About Leslie Joy Photography
Leslie Joy Photography
With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, I believe your wedding day deserves to be remembered as more than a collection of moments — it should feel like a rich story, with visceral emotions coursing through each scene. As a former wedding planner turned photographer, I document each chapter with an editorial eye and a genuine heart. My approach is guided by light and emotion, both intentional and effortless. Every image is composed with purpose, full of honesty and elegance, and alive with feeling. Your story is already extraordinary. My work ensures it’s remembered that way — beautifully, and forever.
My work is a blend of both traditional portraiture and candid imagery. I focus on the big moments and the small details to provide a full picture of what the day looked and felt like, with a signature edit that will allow your memories to endure for decades to come. Most importantly, I want to create space for you to fully be present in the moment, with peace of mind knowing you'll be able to revisit these unforgettable memories again and again.

Wish I could give 10 stars!
Leslie captured our engagement shoot in October 2024 and wedding in November 2025 and words can’t describe how perfect it was to work with her! From day 1, she was professional, personable, and took time to get to know us as a couple to understand our dynamic. Her professionalism truly is unmatched. On wedding day, she and her team were on time, prepared, and made the intimate moments comfortable. It happened to rain on our wedding day, which moved our ceremony indoors, and our photos came out better than I ever imagined. We will cherish the beautiful photos she took of us and our families forever.

Leslie Joy Photography exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.
Perfect Photographer for our Spanish Hills Wedding
Leslie and her team shot the photography for my wedding. The pictures were everything we could have hoped for. Even with unpredictable weather the day of, her team produced incredible results. In addition, at each step during our wedding day, she made us feel comfortable through our various photo sessions, ensuring we had food, water, and drinks at the ready when we needed them. Prior to our wedding day, Leslie's communication and scheduling with us was flawless. She was extremely considerate of our wants and needs and curated a shot list that was perfect for us. Overall, I'd recommend Leslie Joy Photography to any and every couple getting married in the Southern California area.
Leslie was an absolute dream to work with
Leslie was an absolute dream to work with on our wedding day! From the moment we met her, she brought such a fun and positive energy that made everything feel effortless. She was not only incredibly professional, but also so creative—she had the best ideas that made our photos feel truly special and unique. My husband and I had such a great time with her—no stress, just genuine laughter and unforgettable moments. We’re so grateful to have had her capture our big day so beautifully. Thank you, Leslie!
