My daughter and I had the best time at our photoshoot with Lea and the photos were amazing! My toddler is usually quite shy around new people and she warmed up to Lea immediately. She was on time, professional, gave good direction and brought some props to make the photos more fun. Great with kids and the turn around to receive your photos was very fast. Will 100% get future photos done with Lea!
We had such a special time having our photos taken for a Mommy&Me session. Lea was patient, accommodating and kind during the session.
I always feel like photos have the power of turning emotions into something palpable and Lea did an amazing job capturing those moments. I teared up the moment I opened the link to the gallery because I could literally feel the love by looking at the photos. Thank you Lea for helping us create such special memories.
Lea just did our family fall photos. It was our first time with Lea and I must say it was such a pleasure to meet her. She was so kind and very patient with our two girls (1 and 2yrs old) they were not in the best mood and Lea still managed to capture some beautiful moments! She is GREAT with children. Our photos turned out amazing! Will definitely be using her again in the future. :)
I recently did a maternity shoot that included my 20-month old son and for the first time ever he decided to have an absolutely meltdown for the majority of it. And even so, Lea was SO patient and good with him. I was shocked with how flawless the photos turned out considering how difficult it was keeping the kiddos composure. They are beautiful. And Something I can treasure forever now all because she made it possible. Highly recommend.
Lea made us feel so comfortable during our photos and captured our family so well. She knows all the tricks to get a toddler to smile and even had our dog posing like a star. The photos she provided us were fabulous and are a beautiful memory for us to keep forever. Thank you Lea!
My experience with Lea May Photography was nothing short of amazing!! She has such a great personality which made getting comfortable in front of the camera easy. She captured wonderful moments and provided me with top notch memories with my son. I will definitely be back for any future photoshoots and highly recommend her. THANK YOU so much !!!
We used Lea May photography for an autumn twilight mini session and we were blown away. She was able to capture gorgeous family photos, even when dealing with an uncooperative 3 year old, dog that kept straying and a three month old baby. She was kind and thoughtful through the whole process from booking to receiving our photos. We will be back!
Lea did some mothers day minis for us and I'm so impressed. She was on time, prepared and didn't bat an eye at my wild boys. She sent me the proofs and edits in a quick turnaround. I was also impressed with her location choice and set up.
Lea was absolute incredible to work with! She was fun, professional, and easy going. It can be challenging to work with two young kids, but Lea was so patient and provided excellent direction throughout our session. Lea captured our family absolutely perfectly in a way that was fun and real, and the resulting photos were absolutely stunning!
We just had our 4th session and are as pleased as we always are. She truly captures the candid moments and angles. I cannot rave enough about our in home maternity session with an unruly toddler. She captured the most incredible moments and photos with a Toddler running around. I was worried about a 15 minute mini session because that’s about how long it can take a 2 year old and 9 month old to put a shoe on…. But she did it. Once again, amazing shots that captured it all :) Lea is a natural.
We got family Christmas photos taken by Lea and they are stunning! She was friendly, professional, and so great with our kids! We would definitely work with Lea again in the future.
