Brocato captured my wedding beautifully! I used Brocato for my engagment shoot, bridal shoot, and wedding. They were absolutely amazing to work with and really captured the feelings and magical moments of the day. I've gone through my wedding photos on multiple different occasions and every time I find myself tearing up with a huge smile.
They were ON IT during my wedding day. We had a sync up call before hand to go over all the photos I wanted and on the day they remembered every single photo I had requested (which was a lot). They were so high energy and such a joy to be around and work with.
They got my photos back so quickly and provided over 70 sneak peak photos within a week of my wedding! They have also done every edit I request quickly and flawlessly. I cannot say enough good things about Brocato. They truly made my wedding a dream! I will be forever grateful to Brocato!

We cannot recommend Brocato enough! The pictures came out amazing, and they are the best people to work with! Lyle and Hannah were the photographers working with us on our wedding day, and they made everything so easy and stress free. Being photographed can be awkward and uncomfortable, but they know how to make it an enjoyable, fun experience! Hire them for your wedding, you won’t regret it!!

Speechless. Timeless. Breathtaking. Magical.
None of these words accurately articulate the moments Lyle and Brocato Photography captured for us, on our wedding day. If there is one vendor you book for your wedding day, if there is one vendor you trust on your wedding day, let it be Lyle and Brocato Photography.
Everyone knows weddings are stressful. Coordinating large groups of people, articulating schedules as needed, planning for weather and more, keeping things moving and on time, etc. Lyle did all of this and more with such kindness and grace, you’d swear it was easy.
I knew leading up to my wedding that I had to trust my vendors to do the job they’d been hired to do. After multiple meetings with Lyle where he created schedules for the day of, made a running list of requested photos, familiarized himself with various family dynamics needing to be managed and more my wedding day came. As my wedding day arrived, with it came pouring down rain, spur of the moment venue changes for photos, adjustments to timelines, health surprises and more. With all of it, I trusted Lyle and Brocato Photography - they managed everything without breaking a sweat and still managed to capture the absolute magic that existed amongst the chaos.
If there’s one thing Brocato Photography does well it’s candid photos, it’s snapshots of time that will last you a lifetime. I knew all this when I hired Lyle and Brocato Photography and still when I received my wedding photos this weekend I’m left speechless with all of the genuine magic they captured for us.
These photos encompass the love I felt on my wedding day, the pride our families showed as they supported us, the fun and joy we had while dancing with our friends and so much more.
If you spend money on anything for your wedding, let it be Brocato Photography. Their work will encompass the magic of each moment so that it lasts you a lifetime. There aren’t enough words to accurately reflect the gratitude I have for Lyle and Brocato Photography and every single thing they did to make our wedding day the wonderful, magical day that it was. If you do anything for your wedding day, other than saying “I do”, hire Brocato Photography. You won’t regret it

Brocato were the most amazing photographers to work with on our wedding day! They were an absolute pleasure to work with and we felt like we became friends throughout the day. Their professionalism, fun attitudes and looking out for us did not go unnoticed and even our guests commented on how much they felt like wedding guests not just our photographers!

Absolutely worth every single cent. They are the best, most professional, kindest photographers on the planet. So fun, so helpful, so calming when needed and captured every moment. Thorough, understanding, and truly an absolute blast to work with them. Lyle + team allowed me to truly enjoy my wedding day as everything was handled. I truly, wholeheartedly recommend hiring them for your wedding day or other special event. Never disappointed once and thoroughly enjoyed working with them. Sad the day is already over. The picture turn around was so fast that they captured the most beautiful images. Thank you again - I am so grateful.

It didn't feel stale or staged, it felt like they were flies on the wall capturing the essence of our day and we are so grateful! We love looking at our pictures and our guests still do too.

Choosing Brocato Photography Collective was one of the best decisions I could have made for my wedding. Angelena's timeline organization and professionalism leading up to wedding day was so helpful, and she and Kennedy were both a complete joy to work with day of. In the midst of a stressful, last minute ceremony venue change due to rain, Angelena kept things calm and presented solution after solution. In addition to how wonderful they were to work with, our pictures are amazing. I honestly feel I could not have made a better choice of photographer.

