What Other Are Saying
Client Love
"I needed Executive Headshots right away for my Law Firm. We called the studio and the Photographer there, had us booked the next day. My Executive Headshots are great. I look good on our companies web site - especially compared to some of the other people up there. Vicki made sure my all the details were in place and then we started taking Photos. She photographed a good variety too. I couldn't decide which one's I liked better. So I got a few! She made it easy and I didn't feel like I was going to the dentist." -Alex Schienfeld "How great was that? Well, we decided to finally get things done right and hired a Photographer and a Graphic Designer. We hired New Orleans Photo and she helped the designer every step of the way. With all the changes and things we needed and wanted to do, Vicki and Glen were very accommodating. We worked in the studio for a few days, then went to the Bayou so we could get that Louisiana feeling into our web site. Vicki had all kinds of ideas as to where to shoot and we went with it. We had alligators, birds and everything Louisiana in our mix of photographs. Which enhanced all of our Marketing Materials that reflected New Orleans and Louisiana. It continues to be a great experience." -Sandra Wasella

Testimonials
John Waldmer, Engineer
"Stanwycks gave me and my team great Headshots. She came tour office, set up and we got started. We shot 10 employees and then did some of our Installations around the plant, They look Great. Our Website is so much better!"
Billy McConnel, Public Speaker and Actor
"I am a Public Speaker, also do Voice Overs and from time to time do commercials. I needed headshots but didn't want to have just one look or one headshot. Stanwycks Photography did my Headshot's and we did several looks both in the studio and we went to some locations that Vicki suggested. I created a headshot that had the main photo with 3 more images. My card looks great and it shows more of my personality. The thing is one wants to get noticed and sometimes stepping out of the box is just what you need. I love my headshots!"
Jenny Wallace, Model and Actor
"I didn't know hat I wanted to do, Model or Act? I called the studio and they came up with several suggestions so I could try to do both. We did Headshots, full body shots, different outfits, made a comp card, and a portfolio. I have everything I need to get to work... But! the best part is I am working at both acting and modeling. It's a great start and I owe it to that studio on Tchoupitoulas Street. I am discovering my dreams!"

So you want to become a model
So how do you get started to become a model? Many have asked us over the years as they are attracted to the glamour and the exciting work. If it were so easy to Model, everyone would be doing it, which is why everyone's not. Modeling is hard work. Attention to details and how you manage your life; diet, exercise, grooming, etc. are important. Keen attention to detail and trends are absolutely key to any success. The competition for modeling is fierce. A Model must be strong and have to deal with rejection. On any given day an agency may be looking or not looking for your look.

The New Orleans Workshop(s)
In New Orleans Style Workshop's we spend time dedicated to creating images of New Orleans. New Orleans is filled with color, sights and sounds, (some very unique sights, for sure) like no other place in the country. We have a class at the start of the day, and then venture off to see and feel as much of New Orleans as we can in our workshop time together. Vicki Stanwycks is with you every step of the way working with you to create beautiful images and see the New Orleans landscape, and the finer points of interest. We can Explore the French Quarter, Grave Yards, New Orleans Architecture, Fishing Areas, Local People, etc. if you want to experience New Orleans and Capture the local color, culture and flair of it's people, this workshop is for you! Different options are available as listed below, based on what you want to see and your time frame. Give us a call and we can discuss the detail's...
Most Popular New Orleans Areas
New Orleans Garden District
New Orleans is known for it's historical homes especially in the Garden District area. The Architecture Styles of New Orleans are rooted in the Garden District including The Famous Author, Ann Rice, "Interview with a Vampire." The Historic homes that can be seen and photographed are a taste of history as beautiful and as colorful as ever, including the beautiful styled Iron Fences - huge Oak Trees that line the New Orleans streets as an example. We can see one of the famous cemeteries as shot in the TV Series CSI New Orleans. The history and images to be gotten are a part of the New Orleans history you don't want to miss. See the street cars that run along St. Charles Ave and explore the Avenues, the Boutique areas of Magazine Street... A very interesting Part of New Orleans Culture for sure.
The Downtown Fauberg Marigny Areas
We go and explore the Marigny areas of New Orleans which are just below the French Quarter where you can see a different side of New Orleans History as a work in progress. Many artists live in the Marigny areas. NOCCA a famous arts school for high school students is housed in this area, offering much inspiration for students. Sometimes a New Orleans Brass Band can be seen performing on the streets of the Marigny. We also explore the Esplanade Ave. and it's architecture and color... and venture into parts of Treme and off to some of the older parts of town featuring a different cultural experience.
The Uptown Areas of New Orleans
Much to see in the Uptown areas of New Orleans. We will start exploring some of Southern Architecture and large structural frontal Columned homes, including architecture along Prytania and St. Charles Avenue's. We venture off into the University areas showing the colleges nestled in the uptown parts of town, including the famous Audubon Park & some of it's attractions, Oak Trees & bronze statues. Then off to photograph some of the areas that some of the locals see and do - perhaps a little differently than the tourist areas of town... Where ever we go in New Orleans it's filled with color and culture unlike anywhere else in the country.
The Famous New Orleans Cities of the Dead
One could spend days photographing in the New Orleans cemeteries. There are many cemeteries in New Orleans and we focus on the most interesting ones for photography. As New Orleans is only 8 feet above Sea Level Tombs need to be above ground. These historical structures and statues make for some very beautiful imagery, colorful and monotone photography. We start in the Garden District seeing one of the most widely filmed Cemeteries to the TV and in the Movie industry. You will see different styled historical tombs. Then we venture off to several Areas featuring these interesting historical Grave areas which houses some very beautiful Statues. New Orleans cemeteries are huge, historical and offer a taste of history you won't find anywhere else.

