We aren’t the most camera-savvy people, but Leo knew exactly how to guide us, even helping us pose in the most natural way. His direction never felt forced, and that really helped us feel at ease throughout the day. He captured both the important moments and the little in-between ones that we’ll treasure forever. The photos turned out stunning, with beautiful, authentic emotions in every shot. Leo’s ability to balance creativity with making us feel relaxed is truly a gift. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to make you look and feel your best in front of the camera, Leo is the perfect for you wedding.”

  • Susy H.

    “We loved Leo’s work since the beginning, but we were still stunned to see how beautiful our wedding photos came out!!! We would highly recommend this photographer to anyone looking for a photography style that is both natural and beautiful. we got plenty of candid photos alongside posed photos, which is exactly what we wanted :) He is also very professional and has great communication as a bonus.”

  • Jackie

    “Leo and his team were amazing and SO easy to work with on my wedding day. The team was respectful of the space (my home) and gave off this friendly vibe that made the photoshoots feel comfortable and not awkward at all.
    Also, my first experience with Leo was very pleasant - he did our engagement photoshoot at the beach and gave me and my partner a lot of helpful guidance for posing because it definitely doesn’t come natural to us.
    Aside from his warm, professional demeanor, Leo is incredibly efficient! We got our wedding photos in a reasonable timespan and even got to see the photo booth pics by the end of our wedding weekend!”

  • Tina S.

    “Leo was fantastic to work with! He was kind, courteous, and professional and was a very reasonable and easygoing photographer. He and his assistant, Laura were excellent communicators, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Leo was flexible and attentive to our needs, which made planning our wedding day much easier. We appreciated how he has a quiet presence and never intruded on the moment. If you're looking for someone to take charge and direct every shot with intensity, he might not be your style. But for us, his approach was exactly what we wanted. He delivered the edited photos in a timely manner, and we were very happy with how they turned out. Of course, photography is subjective—so if you like the look of his portfolio, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend booking Leo!”

  • Kelly H.

    “I recently hired Leo Do to capture pre-wedding and the precious moments of our wedding day. I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, Leo and his team were an absolute professional, and their passion for their craft shone through in every shot.
    The final photos exceeded all of our expectations. Leo a and his team has a keen eye for detail and composition, and each image told a story of its own. Whether it was the tender moments between us as a couple, the laughter of our guests, or the beauty of the venue, every photograph was a work of art.
    Thank you, Leo and everyone on team for preserving the memories of our wedding day so beautifully!”

    “A friend recommended Leo to me for my wedding day. I would say he did an amazing job. Tbh, I’m camera shy, so I didn’t expect too much. I just want the moment to be saved, but the pictures come out gorgeous. … and his team are extremely professional, he helped with all the posing and smiling. He is always on time or even early. I was stressing out about the wedding but Leo and his team was so friendly, they make the whole photoshoot fun and easy. Because we had a traditional Vietnamese wedding, everything started really early in the morning and lasted the whole day, but Leo always kept it professional (his stamina is amazing). Not only me, my husband, and my family- we all love my wedding pictures. Highly recommended.”

He made it fun and was ready for any photo ideas we had. We highly recommend booking with them!”

  • Yen T.

    “I had to book a last-minute photographer for my wedding because the photographer I booked became ill suddenly. Guess what? It was such a blessing in disguise! Leo is very professional and talented. I was very impressed with his technique and artistry. He made us feel comfortable, even though I was pretty shy in front of the camera. Leo is also very dedicated and communicates great while doing his job. I want to come back and use his services again. Love Leo and my wedding pics!!!”
