Photos don't have to be stressful.

I promise I'm more awkward than you

So... what are we photographing?

I also photograph weddings, events, milestone celebrations, and other custom sessions. If you have something in mind, I'd love to hear about it.

Most of my clients start by telling me one of these things:


"My kids probably won't cooperate."


"We will get lucky if we get one smile out of my senior."


"I have no idea how to pose."


Perfect.

You don't need perfectly behaved kids, years of modeling experience, or a Pinterest-perfect vision for your session.

I'll help with outfits, locations, posing, and everything in between. My goal is simple: create beautiful images while making the experience fun and stress-free.

Even the grumpiest dads and camera-shy seniors usually end up laughing before we're done.

 

What clients are saying:

Leah did an amazing job capturing our family photos. She has several shoot locations to choose from and even helped with outfit selection. Our children were crazy, playing in dirt and running amok, but she captured the most beautiful candid photos of us all. Leah will be our forever photographer. 💜 Thank you so so much!

Romantic couple sharing an intimate moment by a brick window ledge in a cozy indoor setting.

Leah took our engagement photos! She was so helpful with poses and found the best backdrops. She was so subtle - I had no idea she was there at first!

She was so friendly and easy to work with and was so quick at getting our pictures back to us.

The pictures are beautiful! We feel so lucky she was able to capture our special moment so perfectly!

We chose to work with Leah at Texas Innerbloom for a last minute mini maternity session and newborn lifestyle shoot. We’ve only done our maternity session so far, but Leah has been truly amazing to work with. Between her professionalism, willingness to work with our budget and true talent for taking amazing photos we could not be happier. It was not easy being 33 weeks pregnant and trying to wrangle my 2 year old for photos, but the pictures Leah captured of our family are truly a work of art. We cannot wait to work with her again when our baby girl arrives for our next photo session!

Meet Leah

I'm a Central Texas photographer, mom of two, dog lover, and professional wrangler of camera-shy dads, energetic toddlers, and seniors who swear they don't want their picture taken.


Most people show up convinced they're awkward in front of the camera.


They're usually wrong.


Whether we're chasing toddlers through a field, celebrating a graduating senior, or documenting the anticipation of a new baby, my goal is simple: create beautiful images while making the experience feel easy and fun.


When I'm not behind the camera, you'll usually find me with my family, hanging out with my Aussiedoodle Rocky, or finding excuses to visit places with elephants.
