You're about to have the best day of your life. You have poured your heart into this day- and you deserve a photographer who will pour her heart into capturing it.
Let's face it- you probably won't remember every second of your wedding day- and so every photo becomes a priceless piece of your story.
Looking back on these moments in years to come, I want you to feel your whole soul light up as you remember moments you thought you had forgotten.
You deserve photos you love more than any you've ever taken. Ones you just can't stop looking at.
Ones that make you feel like your most gorgeous self.
That's what I love most about what I do.
Outside of weddings, you'll usually find me wandering antique shops, traveling somewhere new, reading a good book, and waiting eagerly for film scans.
Seventeen years of photographing weddings have taught me one thing above all else: no single style of photography can tell the whole story of a wedding day.
Some moments ask for a quiet observer. Walking down the aisle. Your dad seeing you for the first time. Your grandmother wiping away tears. Your friends laughing during dinner. Those moments deserve to unfold naturally, without interruption.
Other moments deserve thoughtful direction. Portraits that feel effortless. Knowing where to place your hands. Finding beautiful light. Creating images that feel elegant without ever feeling overly posed.
My style is about movement, emotion, and real memories.
My approach gives my couples enough space to share a real memory together, with enough direction to look their best.
Film is an essential part my work. I love its honesty, its color, and the nostalgia woven into every frame. Rather than treating it as an add-on, I photograph with film throughout the day wherever it naturally belongs.
When you open your gallery years from now, I hope you see more than beautiful photographs. I hope you remember how your mother looked fastening your dress. The way your partner smiled at you across the room. Your friends on the dance floor. The quiet moments you never knew happened, and the ones you'll never want to forget.
If that's how you'd like your wedding remembered, I'd love to hear from you.

Not only were her photos lovely, but it's clear she really cares about the people she works with. She was so invested in everything along the way, from helping me pick outfits for our engagement shoot to the wedding timeline.
I could text her anytime, and she was incredibly responsive. We interviewed several other photographers, but no one felt as warm, genuine, or as generous as Leana with their care."
Araceli (the KNot)
Before the wedding, she would gladly give me advice, make me feel excited and confident every time I shared a detail about the wedding, and most importantly, she made me feel excited to have her around at our wedding.
This was the most important because I felt 100% comfortable with her from the second she arrived to take photos. She flawlessly blended into the event- she was never intrusive and allowed us to enjoy the most important moments of the day; the photos taken during those moments are stunning!"

From the very beginning, she was organized, knowledgeable, and so easy to talk to. She helped with planning, stayed on top of communication, and made the whole process feel simple and stress-free.
We’ve received nonstop compliments on our photos. People are still talking about them. If you want someone who genuinely cares, knows exactly what she’s doing, and goes above and beyond, she’s the one you want with you on your wedding day."
