How do you define a state as rich, complex and historic as Louisiana? It’s a huge task but on this beautiful November day—I’ll give it a shot. The amazing scenery that Louisiana’s natural assets have to offer is the beginning of the following scenes, which show all of the sides Louisiana has to offer.
- Lake Bistineau
The perfectly clear waters and habitats that create our dynamic Louisiana environment are simply divine.
- Mardi Gras Day New Orleans

- Hodges Gardens
Alongside the amazing natural beauty of our state, there are these amazing hubs of human-nurtured spaces for Louisiana residents to enjoy.
- The Alligator
One of our state’s mascots, you don’t quite ‘get it’ in Louisiana if you haven’t come face to face with a gator at least once.
- La Cathédrale St-Jean, Lafayette, LA
The rich cajun cultural legacy that has had an incredible impact on the character of Louisiana has its roots in Catholicism, and the beautiful churches that populate these towns serve as a consistent reminder of that legacy.
- Intercoastal Waterway, Southwest Louisiana
The heartland of Louisiana, the gorgeous marshes in Cameron and Calcasieu parishes offer so much amazing bounty
- Front Street, Natchitoches, LA
The oldest continuous settlement in Louisiana, Natchitoches ability to preserve and celebrate their rich cultural and architectural legacy has paved the way for the breathtaking small historic towns that can be found across Louisiana.
- In a Boat on the Swamp
This POV to me feels like the exact way Louisiana must be experienced.
- Dancing at Festival Des Acadiens
Dancing to the music is a way of life here and the images make my heart sing!
- Oak Alley Plantation
The majestic beauty of the live oak trees that dominate the landscape throughout Louisiana comes to a pinnacle at this site.
- Crawfish Boil
Nothing says Louisiana quite like this.
- Sunset on the Red River
Father and son watching the sun go down on the pier. Can’t get more Louisiana than that.
