Meet the photographer · 01

I’m Leslie
a photographer that caputures love
as it unfolds.

For eleven years I’ve worked at the gentlest pace I can. I photograph slowly, with film and digital, with a deep belief that the photographs you’ll keep are the ones that look like memory — not advertisement.

I am based in the Seattle–Tacoma area and travel often. My calendar is intentionally small. If we work together, you’ll have me undivided.

Kind words · 04

From the couples.

If I could give Leslie a 10000/5 stars I would! She is the best photographer I know! She has been taking our photos since 2021. She has captured all of my little families greatest moments (wedding anniversary, maternity photos, 1st birthday, graduation). She is such a nice and sweet person. I have never ever had any issues with anything. For example, I gave her some ideas of what I would like for my daughters birthday photos and sure enough she gave me suggestions and worked her magic. She is such an amazing photographer and would highly recommend her to everyone! Leslie is a very talented woman and has a great eye in photography ♥️♥️

I highly recommend Alyae Photography. Leslie is incredibly professional, patient, and truly knows her craft. She was so kind and considerate throughout the entire shoot, making sure I felt comfortable and at ease. And the photos turned out beautifully! I absolutely loved them. Plus, her prices are very reasonable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and caring photographer.

The Process · 06

How we begin.

  1. I
    Send a note & we talk
    Fill out the inquiry form and share a little about your wedding — the atmosphere, the details you care about, and the feeling you want the day to hold. Within 24–48 hours, I’ll personally reach out so we can schedule a relaxed call and talk through your vision, your priorities, and everything that matters most to you.
  2. II
    Reserve the date & plan together
    Once you are ready, a signed agreement and retainer officially reserve your wedding date. From there we talk about timelines, locations, family dynamics and all the details. So we can have a clear vision of your special day.
  3. III
    The wedding
    When the day arrives, I’ll keep the experience calm and effortless. Stepping in with guidance when needed, documenting as the moments unfold, and making sure you can stay fully immersed in the day.

Asked & answered.

Always — I photograph weddings worldwide. Travel is quoted separately and I'm happy to plan around the right light.

A preview gallery within ten days, and the full gallery within eight weeks. Albums follow once your selections are made.

I do, alongside digital. Most weddings are a blend; the ratio is your choice and we decide it together before the day.

Yes, and I encourage it. A coffee in the Seattle–Tacoma area or a video call — whichever is easiest for you.

Some of my favorite photographs were made in the rain. Truly — we'll be fine.
