For me, it is more than just giving you nice pictures—this is about celebrating your love and capturing the fleeting and life changing moments that create your legacy.

   bout Leandra

A

I love getting lost in antique shops, stand up comedy and iced matcha lattes. I'm the daughter of a therapist & an entrepreneur, partner to the kindest man I know (who teaches me more about love every moment), and a friend to strangers that often turn out to not be that strange. We're all so deeply connected and this work has given me the gift of a constant reminder that life is stunning, complicated and fleeting. It's meant to be captured, held close, celebrated.

I will be there helping you touch up your lipstick after that pre ceremony snack (worth it), giving your hand a squeeze when the emotions are high and holding your veil if the ground is dirty. It is my vow (I also love puns) to give you everything I have and more on your day because you deserve a wedding day that not only looks, but feels fun & beautiful  

You'll always feel cared for here.

My dad & his grandparents, generations captured. Forever reminding me the importance of capturing your legacy.

Circa 1955, my dad & grandmother and her mother in the backyard taken by my grandfather. My dad captured my entire childhood, constantly in awe of life unfolding & why I fell in love with capturing candids. He gave me my first camera when I was 11. It’s a gorgeous feeling to know that he [dad] had someone capturing all the moments for him too. A moment in time I’ll hold close forever.

...do we have anything in common?

Where do I even begin? We booked her for an engagement shoot with our pup. The entire experience from booking her to even after receiving our full gallery of photos has been above & beyond. Leandra made us feel sooo comfortable in front of the camera and it felt like we were just hanging out with a friend the entire time. She directed us in a super natural way and she also got our pup to smile in front of the camera for almost every picture!! Leandra really spent the time to genuinely get to know us both individually, our love story, and the story we wanted to tell with the photos (which she absolutely SLAYED). She also sent voice notes and even gave her opinion on outfit choices before the shoot. The photos turned out timeless and just truly above anything we ever expected. She even sent our sneak peak photos in less than 24 hours. Doing our engagement shoot with Leandra has honestly been one of the best highlights during our entire wedding planning process. The entire experience was exceptional & Leandra is just an all around awesome human being.

"Leandra is absolutely incredible, and I'd highly recommend her to anyone."

We had the most amazing experience with Leandra because of her commitment to making us feel special and not "just another client." Unlike other photographers I've experienced, Leandra truly wanted to understand us & our love story. She made our story feel so unique, like it was the most beautiful love story she has ever told. Leandra takes the time to personally get to know you and your partner, she wants to know what you'd like to get out your experience with her by asking amazing questions like "How do you want our time shooting together to make you feel?"  She worked so hard to capture the essence of our relationship and those specific emotions that are important to us. She has an amazing way of making you feel like you're lifelong friends, just hanging out and celebrating together. Our entire gallery was stunning, emotional, and everything we imagined it to be...of course. Which did not surprise me in the slightest after the incredible time we had spent with her.

"Leandra photographed our rehearsal dinner and wedding, surpassing our already high expectations! She's exceptionally talented – has an eye for detail and composition, and captured emotional moments authentically.

Though neither my partner nor I enjoy having our pictures taken, Leandra put us at ease, helping us feel comfortable (and have fun) in front of the camera! The whole bridal party was highly complimentary of her energy.

Of course, we couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out–they belong in a magazine! Working with Leandra was an absolute dream.

So if you're looking for a wedding photographer, go with Leandra! "

"Working with Leandra was an absolute dream"

We could not have been any happier with choosing Leandra to photograph our wedding. The stress, anxiety, and chaos of planning during a pandemic was entirely mitigated by her thoughtfulness, creativity, and sheer talent. Neither of us particularly enjoy getting our pictures taken and typically would feel awkward in that kind of scenario; but Leandra made us feel so incredibly comfortable and confident which allowed us live in the moment together and truly enjoy the day! She has an infectious personality and is so easy to work with, so much so that I would refer to her as my friend more than a vendor. She really thinks of everything you may need and truly makes your big day all about you. She was an absolute delight to be with and took the most gorgeous pictures that we will be able to cherish forever. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic photographer and lovely person to capture their special day.

Where to begin… I cannot say enough wonderful things about Leandra. 2020 was such a difficult year for so many and, COVID aside, she walked the most difficult year of my life with me and my now husband. Our original wedding date was on May 2nd, 2020 and then COVID happened causing us to have to reschedule. We postponed to June 13th and my father got admitted to the hospital unexpectedly on May 21st, was in the hospital for 21 days and passed away on June 10th. Again, Leandra led with empathy in navigating our tough decisions and unexpected challenges and worked with us to choose a third date when we were ready. So finally on October 4th we were able to proceed with our wedding and she made the day (which I was expecting to be a very hard and emotional day) fun, enjoyable, and lighthearted and she knew exactly what to capture and when to capture it. She was so organized, prepared, and gave great direction and really made the day run smoothly.

I am so happy with how our pictures turned out and I’ve gotten so many compliments on our photographs. We were so thankful that we chose Leandra to capture our day. If you’re looking for a kind human and wonderful photographer, go with Leandra. You won’t regret it.

"If you’re looking for a kind human and wonderful photographer, go with Leandra."

I could never say enough high regards for Leandra and everything she did to make this day so incredibly special for us. She is everything you could want in a photographer and will make you feel like you've known her forever. She has a talent for creating brilliance and capturing it in genuine moments. When we got a sneak peak of these photos, I couldn't help but get emotional. She truly captured who we are in the most beautiful way, but also told a story through her photos. She exceeded every single expectation we had, and I could not recommend her enough.

I HIGHLY recommend you stop your search and book this lady now.

Leandra is such a kind spirit and the pictures were exactly what we were looking for: photos that you can put up in your home to look at the beautiful memories you made together without feeling like you’re displaying stiff couples poses that make you feel awkward. There are funny ones, cute ones and really artistic, creative ones and each is dear to our hearts. We felt safe with Leandra and the pictures translate that. I hope this wasn’t the last time we booked her. Do not look any further and stop worrying about making this decision.

You found your dream photographer.
