Testimonials

“Lelah was an absolute lifesaver for our elopement! We originally planned a courthouse wedding, but with less than two weeks notice, I decided to elope in Sedona, and she came through like a pro. She helped me plan everything, even going beforehand to scope out the location and create the most beautiful bouquet. She also gave clear directions throughout the day to ensure I would be completely satisfied with my pictures, which I really appreciated. Her calming presence made all the difference for me. Her attention to detail was incredible- she captured every single moment and made the day feel so special. Her heartfelt speech added such a personal touch. I can’t thank her enough for making our day unforgettable!”

-Erika + Mark

“Lelah has been nothing short of amazing in every photoshoot we have done. I first met her when she gifted my son and I a mommy and me shoot and they still to this day are favorites of mine.

I reconnected with her to do my wedding and was blessed to be her first wedding. She did such an incredible job that now she does every one of our shoots. I love recommending all of my family and friends to her because I know they will love her and her work as much as I do. If you want a photographer that makes you laugh and have fun during your shoot, I highly recommend her. She makes me feel so comfortable and confident!!”

-Becca + Jordan

“I have had the honor and privilege of working with Lelah for over five years, and every single one of her shoots had blown me out of the water. Lelah has done countless shoots for me ranging from couples and friendship shoots to my elopement and small ceremony. Still to this day the pictures that Lelah took for my husband and my elopement amaze me- speechless is an understatement. Lelah drove with us three hours to capture the perfect picture, in the perfect location. Not only did she help carry all our things, through a wooded forest, but she also made sure that I was comfortable and happy every minute of the day. Lelah’s eye for detail and the right shot is immaculate. However, she also made this day incredibly special for my husband and I. We chose to elope and have a small ceremony later. We will forever cherish all of the shoots she has done for us, you will not regret booking her!”
