Lake Charles Photographer — Unscripted, On-Location Sessions
Real stories, real SWLA. Book your session today.
Short Notice? No Problem. Need a headshot or branding session fast? I often accommodate last-minute bookings. I can’t guarantee every request, but I’ll always do my best to fit you in—no stress, no judgment.
I’m Dalton Barron—a creative photographer rooted in Southwest Louisiana.
My approach? Unscripted, on-location, and honest.
After years photographing SWLA weddings, I bring the same artistry and storytelling to portraits, headshots, and branding for anyone who refuses to be average.
I believe the best photos happen where you live, work, and create—not in a studio.
If you’re ready for images that feel like you, let’s talk.

On-Location, Always.
No studios. No fake backdrops. All sessions are shot in locations that matter—your workspace, your favorite part of town, or anywhere that feels like you.
