"We got a chance to briefly look through the wedding pictures last night and they are BEAUTIFUL. The beauty shots omg... spectacular!!! I've always wanted to have pictures like that so thank you. It's been such a pleasure having you photograph our wedding and those amazing engagement pictures as well. I really want to give a big thank you to you and your team for all your hard work. I would say one of my favorite moments in the wedding planning process was working with you and seeing the amazing pictures you produce. So thank you again."
- Andy & Yvonna
"Loved loved loved Leanne! Since our wedding was at night, taking pictures could have a bit of a struggle. However, Leanne knows her stuff! I'm pretty traditional so my husband and I didn't plan a 'first look'. Leanne suggested that it may be a good idea and thank goodness we listened to her because we wouldn't have had time to do any bride and groom pictures after the ceremony... (our ceremony was pushed back because some family members were late). Anyways Leanne did a wonderful job and she is worth every penny :) She captured what a wedding is all about...the love between a man and a woman. Note to all future brides: The day is about you and your future hubby nothing else matters. Leanne reminded us of this." - Helena & Matt
"Leanne and Kyoko are just sooo incredibly friendly. They made my fiancé (guess I should call him husband now...lol) feel so comfortable during the engagement shots that it went from total awkwardness to a blast! Leanne is so understanding and sincere that she makes every moment with her a genuine experience. She was really accommodating with my requests and I truly felt satisfied with my decision to have used her services. Her assistant was like my on-site makeup/hair/attire second check. We also had Kyoko second shooting the day of the wedding and she was so very focused and detailed as well. A truly great team. Thank you to all of you. I can't wait to see the photos."
(and after receiving their wedding photos...)
"Alright then... We got our photos. I have to say it was not what I thought it would be. It was BEYOOOOOOOOOOND what we had imagined. Leanne's work is definitely amazing on her site and blog, no questions asked. But it's certainty something else when you see that quality of work capturing your very own most special day. The angles, the look, the emotions that she manages to capture is so unbelievable. Her and Kyoko have such a great eye for those very unique moments, I can't even fathom how they manage to take the photos they do being so discrete and not "in your face". Thank you again to the both of you from the both of us." - Mina & Ahmad
"Leanne, even a year and half after our wedding I always get emails like this about our wedding pictures:
{Hi Andrew, I have to tell you, that your wedding pictures are BY FAR, the best I have ever seen. Never mind the fact that the bride and groom are absolutely gorgeous:), but the clarity and precision of "what" the photographer wants us to see is truly amazing. For example, the picture of the man cutting the coconut. You and I know how fast that camera has to be, to capture the actual cut of the coconut with a machete, and THEN, the photographer, blurs the background......Brilliant!! Anyway, just wanted to let you and your wife know that they are some of the best pictures I have ever seen. Take Care, Kathy}
Our guests can't stop picking up the wedding book you made for us, it just catches your eye! Trust me Leanne, you are unreal! Anyway, just wanted you to show you that email." - Andrew & Vanessa
"I hope you are well. It is hard to believe we are coming up to our fourth wedding anniversary... time flies. We still adore your pictures and I'm happy to see from your website that you are sharing your wonderful talents with many other happy couples. I've referred a few people to you.... our friends have loved looking at our photos and asked for your contact info. Anyways, I just wanted to say hi and to let you know how happy we still are with our pictures. Everyone we show them to loves them and friends wish they had our quality and style of pictures!"
- Catherine & David
"These photos are beyond our expectations - capturing the essence of the day. Each photo sparks a memory of our wedding day - the fun, the laughter, the joy, the happiness, the tears and of course, the love. Simply put, we could not have imagined more beautiful photos - we truly love them!"
(one year later...)
"Kenny and I recently celebrated our one year anniversary and I wanted to thank you once again for the fabulous photos of our wedding day. I absolutely love them! I have been showing off these photos ever since we received them and everyone agrees that there is just something about these photos that make them so memorable. I can't really put it into words but I am so happy! Your photos have a way of capturing all the moments of the day. I know you must be crazy busy with the wedding season so I'll keep this short. Thank you so much! Both you and your photos are fabulous!"
- Karen & Kenny
"The pictures you took of the wedding are truly amazing. When i first looked through them i had just pulled an all-nighter at work and wasn't able to truly absorb what art work you created out of our wedding day! I just had a chance to go over them with Mike and we absolutely love them! We are blown away actually. You have such a gift for creating a dialogue with people so they're very natural around you. Your hard work and creative eye have made a huge difference to our whole wedding experience." - Nazgol & Mike
"I just wanted to thank you for doing such a beautiful job with Carlyn and Graham's wedding pictures. They are absolutely fantastic! Everyone who sees them comments on how great they are and I have had several people ask me for your business card. You just really seemed to get the personality of Carlyn and Graham and the pictures reflect that so nicely. Those pictures of the little girls sitting on the floor look like something out of a book. They are just awesome! When we were looking for a photographer we really wanted someone whose pictures would capture the essence of the couple as well as the feeling of the day and the pictures in your portfolios seemed to show that. It was very stress free once we booked you knowing that your pictures were going to capture what we wanted. You went way beyond what I expected with your stunning photos. I can't thank you enough for helping to make the day so memorable." - Sue (mother of the bride)
"I've been meaning to write you an email for a few weeks now to thank you again so much for such a wonderful team on our wedding day. We couldn't have had better photographers and I truly thought they did such a great job and made it fun for us too!"
- Chanelle & Ben
“Dearest Leanne, There are not enough words to describe how appreciative we are for all of the incredible natural photos you and your team have captured on our most magical day ever! I knew a few years back after having viewed a family friend’s wedding pictures, that I wanted YOU to be my professional photographer at my own wedding and I’m truly glad we chose you. We warmed up to you the moment we met you, instantly felt so comfortable with you and your team that we didn’t feel as though we were having our professional shots taken and it’s evident in the pictures just how much fun Wagner and I were having on our wedding day! We really look forward to sharing all of our pictures with our family and friends and we are sooo looking forward to seeing our wedding video your team captured too! Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for capturing every moment of one of the most special occasions of our lives!!" - Nazgol & Wagner

