Crystal Sanderson Photography

incredibly grateful for your hard work and dedication - it showed in every aspect of the day. Thank you again for helping create memories we will cherish forever. With heartfelt thanks, Carly & Ellis

g at them every day—they bring back so many beautiful memories! The reception photos are especially fun; I love looking at everyone’s faces in the background. She truly captured the heart of our day. Couldn’t love them more!

tures, she was such a pleasure to work with, and her work is just absolutely amazing.

tographed and was open to our ideas. Recommend! 100 %!!

ding planning simple. My husband is not a fan of taking pictures, and she made him feel so comfortable and at ease and he actually had FUN! We cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us. We can hardly wait to see our album!! We would HIGHLY recommend Mrs. Crystal for her talent and dedication. She is THE complete package!!

e was and I appreciated it so much, she knew all the details of my wedding and photographed them so so well! In the middle of my reception, my dress would not stay attached to the bustle, but Crystal pulled me aside and rigged it up for me so that for the rest of the night I had no complications, if that doesn’t speak to her character I don’t know what does! 10/10, I would recommend her to anyone!!

round. Amber and Tyler felt so comfortable being with you. Keep being YOU and never change for anyone. You are truly a professional along with the kindest soul.

ious memories for us, and we are so grateful. Not only do I love all of our pictures, but I also so enjoyed the experience of working with her. She made the whole process so easy and fun! I cannot thank her enough, and I look forward to working with Crystal again in the future.

ing day so perfectly. We are in love with our pictures and how you captured all of the small details that are really the “big” details. You are phenomenal at your job, and you have a special gift. It also meant so much to me to have a dear family friend be such a huge part of our most important day. Many thanks to you - it was everything we dreamed of and more! Love, Hannah & Camron Pierce

you and Brenna for making our wedding day a dream come true and for us to be able to relive it over and over again through each image. I can go on forever but I'll cut to the chase, you're the best and it was so lovely working with you. I'm ready to fill up my walls with all of these memories!

aphs were beautiful and captured the sweetest memories from our wedding that we will cherish forever.

b! I cannot say one bad thing about her. So incredibly happy I decided to work with her! :)

uring every session. Her work is absolutely beautiful and I am so glad that I chose her to photograph my special day!

uly captured us as a couple. I highly recommend her to all individuals I know that are getting married soon. Again thank you so much for everything. We were blessed to have her on our special day!

ch a fantastic job of capturing the joy and love that we overwhelmingly felt that day! You made sure to get photos of families and couples along with all the great candid shots. Some of our friends and family have suggested that they should be in magazines! We LOVE them! Thank you and Brenna again for all your hard work!

e and my entire wedding party feel so comfortable, and during the reception you didn’t even tell they were there and the BEST pictures came from that part of the wedding! Hands down one of the best! Will definitely be using her again!

d us into her studio and spent time getting to know us and what we could expect if we chose her for our wedding. We were so early in our wedding planning and Crystal had a full list of vendors that she has worked with in the past and highly recommended. We found almost all of our vendors down to the bakery through her and it made everything SO easy for us. Planning a wedding in the midst of a pandemic was stressful enough and when the time came that we inevitably had to push our wedding back, we knew Crystal was our non negotiable. We reached out to her first to reschedule and we were able to easily swap dates. Not only that, she came through for us again and recommended a venue to host our reception because our original venue was booked! Crystals professionalism and personality is unmatched. Everything we could have wanted in a photographer! Aside from how helpful Crystal was throughout the planning process, her work speaks for itself. We are very satisfied with the quality of the photos that were taken and the coffee table photo book we purchased is beautifully done. She is prepared with a set list of "must have" photos and she readily agreed to any suggestions we had that deviated from that list or additional photos we wanted. Pricing is very reasonable for how much work Crystal puts into making sure she captures beautiful memories and makes the day go as smoothly as possible for the wedding couples. We also had a second photographer, Brenna, who did an excellent job and was very personable as well. It was such a wonderful experience working with Crystal Sanderson Photography throughout the entire wedding planning process and I look forward to hopefully utilizing her talent in the future for other joyous occasions!

professionalism, charming personality, and, of course, her beautiful work. Crystal had thought of everything - even a multi-layered storage system to make sure our images would be protected for years to come. We booked Crystal and I’m so grateful that we did. Once the pandemic hit, most of our plans fell apart. The rules seemed to change every week and our heads were spinning trying to keep up. Throughout all of the chaos and changes, Crystal was an absolute treasure. She stayed calm and positive and found creative solutions to every situation. By the day of the event, she genuinely felt like part of the family. I know that you can see her work on her website so I don’t need to rave about how absolutely amazing her photos are (cause they are!) — but please do yourself a favor and set up a meeting with Crystal. I predict that you will fall in love with her the way my family did. She really is a treasure.

