“I don’t even know where to start—Lee Media was one of the absolute best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first phone call, they made us feel comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. They didn’t just show up to take pictures and videos—they took the time to get to know us, our story, and the moments that mattered most. If there’s one place to invest in your wedding, it’s the photo and video team!! Our Cinematographers, Saul & Ivan and our Photographers, Alexxis & Dana were all top tier! On our wedding day, they were everywhere but never in the way—capturing every laugh, tear, and little glance without us even realizing it. They somehow managed to perfectly balance professionalism with a warm, calming presence that kept us relaxed and in the moment. When we saw our photos and highlight video for the first time, we were blown away. They didn’t just capture how everything looked—they captured how it felt. Every image and clip brought us right back to that day, and we will treasure them forever. If you want a team that will go above and beyond to preserve your memories in the most beautiful, authentic way, you will never regret choosing Lee Media. Thank you so much to everyone who helped capture our day!”

“Brayley was an integral part of our wedding day! Her timeline was so helpful in planning how to get the shots I wanted. She was fun to work with and it just felt like we were hanging out with a friend rather than posing for pictures. The sneak peaks we have gotten back so far are amazing. The golden hour photos have taken my breath away. I would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for both timeless and fun photos. She is so easy to communicate with and I felt like I could ask any question.”

MyKenzie Alexis Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (16 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Scottsdale, AZ

I photograph with the understanding that one day, these images will become part of a family’s most treasured history. Long after the day has passed, they will hold the light, the emotion, and the quiet beauty that words cannot. My approach is rooted in presence—observing with care, honoring what unfolds naturally, and preserving the fleeting moments that often matter most. I believe photographs should do more than document how things looked; they should return you to how it felt to be there, surrounded by love, meaning, and connection.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I’m writing this the day after our wedding, and without seeing a single picture, I need to sing her praises. In our engagement pictures, MyKenzie captured *us.* For most, being photographed is incredibly uncomfortable but literally after three minutes it felt like we were hanging out with a friend. She’s an expert at capturing you in a way that feels natural while having the best time. Despite us swimming in our own sweat (Aug. 18 in Memphis), our engagement photos are so, so beautiful. MyKenzie has an incredible eye for lighting and is so creative with her framing, but what is so special is that the subjects were not two strangers who look like us, they are us. Yesterday her care, support, and energy made the day that more special. A photographer and human. I’m so grateful MyKenzie was the one to capture this season of our life so beautifully and authentically.”

They truly lived up to their name by capturing every precious moment in the most breathtaking way. The photos are absolutely stunning! Looking through our gallery feels like stepping back into the most incredible day of our lives. The video is cinematic, moving, and flawlessly edited. We’ve watched it more times than we can count and every time, it brings us right back to that moment. What makes Capture Your Legacy stand out even more is who they are behind the camera. Kind, thoughtful, and truly passionate about their craft, they didn’t just document our wedding they told our story with heart and artistry.

“Morgan is an exceptional photographer with so much talent and care for her craft. From day one, she was incredibly professional, thoughtful, and organized. Working with her was so easy and straightforward. She told us exactly what she needed from us, and she was always prompt with her communication. We loved working with Morgan for so many reasons, but her thoughtfulness, sincerity, and flexibility are particular memorable. Especially with all the chaos that comes with the wedding, it was refreshing to have Morgan be in charge of our photos, because she kept a cool demeanor and was easy going, but prescriptive. Beyond her professionalism and personality, my family, friends, and I are absolutely stunned by how beautiful our photos came out. The photos were creative while maintaining timeless elegance. Morgan's expertise with outdoor photography was perfect for our venue because we had a lot of natural sunlight come through our space since we had a lot of windows. I truly cannot express how thankful I am that Morgan was our photographer. I wish we could have another vent just to have her do more photography for us! Her turn around time was extremely reasonable as well!”

I’m Kirstin! An emotionally driven, film-forward wedding photographer based in the desert Southwest. I work with wildly-in-love couples who want their wedding to feel like them: artful, offbeat, deeply intentional. I photograph elopements and micro-weddings with a storytelling lens- capturing not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My work blends digital + 35mm film to preserve the honest, unposed, heart-full moments in all their textured, tear-filled, windswept beauty. My couples tend to be nostalgic, a little nontraditional, and full of feeling. If that’s you- you’re in the right place.

I’m a Phoenix-based wedding and lifestyle photographer focused on capturing real, meaningful moments as they naturally unfold. My approach is calm, organized, and intentional, helping couples feel comfortable in front of the camera so their photos feel genuine and true to who they are. I document the full story of a wedding day—from the big moments to the quiet in-between—so you can look back and remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.

