The best! Kind, professional, and takes beautiful photos!
Leslie and her husband had such a calming and professional presence, and everything felt so smooth and easy with them behind the camera. She is so kind and has the best kind of pos...
itive energy that you would want on your wedding day! The photos turned out amazing and they were just what we wanted. We cannot recommend Leslie Margarita enough!
My wife and I are so happy we hired Leslie for our wedding. She is so good at what she does!
For our engagement photoshoot, she really got to know us. She understood our style and...
preferences. And she was able to capture our vision so well. She is really thoughtful in her posing and framing of pictures. For every picture, she took into account the setting, the lighting, and our personalities to pose us.
For our wedding, she and her husband were really great. They captured a ton of pictures! We had 300 guests, and they were able to capture the emotions and celebrations for all them. We couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out and how great our experience was with them!
Leslie photographed all our events from our engagement announcement, my bridal portraits, and our wedding day and we couldn't be happier with her work! She is an absolute artist! S...
he is so kind and manages to make you feel confident in every photo/angle! She is also flexible and quick to respond. I couldn't believe how quick she finished our beautiful photos! I would be honored to have her photograph any of our family's milestones!
Leslie perfectly captured our wedding! She was so professional, kind and made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. The photos turned out perfect!
Highly recommend...

Absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Leslie for our wedding! From the initial consultation to the final delivery of our stunning photos, every step was hand...
led with professionalism and care. Did I mention her turn around time is exceptional? We received all photos (engagement, bridals, and day-of) less than a week after each event. On top of this, Leslie has a keen eye for capturing the most beautiful moments, and her creativity truly shines through in her work. Our wedding day was made even more special thanks to her talent behind the lens. We couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking for top-notch photography services. We will cherish our photos from Leslie for years to come- Five stars all the way!
If you are looking to hire a wedding photographer, then you can stop looking because you need to hire Leslie. I do not think we could have picked anyone better to capture our weddi...
ng day. Before the wedding, Leslie took the time to get to know me/ my now husband and how I envisioned my wedding photos to look. She was professional and on time to every meeting/ event.
On the day of the wedding, she showed up early, kept us on schedule, and even stayed late to make sure she captured the grand exit.
Her and her husband are a POWER COUPLE! They worked flawlessly together and helped capture everything going on.
Leslie really helped make the day amazing and I would hire her again in the future for any other event!
If you are considering booking Leslie for your wedding… DO IT! Leslie and her husband photographed my April 2023 wedding, and they were fantastic! We could not have asked for bette...
r photographers. My husband and I are not naturals in front of the camera and had never taken professional photos before getting engaged. Leslie made us feel 100% comfortable, special, and beautiful on our big day and during the engagement photoshoot. Our wedding gallery is incredible - Leslie captured such a variety of photos and so many special moments throughout our big day. Our family and friends are thrilled with the photos as well! Also, throughout the planning process, whenever we told our other vendors that Leslie was our photographer, we received the same reaction, “She is amazing and so fun to work with!” Her strong reputation in the industry is well-deserved and truly speaks for itself.
Leslie did our engagement and wedding photos which were AMAZING! First, Leslie was so easy to work with. From our initial conversations and proposal to the big day, she was prompt,...
easygoing, and made us comfortable. Secondly, her aesthetic is timeless, and she clearly has an artistic eye. She made sure we got the shots we wanted plus many more. We wholeheartedly recommend Leslie!
We couldn't be happier that we chose Leslie as our videographer for our wedding! Both her and David are so easy and fun to work with. They truly love what they do and you can reall...
y see that on wedding day and in the video! They captured all of our favorite moments from our wedding day and made a beautiful video. It was everything we wanted and we can't recommend them enough!!
Leslie is so easy to work with and her work is AMAZING! We had no issues or complaints! Best photographer ever!
Leslie and David perfectly captured our wedding day! We love how she captured the vibe of our venues. From the start of our highlight video, we are immediately transported back t...
o our big day.
Leslie is very responsive and kind leading up to the wedding, which is so important in any wedding vendor.
