Wild For Planners
Wow did we have fun filming and photographing the Wild For Planners convention! This group of ladies is truly inspirational, and we were honored to be a part of their inaugural retreat in New Orleans. Over 400 planning enthusiasts convened at The Marriott at the Convention Center to share creative ideas, motivate each other, and make new friends. Leading female entrepreneurs Erin Condren, creator of the Life Planner and Whitney English, creator of the Day Designer led the strong group of speakers promoting the message of community over competition. We surely left with a newfound attention to our daily goal setting and appreciation for the well-designed life (as Whitney would say). The video below sums up the weekend's events, and we aired it at the conference wrap up party (Planjama)...what a fun way to end Geaux Wild 2016!
Jennifer Ross of Pretty Neat Living shared her tips and tricks.

King Cake Festival
The whole crew was super pumped when we got the call from Team AD about capturing her performance at this year's King Cake Festival. It's so funny how the right time and the right place make for the perfect opportunity!!
BELOW is a blurb from this extremely talented songstress, AMANDA DUCORBIER.
““Sing baby, just sing” is the quote from Amanda’s late father that she built her entire musical career around.
By the age of 17, Amanda’s musical resume included work with a range of musical powerhouses in New Orleans, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. Some of her vocal influences range from artists such as Mariah Carey and Amy Winehouse to Etta James and Billie Holiday. This singer/songwriter’s sound is best described as “power soul pop.””
Amanda is a resident performer at the The Roosevelt Hotel, The Carousel Bar at Hotel Monteleone, and the Windsor Court Hotel in New Orleans.
