ABOUT KAElA LEONE

I’m so thrilled you’re here! I am an art director and digital + film photographer from Toronto. Thoughtful details, subtle glances, the way you know it’s you two against the world, and grandparents! babies! + dogs! are a few of my favourite things to observe.

I deeply value genuine connections – it’s at the root of it all. Community is everything, and I feel so honoured when I am invited into yours!

I lead with photojournalism in mind to capture the must-haves that naturally unfold and all of the magical moments that surface in-between. With an eye for editorial compositions, I work with a variety of cameras, both digital and film, to capture your day. My goal is to ensure you are as present as possible with your sweetheart and loved ones, while documenting beautiful candid moments and timeless heirloom portraits for you to look back on for decades to come.

My work has been published globally in Vogue magazine as well as in notable publications such as The Anti-Bride and 100 Layer Cake. I’m humbled to have been named one of the Top 15 Wedding Photographers in Canada by The Wed.

When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me singing covers of soul classics, telling stories in a big Italian way (gestures and all), shooting rolls of personal film, and spending time with my wife and our dogs.
