Kristen and Marc’s wedding at Triunfo Creek Vineyards in Malibu was one of those days that just flows. It started at a cozy Airbnb in Agoura Hills, where Kristen and her girls got ready surrounded by good light and a lot of laughter. From there we moved out to the vineyard for the ceremony beneath […]

This is our second Pretty Project Workshop, and the theme this year was Pretty in Pink, held at Malibou Lake Lodge. The day was featured on Green Wedding Shoes, which still feels surreal to say out loud. At Lisa Leanne Photography, I love pushing past the standard wedding portfolio brief. This workshop was built around […]

I’m so excited to finally share our first Pretty Project Workshop. We held it at Retreat Malibu in Ventura County, California, and it was the kind of day I’ll be thinking about for a long time. The whole event was picked up by Green Wedding Shoes, which felt like the perfect ending to an already […]

El Matador is one of those places that barely needs a photographer. The rock arches, the hidden coves, the sandstone cliffs catching afternoon light: it all does the heavy lifting before you press a single shutter button. Kristen and Sean knew exactly what they were getting into when they picked El Matador Beach, and the […]

Kristen and Sean’s engagement session at Firestone Vineyard is one I still think about. The property sits among rolling rows of grapevines in the Santa Ynez Valley, and the afternoon light that day was the kind that does most of the work for you. I mostly just followed them around. They were easy together, comfortable, […]

I’m so happy to share one of my favourite newborn sessions, and it made it onto Project Nursery, which still makes me smile. My stylist friend Jenny of Forrest & J invited me to her home to photograph baby Sebastian, who everyone calls Bash. I felt honoured to be in that room in those first […]

Sarah and Aaron won an engagement session I gave away on Instagram, and I couldn’t have picked a better couple for it. They’re both from Santa Barbara, they’re easy together, and they had a clear vision for the day. We started in a garden and finished at the ruins of Knapps Castle as the sun […]

This beachy boho gender reveal started with a simple idea: celebrate a first baby on the coast, with soft colors, good flowers, and everyone the parents love close by. The theme was “Pink or Blue for Little Leu,” and the whole day lived up to it. It was originally shot under my former name, Wisteria […]

Spring in Wildwood Regional Park hits differently. I drove out to Ventura County for Marisa and Jake’s session and the hills were already rolling green, yellow mustard flowers everywhere you looked. If you haven’t been to Wildwood in March or April, put it on your list. It’s one of those parks that genuinely does half […]

I’ve been sitting on these images for a while, and I’m so glad they’re finally out in the world. We shot this boho love story at Triunfo Creek Vineyards, a 55-acre private estate tucked into Malibu Valley between the Santa Monica Mountains and the road to the coast. It was one of my favourite days […]
