Kassandra N. Sent on 07/17/2022Unforgettable pictures!
We had our wedding 3 weeks ago and we received our pictures from Leo about a week ago. We cannot begin to describe how grateful we are to have found him and his crew. They literally captured every moment of our wedding, from the main moments to the smallest details. He really did not miss a single thing.
Leo also photographed our engagement pictures and I was so thrilled with the outcome. I love that he’s not in a rush during your moments, he really goes outside of the box to make the moments picture worthy. He will go the extra mile. We really wanted our dogs captured in our engagement pictures and they are extremely hyper. He managed to work with them and got many beautiful shots of my dogs individually. Throughout the months anticipating the wedding he kept in touch to make sure he was getting all the details of the planning to be prepared for your day. Leo shared the excitement of the event with you and honestly it makes you really look forward to your day even more. Leo already knows he is stuck with us for life in all events we will plan in the future ! I would recommend him in a heart beat ! -

The Greatest Hype Man
My wife and I had the pleasure to work with Leo for our wedding ceremony and photoshoot. He was super professional and personable. We had a very small wedding of only 12 people so we kept the photo package small since we didn't have a ton of guests to focus on. Leo was able to fit right in and charm all of the guests as if he was always meant to be there. He doesn't come with a ton of equipment but that may vary based on the package you're looking for. He was very affordable and made us feel like rockstars when taking photos. He is an excellent hype man and reassured us whenever we felt awkward or out of place. Neither my wife or I are big on photoshoots because they can feel very vain so Leo was able to mix in a lot of natural candid shots in between the formal shoot which made for some nice lifelike photos. The one thing I will callout is that given his light equipment load, he didn't come with a ton of lighting options which could have come in handy for the church since it was a bit dim in the sanctuary. However, I reiterate that that may change with higher packages. Overall, very pleased with the experience. -

Where do I begin?! Leo photographed our engagement photos and that entire day confirmed for us we wanted to hire him for our wedding. Great communication, quick return time for photos, and he truly captured the memories we were looking for. -

Highly Recommended Wedding Photographer!
I’ve worked alongside Leonard at several weddings and photoshoots where I provided bridal beauty services, and it’s always a fantastic experience!
He knows how to capture every moment beautifully with an eye for detail and a genuine passion for his craft. His ability to make couples and their guests feel at ease is evident, resulting in stunning, natural photos that truly reflect the joy and love of their wedding day.
He’s friendly, professional, and incredibly talented. I highly recommend Leo to any couple looking for a photographer who will not only deliver exceptional photos but also enhance the overall experience of their special day -

Leo was a wonderful part of our wedding experience. He was great to work with from our initial introductory calls -- friendly, warm, thoughtful. He was a seamless part of the wedding day itself, taking beautiful, dynamic photos. We highly recommend Leo! Our wedding album and engagement/post-wedding shoot pics turned out wonderfully. Thanks!

Leonard was extremely easy to work with. I contacted him less than two weeks from my Elopement & he came through with no hesitation. He was also very polite & professional. -

Tiffani Sent on 12/03/2023Truly amazing !!
I really don’t know where to begin with leonard . He was amazing ! He was on time , actually he was early and checked out the venue and knew all the spots that would be perfect before I even got there . My ceremony was outside and it was rather cold and we lost sun light that day and leonard didn’t miss a beat . He knew exactly what to do bc my pictures came out perfect ! Also my nightmare happened about an hour into photos , We lost power!! I was devastated but honestly some of those were my fav pictures that leonard took ! I have no idea how he knew how to handle even a blackout ! But he did ! I’m so thankful I went with him and will keep him in mind for any of my future events !! -

Quentin H. Sent on 11/28/2023Stunning and extremely friendly NYC based photographer
My husband and I got married in Brooklyn, New York in Fall 2023. We quickly identified Leonard as our top choice because of his affordable prices and customizable packages. Despite not having the largest budget, Leonard worked with us to create a custom package that included everything we needed.
We had two different photographers, Leonard and a colleague, and it was the best decision we ever made. We got our photos back in a little over a week, which is an extraordinary turnaround time. All in all, Leonard captured about a thousand shots - all of which were edited and posted to an online gallery. He is also extremely creative and came up with some great poses and locations for some pre-wedding shots.
We honestly couldn't be happier with our choice. Leonard was great at communicating with us as well, always asking what we wanted to see. He went above and beyond by giving me his coat when it started raining pretty heavily as we walked to our venue, so I'd stay dry. We cannot recommend him enough! Fantastic! -