“Upon receiving our gallery, I was blown away by the talent, storytelling, emotion, and love Bella captured. There are truly no words to express my gratitude for Bella, her skill, and her attention to detail. Bella ensured that our day flowed naturally and never felt forced or posed. She captured our love, our full range of emotions, and every simple little detail, all without ever taking us away from each other or the moment. She was always present in the background, yet somehow made it feel, in every moment, like it was just the two of us. And the film; oh my gosh! Her talent with digital photography is incredible, but the film was the cherry on top. Bella has a way of taking a photo that puts you right back into the moment. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve looked through our gallery and felt completely teleported back to our wedding day. She doesn’t just take beautiful photos; she tells the story of your day through them. We eloped in Northern Arizona, and through all the planning, I never once worried about the photography. Bella handled everything professionally and with so much care and compassion that she made you feel like she was a close personal friend. Having someone you trust that completely on such an intimate and emotional day is invaluable. I will forever gush about how in love we are with our wedding photos. Bella gave us something we will cherish for the rest of our lives, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. If you are considering Bella for your wedding, book her. You will be so incredibly grateful you did.”

My gift with the camera is capturing the beauty of the moment. I love telling stories through pictures to keep memories alive, using the click of a shutter to make time stand still. I was inspired to become a photographer when I was young, before the days of digital cameras and cell phones. My eye for photography was first developed along side film, and this fascination set me off to see what I could do with light and lenses. The images you see today are the results of my long, passionate love affair with the camera, developed by life's most precious resource: time.

“This is Nancy from Grateful Soundz Entertainment, As a wedding vendor ourselves, it is amazing when other vendors show up and have that winning attitude! Mary was just that! She was professional and easy to work with. The wind was something fierce this day and we were working outside all day in a Ranch setting and it did not damper the mood. We were able to work together with efficiency making the day roll so smoothly. She was clear with us on what she needed as a photographer and as the DJ we were able to make the appropriate announcements to help direct the guests setting everything up to capture the key moments that the Bride & Groom had. Mary was on the ball and on point the entire day. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Mary for the first time and sure hoping to work with her again in the future.”

Whether you are throwing a massive get together with all of your friends and family, or putting together a smaller, more intimate wedding day, no day will come close in comparison. I have always loved capturing weddings in a documentary fashion. I don't do super posed photos but instead I like to capture moments as they happen. I don't lay out intricate patterns with bobbins, ribbon and invitations, but instead photograph the small details in their true and simplistic form.

Weddings are fleeting, but photographs are forever. My name is David, and for over 20 years, I've been capturing moments that outlive the cake, the confetti, and even some dance moves you swore you'd never show in public. I didn’t just fall into photography—I grew into it. My first wedding was in 1991, with a camera that weighed nearly as much as a toddler. Since then, I've photographed numerous love stories, each as unique as the couple themselves. From vineyard vows to backyard bliss, I’ve learned that every wedding is its own world—and my job is to preserve it in the most authentic, heartfelt way possible.

I find peace in its silence, strength in its mountains, and joy in every climb beneath the endless sky. DA Erickson Photography now offers a unique bridal experience: a pre- or post-wedding session set amidst the wild beauty of the desert. For mine, David met me at my doorstep and guided me through rugged trails to a secluded mountain peak, where the land meets the heavens. Up there, with the wind whispering through the rocks and the golden light wrapping around me, I felt something sacred. David captured it all—moments of awe, laughter, and quiet grace—in breathtaking photographs and playful videos that I’ll treasure forever. If your heart beats for adventure and your love story deserves a setting as bold as your spirit, I wholeheartedly recommend David. He doesn’t just take pictures—he tells stories carved in sunlight and stone.”

I’m Zach Beazer, and I photograph weddings exclusively on film. Before that, I cut my teeth in live music and portrait photography—also on film—where I learned to capture fleeting, genuine moments. Over the years, I’ve documented more than 200 weddings, each one with the same care and intention I had on my very first roll. I believe your wedding photos should feel personal, timeless, and true to you—not just a checklist of posed shots. My goal is to listen closely to what matters most to you, then create an honest, artful film gallery you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

“Zach and his wife Kirsten were the calm during the storm of a crazy wedding day! They helped ease our nerves and perfectly captured the vibe we wanted for our wedding photos. Romantic, candid, fun, artsy, beautiful! They listened to everything we asked for and didn’t judge my laundry list of family pics. The behind the scenes/candids of our guests were really important to us, and we got some great shots. Communication was great from start to finish. Note: Splurge for the film package! Those shots are extra dreamy. Thank you Path & Pines!!!!”