cited to have them as a keepsake for years to come!

annot wait to have you again in February! Thanks again!!!!! It will be a tough decision on which images to order!!!! Austin and I cannot wait to sit down together and enjoy reliving these amazing moments!

g our wedding date. She was more than just my photographer. I can truly say she is my friend!! She is so talented and gifted and now I can’t wait for her to take pictures when I have babies someday!!

ystal is so easy going. The pictures are absolutely beautiful & will be treasured for many many years. I loved looking through the final product and seeing pictures from her artistic viewpoint. Some of those unexpected beauties have become my favorite ones! After working with Crystal for all the wedding festivities, I feel like she's family! We will be going to Crystal for all of our picture needs, no doubt about that!

process easy and stress free! Out of all of our vendors, she was the easiest to work with and knew exactly when certain events needed to be photographed. My husband and I both feel that throughout our wedding planning process, Crystal became like family. She captured our wedding day perfectly, capturing every detail to a tea. Her photographs are so clear and the colors are beautiful. She planned the perfect wedding day timeline that help us capture all the special moments and even gave my husband and I extra one on one time to have a moment together before the crazniess began again! This wouldn't have been possible if she hadn't planned the perfect timeline. The strap on my shoe popped during my first look, and without hesitation she pulled out a sewing kit and fixed my shoe within minutes. She saved the day! We now have beautiful photos to help us remember our perfect wedding day. We cannot thank Crystal enough for all of her work and we can't wait to work with her again in the future!

instorm about photo locations that would maximize our schedule but still capture NOLA's romantic charm; and she was willing to step in and take charge in getting our large family together for group photos, directing who was in and who was out. Having her at the helm alleviated a lot of my stress on the wedding day. In the months leading up to the wedding, Crystal was very responsive to my questions. A few weeks before the big day, we worked up and modified a schedule, and with Crystal's expertise in shot locations and the logistics of moving a group around New Orleans, it was seamless. She and her second shooter showed up the morning of our wedding with a bubbly energy that carried throughout the day, and we have incredible photos to cherish. Crystal's hands- on involvement didn't end with our wedding day. She graciously worked with me to edit small details of our photos (i.e., removing a sewer hole in the Quarter) and spent considerable time assembling a photo album that includes all of our favorites. If you choose Crystal, congratulations, your experience with her will truly be the best you can get!

the first meeting with Crystal to the night of the wedding, she was the most professional, outgoing, loving woman... not to mention a fantastic photographer. Crystal and the second photographer, Misty, captured every special moment, and truly made our wedding night fabulous. We had such a blast working with you, and can’t for family pictures... we might put our hand in our pockets this time ;)

I love them so much!! Not only does she have such great quality photos, but her vision for all of our sessions (engagements, bridals and wedding) was wonderful. My reception photos are so great.. she captured all of the great moments and everyone having a great time that night! She is also the sweetest person and photographer I’ve ever met, which is one reason we love her! Crystal and Misty definitely helped our wedding day be an amazing one.. She has such a calming effect. It is obvious how much Crystal loves what she does and she’s so great at it! Highly recommended to all!

e if we asked for anything she would without question do it. Her personality is contagious and we would recommend her to anyone. She is truly amazing!

ng at her beautiful canvas’s she had hanging that she had taken herself. I guess you can say I’m pretty (if I should use the word) “judgmental” when it comes to quality and talent of a photographers work to call their self a professional. And I can truly say, I believe crystal was born a natural professional! Crystal also has YEARS of experience and it shows! I have high expectations when it comes to professional pictures and Crystal meets them every time, even when they are not my pictures!😁 she never fails to blow me away with her work. Lots of my friends who have had weddings said they wish they would have put their money into a better photographer. Because a “picture is a picture” right?... Wrong. Know what you are putting your money into. You will NOT regret hiring her. My wedding day finally came, and of course, I had my number one wish to have Crystal as my photographer. People would often tell me before the wedding “make sure your photographer gets a picture of this or that” or, “make sure your photographer gets a picture of you with this person or that person” and my response was always “Crystal got that. She knows what she’s doing.” I had no worries or doubts about her. I just got my pictures back from her and of course, I am HIGHLY satisfied!❤️

