Darian and Katie are the creative duo capturing the raw, authentic, and unforgettable moments of each wedding day through both photo and film.

Meet the Storytellers Behind the Lenses

Nola Wedding Photographers and Videographers

On a road trip to Fairhope, AL, we had an epiphany: Brides were struggling to coordinate photography and videography separately, and we had the solution. We officially merged our talents to create a streamlined, stress-free experience for couples looking for a cohesive visual narrative of their big day.

The Wedding Chronicles was born from a shared passion for storytelling and capturing love in its most genuine form. 

What started as a happy coincidence—being hired separately for the same weddings—became a thriving partnership.

A skilled photographer and behavior analyst, Darian blends creativity with a keen eye for candid, meaningful moments. Her goal is to craft timeless, emotional imagery that tells each couple’s unique love story in a way that feels authentic and unforgettable.
