I have known Leslie for a few years now and this was actually the second time I’ve had the pleasure of photographing her. Leslie is such a strong and inspirational friend and it is always a pleasure to spend time with her. So down to earth, warm and friendly and an awesome belly dancer! She lives in a loft apartment down town that has an amazing open floor plan and clean lines, yet feels like home as soon as you walk in. The balcony has the best views and I think it really compliments her personality. I had a great time on this shoot, just photographing her in her own domain, relaxed and simple. She was up for anything and had the most fun wardrobe to look through and piece together practical but sexy outfits!
Leslie, thank you for welcoming me into your home and letting me photograph you. You are so stunning and I think these photos really showcase that. 
My great friend Sterling assisted me on this shoot and afterward, Leslie was sweet enough to take us out to brunch at the amazing Sweet Potatoes, all while donning this awesome outfit!
This photo is so comforting to me. It just makes me sigh a sigh of happiness and smile.
Leslie, you are BEAUTIFUL!
