Leslee Layton Films

and embodies the true spirit of what all wedding professionals aspire to be. You will gain a dear friend in Leslee and cherish your video for the rest of your life. Here’s the long version of why you should hire Leslee. She may be able to do for you exactly what she did for me - capture moments that I will never be able to put a price on. Leslee captured all that became of my wedding. This included one of the very last moments I had with my mom. We got engaged in June of 2018 and began wedding planning immediately because my mom was dying from an aggressive brain cancer and I knew she just had to be there so we whipped up a wedding in four months. I had met Leslee at a workshop for OKC wedding vendors when I was in the industry but hadn’t kept in touch aside from the occasional Instagram like. I don’t believe it was anything other than God that put Leslee and I together at that event way back then. Fast forward probably five-ish years to August of 2018 and I’m scrolling through IG while in the ER with my mom. I see a post from Leslee and I feel what could have only been a divine power encourage me to message her and explain what I think my wedding would look like and see if she thought she could help me document it since I knew my time with my mom in this life was coming to an end. She immediately jumped into action and formed a plan that would be just perfect for us. We never got to that plan. The week of our wedding, my mom was clearly in her last days and we knew there was no way she would be at the wedding we’d planned together. We put together a wedding in the chapel of the hospital the day before we were supposed to have our actual wedding. I honestly don’t even remember calling Leslee to tell her about the hospital wedding. I just know she was there and in the midst of my tears thinking this can’t be happening, Leslee was there to make me laugh when she told me where she needed to hide the battery pack for the microphone. She was the calm I needed in that moment and was able to be both a friend and creative professional when I couldn’t even process what was happening. I still cry just thinking about how blessed we were to have her in that moment. Thanks to Leslee, I have a video of the very last time I got to talk to my mom. We ended up having our actual wedding but left early to go say goodbye to our mom. A couple of weeks after the wedding/funeral, Leslee invited us over to do an interview to fill in some of the pieces of our story. The final video really can speak for itself. Leslee is such a gem and I cherish the treasure she gave us in that final video. Our wedding really seemed more like a nightmare when we were living it and I had no idea how she was even going to make this a decent film. I really would have been happy with the raw footage (which we also got) that we would watch all piled together like the rest of all of our home videos. Leslee was able to cut to the truth of the story which actually is so beautiful and a side to our story that I never even knew existed. Leslee’s video gave me some real peace about the entire experience and I will never be able to thank her enough for that. Leslee, thank you for all you’ve done for not only me and Keegan but our families too. We are eternally grateful.

ing and cinematic style. The tone (both color-wise and emotion) was exactly what I was looking for in a videographer. The day after I got engaged, I *immediately* called Leslee of Leslee Layton Films, and asked her what her availability was for October 2018...because I knew, above all the other planning details, that I wanted LLF to film our wedding story. Leslee was incredibly warm, friendly, and a consummate professional through and through. She took the time to get to know us and our story and made us feel so at ease. She seamlessly worked with our photographer and made the entire experience feel effortless. Her team was like a team of video ninjas -- while watching our videos, there were many moments captured that my husband and I didn't even realize they had gotten the shots! The final product was more than we even imagined. From the highlight to the ceremony to the reception, we were thrilled with the meaningful moments that were so beautifully captured. But not only was the film gorgeous, but Leslee's gift of skillful storytelling also shines through. Perhaps not many people pick their wedding date around their videographer's schedule, but it was super important to me and my husband to have our day memorialized not only with photos but with a film that could let us hear the voices, relive the moments, and remember the emotions in vivid, moving detail. It's a cinematic heirloom that we will one day show our kids and our kids' kids...and we are so incredibly grateful to have had Leslee and her team craft such a beautiful, beautiful film for us. We wholeheartedly recommend Leslee Layton Films; she is absolutely the best.

hing our videos after our wedding. We got them back in a timely manner, but you can tell she did NOT rush to edit or cut corners to put it together. Thank you, Leslee for your AMAZING work and for giving Isaac and I videos we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

st felt calm and at ease. She is the sweetest human being ever and just having her around on our day was such a gentle calming presence. Her work is absolutely amazing and I’m still pinching myself that she’s doing a video of our wedding. I would recommend her to anyone who is thinking of getting a videographer. Talk to her once and you’ll be sold!
