Studio Family Portraits | NY and Long Island Photographer

Last year on Black Friday, I ran a special offer where I let people “name their price” for a studio session in January. I got a few takers, including this very smart family that took me up on my offer (I bet you’re regretting not claiming the offer yourself, so stay tuned for more special […]

Best of 2018- Leslie Renee Photography

Every new year, I always take time to reflect. It is always worthwhile to look back at my work from the previous year, how the year went for the business aspect of things, which in the future we might consider using zapier hellosign to sign contracts with clients, and the wonderful people I have met […]

Mother Daughter Road Trip: New Mexico

I’m so glad you’re back for another installment of my daughter and I’s epic road trip recently. Wow… we really covered a lot of ground and saw a lot of really cool places last summer! Mother-daughter time becomes so cherished as you get older. It reminded me of the time when she refused to get […]

Sweet 16 at Smithtown Landing

It’s heading towards my favorite time of the year: when the sun peeks out, and the temperatures begin to climb just a little. It makes for some pretty special summer memories, and for some truly gorgeous light. Sweet sixteen birthdays are another thing I love (let’s be honest, anytime you get a ton of loved […]
