Alyssa Leicht

5.0

Des Moines, IA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,700

I’m Alyssa. You can call me Lys. (It rhymes with Kiss) ☺ I'm a photographer based in Des Moines, Iowa. I travel often. Couples, elopements, and small weddings are my speciality. My style leans documentary, timeless, and sincere, with some avant-garde editorial vibes, artsy influences, and good old fashioned weirdness mixed in. I love color, flash, film, and all things non-traditional. I got my start in music photography, which greatly informs my shooting style, and have been documenting Iowa's music scene and touring with bands for over 10 years!

I'm a micro-wedding venue owner and I recently hosted a gorgeous LGBTQ+ styled shoot. From beginning to end Alyssa was a pleasure to work with. She initiated correspondence - including overall vision, clear expectation, and a comprehensive schedule for all vendors. Her ability to pull a vision together and pay attention to detail are equally strong. She had the ability to manage a project while simultaneously making all vendors and models feel comfortable. She excels at bringing out the most of her models & left the venue in great condition. I will not hesitate to work with Alyssa again - She's an absolute pleasure!

I’ve been taking pictures for as long as I can remember! My mom bought me my first digital camera when I was in middle school and I carried it with me everywhere. Then in high school I learned how to use a 35mm film camera and developed my own photos and my love grew from there. I’ve definitely incorporated a film inspired style in the way I edit my photos. I love capturing love in all it’s authenticity.

Love Knot Photography

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Isaac and Love Knot Photography was the best decision we made for our wedding day! What a team! The photos turned out amazing and we were super impressed by their professionalism and work ethic. I had all kinds of family and guests commenting about how great of a job the photographers were doing. And after the wedding, the results are simply stunning. What an amazing set of photographs for us to remember the whole day. I'm so happy with everything. Thank you!

I was a musician at the same wedding Anna photographed. I saw her handle a *tricky* mother of the groom with grace, while still still honoring the bride and groom’s wishes. It was rather a pickle to be in. Also, her personality is super fun. I enjoyed working with her.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Lucia Giuseppina Photography

Snohomish, WA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Altoona, IA for additional fees

My style is rooted in a editorial and documentary approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that capture genuine emotions. I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely recommend Lucia for any photography needs - my fiance and I had such a great time during our engagement session. Neither one of us had ever had professional photos taken of us before, so this was new for both of us. Lucia made it feel easy - but most importantly FUN! She was super helpful in picking a location and time that worked best for our needs and style as a couple. She also asked if we had any preference for particular poses, which at the time we didn't, so we followed her lead and absolutely loved the way the photos turned out. We are so excited for our wedding day, and the memories that will be captured beautifully by Lucia.
