I’m Angelina, the owner and creative force behind L’Arbre de Vie (LADV), where we specialize in capturing the essence of weddings and events through our lens in timeless content creation. While we’re based in Covington, LA, our hearts and lenses travel wherever love and life lead us. 🫶✨
My inspiration is deeply intertwined with the vibrant spirit of New Orleans⚜️, where the “joie de vivre” and rich blend of cultures beautifully celebrate life, love, and everything in between. As a visionary and a romantic at heart, I owe some of my imagination to the classic Disney tales that sparked my passion for capturing true love through my lens (because we all deserve our own fairytale).
I’m fortunate to have turned my passion into a thriving business, one that’s dedicated to preserving the beauty of life’s fleeting moments. Whether it’s a wedding, an event, or a brand story, my mission is to create content that resonates long after the moment has passed. I’ve often heard and felt myself that we wish something like this existed sooner. That’s why we’re here: not to make you experience important moments through a lens, but to allow you to fully live them—with your eyes, your heart, and your soul.
A few things you should know about me:
• Pronunciation: [lahrb-ruh duh vee]
• LADV translates to “The Tree of Life,” a symbol of deep personal significance for both me and my brand.
• Born and raised in NJ, I made Louisiana my home in 2015.
• I’m even in the coldest season.
• I’m all about storytelling and building genuine friendships with those I work with.
• I love traveling and savoring local cuisine.
• Collecting luxury perfumes is my guilty pleasure.
I’m excited to continue growing our community and reaching people who resonate with celebrating life’s beautiful moments.
