can be strict, but Bob knew more rules than myself on when and where to take pictures during the ceremony. During the reception I could not keep up with him and his staff. They worked so hard in making sure they snapped every picture possible. Overall, our pictures were breathtaking and I could not be happier with my wedding Photographer, Bob and his awesome team! Picking a good photographer is one of the most improtant parts of wedding planning, so for all brides in the new orleans area pick Bob and I promise you will be pleased ;)
Bob was great! He got wonderful photos and was quick. We got all the photos we wanted and so many great shots I don't even know what to pick. He was flexible and a great listener with lots of experience. He helped make my wedding experience incredible.
Bob and his helper were great. They were very unobtrusive during the ceremony while taking lots of very high quality photos. I'm not fond of the way a lot of photogs for weddings really interfere/get in the way, and Bob was really the opposite of that while at the same time taking a lot of different photos at different angles for us to choose.
Bob was very responsive to getting pictures that we wanted and good at getting pictures he knew we'd want even if we didn't know it at the time.
Also, I really like his natural and unaffected style of portraiture.
The bottom line is that if you want consistent quality work with all the photos that you'd expect for your wedding at a reasonable price then Bob Bradford photography is the service you want.
Bob did an excellent job capturing our wedding day. We got married in a new orleans catholic church and reception at city park pavilion of two sisters and Bob did such great work getting photos of every detail of our special day! We told him we wanted elegant, classic photography with lots of candid shots and that's exactly what he gave us. He was very open to our ideas about shots we wanted for our engagement session and wedding day, and used a lot of his own creative influence to get a ton of really great photos. THANKS a million to Bob for giving us so many photos that will be such great memories for years to come!
Bob was great to work with. His ideas were creative and executed wonderfully. He completed taking the photographs after the ceremony in a timely manner so we can enjoy time spent with our guests. Bob, was a pleasure to work with and provided us with our wedding DVD merely weeks after our wedding. A real gem of a photographer.
Bob and his wife Debbie were wonderful to work with. Bob listened to all of our request and made wonderful suggestions for beautiful pictures throughout the night. With the threat of tropical storm Karen, he met with us the day before the wedding to come up with Plan B of wedding photos. Thankfully the weather held out and he was able to capture beautiful photos in Benedicts gardens. Bob was kind enough to let my sister click away on her camera right by his side the entire night. Not only was he so easy to work with, he also had the pictures ready for us within 4 days of the wedding! We could not have chosen a better photographer! After showing my photos to others, several people have stated that they also used and loved Bob Bradford.
I just got married in July and Bob was our photographer. He is very professional and did a great job! He has a lot of experience and was helpful in suggesting the order and types of photos that should be taken; Bob is very fast and efficient; he has it down to a science. Tons of pictures were taken and we hardly noticed him. His prices are reasonable and you get a lot for your money. Also he is very friendly and easy to talk to. He also had our pictures ready to view very quickly. I cannot say enough positive things. He captured our most special day perfectly! We highly recommend Bob and his team!
Bob and his team did a great job! Leading up to the wedding, he was attentive and easy to contact with anything I needed. The pictures are beautiful: classy, but still creative. Bob is quick too, so your groom and groomsmen will be genuinely smiling in all of you pictures.
Bob Bradford was a joy to work with. He was very prompt, very skilled and experienced, and extremely kind and accommodating. He's a very traditional photographer, but is flexible in creating photos of your liking. I would totally recommend Bob Bradford Photography for your next event!
When my husband and I started looking at wedding photographers, we separately pulled up several photographers' websites who were recommended to us. We put them in order of preference and both had Bob in first place. Luckily, Bob was available for our wedding! I spoke with him on the phone, emailed several times, and met in person twice before our wedding. Bob was always easy to get in touch with, very professional, enthusiastic about his work, and listened to what we were looking for. At our wedding, we never noticed where Bob was during the ceremony or reception until it was time for posed shots. He captured amazing candid and posed pictures, and was incredibly easy to work with. When we met after our wedding to pick up our pictures, again, Bob and his wife took the time to go through each photo and explain how we order our official album. He and his assistant were such a pleasure to work with. I could not be happier with our decision and would recommend Bob Bradford Photography to any future bride and groom!