If you're in search of the perfect wedding photography team, look no further! Our experience with Brocato Photography Collective was absolutely exceptional from start to finish, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Angelena and the entire team were an absolute dream to work with, and here's why:
From the moment we first reached out to them, they exhibited the utmost professionalism and organization. Planning a wedding can be chaotic, but having photographers who are on top of their game is an absolute blessing. They helped us create a detailed timeline for the day, ensuring that everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience.
What sets Brocato Photography Collective apart is not just their talent behind the camera, but also their warm and friendly personalities. They instantly put us at ease, making it effortless to relax and be ourselves in front of the lens. This made for some incredibly natural and beautiful candid shots that truly captured the essence of our special day.
When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. They managed to capture every emotion, every smile, and every tear in such a timeless and classic manner. The images are a true reflection of the love and joy we felt on that day. We've received countless compliments from family and friends, and many have said they're the most stunning wedding photos they've ever seen.
In addition to our wedding photos, Kennedy also took my wedding portraits, and I can't express how obsessed I am with them. They truly showcase her talent and expertise. I never thought I could look so radiant, and I'm forever grateful for the stunning portraits she created.
Perhaps the most important aspect of Brocato Photography Collective is their commitment to delivering the final product in a timely manner. We didn't have to wait long to relive our wedding day through these beautiful images, and for that, we're incredibly grateful.
Choosing Brocato Photography Collective was, without a doubt, the best decision we made for our wedding day. They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we can't recommend them enough. If you want wedding photos that will stand the test of time, capture the essence of your love, and work with photographers who are not only talented but also kind and easy to work with, then Brocato Photography Collective is the way to go. Thank you, Angelena and team, for making our wedding day even more memorable with your incredible work! We will cherish these photos for a lifetime.

Brocato was amazing to work with! I originally spoke with Lyle on the phone to plan and book. He was super helpful in helping me figure out what exactly I needed. For my actual wedding, I was assigned Angelina. Prior to my wedding, we were able to talk and come up with the perfect timeline which I loved because I’m a super planned out person. Angelina brought along Kennedy and Lacey for my wedding day, and they worked incredibly well together. Super organized, professional, and creative. Their work is the airy vibe which is what I wanted for my wedding pictures, and I cannot wait to see them! 10/10 recommend Brocato for your wedding!

Amazing experience!! I originally experienced Brocato Photography for my friend's wedding and had a great time working with Lyle as a bridesmaid. I got married this past April and didn't hesitant to book them for my own. They were the first thing I booked and I'm so glad I did! Angelena and Lyle are truly the sweetest and most caring people to work with. They made the whole process and timeline seamless and made sure we got every type of picture we wanted. The finished pictures were absolutely gorgeous and I will cherish them forever. I can't thank them enough!!

I don't even know where to begin. I am obsessed with the entire Brocato crew, their professionalism, their kindness, their organization, their creativity, their art, and every single photo they took surrounding our big day. We used them for everything: our engagement photos, our rehearsal dinner, my bridal luncheon, and the wedding ceremony and reception. And.... wow, they did such an amazing job with every photo, both posed and candids. My husband and I are awkward when it comes to photos, and they made the entire experience so comfortable and fun. They did a wonderful job giving direction and encouragement during our posed shots, and they created pure magic in their amazing candid shots. All of their crew are incredibly kind and were a pleasure to have around during the wedding weekend. They were respectful of our space and time, and were a calming presence during a sometimes hectic day. I honestly miss the gals/photographers! That's how pleasant they were to be around! And the photos, oh my goodness, the photos are SO good! There are so many to choose from, and choosing between them is not an easy task because they are ALL so wonderful! 10000/10 would recommend Brocato Photography. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding! I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Brocato Photography was fantastic to work with for our wedding! Kennedy and Hannah were super friendly and did a great job directing us in posing and making us feel comfortable throughout the photos. There was some challenging lighting with sun streaming in from the background during the ceremony and they still captured it beautifully. The candids from the rest of the night were also great! Highly recommend!