Truly Phenomenal
Leo, our photographer, was recommended by my niece, who is a model, and we're absolutely thrilled that we chose him. He skillfully captured our micro wedding on a rainy day, turning the photos into something truly phenomenal. Despite the weather challenges, Leo's kindness and exceptional talent shone through every picture. He not only took numerous shots but also added perfect finishing touches, making the photos extraordinary. We're immensely pleased and grateful for Leo's work. We highly recommend him and are thankful for the recommendation from my niece. -

Gianna T. Sent on 11/10/2023That guy! 🩷🩷
Leo was literally the perfect photographer for our big day. He vibed so well with our entire family as well as our videographer team. He also got our photos back to us, over 700+ photos all edited, within like 2 weeks of our wedding which was crazy fast!! But also SO on brand for him. Leo did our engagement shoot as well and within 48 hours of the shoot he had our photos back to us. Whether it be a freezing March day or a hot, raining, September afternoon, Leo is your guy!!! -

Nathan C. Sent on 08/15/2023Leonard is fantastic
After a few other photographers tried to upcharge me thousands of dollars for a wedding photography package, I felt like I’d never find a professional photographer who would listen to my vision and be able to execute on it.
In planning my wedding I learned that most vendors only listen long enough until they figure out how to pull emotional cords and then dip into my pockets. It's disgusting.
This happened with venues, florists and photographers.
Then I messaged Leonard. He got back to me within the hour and we were able to talk through my wants and needs and settle on a contract that was fair and equitable for both of us.
I didn't need a music video of my wedding produced by a videographer. I'm not famous and didn't need tens of thousands of shots from a team of photographers. I wanted the ceremony captured in pictures, along with wedding party photos and some candids of our guests during the cocktail hour - some great shots I could post on my social accounts and something to include along with this year's Christmas card.
Leonard was fully committed to this. He arrived early, set up, and began shooting. He got amazing shots of us getting ready, the ceremony, the wedding party, the guests, everything. And his turnaround time was only 8 days.
I could not recommend Leonard enough. -

Leo, you are amazing!!! Thank you for everything!! -

Leonard is an amazing photographer. He showed up to my wedding on time and was very professional. I didn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable for him to be photographing me. I felt like I have known him for years.
Professional, he was available and alert to capture every moment, no matter how big or small or insignificant I thought it was.
He is very flexible and accommodating. He had packages/plans that didn’t fit my budget or what I was looking for at my wedding. But we worked together and made it happen. I am glad I chose him.
I would definitely hire him again without hesitation and recommend him to family and friends. -

Leonard was amazing. Besides his amazing eye, attention to detail, and mindfulness - he's an amazing person. He is present and captures the key moments when everything is happening too quickly and everyone is all over the place. his portraits are also awesome - he's got a way to bring out everyone's true self. Thank You! -

Michelle S. Sent on 04/10/2023Wow! Amazing
Married 03/18/2023 & planned in four months, Okpur was my THIRD photographer/videographer. My first two was severely unresponsive. I was in touch with Okpur from November up until my wedding. I hired Okpur and his team a week before my wedding due to issues with my others. Okpur was super professional, responsive, polite, and his work is OUTSTANDING!!! I sooooo enjoyed having him and his team at my wedding and he made the whole experience easy!!! I regret not hiring him in November - I wouldve had a much less stressful experience. I am so pleased to refer him to anyone and everyone. Not only was his work and his presence amazing - his prices were very reasonable for a wedding in New York! Thank you so much Okpur & Team for making things easy and pleasant for me. I will definitely hire if I ever need services again. -

Leonard is patient, friendly and takes breathtaking photos
My (now) husband and I got married in December in Central Park and Leonard happily faced the cold weather to photograph our big day. Wow, I can’t recommend Leonard enough - in an overwhelming and often intimidating haze of wedding photographers to choose from, Leonard was patient, friendly, and so on top of things.
Leonard took photos of our morning ceremony at Cop Cot in Central Park as well as our portraits afterward around the city. I was worried that taking time out of our day to take some extra photos around the city would detract from the magic of the day but Leonard made the experience fun, easy, and exciting. He professionally and beautifully captured our love for each other and our love for New York City. His photos are truly enchanting.
I hope I don’t get married again but if I did, I wouldn’t 100 percent use Leonard. -

Amazing Photography!
Leonard is absolutely amazing to work with. He’s very good at what he does, makes you feel comfortable and beautiful in every picture. My husband and I hired him for our wedding and he was a very quick responder, as well as kind and easy to communicate with. Definitely recommend him as your photographer and will be hiring him again in the future! -
