They’re aren’t enough words to express all the love I have for capturing my people through all the intimate and legacy leaving pieces of life.

This is why I say I’m a “love” photographer, with no definition of wedding, just elopement or just family etc…ditch the labels, my niche is you if we connect, I just want to capture your unique world unfold.

Having captured Alex & Juan’s engagement shoot almost 2 years ago, to their maternity season, the excitement of being new parents & most recently their official “I do” — or as they cleverly titled one of their delicious cocktails at their intimate wedding last week & I subsequently named their gallery, “When Harry Met Luna” an ode to their son and Alex’s stepdaughter [and my favorite 6 year old].

Through capturing all these intimate chapters of their life we’ve become not only co-collaborators in the wild wedding world but the best of friends, the kind you ask yourself how you ever lived without.

I often tell my clients my hope is that you feel like you're looking through a window into your own nostalgic-meet-elegant romantic film when you see your photos, so it’s touchingly kismet that creating imagery together began with a window shot on the and has finished [for now] with a window shot before walking into their reception at

Cheers to a lifetime of love, thank you for reminding us all that the greatest loves of our lives are never linear, unconventional is sexy & the truest beauty is always a little messy.

I always say I treat my couples like family not only because I genuinely love them, but because I truly believe photographs look and feel different when they come from the heart & lens of someone that takes the time to get to know you and celebrate your unique love story. You’ve made my job too easy. Thank you for letting me into your love and life to capture it all forever.

Love always,
Le

New look. Same kismet feeling.

As I’ve changed, personally and as a creative, my brand has evolved as well so it only felt right to give the biz a little facelift! The past year and a half since we moved to nyc has been nothing short of a wild yet exciting and life giving rollercoaster & through each curve I found myself rediscovering what I want my business & brand to stand for, the lives I want to impact and the meaning behind the passion I’ve always had.

There will be some big changes this coming year but stepping forward with this new look has me so jazzed to share what’s next: more video, new courses, less shooting, incorporating reiki & as always, only soulmate clients.

I love my people fiercely and I’m excited to continue offering artful, romantic & nostalgic legacies for lovers forever. On the coaching side of things, I’m thrilled to be opening more 1:1 Voxer coaching opportunities for photographers and sharing new additions to my signature course.

Getting to share these updates with you, the new look behind Leandra Creative Co — feels truly so special. Thank you for being here, this community is totally salt of the earth.

Huge shoutout to my designer: I’m truly in awe of my girl who deserves all the cred for the iconic new design. Thank you for your magic ⭐️

When you tell your couple you gotta RUN back to cocktail hour as your wrapping up creative portraits or else all your friends & fam are gonna drink the special cocktails and they SPRINT. Turned out to be some of my favorite motion shots ever 🏃‍♀️ 🍸

Thank you for letting me into your love and life and treating me like one of your own from the moment we first talked — I’m so thrilled for this team & delighted to see them showered with so much love before they leave their Brooklyn chapter to embark on their married life in Colorado, cheers to all the adventures to come you gorgeous creative souls 💌

L & O lovin all over Grand Central 💌

I used to be so scared of change, now I kinda love it.

Moving from NC to NYC I was so terrified that I’d feel like a fraud here, that I’d have no idea how to capture love here in the midst of the chaos. Un shockingly (not a word but should be), life gives you what you’re ready for & I dove head first when we got here and now creating in this chaotic, magnetic and inspiring city has been the most beautiful gift I’ve ever gotten. I feel so at peace walking into a shoot or wedding and wholeheartedly trusting myself to create something new and meaningful with my people. I didn’t always have that, and I’m just really thankful to ALL of my clients who trusted me because that trust helped me arrive here.

I & D at being icons

Lately with shooting so much I’ve been trying to stretch my creativity a little more and attempting to frame each moment as a piece of art on its own, soaked in love & ready to be hung on your walls or placed in an album when delivered.

Feeling so grateful to help my couples crate these fun & beautiful legacies.

Paul & Sareen wearing in Central Park

I always try my best to get at least 3 different kinds of shots from each moment as they unfold, whether that’s a blurred (I call them painting photos), a close up black & white, a flash shot — depending on the lighting, or another style or angle!

Which one is your fave from this intimate moment in Central Park?👇🏻

Thank you for trusting me to be your forever Photographer, just love you can’t wait to share more from your blissful day🤎

Usually I am super intentional about sharing images only in chronological order of how it happened while shooting when I post, but for this one I felt like mixing it up and started with some of the last moments we shot.

Love stories aren’t a straight line. They don’t always go “in order” and that’s one of the most beautiful things about love, it doesn’t follow any rules.

Thank you Marissa & Dan for trusting me to capture your New York City love story — you two amazing souls that deserve all the love and more, cheers to forever friends! 😍

Please excuse me while I fall in love with shadows & shooting in harsh sun all over again — & let’s have a moment for how she rocked this blazer elopement dress 🔥

These two said “I do” at the courthouse a few weeks ago when it poured all day, so of course they needed a photo do over.

Daniella is an artist so we absolutely had to hit all their favorite museums during their post elopement photoshoot anddddd a few other corners that make everyone fall in love with NYC all over again (and each other a little deeper).

Their romantic Mexico wedding this fall will be nothing short of jaw droppingly iconic.

This is a reminder to couples(and vendors to support your clients), a phenomenal wedding experience doesn’t need to fit into someone else’s box. Permission granted to give the middle finger to anyone that makes you feel like your wedding needs to look a certain way, because the only thing that matters is that you get to go home to the love of your life every day. So, having a wedding experience that feels truly exciting and supportive for you two IS the true essence of a good wedding.

Be like Michele & Ethan and bring your pup to your photoshoot 🐶 ok it’s super fun but also selfishly I just love your dogs.

When these two reached out they said they wanted their engagement photoshoot to be “a love letter to NYC” and I couldn’t have been more on board 🥺

They moved from SF to NYC years ago and fell in love with this city together (and with Queen frenchie Ella of course)

So naturally we spent their engagement session capturing their love in all of their most loved spots in their favorite neighborhood.

Their love letter to NYC holds all the chaos & the beauty of NYC: these photographs wrote about the free shots at local bars, escaping the rats in their first apartment, the late night pizza, live music in the park, spontaneous record shop finds, their local dog cafe and everything in between. The challenging and the exciting — the romance and the grit.

If you’re a New Yorker, you know the dichotomy of this city and I think we managed to tell a little piece of their love letter to NYC through these photos.

Thank you for letting me into your love and life to capture this chapter. Cheers to forever you gems!
