About Me
Hi, I’m Leah Wellman, a wedding photographer with a passion for telling real love stories through timeless, authentic imagery.
For me, photography isn’t just about clicking a button—it’s about capturing the in-between moments: the nervous laugh before the ceremony, the tearful glance during vows, the wild joy on the dance floor. These are the moments that tell your story, and I’m honored every time I’m invited to preserve them.
Based in Chicago, I’ve been photographing weddings for 4 years, blending candid photojournalism with an editorial eye. Whether it’s an intimate elopement in the mountains or a big city celebration, my approach is calm, unobtrusive, and completely centered around making you feel comfortable on your big day!