10/10. We booked Brocato for our Engagement, Rehearsal, and Wedding Day. I won't lie, booking someone for a destination wedding can be scary but let me tell you this, I consider these women dear to my heart now. Kennedy and Angelina were amazing. They went above and beyond the call of duty. They fit in so well with my family and bridal party. It made the day such a breeze. My dad had Kennedy helping him with his bowtie by the end of it lol. and Angelina ended up helping me put on my wedding dress and shoes, how many people can say that! I will cherish them both forever, especially when I reflect on my big day. I CANNOT wait to see how the pictures turned out but I know they are going to be perfect.

I cannot recommend Brocato enough. Our pictures are AMAZING! They captured moments that I didn't even see myself. When we got the photos back our jaws hit the floor, they are stunning, timeless and capture the day/night perfectly. I worked with Kennedy for our engagement photos and my bridals, and she was amazing, so sweet and flexible. We got all of the photos back in a timely manner. Angelina and Kennedy helped the wedding day run smoothly and were positive and a ray of sunshine on the day. I could go on and on, I absolutely loved working with the Brocato team and will be recommending them to everyone! 5 STARS!

From Michael and I's experience working with them, they truly went above and beyond to capture every beautiful moment of your special day.
Their team's professionalism was unmatched, but what really stood out to us was how kind and personable they were. They made everyone feel comfortable and at ease, which translated into gorgeous, natural photos. They were always willing to listen to our ideas and suggestions, and their creativity and attention to detail were evident in every shot they took.
Their ability to capture the emotions and essence of the day was truly remarkable. Looking back at the photos, it's clear that they have a true talent for capturing not just the big moments, but also the small, intimate ones that we may have missed in the excitement of the day.
Overall, we cannot recommend this photographer enough. They were an absolute pleasure to work with, and their work speaks for itself. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented, but also kind and personable, look no further. They are simply the best!

Speechless!!! From our first phone consultation with Angelena, I instantly felt in good hands. I had a very specific vision for our wedding day on 11/4/22 and her and her team completely made my husband and I feel at ease every step of the way. Our wedding was destination for us and we are so thankful they were a part of it. Sneak peaks (and a lot of them) arrived within days and was instantly brought to tears! Efficient, professional, and so kind. Do yourself a favor and hire the Brocato team for your wedding - you won't regret it!!

The Brocato Team is truly one in a million! They not only captured the fondest of memories with our families and friends on our wedding day, but they also made me and my husband feel so comfortable and at ease on a hectic and overwhelming day. Lyle and his crew were incredibly thorough and thoughtful during their time with us. We could not have imagined our wedding day with a better photography team. Brocato is truly the best of the best, and we are so fortunate they were able to be a huge aspect of our wedding day!

Highly recommend Brocato. They were seriously the best all around. We had terrible weather all day and Lyle and team kept us all relaxed and calm and the pictures looked like it was a beautiful day! So talented. We were also running over 1.5hours behind due to our makeup artist and we were still able to capture every picture before the sun went down. Those 2 things could have made for the most hectic / stressful day but because of Brocato, it was the best day ever! They are experts!! And the pictures are perfect, of course!!

Our wedding was more or less a destination wedding. We were planning from NYC, and even though we had family in NOLA, planning could have been stressful because we were so far away. That in mind, it wasn't stressful...not one bit. When you have an amazing photographer, it all seemed so seamless. Angie was so thoughtful of our time and distance when it came to planning our calls. The day of was perfect - she and her team were prompt, so professional and amazing at directing everyone in their poses and positioning. My dad has medical needs, and I can't emphasize how thoughtful they were of his limitations. Knowing he wouldn't be moving around much that day, they worked so hard to make sure he was included in as many pictures as possible. My entire family is eternally grateful for their thoughtfulness. As if I couldn't be happier with our decision to go with them, the quality of the pictures are fantastic. We can't stop looking at them and are having such a hard time narrowing down our choices for printing. Enjoy your wedding day and go with Brocato Photography. It was an investment we'd make all over again.

