About

Photography is a huge part of your day because these are the memories you will cherish for years to come.

If you're just looking for a photographer to show up and take photos from a shots list, I'm not the right photographer for you. If you're submitting a bunch of inquiries on the search for the cheapest photographer available on your date, that's not me.

If you're looking for someone who will feel like a friend, make your day more fun, capture your relationship in an authentic way, and follow your love story for years to come, I'm your girl.

I'll make you laugh, make you dance, and make you feel even closer to your partner than you were before. Those candid moments are what I live for; I will capture the intimacy of your wedding day and help you forget that all eyes are on you. Your wedding day is a beautiful experience that will only happen once, and so I take a step back and document your day instead of directing it. This way I am able to capture your day as it happens, and so your lifelong memories are of real moments, not just stiff, posed images.

I would love to hear more about your love story, proposal, and wedding plans!

Dream photos come true

I knew Leigh Anne's artistic style would be a great match for us when we hired her, but she and her second photographer Viviana captured our wedding even better than I could have ever imagined. Not only did the photos come out like works of art that belong in a museum, but also their level of organization and direction made being photographed easy and stress-free. We had so much fun with them on our big day and will always be grateful!

Leigh Anne is the absolute best

I cannot say enough about Leigh Anne. She is the most talented photographer, but most importantly, an incredible person. She made sure that I was feeling okay during my wedding, we were meeting the time schedule, we got all of our pictures we wanted, and made all of our wedding party feel comfortable getting their pictures taken. We received previews a few days ago and are obsessed. My wedding was almost completely inside, and she managed to capture the most amazing photos with fantastic lighting. They're moody, edgy, sexy, memorable and everything else I ever wanted them to be.

Leigh Anne is the BEST

Where do I even begin? Leigh Anne was PERFECTION! I’ve followed her on Instagram for years and I’ve always known that I wanted her to be my wedding photographer. Once we had our venue and date locked down, I reached out to Leigh Anne with the expectation that she was probably already booked. Low and behold, she was available that day AND available to travel to New Hampshire for our mountaintop ceremony! I was ELATED to say the least. We set up a time to talk about the engagement shoot and she could not have been kinder and more professional. She took the time to get to know me and Matt and our story and what we were looking for. She kept diligent notes during every meeting and was extremely organized. We exchanged calls and texts leading up to the big day to talk details and swap ideas. She was always available and ready to assist with whatever question I had. On the day of, disaster struck, and rain and thunderstorms deluged the area. Leigh Anne remained calm and cool and was my rock that day. Thankfully, the sun came out around 4 PM and we were able to have the outdoor mountaintop ceremony of our dreams. The pictures that I’ve gotten back from my previews are IMMACULATE. I will cherish the time I spent with Leigh Anne over the past year, and I can’t wait to come back as a repeat client! Photographers are such a key player during a wedding, not only for the photos, but just for directing the flow and timeline for the entire day. You will walk away after meeting her wanting to be BFFs because she’s just that kind and cool! 1000 out of 1000 recommend Leigh Anne, it will be the best decision you’ve ever made!
