I was originally introduced to Leslie (owner and photographer) by a friend 3.5 years ago and she's been our family photographer ever since! She did newborn shoots at my home for both of my children, 1st birthday cake smash photo sessions for both boys, and multiple family sessions. We've shot in our home, outside and at her studio. Every time we have been thrilled with the entire experience and especially happy with the curated photos she delivers promptly and seamlessly through an online site. The photos are beautiful and full of life. There is zero stress working with Leslie which is part of why I think the sessions always turn out amazing - she allows for plenty of time to let kids be kids, dogs be dogs, some outfit changes, snack breaks, potty breaks, etc. Best of all she always manages to capture of few of these sweet everyday moments along with some of the family portraits I request. Her flexibility and willingness to work with the 'look' I am hoping for but also bringing in her incredible talent and eye makes for a great mix of photos. Can't recommend Shuttersmack highly enough!

Leslie is AMAZING! She's been taking our family's photos for the past seven years. Her ability to capture the attention of our small children (and even pets! ) in her photos is remarkable, and you can see all of our personalities shine through! More...

Leslie captured the natural beauty of our dogs and we will cherish the pictures forever! We are in awe of the results. She took the time initially to get our dogs comfortable (as we have a dog who is mostly blind and somewhat nervous around new people and things). She was easy to work with, flexible and we received our edited photos quickly. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone else and I'm certain we will be using her services again. Thanks Leslie!!

Leslie has an unmatched talent that I just can’t get over! She was our wedding photographer and captured some amazing moments. And now two years later, she’s taking pictures of our new born baby. Leslie has such a unique eye. She finds angles and poses that turn out so naturally yet different in the photos. Can’t wait to fill our home with these beautiful photos! Thank you Leslie!! Oh, and not to mention she’s super comfortable to be around and has an incredible personality! More...

So thrilled with our pictures from Shuttersmack Photography! Leslie did such a good job with our kids and really captured what we wanted in a beautiful, sunny, Summer evening in Minneapolis! We'd definitely recommend her and will probably have her do our family pics again next year!! More...

Leslie is the best! We've had her capture our new baby/girls/family four times now and she never fails to impress. She is a super pro at getting your kids to smile/laugh/act naturally. And she is so fast and efficient that my husband doesn't even complain about photo day. :-) More...

Leslie has captured every life moment for us! She is simply THE BEST! From engagement party to newborn pictures she has been there to ensure we have the best photos to remember those precious moments. Leslie helped us stay organized during the insanity of our wedding day not missing a group picture we hoped to get. She came to our home to shoot our newborn which was the sweetest. Leslie is professional, compassionate, relatable & an overall joy to work with. I will always leverage Shuttersmack for all photography needs. Oh & their blog is the best…GO READ IT! More...

Leslie is a top notch photographer and my first recommendation for friends and commercial clients. She took what felt like a sh*t show with our toddler and newborn at our messy house and made us look like well-rested GOOP models. Hire her!

Leslie has been taking our family's annual photos since our daughter was 5 months old. She is now 7 and every year, I am amazed at how well Leslie is able to capture our family's personality through photography. Even when my 10 year old was grumpy, she took it in stride and got him to even smile. More...

We have gotten so many compliments on our Christmas cards again this year, with friends and family joking that we won "Christmas Card of the Year. " This is thanks to Leslie, who was able to catch the kids in very natural poses that captured a special moment. Leslie is also so fun and easy to work with, helping us try out different poses, and mixing up indoor and outdoor shots. More...

Leslie was such a joy to work with! She took maternity and newborn photos for us, and we loved how laid back she was and how relaxed she made us feel. We also really appreciated how much she loved our dog Sage. :) The pictures and video of our sweet baby girl are things we will cherish for the rest of our lives! More...

Leslie has been our photographer for all of our significant life events—our wedding, maternity photos and then newborn photos. She makes everyone at ease (even our somewhat difficult pup) and when our sweet baby wasn’t in a very sweet mood, she still captured some great shots. The results are always beautiful, like featured in Minnesota Bride kinda beautiful. We’ll definitely continue to work with Leslie for many years to come! More...

Leslie is a gem. She captures the best (and silliest and sweetest and most fleeting) expressions out of our sons when she takes our family pictures every year. She makes everyone feel at ease-- and a bonus!-- she always has good stories to tell. We love working with her and can't imagine who wouldn't! More...

Leslie has captured the most authentic and beautiful photos of my family. You know that you’ve found a gem of a photographer when they can simultaneously make your toddler smile, the dog stay, and the adults laugh. All of the photos that she has given us are truly a gift. More...

We are beyond thrilled with our wedding photos by Shuttersmack. First and foremost, Leslie is a talented photographer and beautifully captured the emotions and little details of our big day for us to cherish. Plus she's ridiculously organized, kind-hearted, patient and fun to work with. It was such a relief to work with someone who we 100% trusted and didn't need to worry about anything related to photography. Anyone who's ever planned a wedding will know how much that really matters. :-) More...

Leslie did our engagement photos and our wedding day photos, and we couldn't be happier. From wrangling our 2 husky dogs to photographing in every setting from snow to rain, she takes beautiful photos and keeps your day running smoothly! I would highly recommend her for any of your photography needs! More...

Leslie did a "Rock-and-Roll" photo shoot for my band mug shots around Lake Harriet and Cedar Lake. The photos were amazing, probably the best photos ever taken of me (certainly the only photos ever taken of me that I was excited to share with friends and family). Leslie's demeanor and artistic ideas helped make the shoot a success (not to mention her skills with the camera). It was an amazing experience from start to finish. More...