And finally, my wife and I are very glad we had both photography and videography. After receiving our photos and videos, we can't imagine having one without the other. And it was actually fun to have professionals shooting video on the big day! A little different than snapping a bunch of photos!
leslie does AMAZING work and is very professional! she captured my husband and i beautifully and we got our photos back so fast!! we loved having leslie photograph our wedding, she...
was super fun to work with and helped the day move along smoothly! I would highly recommend her🤩🤩

a wonderful, high quality video to remember the best day of our lives. We highly recommend Leslie Margarita Films 😊
David & Leslie are so personable and kind! We loved working with them and the resulting video of our wedding was so beautiful and such an incredible memory to cherish! They deliver...
ed a “highlight” video of our wedding day, which was about 5 minutes in length and covered parts of the whole day. We also received a “full length” video which includes our full ceremony, all speeches, first dances, bouquet/garter throw. Would highly recommend them for your wedding video!
Oh. My. Goodness. I have no words for how amazing Leslie was for my wedding. I found her, thankfully, as soon as I booked my venue and she was immediately in constant communication...
with me throughout the year leading up to the day. She did our engagement photos, my bridals, and day-of. Every single photo was beyond beautiful. Leslie and her husband helped manage the day and captured every moment we wanted and more. I truly would consider Leslie a sweet friend now and would recommend her to anyone who asks!
Leslie was AMAZING. I was a covid bride so this was our post-covid wedding. This also meant I had 3 years to look for a photographer, and I am so happy I ended up using Leslie. Her...
husband was also so funny and great to work with. They were truly the best team! They were prompt, flexible (because nothing ever goes as planned on wedding day), helped us with our poses, and overall, easy to work with. She captured the sweetest moments for us with our little boy at our wedding and had the fastest turn around for our gallery!
Leslie was fantastic to work with! She was incredibly kind and made everyone feel comfortable, relaxed, and beautiful. She was very easygoing but with attention to detail. A great ...
combination to make wedding photos not-so-stressful! She listened to our request for candids and captured some beautiful moments. The final photos we got blew us away and will be treasured forever!
Leslie and her team are the absolute best. So personable, sweet, and incredible with her craft. You'll LOVE watching and rewatching your wedding memories every year when you hire t...
hem! As a photographer, I love working with Leslie Margarita as the videographer for couples' days. It's clear she is there for the bride and groom, to serve them and to make their day the absolute best it can be. She rocks. Look no further! You've found your videographer!!!
I was on the fence for hiring a videographer up until ONE month before my wedding on 10/23/2021. I spent hours and hours for months looking through portfolios for a videographer al...
l over Texas and did not find anyone who really caught my eye. I was already over budget for my wedding, so I wanted to be 200% sure in getting a video that I would love. Randomly, one night I stumbled across Leslie on instagram and fell IN LOVE! I felt like I was watching a wedding movie. I watched every single one of her wedding highlights on her website. By some miracle she was available our date, and we secured her immediately.
She was always available via text/email and responded quickly up until the wedding. On the wedding day, Leslie and her husband were sooooo sweet. They make you feel comfortable. Eddie and I are definitely camera shy, but we weren't nervous around Leslie. She was the perfect person in hyping you up constantly making you feel beautiful and on point! Don't worry about not knowing what to do, she's great at guiding you and giving you direction.
We got our wedding video back in 3 months (amazing!!!). I was on vacation in a parking lot outside of a coffee shop watching and bawling my eyes out. The way everything was captured and edited is absolutely beautiful. When you book Leslie, she asks whats the most important things you want captured and I can say Leslie fulfilled every single one of my top things. If you are on the fence of getting a videographer, please reach out to Leslie. She was worth every penny. There is something about video that photos can't capture.
Leslie and her husband David are amazing! They're both such a pleasure to work with and were so accommodating of getting all of the photos that I wanted. The photos are absolutely ...
beautiful! The turn around time to get them back was just a few weeks. 100% recommended her to everyone!
