Sydnie Leah Photography

Sydnie was an absolute dream to work with. Of all of the wedding planning decisions we made-choosing her to photograph such a special day was one of the best we made. She's professional, kind and INSANELY talented. We will never get over how perfectly she captured our wedding day and would choose her time and time again!!! More...

Everyone thought that I was crazy to plan a wedding in 6 months, especially one that was for a popular June date. Luckily the stars aligned and I was able to book all of the vendors I had in mind. Sydnie was at the TOP of my list. I gave myself one item to splurge on and it was photography. This was a surprising decision for most that know me because I/we are not a huge fan of being photographed.

I had discovered Sydnie through a college friend who had recently taken absolutely amazing engagement pictures. They captured natural beauty, effortless love, and romantic color. I realized in this moment I had to have her :). I contacted Sydnie immediately and she was prompt on her return email response and worked with me on engagement pictures.

After several conversations trying to convince my now husband to partake in engagement pictures, we were both thrilled with the result and he even thanked me later. She made it so comfortable and it made our wedding day that much better.

The wedding day...Sydnie agreed to make the drive from California to Oregon to capture our day and we are so thankful. Not only did she capture the huge moments but its also all of the little ones that make a wedding. The pictures of me dancing with my new step daughter, the friends that showed up to help us get ready/photo bomb our pictures, the aunts and uncles we haven't seen in years, the tears (mostly myself) that start flowing when your best friend has "the voice of an angle" (those of have watched step brothers will get that reference) while signing James Arthur "Say You Won't Let Go", the hug in the background of a grandfather hugging his grandson saying that he wishes grandma could have seen this. Those are the moments that are too easily forgotten but Sydnie and her lovely assistant captured them beautifully. These moments are priceless.

With that being said, did I mention how much I ABSOLUTELY LOVED our bride and groom pictures! I will forever have them plastered all of our walls. When we have more kids I will show them and remind them how good looking and in love their parents are.

Sydnie was professional and graceful throughout our experience and we could not ask for a better photographer to capture our unforgettable day! More...

My wedding was a more intimate “elopement” type wedding. However, I still wanted amazing photos I could cherish forever. I searched high and low for a photographer who was affordable but would also give me the wedding photos of my dreams. Sydnie actually reached out to me after I had posted an inquiry on Facebook & I am so glad she did. She was above and beyond what I could have envisioned. She’s very professional, sweet, and answered any questions I had about the day of. Not only was she easy to work with but the quality of her photos is outstanding. She captured all of the special moments and even got the small details I never would have thought to ask for a picture of. I would highly recommend her to EVERYONE! More...

Photo sessions at weddings can be stressful. Some of our family members were missing, others were getting restless waiting for their photos. We had a very ambitious list of family photos, and Sydnie was extremely supportive through the whole process. Even though it was a little chaotic, she remained very calm, helpful and professional. It allowed me to relax and enjoy myself. After the wedding during our bride and groom photos we were able to have fun with it and be ourselves. Thank you Sydnie for being so friendly, helpful, and calm! More...

Sydnie is amazing! We had photos taken for our wine business and had a specific vision for the “vibe” of the shoot. She NAILED it. Sydnie scouted the perfect locations for the fun vintage theme we were going for. We could not be more happy with our photos, AND we made a friend in the process!

As soon as I saw Sydnie’s work I instantly knew I wanted her to photograph my wedding! My husband & I are pretty awkward in front of the camera & had never taken professional photos, so I was nervous they wouldn’t turn out how I wanted them to or that we would look silly.

Thankfully Sydnie was such a sweetheart & instantly made us feel comfortable. She directed us without being pushy & had lots of ideas for different poses. You can tell she’s passionate about what she does. Especially when she snaps a few photos, looks down at her camera & says things like “I’m freaking out” over how much she likes the pictures. It was endearing to hear her excitement & in turn made us feel more confident with a camera in our face.

Our engagement photos turned out stunning. We had a handful of them blown up on canvas & placed around the wedding venue. People absolutely loved them.

During the reception my husband, Sydnie & I slipped away to take one on one photos. It was refreshing to have a few minutes of just us two together. By that point Sydnie felt like a friend & all of the nervousness in front of the camera had disappeared.

Lastly, Sydnie is amazing at editing photos! I did not sleep the night before my wedding. I was very tired & I felt like I looked tired. However, you wouldn’t know it by the photos. She somehow managed to make me shine in every photo. Thank god!

If you’re a future bride reading this & you’re on the fence about who to hire for your wedding, go with Sydnie! You won’t regret it. She works with you throughout the entire process & is just a really cool human. It is worth every penny & you will never regret having amazing photos from such a happy day in your life.

P.S. My mother, who was VERY apprehensive about hiring a photographer in Sydnie's price range, has come out multiple times and said she is thrilled we hired Sydnie. She said it was one of the best decisions we made for the wedding! More...

My husband and I met with Sydnie for her to take our family/maternity photos. Sydnie chose a beautiful location and was very flexible in getting the shots that we wanted. She has an eye for light and it shows in her photos. She is easy to get along with and is great at what she does. We have received so many compliments on the photos that she took. I highly recommend Sydnie for engagement/wedding/family/maternity photos. You will not be disappointed! More...

Sydnie made us feel SOOO comfortable, me and my fiancé were a little nervous about our wedding day, every time I talked to Sydnie she made things feel so much less stressful than I had imaged it feeling like. When we did our engagements, I knew we had picked the right photographer, she asked about ourselves and how we met and genuinely cared about our wedding as much we did! I was afraid my now husband would hate taking pictures but he ended up taking me to dinner after our engagements because we had so much fun and it was actually such a good memory we will always have of that day! It was also nice to chat with her throughout the months before the big day because she knows how weddings go and what things need to be talked about! All I can say is she made things so easy and we LOVE our pictures that she sent us! We ended up printing a ton of images and now they are all in our home, I tell all my friends about Sydnie and think everyone should use her! She truly cares and it shows! More...

I email her for a quote and when she sent me her pricing I was so bummed as she was way out of my price range..but after a few emails she asked what my budget was and because it was such last min as well as her not having any events booked on the day I neede her she was willing to charge me my asking price which was one Huge stress relief!!

Sydnie was helpful from thee very beginning! She was the very first vendor I booked, not even a month after getting engaged, and she kept in touch with me perfectly over the last year. She worked with my budget when her packages had a little more than I needed and made it a breeze to work with her. My wedding was last Sunday and it was also the first time Sydnie and I met in person. She made me and my (now) husband feel so comfortable and it was so much fun taking pictures with her. She made sure every shot was as perfect as she could get it. She just sent a few sneak peak images and I am already in awe. I can't wait to see the rest after I saw how beautiful the first batch was. I would absolutely recommend Sydnie to any bride who wants to feel taken care of on her wedding day :) More...

Sydnie was absolutely wonderful on our big day! She was timely, stealthy, and gave us more of her time than we expected as the reception started to wind down. Even though she was out of her element being in the cold on NYE (she's based in California!) - we would certainly recommend her to anyone and everyone regardless of location. Though we have only seen a few of the shots so far - we have been quite pleased with her work, and are looking forward to seeing the rest in the very near future. We will be sure to come back and share more once we do! :) More...

Sydnie was very flexible and understanding! First of all we had to change our wedding date and sydnie was kind and empathetic and made our new wedding date work. The quality of Sydnie’s photos are wonderful. Our only complaint is that we wish there were more poses of me and my husband because most photos of us are us looking at each other and also our exit photos were blurry but those things happen and my husband was VERY sick with the flu on our wedding day so I think Sydnie did not want to push us too much. We love our photos, thank you Sydnie!! More...
