LeAnne Johansen Photography bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

In order to tell you why I love doing what I do, I have to make a confession. I have a horrible memory. I never know if I actually remember events or if I just remember them because I have seen photographs of them. Fortunately, I have always carried a camera everywhere, taking pictures of everything (much to the annoyance of many of my friends and family) so I can look back at the photographs and always remember!

Documenting every moment is the root of my style. I want you to be able to remember everything & everyone as they are at that time in their life.  Even if it means a baby is constantly making spit bubbles, or holds his fingers in his mouth, it isn't an imperfection, it is a memory of that time in their life. If a five year old is as crazy as can be, let's not force him to sit up straight and tilt his head to the camera, let's remember who he is.

I love working inside the studio and with nature as the backdrop. I love new babies, kids of all ages, seniors, families & weddings. I take pride in keeping my work modern and fresh by going to photography workshops and seminars throughout the year.

I look forward to meeting you and creating photographs so you are able to always remember the special moments in your life.

SIMPLY ADORABLE

It’s always great to see this little guy because I get to chit chat with one of my classmates from High School – it’s always great to see you guys!!

I  had such a hard time narrowing down this little guy’s images for the family to look at because he is just SO CUTE!!  He is 6 months old now and is at the phase where he always wants his hands in his mouth.  Most parents want to take the hands out of their mouths right away – I LOVE the little hands in the mouth & want to be sure to capture this time in their lives, but also love to get their great smiles too – he gave us a little of both!

We had so much fun with the bubbles and this little guy – he was just amazed by them!  He was done with us by the end though (notice the bottom left image in this set!)
