Sydnie Leah Photography

made us feel comfortable from the engagement session to the wedding day. I cannot thank her enough for capturing the little moments like she did. I feel truly blessed that I get to look at these pictures for the rest of my life with so much love and fondness. If you are looking for an amazing photographer that will capture your own magic look no further thank Sydnie Leah Photography. You will never regret investing in something that you will cherish for a lifetime.

y for months to schedule an engagement shoot, but she also gave us a day's notice for those. We waited for 8 months for those because she FORGOT to send them to us. Then sent them to the WRONG people! Closer to the wedding she scheduled a time to talk on the phone about wedding details she FORGOT to call me. MULTIPLE times! Then when she finally called 2 HOURS later then she said, she had the date wrong then. I corrected her. Day of my wedding she did not show up. My bridesmaids called her and texted her and didn't hear from her until the last couple hours of my wedding saying she would send her assistant but by then there was no way sunset photos could have been taken and most guests had left. So we declined her assistant. She did not even reach to me to apologize. I called her and she ignored me. I texted her and I saw her read receipts said read but she didn't respond for 30 minutes and after I said I am getting a lawyer involved, that is when she responded. All she had to say was sorry for the miscommunication. This is absolute bad business, and she really should not be trusted to do wedding photos. All my emails to her say my wedding date! There is no miscommunication. We paid a deposit and had a contract! All brides beware this may happen to you and all you will get is I'm sorry... Idk why anyone would pay her fees

unicate with us. We are so happy we hired her and you will be too! The emotion she is able to capture in the photos is incredible!

ith them. However, the last contact I had with Sydnie, last October, she said she still had our dancing photos and was finishing editing them. Since then, I've heard nothing and haven't gotten any photos of our first dance, father daughter, or mother son dance. Those were really important to me and I would like to include them in my wedding album. I gave her several months, since I knew she was having a baby, them covid hit. But since June I've reached out in multiple ways and haven't heard anything back from her. I'm really disappointed and feel like this is unprofessional at this point to just ignore my texts, emails, and Facebook messages. Edit: I just rechecked my album and finally found a separate folder named more dancing. Not able to tell when they were added, but it would have been helpful for her to have communicated that they were there. Anyway, glad to finally have them!

d posted on Facebook looking for photographers In our area and Sydnie replied. When I saw her work I was instantly in love! I loved the vintage look in her photos. Not only is she an incredible photographer she was great to work with. She was very prompt in replying to any questions I had leading up to the big day. And very helpful in guiding us when taking photos. I have only seen a handful of our wedding pictures. But I am absolutely in LOVE with the ones I have seen. I am so happy we found Sydnie!

finitely will hire her again for future shoots.

with and makes you feel comfortable. She also did our engagement photos and I just couldn’t have asked for anything better between the engagement and wedding photos!

lowing day we received several gorgeous photos! She not only did a fabulous job, but she was so pleasant to work with. Calm, collected and directed us to pose the correct way to create phenomenal photos, even the dogs!A truly talented, passionate and dedicated artist. So happy we found Sydnie, absolutely recommending her and using her again.

with a meet and greet in the cutest cafe in Sonoma, that led to hours of talking. We knew right away, we wanted Sydnie. We scheduled our engagement shoot for middle of November 2018, but with the fires in Paradise, CA, sydnie suggested changing dates due to the fact that she wanted our pictures to be perfect, And we couldn't agree more. When it came time to take the engagement photos, Sydnie made them feel so easy. So comfortable. We were able to enjoy ourselves and be ourselves. We even had our puppy tag along with our pictures. Sydnie even went as far to ask us our music preferences so she could play while we took pictures. Fast forward nine months later to our wedding, and Sydnie did not disappoint. She took into consideration everything we wanted and put her talented spin to it. The pictures, the laughs, the tears, the enjoyment were undeniable. We still cannot stop looking at those pictures. honestly we didn't even know she was there, quietly snapping pictures as the ceremony and the reception went on. Sydnie helped made our day as special as it was, as we have no doubt she will do for you.

ssional, kind and INSANELY talented. We will never get over how perfectly she captured our wedding day and would choose her time and time again!!!

s I had in mind. Sydnie was at the TOP of my list. I gave myself one item to splurge on and it was photography. This was a surprising decision for most that know me because I/we are not a huge fan of being photographed. I had discovered Sydnie through a college friend who had recently taken absolutely amazing engagement pictures. They captured natural beauty, effortless love, and romantic color. I realized in this moment I had to have her :). I contacted Sydnie immediately and she was prompt on her return email response and worked with me on engagement pictures. After several conversations trying to convince my now husband to partake in engagement pictures, we were both thrilled with the result and he even thanked me later. She made it so comfortable and it made our wedding day that much better. The wedding day...Sydnie agreed to make the drive from California to Oregon to capture our day and we are so thankful. Not only did she capture the huge moments but its also all of the little ones that make a wedding. The pictures of me dancing with my new step daughter, the friends that showed up to help us get ready/photo bomb our pictures, the aunts and uncles we haven't seen in years, the tears (mostly myself) that start flowing when your best friend has "the voice of an angle" (those of have watched step brothers will get that reference) while signing James Arthur "Say You Won't Let Go", the hug in the background of a grandfather hugging his grandson saying that he wishes grandma could have seen this. Those are the moments that are too easily forgotten but Sydnie and her lovely assistant captured them beautifully. These moments are priceless. With that being said, did I mention how much I ABSOLUTELY LOVED our bride and groom pictures! I will forever have them plastered all of our walls. When we have more kids I will show them and remind them how good looking and in love their parents are. Sydnie was professional and graceful throughout our experience and we could not ask for a better photographer to capture our unforgettable day!