Where do I even begin.... AMAZING! I am so grateful and fortunate that I found Leslie. I knew that I wanted someone who would shoot wedding photos like they were light & romantic m...
oments, like in a fairytale! Her style is just perfect - it's not overdone (intense lighting, a lot of editing, etc), but also not underdone (she perfectly brought out colors, enhanced raw moments, etc.).
I have worked with many countless photographers, and Leslie & her husband David (an amazing duo, might I add) just are amazing people to shoot with. They are so kind, professional, make you feel beautiful and in giddy love shooting with your spouse, and honestly just the most fun!!
Leslie is very attentive and high-spirited in her work! She always loved being creative with things from my Pinterest boards and working with inspiration. We did engagement photos, bridal portraits, and our wedding photos with them and none of them disappointed. Not only that, but she is a WIZARD with how well and quickly she has given us our photos galleries! Extremely impressive, and yet you can still tell the attention and intension she had with each and every photo. Amazing. I could go on, but I know no-one will read reviews forever, haha. Leslie, you are astounding!
Where do I start? Leslie is a true professional who owns her craft. Apart from her amazing, clean, classic, absolutely stunning work of art, the thing that makes her shine is how s...
he treats her clients. Working with her was a dream. My husband and I are super awkward when it comes to taking pictures, but Leslie made the experience fun for us and managed to pull off the most amazing photos. We were blown away. It's really the little things that make all the difference and from the day we reached out to Leslie, she has been prompt and professional in all her communication. Which wedding vendor sends you a thank you card and a little gift? Very sweet and thoughtful gesture. I am typically a cheapie, but the moment I came across her website I was hooked. I knew I wanted clean, classic, light and airy photos and that's what I saw. I knew the investment would be worth it and boy did she DELIVER. My advice to fellow cheapies out there, don't be discouraged by the prices. If you value HIGH QUALITY wedding photos that you'll want to look at 50 years from now and you can afford it, make the investment and go with a professional like Leslie. You will not regret it.
Everytime I look at our photos, I am blown away and simply grateful at how beautiful they are. And I will always have these pictures to remember how amazing and memorable our day was. ❤❤❤
Thank you Leslie and David!
Leslie was a joy to work with, we initially hired her mid covid and had an initial video meeting. She was kind and engaged and answered all our questions. After looking through her...
and many other photography portfolios it was no question we would choose her. She by far had more amazing pictures from real weddings to show not just stylized shoots. She did our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures. Everyone and I mean everyone who has looked through our photos has complemented how many amazing photos we have. Overall I would recommend, she is reasonably priced, professional and timely in delivering photos.
Leslie and her husband are incredibly delightful! They are our wedding videographer. I believe video shooting and editing requires not only skill but most importantly incredible ta...
ste! I was expecting my final product to be a collection of raw pieces taken throughout the wedding. Leslie and her husband totally surprised me. The highlight was able to capture some of the most beautiful and special moments that allowed us to re-live our wedding day! My husband cried after seeing it. Yes, It was that beautiful! He also said:” the filmography was spectacular; the music and the effects were amazing!” Haha! Well done Leslie! Thank you for working hard for us!
There are absolutely no words that amount to how amazing it was to work with Leslie and David. They are such kind and sweet people and made me feel so comfortable being filmed on m...
y wedding day! The video they created was absolutely PERFECT - I've watch it over and over and still cry every single time! it truly is something that I will cherish forever from the bottom of my heart. I can't thank you both enough for all you did on our special day, and now I get to relive it through your beautiful work. You are both amazing people and I'm forever grateful to have had the opportunity to be one of your clients.
Leslie is the most wonderful photographer! All of her photos are so beautiful I could cry! She is a joy to work with, knew exactly what I was wanting and went above and beyond. ...
All the guys loved working with her husband too! YOU HAVE TO BOOK HER! I wish I would have booked her team for videography too because everything her entire team touches is beautiful!
To say Leslie and David did an amazing job on our wedding video would be a complete under statement! I can’t express how overly impressed I was with our wedding highlight video. Th...
e day I received it I watched it no joke almost 20 times. I even asked my husband how we could have the video play at our house on repeat 😂 We had so many family and friends reach out about how much they loved the video that brought them to tears and also reminded us all how much fun the day was. I recommend also getting the documentary film to relive the full day as well. Leslie and David were also an absolute dream to work with the entire process. I highly highly recommend them as videographers. Trusting them was the best decision we made for the entire wedding!!
