It all began with an idea.

Hi friends!! I’m Celeste Leija! A life-loving gal just looking to capture all your special moments on camera! I’m so happy and honored we connected!

I feel most alive when I’m surrounded by family and friends, soaking in each moment this crazy life has to offer.

I often get asked how my photography journey began.. maybe a little cliche but it started sophomore year of high school with an old camera laying around the house and some girlfriends coming over in desperate need of the cutest and newest Facebook profile pic! I’d say that’s when my love for the art truly began. From living room shoots with sheets pinned to the walls as backdrops I never imagined I’d be where I’m at now. My business began to grow little by little each year, supported by the people who believed in me and encouraged me to follow my dream. I couldn’t be more thankful that I get to say capturing priceless memories for people is now my full-time job!

I believe that authenticity is the key to a great session and I do my best to bring out raw moments any chance I get.

I am so dang excited to help make your session your new favorite story to tell!
