Wedding, Family, Lifestyle, and Branding Photography in Indiana.
You deserve photos that reflect this season of life - the unconditional love you have for your soul mate, the new life that’s graced your body, the smiles of you and your partner on tiny little bodies made for adventure, you hard at work building the business of your dreams.

Capturing you exactly as you are
I’m a total pro at finding the things that make you incredible and bringing them to life. From the way your hair blows in the midwestern winds to the way your eyes light up when you smile.
I love creating fun sessions that feel natural and are most-importantly stress-free so they result in candid, lifestyle images that instantly take you back to that joyous moment. You just want photos that reflect your natural self (ya know, the person you are when you don’t have a camera in front of your face), and I’m here to give you that.
When I’m not photographing amazing people all over Indianapolis and South Bend… I’m a wife and mama to two boys (plenty of experience wrangling two wild kids for family pictures), and I’m always in seek of a life well-savored. From snackin’ on juicy tacos and sipping iced coffee to sitting beachside with a good book in my hands.
I'm Leah!
hey,
It’s nice to meet you!

She met with us a couple of times to take notes of what we wanted to capture and made us feel really special. Day of the wedding she was organized, stayed on schedule and my husband and I got to have a fun sunset photoshoot with her at the end of the night. Her aesthetic is exactly what I wanted and I'm obsessed with all of our photos!

Leah is a fantastic photographer and highly recommend her. She has taken our family, newborn and maternity photos and all have turned out amazing. Leah is also wonderful to work with and so kind. There have been times that our kids haven't been cooperative during a photo session and she is somehow able to still take beautiful photos. I am so happy someone recommended Leah to me. I also love that we get all the digital images. Thanks!

Leah captured the most beautiful photos of my family. She was easy to work with and made all of us feel comfortable. Her photos were delivered quickly after our session. Leah is a joy to work with. She is the person we reach out to for all our photography needs.

Leah is outstanding! She photographed our wedding and did a complimentary engagement session with us! She took the time to really get to know us and hear our story and then helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Our photos are incredible. She captured every moment of the day and I love being able to look back on them. She also got our wedding photos back to us really quickly, just a couple of weeks after our wedding! We were blown away by the quality of Leah’s photos but also with how fun she was to work with. She went above and beyond what I expected and I am so grateful for her!

I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Leah! Leah met/talked/planned with me several times before our wedding which made us feel prepared and at ease. She delivered our photos to us in a very timely manner and we adore them. Not only do I love the style and artistic feel of Leah’s photography, but the way Leah operates her business is efficient and organized. She showed up to our rainy wedding day with umbrellas for all of the bridesmaids to use in pictures and had a “Rainy Day Plan” for all of the photo settings. As two awkward photo-subjects, she made us feel super comfortable and had poses for us to make things look natural and fun. We love Leah!!