. Crystal was always in contact with my husband and me about any wedding developments. She spent half a day taking several photos of the two of us in various poses and styles at the Dansereau House in Thibodaux. On the day of the wedding, she took hundreds of beautiful photos of my husband and me before, during, and after the wedding. I was worried that she may be exhausted from all the commotion, but she remained professional throughout it all. She even made sure that I felt comfortable during some of the more chaotic moments. Crystal has still remained in contact with me even after the wedding in order to ensure that my photos are properly delivered. When I let her know that I had not received my digital photos before the week-long window expired, she sent me a new certification link within the day. Throughout the year of planning and celebrating my wedding, I never had any issues with Crystal. I would highly recommend her for any couple who is looking for a talented, caring, and dedicated photographer.

was forming between us all. And then the wedding day drew closer...our chosen date turned out to be the exact weekend of an impending hurricane. Throughout having to make emergency backup plans, the band canceling, loosing the location of where both my groom and I were going to get ready, and so many other small bumps in the road Crystal took it all in stride! She was one of the only constants in the planning process. I truly feel that with Crystal’s professionalism but also amazing personality, we can look back through all of our pictures and remember the true reason for our wedding. We can see the faces of those who loved us enough to endure the storm. And we get to cherish all of the spectacular fun that was had at the celebration afterwards. Crystal took our crazy, monumentous day and helped us to weather the lows and the highs. There’s no one else that we both would’ve rathered at our side. I can’t even began to imagine how good she must be in capturing a typical wedding day!

n upbeat attitude throughout the whole photography session! We genuinely enjoyed having her apart of our special day!!

Sanderson Photography knows exactly what they are doing and they have fun doing it!!

most truly AMAZING pictures to show for it! I loved every single one of them! Her personality is sweet and bubbly (just what we wanted in photographer) and is so helpful when it comes to planning! We had a whole timeline for that day. It went by so smooth and a big part of it was because of crystal! I’d recommend crystal and her wonderful crew to anyone getting married or any event! She is truly the best!

job duties throughout the entire process to make sure your vision is coming to life. She became my confidant and go-to person for everything. I found myself both crying and laughing viewing the pictures. Her integrity is a blessing for the wedding industry.

ies & what to expect throughout our planning. Prices are comparable to other photographers in our area. She was our choice because she made us feel like our wedding was important to her and that she would do everything in her power to make our day wonderful. Very informative and works with your schedule.

best day of our lives! Crystal is hands down the best. She makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed. And her assistant Misti was fantastic as well. I would recommend her to everyone I come in contact with.

which I was not expecting and I just want to look at them over and over again! From the time she arrived at our getting ready location to the end of the reception, the variety she shot is incredible! I have received SO many compliments on the clarity and quality of my wedding photos. On top of her awesome photography skills, Crystal is one of the sweetest people ever and it is obvious that she loves what she does!

We HIGHLY recommend Crystal to any and everyone. 💕

e shoes, the dress, the hair/makeup, the jewelry. I didnt even have to request it advance! I didnt even notice her taking half of the shots she got - she blended right in and made us feel completely comfortable. We did request a 2nd photographer for the boys as they were getting ready. My boys are a rowdy bunch and they loved Titus. He was a perfect fit for our group as well. We got well over 500 photos afterwards and I love every single one. I would highly recommend Crystal and only wished I lived in NOLA so we could use her for any other events/occasions we'd want pictures for.

f the easiest to work with out of all of our vendors. On the day of our wedding I remember being so nervous right before we left for the church and Crystal completely calmed me down. We are 100% satisfied with all of our pictures and would hire her again in a heart beat! Awesome awesome photographer!!!! She is one of the sweetest people I've ever had the privledge of getting to know :)

l but very personable, which is extremely important when choosing someone for this important part of the wedding experience. She is quick to respond to emails and makes sure you're always up to date on everything you need to know about the process. We paid her in small installments along the way, and she always notified us immediately when she received a payment and sent an updated invoice with each email. My phone conversation with her a few days before the wedding put me at ease that everything would go smoothly. She had already worked out a timeline but was willing to make changes if we wanted something different. I cannot tell you how fantastic the day of the wedding was. Crystal spent time with me and her second shooter, Sherry, was with my husband. He talked a lot about about great Sherry was and how easy it was to have her there. She was able to get some fantastic shots of the boys. Crystal was present in the whole experience for me. She captured some moments I didn't even realize she was in the same room for. They did a fantastic job at the ceremony and the reception. We love every single one of our photos. I don't know how many people say that, but we truly did love every one of them. We let her choose when to do a photo in black and white and when in color. There is't one of those decisions that we don't agree with. Choosing Crystal for our photography is one of the best wedding decisions we made. She made us feel so comfortable. It actually felt like she and Sherry were familiar friends who were supposed to be a part of the day. My husband and I have already said that we hope to have other photography needs so we can work with Crystal again.

res I could have asked for! We fully intend to use her again for future family pictures.
