Wendy & Chris

All brides who care about photography know that Studio Tran is the best. They were the first vendor that I booked. I chose my wedding date based on which day they and my venue were both available. I chose Corine, because almost every photo of Studio Tran’s that I swooned at was taken by her. She was very easy to communicate with and was always quick to answer emails and to address any concerns. They are pros making sure way ahead of time what sort of shots you want, if there are any sort of family dynamics that they need to work with, etc.

The day of the wedding, Corine and Kacie went above and beyond what was expected from a photographer. From simple tips like “remember to bring your marriage license” and making sure that my groom had the right boutonniere, were just a couple of the many little things that they did. One of my bridesmaids asked, “Is she (Corine) your wedding coordinator?” I replied, “No, she’s just the photographer, but that’s why she’s best.” Kacie was amazing as well. She very enthusiastically held up treats to get our ring bearer’s attention (who happened to be a 15 year old some what deaf dog) to focus on the camera.

To be honest, like a kid waiting for Christmas morning to open presents, I anxiously awaited for my pictures to arrive. After the wedding, I walked away feeling unsure if I got the “Studio Tran” experience. I thought to myself, “Will my wedding look as good as all of their other work?” Your wedding day goes by so quickly, that for some of the photos I felt rushed. For instance, there was a particular wedding ring shot I wanted with our hands and our dog’s paw. Corine took a couple of shots and moved on to the next thing. At the moment, I was like, did she get the shot? Anyway, fast forward to the when I got my photos, and she totally got the shot! So, to all of my brides who are reading this, there is no need to be anxious. Corine is such a pro. She’s not rushing. She’s so fast and efficient that she gets the shot on the first or second try. I totally got the Studio Tran experience! The photos were amazing (except for my double chin and squinty eyes, but that’s not their fault ? ), and their service is impeccable. You can’t really put a price on capturing these memories, however Studio Tran is worth every penny.

Last tip: They use Nikon cameras, which the husband and I are fans of. They book up fast, so contact them ASAP! ~View Our Wedding

When I first got engaged, Studio Tran was the first vendor I booked – not kidding… literally 3 days after I got engaged. I knew that I wanted them for our wedding!

Working with Beebe on the day of our wedding was amazing. He is fast, and gets all the shots he needs and does it flawlessly. I have bragged about him to all my friends who are getting married in the upcoming year. I have gotten so many compliments on my pictures – people asking, “Who took these?” and “WOW! The colors in these pictures are amazing!” I would recommend him and Corine to any bride looking for a great photographer.

Thank you again for letting me relive my wedding again and again! ~ View Our Wedding

Rebecca & Quinton

I loved working with Studio Tran! They were very flexible in accommodating my schedule for my bridal portraits. I had spoken with them regarding the pictures I wanted before/after the ceremony and during the reception. The pictures came out amazing and my family couldn’t be more pleased with them. We also received the pictures within one month of our wedding! They were so professional during the ceremony and reception as well as fun to work with! I would definitely recommend Studio Tran for any photography needs. ~View Our Wedding

 

Nick & Kelly

Corine and Leslie did an amazing job photographing my wedding. They were friendly, easy to work with, and professional. I loved all the images they captured and have received so many compliments about our pictures. Some of my favorites were the candid ones we did not even know they took! We had so much fun working with them the whole night. Beebe also did a wonderful job with my bridal portraits. I felt at ease with him and he made the whole experience relaxing and fun. I highly recommend Studio Tran…they are the best!!! ~View Our Wedding

 

Troy & Rebecca

I knew way before I was engaged that I wanted to choose Studio Tran as my photographer. I would look at their blog frequently and they were the first vendor I booked after becoming engaged. Beebe was great at capturing our special day. He made everyone feel at ease and had so many creative ideas. I especially liked the wedding day timeline that they sent ahead of time. You could make special requests and I felt organized and prepared. We got the CD with all the pics on them and I have looked at them over and over to relive the night. Can’t wait to get my flush album that will display all the highlights we picked from our big day! ~ View Our Wedding

 

Jamie & Stephen

If you are looking for fantastic pics, professional photographers, and memories perfectly captured that last a lifetime…this is your team!!

I was introduced to Studio Tran a few years ago when they captured a friend’s wedding, and decided soon after seeing the final product that whenever I got married they would be the only group to shoot my wedding! And almost 5 years later, they did! I know that I ABSOLUTELY made the right decision!! I have looked at the proofs almost daily, I love them so much! And I have gotten nothing but compliments from friends and family.

Beebe and Ryan were fantastic to work with, and were great working with our wedding group. They were able to capture all of the highlights (including my dad coming down the Soul Train line!), without being obtrusive. And some of the sweetest moments that I didn’t even know were happening. The style of photography and artistic eye is exactly what we were looking for in a photographer. I couldn’t be happier with our choice! And can’t wait for them to shoot our anniversary, and family photos!

