- Client Letters
I discovered my love for photography after moving to New York City from Boston in 2004. I am a former molecular biologist who has always loved art, and I took the opportunity to soak in as much art as possible during my time in New York City. I took evening classes in photography and spent many weekends in museums and galleries, and decided that I wanted to become a photographer. Read More...
I moved back to MA to attend the Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University, where I completed a professional photography program. As a student I worked for a wedding photographer and realized that I enjoyed the pace, excitement, emotion, and challenge of wedding photography. I am based out of Waltham, Massachusetts.

Jen & Matt
Married October 24th, 2009
"Leah was an amazing photographer for our October wedding. Her attention to detail and capturing the true essence of the day are just some of her many specialties. Leah was literally the first and last photographer we met with because...more " after one meeting we knew that Leah would document the day Matt and I wanted. It was her friendly, bubbly personality and talented artistry that won us over. I have had so many family and friends comment on how amazing she was and how incredible the photos came out. I have been to so many weddings where the photographer literally gets in the way. Leah just lets the day happen and captures what it’s really about. Of course we did formal shots too, but when I look at our pictures I’m in love with all the candid moments that truly represented our wedding. As the bride and groom it’s impossible to witness all the moments of the big day, but Leah did such an amazing job of capturing all that and more! We can’t thank her enough for being part of our wedding day. She was truly incredible and I will tell everyone I know about her. She has a gift and a talent and I am so happy that we found her!!!" show less

"I wish that Leah could photograph my entire life! The two of us, our friends, and our family cannot say enough amazing things about Leah. We were so lucky to have found her. From the first picture of our engagement shoot, we knew...more " we had found our match. Leah's pictures speak for themselves but something that you don't see on the website is the personality behind the camera. Leah is energetic, thoughtful, artistic, creative, kind, and incredibly professional. She handled complicated personal politics (a mainstay of almost any wedding) with ease and grace, managed to keep a large extended family on time, and made everyone feel comfortable. Her dedication and passion to her work is evident and it shows in her attention to detail and ability to capture remarkable moments. Leah really 'got us' and we have been recommending her to all of our friends. Now we just need to figure out another party big enough to have her come back and hang with us." show less
Adena & Ben
Married August 29th, 2009
"How do you know that you chose an outstanding photographer? 1) The pictures are beautiful, dreamy, vibrant, exciting, whimsical and romantic. 2) You love the photos so much you agonize about which should be in the photo-album...so...more " you buy a digital photo frame. 3) Everyone wants to know who photographed your wedding. I am Leah LaRiccia's biggest cheerleader. I love my wedding photos! Ben and I had an alternative wedding at a county fair along with bumper cars, ferris wheel, hot dog stands and a haunted house. We wanted our photos to reflect our personalities, and Leah captured our essence on film. She preserved our wacky, carefree, fun-loving style forever. She is a skilled artist, and I am lucky to have her commemorate my wedding. Furthermore, Leah's flexibility and compassion are unmatchable. We realized that our wedding would be threatened by an incoming storm (the remnants of Hurricane Danny) two days before the event. I was devastated. Leah offered to shoot us at the fair the day before the wedding, and she saved the day, literally. The next day, my wedding day, it poured and outside photos were impossible. I can't thank her enough. Our pre-wedding photo shoot made up for every drop of rain. " show less

"My husband and I had Leah photograph our wedding this past summer. I had seen the photos she took for our friends wedding, and I knew she was the perfect fit for us!

I absolutely love our photos and I just couldnt imagine having any other photographer!" show less

"We were so lucky to find Leah! From the moment we contacted her she was incredibly responsive and proactive without being the least bit pushy. She had great ideas and found a way to incorporate (and improve upon) all of our ideas...more " She took all the worry and hassle out of planning the pics. Most importantly, we have hundreds of truly fabulous photos that we will treasure for years. We've received dozens of "wow!" comments on the quality and creativity of the photography. We couldn't be happier. " show less
Caitlin & Sam
Married July 12th, 2008
"Leah was truly amazing! She captured every moment in perfect detail. Looking through my wedding photographs is literally like reliving the day from beginning to end. It is incredible how she captured exactly what I was feeling and...more " seeing in a still photograph. I have numerous prints from the wedding all over my house and visitors constantly admire and compliment her work. I am convinced no one could have done them any better. I definitely plan to use her as my photographer to capture my other special life moments. She is a true professional and I have and would again, recommend her to anyone. " show less
