ABOUT THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT Marianne Mumford, landscape architect, believes strongly in surrounding herself with customers who want to be proactive in their gardens and colleagues who are creative, spirited and can enthusiastically work as a team.

According to Marianne, the firm “ensures that your vision for your garden grows into a reality by maintaining our commitment to focus on the experience.” Landscape Images enjoys sharing with clients an atmosphere of creativity and learning, from the process of design to the excitement of that first walk through the finished garden. As Marianne explains, “We are dedicated to presenting a fulfilling experience for you to enjoy during that process and in the way your garden makes you feel upon completion.” Landscape Images listens to client needs, explores possibilities and responds with solutions. This unique approach has distinguished Landscape Images as “the premier landscape company of choice” in the greater New Orleans area.