le but would also give me the wedding photos of my dreams. Sydnie actually reached out to me after I had posted an inquiry on Facebook & I am so glad she did. She was above and beyond what I could have envisioned. She’s very professional, sweet, and answered any questions I had about the day of. Not only was she easy to work with but the quality of her photos is outstanding. She captured all of the special moments and even got the small details I never would have thought to ask for a picture of. I would highly recommend her to EVERYONE!

made it so easy and comfortable to be in front of the camera. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect person to capture our wedding day. We are absolutely obsessed with how our pictures came out. I can’t wait for her to do our family photo shoots in the future!

for an excellent photograph. Beyond the high quality of her art, she was a joy to work with. My husband wasn't thrilled to be taking lots of photos at first, but Sydnie made it comfortable and an enjoyable experience for both of us! We are sincerely in LOVE with our photos from our engagement session AND our wedding. We highly recommend her!!!

session which made our day incredibly easy and fun....exactly what we wanted! I was hoping for a few pretty pictures but with Sydnie’s direction and eye for detail we have so many incredible photos!!! I highly recommend Sydnie, she is a joy to work with and we are truly grateful to her for capturing the happiest day of our lives!

graphy and scenery and we would absolutely reccomend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

photos.

had imaged it feeling like. When we did our engagements, I knew we had picked the right photographer, she asked about ourselves and how we met and genuinely cared about our wedding as much we did! I was afraid my now husband would hate taking pictures but he ended up taking me to dinner after our engagements because we had so much fun and it was actually such a good memory we will always have of that day! It was also nice to chat with her throughout the months before the big day because she knows how weddings go and what things need to be talked about! All I can say is she made things so easy and we LOVE our pictures that she sent us! We ended up printing a ton of images and now they are all in our home, I tell all my friends about Sydnie and think everyone should use her! She truly cares and it shows!

sband and I to feel comfortable. She is so sweet and easy going it made things very easy. Just looking at her photos you can tell how passionate she is. I HIGHLY recommend Sydnie!!! She was such a pleasure to work with and I can’t wait to use her for future photo sessions!

mount of ideas and brought our memories to life with her imagination. It was the perfect experience and we now have the perfect photos to help make our memories last a lifetime. Thank you Sydnie!

ear. She worked with my budget when her packages had a little more than I needed and made it a breeze to work with her. My wedding was last Sunday and it was also the first time Sydnie and I met in person. She made me and my (now) husband feel so comfortable and it was so much fun taking pictures with her. She made sure every shot was as perfect as she could get it. She just sent a few sneak peak images and I am already in awe. I can't wait to see the rest after I saw how beautiful the first batch was. I would absolutely recommend Sydnie to any bride who wants to feel taken care of on her wedding day :)

found her through our venues Instagram page and had checked out her page and seen what amazing photos she took as well as the reviews on her work! I email her for a quote and when she sent me her pricing I was so bummbed as she was way out of my price range..but after a few emails she asked what my budget was and because it was such last min as well as her not having any events booked on the day I neede her she was willing to charge me my asking price which was one Huge stress relief!! I would recommend her to anyone as well as use her again in the future!

or itself. To top it off she is super sweet and talks you through everything. I will definitely be using her again in the future and passing her name on to all of my friends and family! Honestly I’m kind of obsessed with her haha.

,which I have agreed because I really want her to be our photographer,after a few days of waiting for that contract,I emailed her asking for it.Me and my fiancé decided to ask for a refund because Sydnie does not reply in a timely manner.The contract was not clear as to what we would be expecting in terms of the service that she would be providing . The contract was not signed and after a week we emailed her that it was not working for us anymore.She refused to give us our money that we have to call the bank for a dispute. She is claiming that the contract was given to me on the same day( which I have the email to prove that), she also claimed that her email was hacked that is why she was not able to respond to us.But what a coincidence that when we emailed her that we wanted a refund after a few minutes she emailed me using a different email address saying her email was hacked. We can't imagine someone trying to keep the money while there were no service that was provided. She insisted that we still work together keeping her as our photographer. Even if it was written in a contract, it was not signed ,we did not receive any service from her and the contract was given to us after a few days after we gave the deposit. Communication with her was really bad. I hope that this review would help other future clients.

ready to the sparkler exit, she had us covered on plenty of amazing photos to let us relive every moment of this special day!!
