Monica Leavell Photo

Monica Leavell is a destination wedding photographer known for refined, editorial imagery with genuine heart. She has been photographing weddings since 2015, and after several years documenting elopements around the world, she has returned to her first love: full, beautiful wedding celebrations. Seeing the world remains one of her greatest joys, and she is especially drawn to Europe, where old-world architecture, sun-washed villas, and centuries of romance make the perfect backdrop for timeless imagery.

Before photographing weddings, Monica spent years in hospitality as an event coordinator and in catering, working in luxury hotels and Michelin-starred restaurants. There she learned to anticipate needs before they are spoken, the precision behind a seamless experience, and the beauty in every detail. Today that shapes everything she does, from building timelines around the best light to sensing a moment before it unfolds. Couples leave with images and heirloom albums they will treasure for generations.
