PBM Photography is phenomenal! I had spent almost a month looking at photographers around Lafayette but none compared to Paul's pictures. I knew he was exactly who I wanted and went for my consultation that lasted 3 1/2 hours. We talked about everything under the sun, which was extremely important since my parents are divorced and at the time did not get along. Paul, made sure everything was about me for my wedding day!! There are very few people that take the time to make sure you are fully relaxed on your special day. Paul did that and so much more. He treats you like a daughter and this is one thing that I really needed. The month before my wedding was an emotional roller coaster from allowing my dad to walk me down the aisle to my grandmother having a massive stroke a week before. During all this I felt like I had another dad/ friend that was there for me. I know you are reading this and saying yeah right he is just a photographer but with Paul you are so much more! My wedding photos were above and beyond what I ever expected. Every picture he posted I cried like a big baby. He captured the most important day of my life with all my friends and family. They were not just pictures, it was a story. A very special story since I had both of my parents at my side. He also doesn't leave when your amount of time is up. He stays for everything to ensure he captures everything about your special day. No one would ever stay hours longer than they are getting paid for to ensure YOU are going to have all your memories. I would recommend PBM Photography 1,000,000%!! You will never find a photographer that takes such breathtaking pictures and makes you apart of his family!! Thank you Paul!!

When I give mr. Paul five stars on every level I am not just trying to be nice. He was very helpful and a real sincere person that I knew I could trust. I always knew I didn't want just anyone taking my pictures. I wanted someone that would capture the personalities and events of the wedding. Although me and my family are pretty frugal with money, We felt the price was very worthwhile for such great pictures. I do not regret choosing Pbm photography at all! Thanks so much for capturing the biggest moment of my life!!! -candace Condren

Loved my photographer! Very easy to get along with. Schedule is flexible and always responds to phone calls, emails, or text messages. Gets your pictures to you very fast. Very professional. Super reliable. My entire family loved our pictures! I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for the most important day of my life!

From my first consultation with Paul, I was already sold on PBM Photography!! Being in many weddings over the years, I have met a lot of photographers but no one was as attentive & compassionate as Paul! He really showed a love for what he does and he made sure that I knew he was working FOR ME to be happy! & that is exactly what he made me!! He is so timely with his work! I have friends that waiting over 6 months to get even a sneak peek from their wedding photos- Paul gave me one in about 4 hours!! Within a week, we received all of my proofs from my engagement session and my bridal session. He was there for me whenever I had pointless, ridiculous questions... repeatedly! :) Planning a wedding does that to you! He was always so reassuring throughout the entire process. He became more of a friend than a photographer. I am currently awaiting my wedding photos and I know that I will be just as satisfied as I have been in the past!! I could not be happier with my choice of photographer & would recommend him to anyone!! Thanks Paul- you da best :)

AMAZING Pictures!! Ron and I could not have been more impressed with Paul. I know it's time consuming and sometimes frustrating looking through so many vendors for your wedding and reception (especially when, like me, you don't even know exactly what you're supposed to be looking for at first) See my findings below...One thing I immediately noticed about Paul is that he has this remarkable ability to capture emotion with his photography. -I found Paul to be very professional and patient.-For every appointment, he was always early and prepared. -Very personable; I felt comfortable around him right away.-Gives direction very well; easy to understand what he wants.PACKAGES-He has reasonable package prices (Including one with 6 hours of coverage for your wedding day, which I found to be the perfect amount and actually hard to find anywhere else). They either had 5 hrs. which was not enough or 7 hrs. which for us was more than needed.-He takes pictures of rehearsal to get camera adjusted just right for lighting before wedding.RECEPTIONWe didn’t have to ask Paul to get any shots (including the cute & funny random acts committed by family and friends). Every time I looked his way, he was already on top of it! It’s really a relief and wonderful to know for Ron and me that for years to come, we will be able to look back at all of those moments that remain special to us. We had so much fun with Paul and would absolutely without a doubt recommend him to couples getting married!!

Paul Mouton, photographer for PBM Photography, is not only an amazing photographer, he is an amazing person. He's extremely professional and super easy to work with. I can't ever remember a time actually enjoying having my picture taken until I worked with him. I was completely comfortable and actually had a blast doing my engagements and bridals! Paul builds wonderful relationships with his couples he is working with, and he truly gets to know them. Because of the personal relationship Paul creates with his clients, his pictures are better than just good, they are truly amazing. I loved every engagement picture and every bridal he took of me. One of the most stressful things for me during my planning of my wedding was choosing my bridal picture to display at the reception. The reason for this huge delima: They were ALL so beautiful! I wanted something unique for my bridals and Paul was more than willing to make that happen... We did some with my fiance's horse and they are breathtaking. Paul Mouton is defnitely, by far, the best in his profession! If you want someone professional, easy to work with, completely flexible and accomodating, for a reasonable price, PBM Photography is the only way to go!

Working with Paul was such an amazing experience. He keeps everything on such a personal level. We had such a fun time shooting our engagements and my bridals...both my husband and I had never been so comfortable in front of the camera and that was thanks to Paul. The pictures from our wedding are absolutely amazing...he captured every single moment of that special day so perfectly. It was so great to work with someone that was not only our photographer but in the process became a lifelong friend!

