You made it! Ah man, we're gonna be besties!

David Jesse

Well first off, my name is actually David Goldman... wait, "not Jesse" you ask? Nope.

Jesse is my middle name and even though the overwhelming majority of my family in New Orleans call me David-Jesse, I usually just go by David. Unfortunately, David Goldman Photography was already taken, so back to my southern roots I go!

I am a Husband and Father and love my family dearly. I also have a passion for telling stories through photography which I stumbled upon almost 10 years ago while working for a non-profit. I never would have guessed that it would lead me to where it has today, having shot close to 300 weddings both here in the states and around the world.

I love to travel, try new foods, meet great people, go on adventures and discover hidden gems of nature. It's all part of the adventure we call life and I soak in every second of it!
