I recently met Leanna for a boudoir shoot. I chose to do it for several reasons but wasn’t sure what to expect going into it. I was both nervous and excited. Leanna and Lorri made me feel welcome and took the time to get to know me and understand my reasons for choosing boudoir. The experience was more than I expected and seeing even the unedited photos I was complete blown away! The woman in the pictures was me but better! It allowed me to see myself in a different light and it was quite liberating. The photos were complete art; the lighting, the angles, and the poses Leanna chose were perfect. I could not have asked for a better photographer or experience. I have already started telling my friends about my amazing experience and eagerly await the day I can hand the album to my husband. I’m positive it will leave him speechless, amongst other things! Thank you Leanna!

Highly recommend! I hired Leanna due to her expertise with lighting. A portion of my wedding was outside during sunset. I needed someone who could capture color. She did a brilliant job! I am VERY pleased with my wedding photos. I would hire her again without hesitation!