Paul did a great job from start to finish. He was thorough and thoughtful when taking and editing his pictures. He was consistently considerate to what we wanted. He was friendly and was an intricate part in keeping our wedding personal and fun.

Paul was a dream come true for this out-of-town bride. I had loads of questions from the very beginning, and he shot back responses that were clear and to the point right away. On the day of the wedding, he was at the venue before I was, and he remained on the scene, snapping away, throughout the evening. Paul traveled with us to the French Quarter and braved the street and the bar to chronicle the "after-party." The pictures just came in and we're all thrilled. Excellent quality and exceptional service.

My matron of honor actually chose PBM for us. She found Paul through the venue we were married at..The Manor. Ms. Nancy highly recommended him and even had some of his photos on display. She reassured us that working with Paul would be a very fun, enjoyable experience and the pictures would speak for themselves. We were definitely not disappointed with our choice. Our first experience with Paul was the engagement photo session. He made Joe and I very comfortable and though Joe and I weren't quite as creative as I've seen in some of his other couples pictures Paul used his creativity for the shots taken and they were beautiful! Oh and flexible he is for sure... We had to reschedule with him a couple of times and he always said no problem. The bridal photos were amazing, I had fun taking those. The wedding photos were beautiful and I can't wait too see them in person! We were very blessed to have Paul capture all of those memories for us.

From the start, Paul was an absolute pleasure to work with. I never liked having my picture taken and was naturally unsure if I would be able to calm my nerves about having my bridals taken. Paul quickly soothed my anxiety without even realizing it. His knowledge, expertise, and friendliness made my decision easy; I immediately booked him! It was the best decision I could have made; all of the photos came out beautiful beyond my expectations! He is has an artistic eye and knew exactly how to create both timeless and unique. Because of his personable character, I was able to feel comfortable and even excited to take the bridals! He captured so much more than the events of the wedding day, and when my fiance and I had a specific photo requests, Paul made it happen. I have already recommended him to several people and can confidently say I would use him again any day.

First of all let me just say that Paul is fabulous!! LADIES.. You have to be sure that your future husband, or whatever he may be to you, likes your photographer! They are sOOO much more willing to cooperate and enjoy themselves while they are doing. I had seen some of Paul's work which was what initially got my into his office. After meeting with him, my husband said "Wow, I really like Paul.. He's so down to earth." I immediatly called and booked Paul for all of our wedding needs. He gets your pictures back to you in a VERY timely manner and there are no boundries for you. Whatever you want, he will deliver.And not to mention, he is such a bargain on price compares to most photgraphers in our area. I've been watching Paul since before I booked him and with every event that he shoots, his work continues to flourish and grow. So do yourself a favor and book a photographer and possibly a future friend :)

Paul and his lovely wife flew all the way from Louisiana to South Padre Island, TX to photograph our beautiful beach wedding! He was there for me and my husband the entire weekend! It was so nice getting to know and visit with him and Michelle! Paul captured the most beautiful pictures I ever saw! in fact most of them you would think came out of a magazine! He by far has the most talent I have ever saw any photographer have in my life!!! Our family is looking forward to paul making our future memories into beautiful portraits! We plan to take a trip to Louisiana, just to do our next family portraits!!! THANK YOU PBM FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!!!

Choosing Paul to be our photographer was one of the best decisions made about the wedding. I first noticed his work when he shot my friends wedding. I thought WOW her photographer takes amazing pictures! So when I got engaged I emailed him, expecting an email in return. Instead in a matter of half an hour after I clicked send I got a phone call!! Major bonus points there. After a few emails here and there I set up an appointment and went with my mother in law. After talking and looking at pictures for about 2 hours, I knew he was the photographer I wanted. And I'm so glad I did. He made us feel so comfortable. And pricing was defnitely not an issue. You pay for what you get. If theres a certain request, he's willing to work with you on it and make it happen. You can truly tell he loves what he does and that what makes him so good. He captured every moment I wanted. And my husband the one who was never fond of taking pictures had an amazing time. I don't think we would have been this satisfied if we would have chosen a different photographer. Thanks to Paul we now have amazing pictures to go back and look at of our special day!

Words can not express how wonderful Paul of PBM photography is. He did a extraordinary job on my bridals and my wedding. He really knows how to capture the moment and catch the emotions that are shared. I would have to say he is not only a photographer but a friend. He listens to what you want as his client and delievers nothing less than what you expected. He was very quick to deliver our wedding photos. He is an amazing photographer and would recommend (have recommended) to anyone looking for a photographer.

I do not even know where to begin with PBM photography. For starters, if I could have given more than 5 stars I would have. Paul is more than just a photographer, he is someone who follows you on this wonderful journey capturing moments that will last a lifetime. I had many rough moments along the way and Paul always had an encouraging word for me. Through this journey, he has captured the love that my husband and I have for each other. Paul manages to take a photo of someone that shows the real them, not some picture that has been touched up and made to look like they are something they are not. Paul shows the REAL you, which few photographers can capture. Paul is not only a photographer but a friend, and someone who enjoys watching people in love. I have not seen my wedding pictures yet since my wedding was only a few days ago, but I couldn't wait to express how wonderful he really is. Also, Paul is very open to suggestions and listening to what YOU want. He was defintiely the best choice we made - well at least since I said YES!!