The French Quarter - New Orleans Workshop

Understanding Exposure, Light, & Color, Your Camera | Weekend Workshop
Understanding Exposure, Light and Color - Photography Weekend Workshop. There are Mysteries in photography, and light could be one of them... You have heard about it, you have read about it, you have even tried to understand it. You have photographed it, and have tried to make great photographs with it! We cover the basics of light and how to see, measure and track light. This workshop is for the natural light enthusiast who respects and loves the landscape and realizes that light has many aspects from color to capture. This workshop brings your photography skills to a better place. Knowing light and how to manipulate it through exposure, knowing how to see and track the light will make all the difference in your photography. This Weekend Workshop starts off in the classroom, dedicated to exposure, going over the basics and various techniques. We venture out into the field shooting different situations where we learn to use light to create mood, impact, maximizing color, black and white, people, exteriors, and mixed lighting situations. This workshop is for the natural light enthusiast who respects and loves the landscape, street photography and Urban life... We also incorporate night photography into this workshop. Light has many aspects that must be considered from color to capture. This workshop enhances your photography skills and helps you pinpoint the right exposure in camera so you can make better images in post production, on the computer for mixed media purposes. Light and exposure is essential to the beginning of any image. We spend time in class and apply what we have learned from class to hands on techniques while shooting on-location.
Photographing People On-Location | Bay St. Louis Weekend
Are you struggling with your camera, trying to get photographs of your children or friends? People photography can be your own unique history of your family and friends. Photographing people can be fun, demanding and truly satisfying. Stanwycks Photography offers Workshops and classes for Photographing People with your DSLR. When photographing people, all the functions on the camera can prove to make a big difference to the outcome of final images. It can be embarrassing to be playing with all the functions of your camera while your subject is in front of you. This Workshop will definitely help with that for sure. Learn how to create better images of people by understanding the functions of your camera, and seeing light. We love to create images for friends and family. Some want to make wall portraits and even give gifts. So many reasons that we want our photographs of people to be better. Vicki Stanwycks personally coaches and works with you to help you create better photos and understand your camera for the purpose of photographing for people; friends, family and even social media. We also discuss the different things you can do with your images after you have processed them, how to get prints, and other creative venues for your final images.
Creating your Workflow
Creating your Workflow - Weekend Workshop. Your Computer can make or break your final images. How you handle your images with your computer and software can dictate how you see your images in the future. Today's darkroom is the computer. In this workshop we help you create a digital workflow so you can process your images and get your final images to look more like how you saw the image when you created the photograph. Back in the day, Processing film and printing photographs took years to master and learn. Now, believe it or not, we still have to do the same, just differently. We use our Digital Darkroom - Computers and Laptops to process our images and printers to print the images - be it a home printer or a lab. This workshop is deigned for those who want to create a digital workflow using computers and software, for post processing, organizational purposes and image output for simple prints, to more extensive Giclee Printing and various Photo Products that are in most cases a click or two away. Let us help you with this process.

Photography in general alludes to fun and excitement
Photography also brings one to many places both in your minds eye and in the actual photograph. We travel to exotic places with the idea in mind to create equally exotic Photographs. We are travelers, we are adventure seekers and we want to see and do more and capture it through our cameras.
However if we don't know how to do it well, take Photographs
all that excitement dies fast when our Photographs don't look like what we felt and saw when we look at them. Good Photography creates a feeling and better photography get us excited. The old cliché that;
A picture is worth a thousand Words!
It's true... I would like to think and hope that some images are worth more words and some Photographs do all the talking. Wouldn't you like to be that Creator? Wouldn't you like to create pictures that speak to your viewing audience?
Take the first step with us at Stanwycks Photography and we will get you on that path today.
We will help you understand photography and it's language so much better. You will see!

What Other are Saying
What Other are Saying
"Fantastic Headshots for my office. They set up a studio at our location and everyone got photographed and looked great. Then we shot some images around areas of our office with the staff, including the Board Room, the lobby, some of the attorney's offices, etc. We wanted our website to reflect our People and our work place. Vicki did it, and we looked professional and the office shots reflected who we are and our professionalism. Within a few days we had our images, and off they went to our Web Designer. Very Pleased!" -Lauri Baker
