  • More Than a Photographer — Family for Life

    I truly cannot say enough good things about Lavel and her team. From start to finish, working with her was an absolute dream. It was such a relief and joy to work with a photographer and team who operate at such an incredibly high level while still making the entire experience feel personal, calm, and fun. Our engagement photoshoot was to die for—I fell in love immediately with Lavel’s artistic eye and the way she captures moments so naturally and beautifully. Leading up to the wedding, the detailed prep meeting made all the difference. By the time our wedding day arrived, we didn’t have to think about a single thing; everything felt seamless and effortless. We receive compliments nearly EVERY SINGLE DAY on our wedding photos, and that is entirely thanks to Lavel, Amri, and Meghan. Their artistic vision captured our love perfectly. From the styling, to the emotion, to their incredible ability to coordinate a massive 17-person wedding party on a staircase and turn it into something truly special—every detail was handled with care and expertise. You don’t realize how photogenic you really are until you work with Lavel. She has a gift for making you feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely yourself in front of the camera. We now consider Lavel family, and we will absolutely be booking her for every milestone in our lives. If you’re considering her for any lifestyle or wedding or literally any life moment—book her. You will be forever grateful you did.

    As the father of the bride, I felt a great deal of responsibility to find the right photographer that would delivery an excellent record of our daughter's wedding, mesh with her vision and create a sense of calm in the process. I was so pleased with Lavel and her team. From the first meeting with the bride and groom, she fit perfectly. She was so calming and uplifting and supportive of their vision. She was organized and the day of the event, she fell into the background, avoiding any stress or distraction, but somehow captured every important moment and guest. The photos and albums were absolutely stunning and artistic and beautiful. From her professionalism to her process to the product to the price, I recommend enthusiastically without reservation.

    Lavel was recommended to us by our Wedding Venue (El Sueno in Ruidoso, NM). Your wedding photographer is the most important vendor you will hire and entrust to capture your day that will fly by all too fast. Lavel and Megan went above and beyond our expectations and were a joy to have around. Her work in 5 words is Timeless, Detail-Oriented, Professional, Creative, Skilled. Looking back at our wedding photos is a time capsule bringing us back to the bliss of our day. If you're looking for a photographer that is flexible, will hustle for you, laughs with you through the awkward photos, and captures such beautiful moments. Lavel is the best without a doubt. She's so quick to get back with you on anything you might need, we cannot express how grateful we were for her! Lavel and Megan were a blast to have, everyone still compliments us a year later on what an awesome photographer we had. :) 3

    Lavel and her team are phenomenal and captured the most amazing photos of our wedding! She is wonderful to work with, very professional, and extremely talented. We love the way our photos turned out and look forward to viewing them for years to come. The process of booking with her was very streamlined. I started by filling out an inquiry form on her website, after which we had an in person consultation to go over details. There are several different packages that work for different budgets, and she worked with us to accommodate our needs. Lavel and her team were very responsive and helpful answering all of our questions as well. The engagement session was a great way to familiarize ourselves with the process and get comfortable with Lavel. Both me and my husband are camera shy, but she made us feel so comfortable and provided just the right amount of guidance for our photos. She helped make it a truly memorable and enjoyable experience! Lastly, the quality and editing of the photos is fantastic. We love having access to our entire gallery and love her style as an artist. Highly recommend Lavel Marie Photography for all your photography needs and we would definitely book her again for future shoots!
