Stephanie was a great photographer for our big day. When she found out we didn't have a wedding…read moreplanner during our initial consult meeting, she also gave us some great tips/hints, which led us to feeling a little less overwhelmed with it all. During that first meeting, Stephanie made sure to walk through the general look and feel of what she'd be doing during our wedding. We went over a pretty comprehensive list of family/group shots that we wanted, and she assured us that the day was going to be special. When she showed up for the day of the wedding, she was prepared and professional and definitely knew how to handle two anxious grooms who were running around making sure everything was good for the festivities. My partner and I just let Stephanie take the reins for how our photos were done, and I'm sure she would have preferred a *little* guidance, we're so glad we did, because her ideas were better than anything we could have come up with. Also, having that list of group shots was so important, because it made taking pictures with all of our family and friends fly by. As for the ceremony and reception, Stephanie was adept at blending in/not being noticed while capturing all the memories we could hope for. The pictures have been fantastic, and I don't know if there's a better person who can take two awkward guys, put them in what seem like awkward poses, and make beautiful pictures. Thank you so much Stephanie!

Ricardo did a fabulous job shooting our wedding, rolled with the punches (weather! low lighting!…read morerebellious toddlers!) and got a good number of images back to me within half as many days as we'd agreed to. Before the wedding we met once to go over logistics and agree on a shot list. The meeting was pleasant and I left feeling confident that he understood what we wanted - mostly candids of our guests enjoying themselves during the reception and a quick family photo session in the park immediately following our ceremony. On the day of my wedding, about two hours before we were supposed to meet at Brooklyn Bridge Park we had to call off the park ceremony due to rain. We also pushed everything back an hour. Ricardo was very understanding and when I showed up at The Green Building (our reception venue) he was already there with his assistent, had shot all my precious little DIY details before the guests had a chance to settle in, and expertly captured our ceremony in a much different setting than we'd discussed. During the party I didn't even know he was there, which to me is a good thing. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of our shots and would 100% recommend Ricardo and Leon Images to a friend. In fact, I already have.

I truly cannot say enough good things about Sasha. She is so unbelievably talented and makes it…read morelook so effortless. She brings such an amazing energy to every shoot and makes you feel right at home. Sasha has seen our family through so many stages of life. From wedding days to first family photos to post-baby boudoir. Her incredible talent speaks for itself, but her welcoming nature and badass boss lady energy is the icing on the cake. We truly love working with Sasha and getting to have her talent as a part of our family history. Feeling awkward in front of the camera? Don't worry, Sasha will make you feel like a natural-born model. Worried about logistics on your wedding day? Don't worry, Sasha has it down to a science. Feeling tired and worn out from being a new parent? Don't worry, Sasha will bring the light back to your eyes. Trust me, you won't regret working with Sasha. She is truly amazing.

My fiancé Jenn and I could not have imagined a better experience than working with Sasha. I was…read moreplanning a surprise proposal in Seattle, which as an CA native, I had very little experience of. After a phone call and a few text exchanges, Sasha helped me plan my proposal and also provided wonderful suggestions for the rest of our stay. Fast forward 2 months and the weather reports changed, I had to change the date a few days early, had to change the location; everything seemed to be deviating from the original schedule. Throughout all of the madness, Sasha stayed very active in offering solutions and doing everything she could to still make this the day of our dreams. Fortunately, with her help, we had a winter wonderland proposal, amazing photos to remember the moment, and great memories that were only heightened by the kind soul that Sasha is. Any other major or minor life moment I have that requires photos, Sasha will be the first on my list!

The entire process and the touch ups took less than two weeks. Signing up and getting her to come in to the office was a breeze. Very affordable and I will be using her again this year. My entire team loved working with Nicole and had a blast too. Taking headshots can feel lIke you're in line to take elementary school pictures, but Nicole went above and beyond to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. Haha, some of the even more high maintenance of individuals I work with.... haha... were so thrilled they even used the pictures for their dating profiles. I think she also does headshots for that too lol! Thanks Nicole you're the best!

I was referred to Nicole by a colleague because I was in need of a head shot. I contacted her on…read morethe phone and she was very friendly. We decided to meet a couple days later at the Olympic Sculpture Park (weather permitting). If the weather was not so great we were going to meet at her studio in West Seattle. The weather turned out to be great so we met at the Sculpture Park. She made the session very fun and relaxing. It was easy to smile for her. I generally do not like to have my picture taken at all, or rather, do not enjoy looking at pictures of myself. That is why I was so pleasantly surprised when she sent me the link of the photos from the session, which she sent the same day as the session. She had taken lots of great pictures! I got to pick which ones to keep and she retouched them and sent the final link to me (as well as the invoice) via e mail. I will definitely be using her again for any future photography needs I may have, and would highly recommend her to others. The whole process was so easy from scheduling the session to receiving the link for the photos and paying. The price is very reasonable as well!

On a recent trip to Seattle, my wife and I were able to meet up with Keoni again and had him show us the best parts of the city. So cool that he was there to capture those places and eventful moments for us on camera. Wouldn't it be awesome to always travel with your own personal photographer! While in Seattle we were introduced to John at happy hour, great personality and I would imagine easy to work with as well. I wouldn't hesitate to have these guys shoot our next big event.

We took photos in her studio as well as in another beautiful nearby office space, and my session also included something I never would have thought about but really appreciated - professional hair or makeup. I chose makeup, and was amazed at how talented the makeup artist, Jane, was. For someone who has never had professional makeup done before, and wears very little, I was so impressed by how gorgeous it turned out in the pictures. To top it off, Allyne is incredibly warm, professional, and accommodating, making the whole experience really smooth and enjoyable - especially for someone like me who hates to have her photo taken. I would highly recommend her and can't wait to get these photos up on my website!