We felt so comfortable around them and they knew all the tricks to make sure we got some STUNNING shots. They had a super quick turn around and even provided us with an album of 50 teaser shots to hold us over while they prepared our full album. I would choose to work with Brocato again and again! Go with them and you'll see why :)

Brocato completely knocked it out of the park! It rained the entire day on our wedding and we were so worried about how this would affect photos. The Brocato family was very reassuring leading up to the day as my mother and I stressed about the weather forecast. The photography team rocked it. You would never know that it was rainy and gross outside from the photos. They were absolute pros at organizing everyone for the photos throughout the day. They "found the light" like they said they would and delivered some beautiful pictures that I am so excited to hang in our home. Definitely use Brocato!

They’re your photographer, unofficial wedding coordinator, hype team, and stress reducers. Lyle does pulse checks throughout the day and keeps you calm. I will never forget Lyle kneeling in the middle of the band for forever because we never left the front of the stage! He listens to your vision and uses his expertise to make it happen and make it BETTER. The absolute best investment you can make for the wedding.

When I started picking vendors for my wedding, I had two goals: I wanted professionals who are passionate about what they do and I wanted genuinely kind people. The team at Brocato Photography Collective brings you that and so much more! From my first phone call with Lyle to the very last shot on our wedding day, I felt cared for, special, and celebrated. Lyle and Kennedy did a fantastic job of knowing every shot to get and where to be to get the best ones. I couldn’t have asked for better people! If our pictures turn out to be anything like the kind-hearted, amazingly talented people who captured them… I know that our wedding photos will be truly stunning!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Brocato. They are kind and SO easy to work with. They will make sure your big day is everything and more. Angelina is an absolute peach to work with. She knows exactly the right shot and will make taking all the photos a breeze. I have also been in a wedding that Lyle shot; he is a gem, along with all of their photographers. You will not be disappointed if you choose Brocato for your big day. You will spend hours upon hours flipping through and loving every single image they take. I said it once and I'll say it again- if you don't choose Brocato for your big day or event, you're stupid.

We LOVED working with Brocato Photography Collective. Our first experience with them was our engagement photos and they knocked it out of the park. We included our dogs and they were so patient with both them and us. They helped us relax and feel comfortable in front of the camera which allowed our relationship to show through.
Wedding day was no different. The same focused but calm energy helped us stay on schedule and get some really beautiful shots. Lyle worked the formal photos schedule like a seasoned professional. He and our planner were so in sync and kept things moving with 2 big families. That alone was worth a 5 star review. Lyle and Kennedy handled all family dynamics with grace and never seemed frustrated or even bothered. They took every picture we asked for and were checking them against the list as we went through the reception.
We are so excited to see all of the photos and I know that they are going to be wonderful because the team at Brocato is top notch. I am so glad we booked them and would highly recommend.

5 stars is not enough for Brocato! They were the first vendor we reached out to after seeing the photos from my sister's wedding and there aren't enough words to describe how grateful we are to them. The photos are incredible. Their preparation and day of presence makes you feel at ease knowing they will capture everything you want and so much more! We can't recommend them enough and are beyond blessed to have worked with them! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU BROCATO!

The Brocatos are exceptional. They are personal, kind, generous, progressional, and just simply amazing. I could not imagine navigating my wedding without all of their assistance the day of and everything leading up to it. I’m so thankful for everything they did for me, my husband and my family.
They are so incredible that even my maid of honor hired them for her wedding!
I love Brocato Photography ❤️

Hiring Brocato Photography Collective was the best decision I made while planning my wedding. Lyle and his team are professional yet personable, they communicate on all levels and give great direction while shooting. Their photos are beautiful. I wanted my wedding day to be relaxing, calm and fun, they played right into that atmosphere. They kept things running on time without feeling rushed. They captured the essences of my relationship with my husband. I am so grateful I get to relive my wedding day when I look at the photos; they are perfect. Thank you Brocato Photography Collective!

