Hi! I'm Leanna.

My artistic journey began with photographing women, and it has remained my guiding purpose since. As a queer woman, I grew up seeing little representation in the media around me, and that absence is what drives me to create the work I am known for today: images where women and the LGBTQ+ community feel powerful, affirmed, and deeply seen through the lens of someone who understands them. I build teams who share this vision, so the energy behind the camera supports the stories we tell in front of it.

My creative process is informed by my previous experiences working across the Midwest, East and West coasts in studio operations, model management, producing, and lighting, giving me a deeper insight into each role that contributes to making the greatest images. My background in multiple areas of production has shaped a unique skill set and perspective, allowing me to offer a thoughtful, efficient, and collaborative experience that better supports my clients at every stage.

My portfolio embodies my love for color theory, texture, and intricately refined lighting, containing work for publications and brands across the globe including Nike, L'Officiel, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Grazia, Glamour, various independent designers and musicians, and celebrities such as Tove Lo.​​​