Thanks Beebe, Ryan, and Studio Tran! ~ View Our Wedding

 

Jessica & Thomas

We used Studio Tran for our June 29 wedding. Beebe was wonderful to work with. He made engagements, bridals, and the wedding as simple and seamless as possible. He took amazing and memorable shots. He placed us into flattering poses as fast as possible. Our pictures are amazing! It is going to be so difficult to pick which pictures to put into our photo albums and on our walls! We’ve gotten so many wonderful compliments on every single photo Beebe took during all three sessions. Book EARLY! We had to book him over a year in advance. It was one of the BEST decisions we made during the entire wedding planning process. I cannot say enough good things about him. HIGHLY recommend! ~ View Our Wedding

 

Aimee & Matthew

Corine with Studio Tran was an outstanding photographer for my daughter and our family.

Corine portrayed utmost professionalism and kindness from our first phone call inquiring about her services to deciding on our best photography package to preparing us for the Special Day to taking beautiful pictures of every moment on the Special Day and being patient and flexible post wedding.

Corine took beautiful and unique pictures during the prep at the Hotel Monteleone, the ceremony at St. Louis Monteleone, second lining around Jackson Square, and celebrating at Muriels. She was highly prepared, experienced and kind during the entire day and evening.

I highly recommend Corine for your Special Wedding Day. We are so happy we chose Corine to be such an important person during my daughter’s wedding.

Manoli & Christine

My wedding was in july and I had the pleasure of having studio tran photograph our special day. We had Corine and Ryan photographying and my experience with them went above and beyond anything I expected. Not only are they amazing photographers and capture the best moments but they are excellent at guiding you through the entire day. I almost felt like I had a wedding coordinator and photographer in one…it was awesome.

They are so experienced and know how much time everything takes. They are the kindest people but also know what they are doing and help crowd control and round people up for pictures. They have an awesome survey you fill out during planning stages that creates an entire timeline for the day and asks questions about family so they really get to know what kind of pictures you are looking for.

As far as the reception, they were equally as organized and on top of everything. I felt like everytime I looked up because I wanted a picture with friends, corine was right there waiting to snap a photo. We had a greek wedding and they really did an awesome job of getting in all the dancing pictures. They are the best photographers and hands down the best choice I made for my wedding day.

I also want to say a quick note about our engagement pictures. We did them with Beebe and he was equally as awesome. We were in the french quarter and he knew all the best spots to capture pictures. He guides you through the pictures and has awesome and creative ideas. We absolutely loved the pictures.

Everyone at studio tran is super nice and professional. Their experience with weddings is something that cannot be matched. I can’t wait to do my wedding post session with them!~  View Our Wedding

Cassie & Matthew

I could not be happier with our wedding photos thanks to Studio Tran. They captured every moment throughout the day and evening plus more! They did a great job of taking pictures of all the details, guests, and highlights throughout our wedding day. I knew when they did the pictures for a friends’ wedding that I had to have them because I was so impressed with the quality of the photos! The pictues make my heart happy when I look back and see how enjoyable the evening was not just for us but for everyone else!

Beebe and Corine are excellent photographers, we could not have asked for better!! The prices were reasonable and the quality was excellent. We had a lot of fun with Beebe during our engagement photo shoot and he got every photo we wanted on our wedding day. The photo books that we got with the Pink package are amazing and it didn’t take very long at all to get them. Thanks so much to Studio Tran for making our wedding day into memories we can cherish for years to come!! ~View our wedding

 

Brittany & Brandon

For July 12th wedding in the French Quarter, I knew I had to have Studio Tran. Their amazing reputation speaks volumes & their work does not disappoint. Beebe & Kacie shot our wedding and they were so awesome. They knew exactly what to do & what would look great and what wouldn’t. They even re-shot certain important moments to make it sure they were captured perfectly. We trusted them completely and ultimately our pictures came out great! Beebe & Kacie were fun and fit right in with everyone. They captured the most amazing day of my life impeccably & I couldn’t have asked for anything more.~ View Our Wedding

 

Melissa & Blaine

As an out-of-town bride (Tampa, FL), I had the feeling that finding a photographer would be a daunting task. So I started by Google searches and New Orleans wedding magazines. It seemed as though every time I would see a photo that totally blew me away, it always had the same name attached to it: Studio Tran. My mom and I flew to New Orleans in March 2012 (December 2012 wedding), and interviewed a few different photographers. We really liked all of them, but our meeting with Studio Tran was the last appointment of the day. Unfortunately, my mom wasn’t feeling well, and we had to cancel our meeting with Beebe and Corine. Even after all those meetings and browsing through all those portfolios, I couldn’t get Studio Tran’s photos out of my mind. Within minutes of canceling our appointment, I called them back and asked them if it would be too unorthodox to put down the deposit without ever actually meeting. They told me that was pretty common, seeing as so many New Orleans’ weddings are destination weddings. So, without ever meeting them or seeing their portfolio, I signed with Studio Tran. Best. Decision. Ever.

