hi, i'm leah!

 

your phoenix family photographer

lover of sunshine, coffee shops, days at the beach, quality conversations, nourishing food, natural fibers, and appreciating the little things in life (so, basically i'm your beachy hippie mom friend).


i believe motherhood is holy work and it deserves to be remembered as such. i'm here to illuminate the beauty of your ordinary, creating candid + joyful imagery for every season of motherhood.

what it's like to shoot with me


i take a documentary-inspired approach to photography, meaning i guide when needed, but leave room for genuine connection to unfold. usually this happens in a place you love doing the things you love. this allows your session to feel relaxed and true to who you are, not like a performance for the camera.


we'll take our time, give your kids space for movement and play, and really just go with your family's flow. if you're down for a stress-free hour of laughter and fun while making core memories with your family that you'll cherish forever – we should work together!!
