Our sessions have included newborn sessions in our home (one with twins!), maternity photos in her studio space with a dress borrowed from her client closet, and family portraits outside on a cold and rainy day with a 1 year old. Every session has perfectly captured the wonderful chaos of our family. In addition to the amazing photos, Leahana has great suggestions for locations, provides a packet of information prior to the day with tips for wardrobe, and is SOO good with kids! Honestly can't recommend Leahana enough!

Having Leahana as our photographer was an amazing experience, and I'm so glad that we had her capture this moment. From the start, she was very kind and communicated well as we planned the day. She provided many different locations to choose from and considerations for each of those locations. She also had a comprehensive guide for preparing for the day of the shoot. All of this was extremely helpful given that we were unfamiliar with the area and did not have experience doing a photography session before. On the day of, Leahana made us feel comfortable throughout, and the 3 hours flew by. Very chill vibes and super fun! The pictures surpassed our high expectations :) I would 100% recommend her, and we will definitely work with her again!

Professional, amazing work | Excellent photographer…read more My husband and I do wedding videography on the side, so take our word for it when we say we highly recommend Dawn Goei. I was looking for a local photographer who could do our maternity/holiday and newborn photos. Not only does Dawn have stellar reviews on Yelp, but she's been awarded for her work as well. Her work caught my eye. I love her style and how she's able to capture special moments during a shoot, and not just the staged look. (There's actually a couple photos that make me cry every time I look at it because she perfectly captured our love for each other and growing family!) My husband and I are usually nervous and uncomfortable in front of the camera, but we immediately connected with Dawn and were pretty comfortable with her throughout the session. The session lasted about 30 - 40 minutes at her studio. Originally, we planned to have our maternity holiday photos taken at Lee Farms's Christmas Tree field, but that day was really windy and rainy. Her studio is great. Lots of different backgrounds to choose from, lots of textures. She has a good number of props too! (Allow for a little extra time to find the place because it's in this business area with other businesses around, which made it a little tricky to find - at least at night.) Dawn has a great personality. What I really appreciated most about the photo session was her direction. She would tell us to tilt our heads, look in a certain direction, fix our clothing and hair, etc. The lighting was very soft with that awesomely big light diffuser. If you're looking to book with Dawn, do it. Contact her immediately because she's super busy. She said it takes her about 3 weeks to edit, but we were able to see our session at about 2 weeks (thank you!). The whole process is pretty smooth: contact/book a contract and put down a deposit, pay balance at time of shoot, private link and password via email to view session, make purchases online, separate email sent immediately with digital photos (if you choose this medium). If you decide to order prints, it may take a couple of weeks. We went with the digital full resolution version. We loved all of the photos she presented us, which made it awfully hard to choose the 10 we wanted to keep, so we ended up buying some additional photos. Her work is quality. I can't recommend her enough. Support local.

Then she reached out to us to reschedule it TWICE because the weather was looking gray and she wanted us to have clear sunny skies for our photoshoot. Seriously, who is that caring?? She even lent me a dress to wear, brought us water bottles, and provided props for our baby. We are in love with our sunset family pictures! We also took our baby's sitting up milestone session in her home studio. Again, she provided beautiful clothes, accessories, and props for our photoshoot. I thought I was going to have to stand behind the camera to get my baby to smile but Lelia took charge! She has so many tricks to get your baby to look up and smile. My baby even belly laughed! We were so comfortable in her studio and it really shines through in our pictures. We received prints in the mail and were shocked at how beautifully everything was wrapped and packaged. Lelia has such a great artistic eye and attention to detail. Cadeau photography is 100% worth your investment!