Over the next few months we stayed in contact, sending ideas and discussing possibilities. On the day of the wedding, Beebe and two of his assistants showed up, and it was as though they were old friends. Not once was it like someone I had never met was there to photograph the most important day of my life; it was really as though another group of family members had joined the wedding party. Beebe and his assistants were simply incredible. They were open to all our wacky, Pinterest-
inspired ideas, but were able to capture the formal portraits, tears, joy, and pure emotion all along the way. We had the stunning backdrop of the holiday decorations of The Roosevelt, but I have no I doubt they could make any event breathtaking. I cannot say enough about how much I loved Studio Tran. ~View Our Wedding

 

Katie & Matthew

Of all of my wedding vendors, Studio Tran was my favorite! There are no words to express how incredibly pleased I am with the way they captured my special day. From our engagement picture shoot to our wedding day, Beebe made us feel so comfortable and at ease. He did a great job of capturing every detail and an even better job of truly showing our personalities and our love for one another. In addition, Studio Tran was incredibly professional, organized and timely in all of their correspondence. I have a Type A personality, and I can be a little bit crazy when it comes to getting things checked off of my to do list. They were the only vendor who was actually ahead of me during the planning stages. They checked in and sent me timelines before I even contacted them. They made the entire process a breeze, which was invaluable to me during an overwhelming time. I can’t say enough good things about this wonderful company. I highly recommend them to everyone!

 

Frank & Erica

Eric photographed my wedding and I could not be happier that I chose Studio Tran. Eric and his assistant Kasie were so pleasant, fun and easy to work with. Eric’s photography skills are superb and I could not be happier that I chose Eric and Studio Tran. Eric and his assistant were very professional and helpful throughout the entire night. I highly, highly recommend to anyone looking for a wedding photographer to choose Eric and Studio Tran you will not be disappointed with anything. I could not be happier with all of my pictures…they did an amazing job!!! ~ View Our Wedding

 

Angie & Erick

Absolute best in town, hands down! We were extremely satisfied with Corine Tran and her team; if I could give them 10 stars I would!

We heard about Studio Tran through some friends and checked out the website. Immediately, we could tell the photography style was exactly what we were looking for. When I first met with Corine at her home, I was put at ease by her lighthearted easy-going personality which I knew would be important for getting good shots of us (we tend to look uptight and stiff in all pictures together lol). She took the time to answer all of my questions and even gave advice about local vendors I needed! And this was all before I even signed a contract!

Erick and I had an engagement photo session with Corine to ease into photos, get to know her, and to use some shots for our wedding sign-in book. We had an amazing product with excellent shots in front of the river, by the cathedral, through the city park, in the French quarter and with the trolley!! It was done so quickly and was painless-less! My husband was immediately at ease with Corine and we shared some good laughs that day; especially when I changed outfits half way through in the famous Tran Van ? On the big day,

Corine was a Godsend. She was punctual, professional, sweet and kind. She was the most relaxed person to have by me through it all. Although there were small mishaps, wardrobe malfunctions and other issues, photography was never one of them. She even jumped in and helped out which was totally not her job at all! She photographed the heck out of the bridal prep, grooms prep, ceremony, second line, and reception!! I am actually troubled we have so many great shots because I can’t seem to narrow them down for our photo book orders! Hire Studio Tran, it’ll be the best decision you could make. I am happy to share my experience if you need the extra info; I will continue to recommend them for years to come and cannot wait to hopefully take some family shots when we get pregnant ? ~View Our Wedding

 

Jessica & Matthew

I used Corine at Studio Tran for my wedding photographer and she was nothing less than amazing. She created many unique pictures with my bridesmaids and I as well as with my husband after the ceremony. Her and her assistant did an awesome job of capturing action shots of my guests and I during my reception which made it easy to relive the special day! Even my friends that had recently gotten married commented how much they loved seeing all of the action shots that they captured. I would definitely recommend them to any bride. They have the reputation they do for a reason and they definitely met my expectations 100%! ~ View Our Wedding

 

Jimmy & Rashim

Studio Tran was so professional and easy to work with! The photographers were on time and prepared to help us get the best photos! If it wasn’t for Studio Tran I don’t think we would have been able to stay on our timeline! They were our lifesavers! We are so pleased with every single photo which made choosing the photos for our album very hard! ~ View Our Wedding

 

Robert & Tracy

I simply cannot say enough good things about Studio Tran…Beebe and Corine truly are the best in the business, and their work speaks for itself. As soon as I decided to get married in Nola, I started looking for a photographer and came across their blog….I had to have them from that moment…no matter what the cost.

Beebe got back to me right away and answered any of the questions I had, and when we met him for the first time during our engagement shoot I felt like I had known him my whole life. He is funny, easygoing and really just put us at ease and made us feel comfortable.

Beebe took the most incredible pictures on our wedding day….we are still getting compliments on them. And our wedding album….is a masterpiece….and I look at it often! (we got their designer flush)

A year and a half after my wedding I still keep in touch with Corine and visit their blog on a weekly basis.

You will not be disappointed if you hire them as your photographer. Their work truly is one of a kind, and in m opinion….the best photography I have ever seen! I would give them 10 stars if I could! ~View Our Wedding
