While in Vegas, we held a few private consults 😀
Meet Laura and Jeromy… a ridiculously-in-love husband and wife photo team based in Louisiana. 🙂
They were curious to see how we interacted with people during a session… so, in the midst of the consult, we headed outside and took a quick walk around our hotel.
…and by quick I mean that these images were taken in about 15-ish minutes.
They’ve been married for 9 years… together for 14. The love, respect and trust they have for each other is obvious… if you’ve ever been in the same room with these two, you know exactly what I mean!
They’re from Southern Louisiana. 😀 Jeromy has a pretty killer cajun accent to prove it! I’d never heard anything like it before and found it fascinating. If you don’t know what it sounds like, do a YouTube search… It’s a combination of mostly French and English with African and Indian mixed in too (errr…. That’s what google told me…..). 🙂
Oh, I haven’t mentioned yet… the have five children. FIVE! The latest… twins! 😀 
Right at the very end of the quickie session, I had this kooky idea to really show their size difference. 😀 You see, he’s 6′ and strong…. while she’s 5′ and oh so petite. I said, “Laura, can you hang on to Jeromy like a backpack… hiding your face?” She did it perfectly! Then I said to Jeromy, “Look at me like… you know… my backpack’s hotter than your backpack… you gotta problem with that?!” And BOOM! Our favorite ❗ + ❓ Good work Team Reaux!
Then I walked up closer, “Laura, I want you to give me the ‘What?! You have a problem with hot backpacks?!! Bring it…’ ” I seriously couldn’t stop laughing about this! Actually, I’m still not done laughing about it! HAHAHAHAAAA!!!! Thanks you two for playing along with my silliness!

And hats off to you for pulling off so many great pics within 15 mins 🙂
If I am not mistaken, I am guessing the first image is not photoshopped, but that the shutter was just fast enough to catch the time between the smile and the smirk, but I could be wrong. I thought it was pretty amazing either way..
You hit the nail on the head with these two. Jeromy is my youngest son. He and Laura are truly amazing! Those 5 little ones they have are part of my heart!!! I love the pictures they are GREAT!
hahahah! The last “in action” photo had me cracking up. so nice to see how you work and also see how you get your couples to relax in front of the camera. oh and hello from cambodia! how are you doing?
Looooooooove!!!!!
Love this. I love how in 15 minutes you have the ability to bring so much amazingness. Just goes to show that if you give 110% of yourself then you’ll get 110% back. Great job.
this couple is so super awesome! these are awesome!!!
Oh my goodness how cute are they. I’d love to see what fun family moments of those 7 that you two could capture.
Hahaha 🙂 those pictures are awesome!!!
Ohhh how I wish I wouldve been walking by the MGM parking lot to witness this hilarity 🙂 Man oh man. Whatever you are doing while interacting with your clients stands out in your brand. Love you both.

I heart the back pack shots, but I love love the first image with the two different reflections. I looked at it for a good 5 mins trying to work out what was tripping me up with it!
