Hey There, Im Leslie..
NOSTALGIC, , ROMANTIC
Wedding & Elopement Photographer
I am a wedding and elopement photographer based in Wilmington, NC and Charleston, SC. I truly adore capturing dreamy, timeless, nostalgic photos that will last a lifetime. There’s just something so special about capturing moments in time that people can look back on for generations to come. I want to capture your love story. This is my passion, making sure your love story is like a beaming light glowing through all of your photos and capturing all that love in such a special time in your life. Film inspires me to the fullest sense, and I shoot with both digital and film cameras, and edit my photos to complement each other. I truly believe a wedding day is beautiful on its own and being there to document it, is something I dreamed of doing since I was little girl watching all the romantic movies you can think of. And yes, Pride and Prejudice was one of those movies. I can't help it, what can I say. I am a sucker for romantic love stories and a hopeless romantic. This is what inspires my imagery and what will make me weep on your day with you. Also, YES, I have a huge soft spot for black and white photos. They tell a story and push the viewer to look at the photo in a much deeper sense. I am there for my couples every step of the way, and make the process as simple and stress-free as possible, so they can enjoy this season of life they're in, and soak in every second.

nostalgia meets timeless filmy romanticism
Digital & FILM
Film photography is my first love, and I use both digital + film imagery during any session, wedding, or elopement. Mainly because I can't help myself and its a passion for me. Including Polaroids.
" I will start by saying-if you are thinking about booking Leslie, DO IT!!! From our first phone call, I knew her laid back yet organized attitude was exactly what I needed on our wedding day. We wanted a relaxed and candid approach to our photography and she captured that so perfectly. She has an eye for capturing the little moments that we will treasure forever. She made us feel so comfortable from the get-go, when my husband and I both usually hate having our picture taken. It felt like spending the day with a friend, laughing and chatting and just enjoying the chaos happening around us. I was already obsessed with her photography skills and personality even before we got out pictures back. Now that I can obsess over our full gallery over and over, I can say with complete confidence that she is born to work in this industry. Thank you Leslie "

" Stop here and lock in Leslie for any engagement, elopement, and or wedding photography. A lot of couples choose to do romantic pictures for these occasions but how do you ensure your pictures stand out and are memorable compared to the flood on your daily feed? You work with a photographer that is a people reader and can read a couple almost immediately. Leslie will coordinate the most uncoordinated couple for really romantic romantic shots. My Fiance and I can be silly and awkward and I was worried this would translate into my engagement photos. What was captured was the best angles of me the best angles of him and the best angles of us together. Leslie knows body shapes and best captured angles.. . ."

" After choosing a courthouse wedding in October, we decided to capture the essence of our special day with some engagement/wedding photos a few months later. Leslie's sweet personality and creativity brought out the most incredible pictures we could ever dream of, ones we'll cherish forever!! She's so amazing to work with, and it feels like you've known her forever, even just through correspondence. Leslie knew exactly how to guide us into the perfect poses and made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camera. I highly recommend working with her!! "

" Leslie is an absolute ARTIST! Not only did my fiancé and I have a blast during our shoot, but we are in love with the photos! She made us feel so comfortable and captured our fun, goofy personalities so perfectly. If we were getting married in NC, she’d absolutely be our wedding photographer. Book her, you will not regret it! "