Wow, David and Leslie are the absolute BEST!!! My wife and I were married in November 2020 and we cannot say how much we LOVED David and Leslie! They were SO EASY to work with duri...
ng the planning stage of the wedding. They were very accommodating and replied promptly/quickly to every email that we sent them. My wife spent MANY, MANY HOURS researching different videographers for our wedding ( I know because she would show me every video of other videographers that she thought could be a possible candidate for our wedding...haha). Once my wife came across David and Leslie's work, the search was immediately over. Case closed. We had finally found our videographer for our wedding! David and Leslie are super talented and gifted. They are blessed with amazing videography skills. My wife and I love the fact that their videos present a wonderful story that is truly captivating. If I could, I would give them an Oscar/Academy Award for "Videographers of the Year"!!! On the day of the wedding, they were SUPER FRIENDLY and very professional throughout the day. My wife told me that Leslie was the best and she was very easy to work with. My wife really appreciated that, on a stressful day with so much going on, that Leslie was extremely kind/sweet and accommodating to everything that my wife needed. I can truly say the same thing about David (as he was working with me and the groomsmen). It was so easy to talk to David. I found myself talking to David as if I had known him all my life. They both were "on-point" the whole day. We never had to worry about them on the day of the wedding because they worked with excellence! When we got the finished video of the wedding, my wife and I were BLOWN AWAY. We could not stop watching it and had it on repeat!...haha. I wish I could give them 100 out of 5 stars because that would be an accurate rating of this fabulous team! My wife and I give Leslie Margarita Photography our HIGHEST recommendation.
We could not have asked for better videographers. Leslie & David were a dream to work with and honestly felt more like friends than a vendor! The process of working with them was e...
xtremely easy and so fun, it is a huge decision to find someone to capture your big day and Leslie & David were quick to answer all of our questions and work with all of our needs. Our video captured our special day perfectly and was more than we could have imagined. They truly captured the joy of the day and especially focused on all the special words surrounding our day. I cannot recommend them enough. We will be able to relive our special day over and over thanks to them and gained two new special friends in the process. Thank you Leslie & David for everything!
Leslie made this process effortless! I was super stressed since everything about our engagement and wedding was affected by the pandemic. We decided to elope on our original weddin...
g date and we had not even taken engagement pictures yet, so we decided to take them hours before our micro-elopement. Leslie was extremely responsive and professional in all communications even before we booked her. She was up front and very reasonably priced for what we needed. She even sent us a gift before our session!
During the session, she was so sweet and encouraging and supportive. I typically do not like to have pictures taken of myself but I felt extremely comfortable throughout the process, as did my husband. We had a blast and this was honestly the perfect activity to do before we tied the knot, it was actually relaxing and not a bit stressful as I had anticipated it could be.
The photos were available WEEKS before I expected them. I was pleasantly shocked at how quickly they were ready to view and download. They were gorgeous as Leslie Margarita was able to catch the light and the colors perfectly, and we have so many photos of us that I actually like looking at and get excited to show to friends and family.
I will absolutely call Leslie Margarita first if I ever need professional photos again. She was a dream to work with, would highly recommend!
Leslie and her husband are amazing individuals to work with. They did the videography for my wedding.
Not only did they deliver an amazing quality video, but they were so kind and...
uplifting during the whole process. Working with them is easy and I could not imagine having anyone else film my husband and my special day!
Leslie even provided me with an Instagram video of the wedding the day after the wedding! It was such a joy to wake up and watch the video with my new husband and relive the day all over again!
They are truly a blessing and also recommended us to many other vendors.
I encourage all brides to go with Leslie! Especially if you are getting married at The Farmhouse in Montgomery. Leslie is creative, kind, and produces a high quality product at a great price, and with no stress! They also gifted us two vow books and a candle. We used the vow books and loved them to pieces.
If you are still on the fence, look at their videos and I guarantee you will be sold.
