About

I started Saperstone Studios with one simple goal, to deliver more than just beautiful photos, but an unforgettable experience. As a wedding photographer in Chandler, Arizona, I specialize in capturing real, emotional moments that tell your unique love story. Based in the East Valley, I photograph weddings across Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Queen Creek, and Tempe and I also travel to Washington, DC and destinations beyond for couples who love my vibrant, modern style.

What truly sets my work apart is my obsession with light. I don’t just rely on natural light, I bring creative studio lighting on location to transform ordinary spaces into something bold, artistic, and full of color. Whether it’s a Chandler desert sunset or a glowing reception under string lights, I use light to create images that feel timeless, expressive, and uniquely you.

And when the sun goes down? That’s when I come alive. I love night photography, the glow, the drama, and the magic that comes from crafting light in the dark. Every flash, every reflection is intentional, creating standout images that are anything but predictable.

If you’re looking for a Chandler or East Valley wedding photographer who blends creativity, color, and emotion, with the flexibility to travel to DC and beyond, let’s create something extraordinary together.

Leigh Ann was awesome. My partner and I aren't big into weddings and she completely understood! She handled our shoots with enthusiasm and professionalism. Our wedding photos are uniquely us and we love that. She managed to turn my family's phone obsession into something photo worthy-- which was no easy feat. She is one of the most technically skilled wedding photographers we've ever met. Her ability to capture the candid nature of her clients is unparalleled in the area. We would recommend Leigh Ann to anyone who is looking for well shot photos. Leigh Ann is able to make an entire scene wok. It was truly impressive.

Leigh Ann was great to work with. We were worried we might look too posed or staged when it came time to take pictures but Leigh Ann is so easy to work with and she made us feel very comfortable. The engagement photos and wedding party photos turned out beautifully and she was able to capture many awesome moments during our ceremony and reception. Thanks Leigh Ann!

We are so happy with the beautiful and touching moments Leigh Ann Saperstone photographed on our Wedding day!

She executed the vision we had hoped for but also took many more shots to capture the setting and lighting. Her planning and advice were perfect!
The candid photos are beautiful and sweet. All are intimate in nature and exceptional in quality. We were hoping to find a photographer that works well in low light--and she does!

Leigh Ann is professional, kind, thoughtful, and enjoyable to have at your wedding. Above all, she is an excellent photographer with vision and consideration for all details. She will capture your memories while you enjoy the day! The end result are many priceless perfect photographs! :).

Leigh Ann and her team were a real treat to work with. My new husband and I didn't really consider ourselves photogenic when having someone else photograph us - but Leigh Ann nailed it. She quickly put us at ease and took the most flattering, natural and effortless photos of us for our engagement and our wedding. She was excellent with communication and was very flexible with our schedules. On the day of our wedding, she and her team captured all the important moments that were important to us and some that I didn't even know that was happening. For example - one of my cousins did a back flip on the dance floor and there was a perfect photo of it caught while he was mid air! Simply amazing work.

We highly recommend her services!.

My husband found Leigh Ann for our proposal. He wanted it to be a surprise and hired Leigh Ann to capture the proposal and then engagement pictures right after. Leigh Ann allowed the moment to be a very intimate, private moment between my husband and I while capturing the excitement and joy of the moment. I felt like I have known Leigh Ann for years. She is so friendly and nice and makes sure that the pictures are turning out well. She is extremely creative and our engagement pictures are amazing. People are still talking about those pictures. Leigh Ann had us over to review all of the engagement pictures and we received all of them in a very timely manner.

Fast forward a year and it was a no brainer to use Leigh Ann for our wedding. She had a photographer friend come along for our engagement pictures and he was the same one that came for our wedding. We felt like we had a great relationship with Leigh Ann from the time we were engaged to the wedding. She stayed in touch throughout the entire process, was extremely flexible with the rules from our church and the venue. She even scouted out areas around the venue for us to take pictures. Leigh Ann arrived on time for our wedding pictures. She has such a fun energy and it was so nice for me to have her there. She really puts everyone at ease. Leigh Ann will literally do ANYTHING for a great picture and we got a lot of great ones!! After our ceremony, it started raining. Leigh Ann was game for getting out and taking picture in the rain. My husband and I were okay with getting a little wet and we had such a fun time with Leigh Ann in the rain! She got pictures of EVERYONE and EVERYTHING during the reception. We got a lot of great pictures outside at night as well.

We got our pictures (on a flash drive) and album all within a very timely manner--quicker than I expected.

I would highly recommend Saperstone Studios and will use Leigh Ann for all of my photographer needs :-)

Leigh Ann is a wonderful photographer. I have 3 boys, ages 6, 4, and 3 months and Leigh Ann is so patient with them. She just rolls with whatever their mood. You don’t want to smile? Fine, let’s roar like dinosaurs instead. She builds in enough time so that she can work around the baby’s schedule, allowing him time to take breaks, to eat and fall back to sleep. There is no rushing, there is no glancing at her watch. The sessions are fun and in the end, we have beautiful pictures. She did a wonderful job capturing their personalities.

Leigh Ann was a family recommendation to do our engagement shoot and lived up to the already high expectations that we had. Along with being very professional, she was able to tailor our shoot to meet our more unique desires. My fiancee and I didn't know exactly what we wanted to do, but knew that we wanted something unique. Leigh Ann was able to provide a variety of options and locations with us eventually deciding on a paint war which was really fun! Following the engagement shoot, Leigh Ann also made our Save The Date cards. I would highly recommend using Leigh Ann. She was very easy and enjoyable to work with and the quality of her product was definitely top notch.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
