Engagement sessions are more than just a warm-up—they’re a chance for us to connect, for you to feel confident in front of the camera, and to create something beautiful together before the big day. It’s a fun, relaxed way to step away from planning and make a memory you'll love just as much as the photos.

Some of my favorite engagement sessions, from beaches to vineyards to downtown date nights.

Haley and Christopher are two of the sweetest and most genuine souls I have ever met. Haley is a former ballerina and Christopher loves the sax, and so it made sense their Paso Robles wedding was full of dancing, live music, and laughter.

A summer wedding at Cass Winery feels like stepping into an Italian daydream—where golden light kisses the stone façade and every corner whispers romance. With its huge old oak trees, lush cypress-lined pathways, and cascading blooms, this hidden gem in San Luis Obispo brings the magic of a destination wedding without leaving California.

Highlight Videos

Working with the only best associate videographers in the area I bring my couples a complete experience, with all my video editing done in house in my signature romantic and joyful style.
There is nothing quite like being able to see and hear the words, the music, the dance moves, the romantic kisses of your wedding day, all played out in a beautifully created wedding film. With each frame, we capture the laughter, the tears, and the spoken words, weaving them into a documentary style wedding video that you can revisit for years to come.
Let me help you hold onto and relive each laugh, hug, spoken word, and promise of your wedding day, giving you someting wonderful to look forward to after your wedding has come and gone. 

I love offering couples the chance to have their photography and videography all under one roof.

What could be sweeter than spending a day together strolling through a picturesque downtown, holding hands as you walk through the mission district in San Luis Obispo, and exploring the shops together! Follow this up with a delicious picnic by the lake as the sun sets, sipping champagne and laughing, eating strawberries and stealing kisses.
An engagement session that is a romantic date, with me tagging along as the third wheel with a camera, is always my favorite kind!

This adorable and sweet couple wanted to take engagement session where they met and began dating- beautiful Santa Barbara! We went to the iconic SB Courthouse and Leadbetter beach, wandered around downtown in the Funk district and watched the sunset over the beautiful Santa Barbara waves.

Ysra and Miguel flew into Santa Barbara for a spontaneous engagement session at the stunning Ritz Carlton Bacara. Ysra, looking gorgeous in a classic white dress and Manolo Blahnik heels, was a vision of beauty. We explored the resort, then headed to the iconic Santa Barbara Courthouse for photos. We ended the day with a sunset stroll along the beach.

Nicole had no idea that she was about to get proposed to! She believed she was modeling for me just for fun with her boyfriend Aiden. The secret was this was actually their proposal!
We spent the afternoon exploring the beautiful Chateau and hillside tower, changing into a series of beautiful dresses and drinking champagne, snacking on grapes and macaroons, and when sunset was close, Aiden dropped to one knee and asked a very suprised and happy Nicole to be his bride.

relaxed photos of the natural you

Through my photojournalistic approach to imagery, I'll capture the story of you so you can look back on these memories for years to come.

- Lisa and George

"From the moment we met Leana we knew we had made the right choice. She gave us so much expertise and helpful guidance both on our engagement shoot and leading up to our wedding day in san Ynez, and she made taking photos with our giant, crazy families so easy and stress free."

- Steven and Kara

Leana is as experienced as it gets when it comes to shooting weddings, and this really appealed to us. Knowing we had someone who could cover all the moving parts of our day while also not taking forever to get the photos we needed, that really mattered. And it paid off because our photos are incredible and Leana rocked!!"

- lin and jereme

Being a couple with different skin tones, we wanted to make sure that our natural skin color would look great in our photos. We also saw so many trends in wedding photography and we wanted a style that would not be outdated in five years. We found Leana and we love the way she captured us! Her photos are so pure."
