I am thrilled you are interested in choosing me to document your special day! I believe that choosing a wedding photographer is about more than just hiring someone with a camera to document your day. Your wedding photographer should be someone who inspires you, and someone who eases wedding day jitters. And, hopefully someone who eventually becomes a friend. I'm excited to give you a little tour so you can learn more about me - the process of working together - and my wedding collections!
Let's get you two married!!! The day of your wedding goes by in an instant. I want to make sure it’s the most fun and stress free day possible, for not just you, but your family and friends. Right when I arrive I’ll begin with photographing your details. My absolute favorite part of the day is the couple portraits, so we’ll ensure we have plenty of time for this!
My goal as a photographer is to make sure you have the most fun and stress free day possible. Because of that, I am extremely organized when it comes to your wedding day plans! Leading up to the day, I will help you create a detailed timeline for the day and a family formal photo list to ensure everything runs smoothly. About one month out from the wedding, we’ll have a video call to go over any final details to ensure all goes well the day of!
This is one of my favorite parts! Engagement sessions are included in every one of my wedding packages because I truly believe they are a vital part of the wedding experience as a whole. Engagement sessions are the time where we get to know each other, I get to see how you interact together, and you become comfortable in front of my camera.
It is so important to me to have a connection with each and every one of my couples. I always say I want to show up to your wedding day and feel like a friend or an extra bridesmaid, rather than a hired vendor. So that means our very first step is connecting via a Zoom call so we can get to know each other. Once we are officially official we can start planning your engagement session!
You can expect to receive some happy mail in your inbox approximately 6-10 weeks after your wedding with your full image gallery. From this gallery, you will be able to share your images with friends and family, and download all of your images to your computer. You can also order high quality prints from the professional print lab right from the gallery!

After we set up a zoom call and chat, I will send you a contract to review. Once I send you the contract I put your date on hold for one week. If you decide you would like to move forward with me as your wedding photographer, I require the signed contract and a 30% retainer to fully reserve your date.
Engagement sessions are included in every one of my wedding packages for so many reasons! Engagement sessions gives us the opportunity to get to know each other a little bit more before the big day and I get to give you some posing tips that you can remember for your wedding day as well!
Absolutely! I include up to 2.5 hours of travel in my wedding packages. If your wedding venue is farther away than that then a small travel fee will apply. If you are having a destination wedding - let's chat! I have custom flat fees for destination weddings.
Yes and no! This option is included in one of my wedding packages and offered as an a la carte item as well. I don't have a second shooter included in every wedding package because I have photographed plenty of beautiful weddings by myself and a second photographer is not necessary for all weddings. We can discuss further if a second shooter is right for your wedding day.

"Our experience with Leah Redding Photography was truly like a dream come true, surpassing all we had hoped for. From the moment we reached out to inquire about their services, Leah was incredibly responsive and accommodating, easing any concerns we had about capturing our special day. One of the standout positive aspects was the personalized approach Leah took in understanding our vision for the photos. She made the entire photo session a fun and creative adventure, resulting in stunning images that beautifully captured our love and joy. We live in Florida and were planning our wedding in Virginia near family, which was very stressful, but Leah met with us on video calls multiple times to make sure that everything was perfect. She supplied a detailed timeline for when what photos would be taken. Leah was incredibly patient, and kind. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She sent us a sneak peak look just days after the wedding including a variety of pictures. Overall, we are extremely grateful to Leah for her dedication and talent in documenting our special day so beautifully. We would highly recommend Leah Redding Photography to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares about creating lasting memories." - Jess + Jake

"Leah was amazing! From the moment we first met on zoom, we were sure she would be an integral part of our day. Meeting for our engagement photos the first time confirmed we had made the right decision. Neither my husband or I are very "center of attention" or instagram photo type people, but she put us at ease and we enjoyed the shoots and helped us bring our ourselves in the photos. The day of Leah, brought a calmness, levity and friendliness to the day that we both needed. I was nervous all day, but Leah helped me feel more at ease and helped capture all the wonderful moments. Talking to my husband, the groomsmen had a great time with her second shooter (who was also awesome!) and she captured amazing shots as well. Both Leah and her kept us on time, in frame and focus without us feeling bossed or annoyed by it. We got married on a partly cloudy day in the spring, Leah made magic happen with difficult lighting (from full sun to overcast and back in 5 minutes) and we love our photos." — Kate + Allen
Ally and Mike, The Estate at Independence
"We absolutely LOVED having Leah photograph our January 2024 wedding. 🤍 If you are looking for a photographer who will truly “get” you as a couple, you’ve found the right gal! Leah is such a genuine and lovely person in general and conducts her business like a true professional. We enjoyed getting to know her with our engagement portraits and love that she gets creative with her art for some unexpected beautiful shots. Our wedding photos were perfect and we received so many compliments. We highly recommend Leah Redding Photography!" - Ally + Mike