"I would like to thank you for the fabulous job that you have done on our wedding and engagement photos. You are a very talented photographer, capturing all of the great moments of our wedding in a fun and artistic manner.

I will definitely recommend you to anyone in need of a wedding photographer and we will definitely hire you again and again for all future family photos. Thank you again. We are so very grateful for all the memories you have caught for us." - Trisha & Norbert
"Kevin and I still remember when we met you and knew right away that you were the photographer for us! You are reliable, talented and simply a joy to work with. We both felt very comfortable having you around, especially since we knew you would do a great job! Thank you for traveling with us to California and making our day so fun, special and memorable. Your pictures are tasteful, timeless and amazing and we still love looking at them over and over again. We will definitely think of you when we need pictures taken for future occasions and we can ensure you that your name will be passed around to our friends and family. Thank you Leanne!"

"First of all, thank you so much for making our wedding day so special with your service. It was so great working with you and Kyoko. We didn't feel we were rushed and it was comfortable and definitely a lot of fun!!! I was a bit worried that I might get shy in front of camera but you were absolutely amazing! My family really appreciated at the fact that you and your team made the wedding photo shoot go very smoothly."
- Fiona & Daryl
"Thank you so much again for being our wedding photographer. When I saw the photos last night I was speechless. The moments that you captured of our wedding made us feel like we were there again – reliving our wedding day. You are truly masterful at what you do, truly a talented photographer. The gentle direction you gave us really made a huge difference. I’ve been in other wedding photo sessions…I know. You seem to know which moments to cajole us into being playful, or giving you a beauty shot. We’re so glad to have met you, and we look forward to having you record other important moments of our life to come." - Cheryl & Hoon
"Kyoko, We want to thank you for the great work you've done. The photos are awesome! Looking at them reminds us of a lot of happy moments from that day. It's not only the photos of Matt and I that we love... the images of my mom and the kids, grandpa and cousins, couples... they’re all amazing. The album was cause for a big family gathering... we flipped through it again and again, spending hours chatting on every memorable moment you captured. You know what... I went to another wedding the other day, and I now i can completely tell the difference between a skillful photographer and a skillful photographer with heart. You definitely have a big heart!" - Fanny & Matt
