Hi! I’m Leah.
I’m a full-service, freelance photographer & videographer based in Atlanta, GA dedicated to documenting the beauty of life’s moments - big and small. Up until recent years, I worked as a side-hustle portrait photographer looking to make some extra cash and have fun doing it. While I still look to have fun, my sights have shifted to the world of sports media.
I believe sports are a powerful storytelling medium and, at their best, act as a catalyst for social change. My background in broadcast journalism, my creative and project management experience, and the fact that I’m a massive women’s sports fan myself, make me a stellar candidate for any sports media role.
From a young age I’ve always had a creative muscle that needs exercising, my photography is just one manifestation of this. Outside of my photo work, I love cooking, painting & writing.
I’m excited to bring your vision to life for you to share your story the way it deserves to be told. I’d love to hear from you for any and all photo & video needs. If you have a funky idea for a shoot, I want to hear it! Let’s make something cool together.

Planning for social media advertising, SEM campaigns, high-impact, and custom integrations
Juggling many projects each week, maintaining quality under tight deadlines and frequent changes
Daily problem-solving and developing team best practices as the first Client Partner in this role
