who want a mix of strategy, direction and fun…

I’m Leslie. The go-to photographer for creative women

HERE’S THE DEAL

and to be seen, remembered, and booked.

powered by coffee + golden light

I’m a born-and-raised California girl who’s found roots in Hawaii and the Pacific Northwest before landing on Australia’s Surf Coast (Wadawurrung Country), which I now proudly call home. My heart belongs to the mountains and wild coastlines, and I’m endlessly grateful to live where nature and creativity collide.

I’m a self-taught photographer who thrives on creative collaboration. My style is deeply influenced by natural light, mother Earth, and a passion for telling women’s stories and showcasing their unique gifts.

I believe every woman has brilliance worth celebrating, and my purpose is to help them see it, own it, and share it with the world.

Lets chat about your photos

A FEW OF

my favourite things

Being a Mama.

I’m a mama to an energetic, cheeky, ocean loving son. Motherhood has expanded my heart and patience more than anything else, and I feel incredibly lucky that he chose me to be his mama.

Planes & passport stamps

I will happily spend a good portion of my income on airline tickets and travel experiences. Some favourites: hiking the W trail in Patagonia, wandering the streets of Rome at midnight, and flying into the Siberian Valley in New Zealand and jet boating out.

Dawn patrol.

I’m an early riser by nature, which comes in handy because I LOVE a dawn patrol.

Catching waves as the sun rises over the water is pure bliss and a form of meditation. It’s the perfect way to start the day.

Great coffee & pastries

I barely drank coffee before I met my “third wave” loving huband. His addiction quickly became my own and now I’m a full on coffee snob. Luckily I live incredibly close to Melbourne!

What it’s like working with me

What can I say other than WOW! Leslie captured me perfectly, made me feel super comfortable in front of the camera and just brought the vibes to the day. It was collaborative, she got my vision and executed it like a pro. If you need a brand shoot, Leslie is the woman you want in your corner.

I decided to engage Leslie for updated brand photos because I loved her ethos around creating natural images that focused on capturing personality, rather than the usual ho-hum corporate photos. She researched some great locations, and the final spot we settled on was absolutely perfect - especially the random red wall down a side street! The whole experience felt like hanging out with a friend, which is how photoshoots should feel. Thanks Leslie for the great photos, and delivering on the vision 💜

If you are thinking about working with Leslie, DO IT!!!!! I loved every minute of the experience. Leslie was so helpful pre-booking, during and after. And of course my photos turned out INCREDIBLE!!!! She had a variety of packages which were super clear and tailored. She made me so comfortable and excited through the process ahead of time and the actual photoshoot day was SO FUN. 10/10 highly recommend. Super excited to use all my photos and b-roll to build my new website and relaunch my social media! Thanks again!
