No two love stories are the same. Give yours the unique treatment it deserves.
Wedding Photography & Videos — Heartfelt documentation to create a tangible legacy of love.
In DC, Maryland & Virgina
A wedding is so much more than the sum of its parts. As your trusted wedding photographer, I’ll document all the details you poured your heart into — the cake, the flowers, the beautiful dress, and more. But I look for so much more than that.
I treat your wedding like the most beautiful love story ever told, and I don’t leave out a single image as I help you tell it. Through heirloom-style photos that convey every detail, I transform your love story into a family heirloom that you’ll lovingly pass on from one generation to the next.
A picture is worth a thousand words. But your love story could fill a book. (And trust me, it will.)
A couple’s unique love story is the beating heart of every wedding. When two people come together, they are filled with their own hopes, dreams, and beautiful visions for the future. I make it my mission to pick up on every glance that passes between them. I seek every raw reaction from the wedding guests, and I gleefully train my lens on all the moments of levity and light.
For the couple preparing to say they’ll love one another forever, for the couple who dreams of their future home, the kids they’ll have, the adventures they’ll share, I will be your documentarian.
I’ll help you see the whole picture of your wedding day
and show it to others, for generations to come.
I love my wedding clients! Here’s what they have to say:

“From the moment we met with Lesly for our engagement shoot, she made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable! Seriously, there is no greater hype woman than Lesly! She will make you feel like a million bucks. We knew immediately after that shoot that we wanted her for our wedding. She is not only good at focusing on the couple, she is really great at directing a crowd (which is VERY important when you have a large wedding party). Lesly made the whole process a breeze! We are so thankful for her and her talent!”
-Jessica Gurgainous
“Lesly is AMAZING! She captured our Sugarloaf elopement and made the whole process fun and easy for us. She was very communicative, organized, professional, and a joy to work with. She was everything we were looking for in a photographer and she exceeded our expectations. We’ve never been professionally photographed before, but she made the process feel so natural and easy. Everything flowed so organically as she was taking photos. She always had the best suggestions and made us feel comfortable all at once.”
- Gloria Rinonos
“When the wedding day finally came Lesly was just perfect. Even despite the rain, she worked with us to get photos outside and helped me position my dress so it wouldn't get wet during our first look. Her photos truly are dreamy and we know that we will be cherishing them for the rest of our lives.”
- Carol Anderson
Wedding Experience
- You want to partner with a wedding photographer you can trust to listen to your needs — and work tirelessly to meet them.
- You know that your wedding is anything but cookie-cutter and you want a record of its creativity and heart.
- You’re worried about getting your family to pose (you can leave that all to me).
- You want to take the traditional experience of wedding photography one step farther, and have video interviews with your family members to cherish for decades to come.
What’s Included in The Wedding Experience
- A detailed pre-event consultation.
- An engagement photo session.
- Two photographers on-site at your event for eight hours.
- A video journalist and 20+ minute interview compilation featuring your loved ones’ comments and heartfelt reactions at your wedding for your Family Time Capsule.
- 450+ professionally edited images to remember the day.
- An engraved-glass USB containing all your images.
But I don’t just take beautiful photos. I also record video interviews with your loved ones. Long after the flowers have wilted and the dance floor has emptied, you’ll have moving, speaking, evergreen documentation of the day you first said I do.
The Investment
You’ve said yes to forever. Your memories should last just as long. When I take photos and record videos at a wedding, I don’t have a checklist that I use for every other event. In my eye, no two weddings — and no two love stories — are the same. I bring my heart, soul, and extensive training into documenting weddings the way they deserve to be seen: As a once-in-a-lifetime piece of family history, to be loved and cherished for generations to come.

Yes! And here’s why: An engagement session is not only an opportunity to get to interact with me, your photographer, before one of the most important days of your life, but also an opportunity to spend quality time with one another and come away with beautiful, quality photos from your time together as an engaged couple. Won’t that be something to share with the grandkids?!

When you’re looking back on your life, you’ll want photos and videos to remember your moments by. Fifty years from now, you’ll WANT to remember the smile your best friend cracked on the dance floor, the joke your grandpa made, the silly dance move your husband busted out. Interviews allow us to convey not only how the day looked and felt, but also what was said and by who.
