Leslie was absolutely phenomenal as our wedding photographer! She went above and beyond to capture every meaningful moment with such creativity and attention to detail. Every photo truly reflects the joy, love, and spirit of our day. Leslie made us feel comfortable and at ease, guiding us naturally while letting our personalities shine through. The final images are simply stunning, and we will treasure them forever. We’ve continued to stay in touch after the wedding and can’t wait to work with her again for any future photography needs. We cannot recommend Leslie enough—anyone would be so lucky to have her as their photographer. Thank you Leslie for making our memories last a lifetime!

Our experience with Leslie was incredible. My husband and I hardly ever take professional photos, so we were a bit nervous to take our wedding pictures. However, Leslie made us feel totally comfortable though out the whole day. Leslie also took into consideration every detail we wanted to be captured through photographs, since we weren’t going to have a videographer. We absolutely loved our photos and the way Leslie was able to capture everything we wanted and more. We can definitely look back at our photos and relive our wedding day all over again. Couldn’t have chosen a better photographer for our special day. Leslie is the wedding photographer you need. 🤍

Leslie is the best! She radiates sweetness and so beautifully captured our big day. She genuinely listens in each meeting, and is so easy to talk to. The relationship that she creates is one that makes the wedding so enjoyable— and you get the vision you want because she remembers what you wanted! We wanted photos that were light, airy, and timeless— her touch is exactly that. I can’t stop posting the photos and choosing which ones to post has been hard because I love them all!! You will not regret choosing Leslie for your big day- you can feel the love and energy through the photos. She also offers incredible print options and we got our favorite photo in a stunning acrylic!! Overall, pictures are one of the biggest parts of a wedding and she delivered on every front. She created a schedule that was perfect for the flow of the wedding, she could get people where they needed to be, she captured moments that I missed during the day (and I love to look back on now), and of course all the important moments!

Trust Leslie with your most special moments!

There’s an important distinction between someone who takes photos and a photographer. Anyone can take a photo, while a photographer captures what’s intangible: the feelings of the moment, the love, and the joy.

Leslie is a photographer. She is a master of her craft, and what’s truly unique about Leslie is her strong appreciation and eye for details, her thoughtfulness and intuition, and her mission to create a timeless legacy of our love.

We hired Leslie for our engagement and wedding photos, and the photos speak for themselves—they are absolutely breathtaking. We wanted to be able to look at our photos and feel what we felt in that moment. Leslie gifted us by achieving exactly that and perfectly capturing the magic of the most special day of our lives.

We will never stop singing her praises!

My wife and I can’t say enough positive things about Leslie and we feel so lucky to have had her as our photographer for our wedding. Not only did she make us feel incredibly comfortable and deliver beautiful pictures of our special day, but she also was there constantly reminding both of us to be present and soak in as much of our special day as we could. She was incredibly collaborative with our videographer which made the process of capturing 2 types of content more efficient, and she even jumped in and helped us plan the timeline of the day without being asked to. Leslie is someone who displays a great passion for her craft and it showed through her kindness for us on our special day and her detailed eye when capturing the special moments. We appreciate you Leslie!

If you are like me and don't know where to start with seeking a photographer, look no further! Leslie is the BEST! Not only did she make my husband and I feel so comfortable. She took the time to get to know us and really made the process easy & effortless. On the day of our wedding, she was awesome at directing our party even when they were being difficult. She also used her excellent coordination skills to make sure things were in order. This is what sets Leslie apart from other photographers, she wears many hats and is not afraid to get involved so our day can run as smoothly as possible. She kept in touch with us throughout the process and delivered on time & the wait was worth it! Many of our guests have complimented us on the beautiful photos that were taken on our special day.