AMAZING! Lyle is so wonderful to work with - patient, kind, and does beautiful work. I was indecisive on whether to take bridals and he was so helpful and I am SO glad I took them. Lyle and Hannah were both incredible on the wedding day. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Very pleased and highly recommend!!!

We would highly recommend Brocato to any engaged couple. These photos are everything we could have asked for and more... I am overwhelmed by the amount of perfect moments Hannah and Kennedy captured at our New Year's Eve Wedding. We currently have more than 200 photos favorited, I don't know how I will ever be able to narrow it down. The Brocato Team exceeded every expectation by a triple fold. Hannah and Kennedy were the most calming, professional team to have a part of our special day. If I would've known them before I knew them professionally I would have invited them to attend our wedding as guests, they fit right in! Brocato truly is such a delight and pleasure to work with. They made us feel calm and collected on our special day and were built in cheerleaders, we felt like celebrities thanks to your team! We will cherish these photos for a lifetime and pass them down for many generations to come. There is truly no one else like Brocato in the game. Thank you for making my dream come true.
With Love,
Emily H.

We'd highly recommend Brocato for your wedding! We hired them for our engagement photos, bridal portraits, rehearsal dinner and the wedding itself ... they nailed every aspect of it! Angelina and Kennedy were simply amazing!
Before the wedding we met with Angelina and she helped map out the timeline for the day. We can't even begin to describe how helpful this was for our planning. She also provided some great suggestions for the flow of the day.
Lastly, the photos ... they are simply perfect! They tell a story of how amazing our wedding weekend was for us.
If you are looking for a great experience, professional photographers and amazing photos ... look no further than Brocato. Very highly recommend!

Brocato was one of the best vendors we worked with from day 1. First and foremost, every single photo they took was stunning. Our wedding looks like a literal dream due to these talented humans. We even had a TikTok go viral of just their photos. They got every little detail, moment and BTS in between. Finally, no matter who was taking the photos or assisting, they went all in for us. Our engagements, bridals and wedding all took place in the height of a very hot New Orleans summer. Lyle and Hannah were there for our engagements and bridals where I almost passed out from the heat. Sweet Hannah ran to get me water while Lyle fanned me down. They were so kind and reassuring. Lyle and Kennedy helped us on wedding day and our entire wedding party wouldn't shut up over how kind they both were. They made us both feel so comfortable and calm in front of the camera and I wouldn't trade these people for anything.

WOW! There are not enough words to describe the incredible, genuine, professional, and one of a kind Brocato Team! They were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish! They were extremely organized, very efficient, and detail-oriented when taking wedding day pictures - especially when it came time for family photos! They were so much fun to have around and our pictures turned out BETTER THAN AMAZING. Our wedding pictures are stunning, breathtaking, top-quality, and simply gorgeous! We will be forever grateful for everything that the Brocato Team did for us during the most important time in our life!

Brocato was one of the best decisions in our wedding. Right from the beginning they were such professionals who have clearly done this a thousand times. Immediately they just *know* the questions to ask and what to do to make your day go smoothly. They really listened to the vibe we were going for with our wedding and delivered that. Not to mention the photos we got back are stunning - like... STUNNING. Throughout the whole day both Lyle and Kennedy were so encouraging, they made us feel like we were doing a good job and helped it not get stiff or awkward while we were posing for portraits. On that morning Lyle even helped our Usher (my little brother) tie his bow tie, I will forever be thankful for that. Each time I told one of our other vendors who our photographer was they all got excited, which I took as a good sign and they were right. If you're considering booking with Brocato - stop looking, you've found your photographer :)

If there was one thing that I could say about this team it would be that they made me feel SOOOO comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day. I absolutely suck at taking/posing for pictures but they made this experience effortless for me and my husband. I cannot thank you guys enough for our pictures. They are gorgeous!! I am so beyond happy to have these beautiful photos as they will remind me of the most special day of my life.
Best photographers ever!
Thanks again :)

