More About Leyla
I am most inspired by photos that exude emotion. Photos that take you back to a moment in time. Reflecting the chaos and love of those perfectly imperfect days. Pausing for long breaths as the world hustles on by. I strive for our photos to celebrate the wild moments that were felt wild under the sunkissed skies. Every story is uniquely beautiful and deserves to be remembered and honored, for one day it will all be just a faint wonderful memory.
I'm Leyla and you can find me happiest watching movies with my kids or dancing naked in a field! I am a passionate Latina and there’s no Cumbia that can keep these shoulders down! I am the biggest dork around and have zero fear of showing it during a session or event. I am here to be raw and real and will unapologetically always tell you my views. I have fallen in love with Santa Cruz, but will always travel the world for a rocking good time!

I am a carefree Chica, popping jokes and laughing along the way.
Making sure our photos express the rawness of life in this world.

“Leyla is a truly a delight to work with; her friendly nature and lightheartedness put everyone at ease and allow her to capture the most amazing and genuine moments! I’ve used her for family sessions, mommy and me, as well as professional portraits and have loved all of our photos. In addition to capturing the most amazing moments, Leyla goes above and beyond helping to guide you through the process of selecting images, offering suggestions on the best printing options, and assisting with how to display these in your home.