I chose Brocato Photography Collective for my wedding last year and could not be happier. We are still blown away when we view our engagement session, bridals, and wedding day photos. It is truly hard to pick favorites when every photo is so gorgeous! I cannot imagine the skill and dedication it must take to edit each photo so beautifully. The Brocato team is organized, punctual, and understanding. They put up with a million COVID wedding changes and other last minute requests without missing a beat. They also helped so much with designing the wedding day timeline and keeping us on track on our wedding day to make sure we had time for the photos we wanted. My whole family was so impressed that we are choosing them again for my sister’s wedding next year :) Thank you again for giving us such beautiful keepsakes from the most important day of our lives.

I was in a wedding a few years back where Brocato Photography Collective did the photos. It is actually the wedding that my husband and I reconnected at and led to us dating. The photographers were awesome and captured a large group perfectly. I just knew I needed them for my husband and I's wedding. Let me tell you, Brocato exceeded my already high expectations! Before the wedding, the photographers were super organized and answered every question I had. Lyle called multiple times to make sure the schedule for the day of was to our liking and also to make sure every picture we wanted captured was on our photo list. This schedule was key at making sure we didn't take up too much time taking pictures after the wedding. Pictures were done in 15 minutes, and we were off to our reception! I was at ease the whole day because I knew Brocato had it under control. Lyle and Kennedy captured every detail perfectly. The fact that we had a ton of bridesmaids and groomsmen didn't matter because they captured the entire group perfectly. Lastly, the photos are beautiful. I along with anyone who sees the photos are completely blown away by their beauty. I have and will continue to recommend Brocato Photography Collective to other couples! Thank you so much for giving us gorgeous memories my husband and I can view forever. My husband and I cannot thank Brocato enough for their work.

Brocato was so amazing for our wedding! We were supposed to get married in April 2020, but had to postpone and completely change what we originally wanted for our wedding. Brocato was so helpful every step of the way. They were always open to our many changes that we had to make along the way. The pictures came out perfect! They were so organized the day of the wedding and kept us on track. Our day would have not gone nearly as smoothly if we didn’t have brocato there. I cannot recommend them enough!

I can't say enough about Brocato! We are so blessed to have gotten the chance to work with different members of the Brocato team for our engagement photos, bridal portraits and wedding day! They were all professional and organized, and they helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Wedding planning during the pandemic was not easy, but they were so accommodating and easy to work with. We knew how important finding the right photographer was for our big day, and the Brocato team truly delivered exceptional service and beautiful photos! We are so grateful to have our special moments captured by their team.

Lyle and his team are the absolute BEST. We could not be more grateful for having them be a part of our big day. From day 1 (before we had even signed the contract), he gave me great advice on everything from the timing of the day to vendors which made a huge difference. The selects are AMAZING and I cannot wait to see the rest! We did not stress for one second, everything felt effortless and we had so much FUN.

Brocato was a dream to work with. When starting to prepare for our big day, we knew Brocato was the photographer to capture every moment. As our wedding grew near and the pandemic spread, Brocato remained one of the few constants for our wedding day plans. After changing locations, the city, the guest list, etc to accommodate COVID restrictions, we knew Brocato was still the perfect photographer to capture our (now) intimate ceremony and reception. Lyle and Kennedy arrived early, stayed late and captured each and every detail of our day. As someone who doesn’t enjoy being photographed, they made it fun and easy! Brocato’s photos will always remind us of how we were able to still have a beautiful ceremony in the midst of the chaos in the world around us.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer or a photographer for any event, look no further than Brocato! They are everything you are looking for and more! Most importantly their photography is beautiful. To top that off their team is great to work with, organized, professional, on top of every detail you may not be thinking of, and they are priced very sharply for their services. Expect their team to make you feel at ease on your special day and capture all of the special moments you want to look back to all while not getting in the way of any of your fun! You will not be disappointed with your decision, and you will have such peace of mind being in such amazing hands!
