Hi, I'm Lesley

THOUGHTFULLY PRESERVING YOUR STORY.

ESTABLISHED IN 2009.

JESSICA + MICHAEL

Pure Aperture wholeheartedly captured our vision for the day. The photos are absolutely beautiful and we will cherish them for years to come. Lesley was super fun and energetic to work with! She made being in front of the camera feel so natural.

We could not have been happier with our decision...

MELANIE + MITCHELL

Sharing such a significant day with such a professional, and personable, photography team was incredible. These photos are now precious to me and with such well-curated and beautifully composed photos, we will be able to remember our special day for the rest of our lives.

Hundreds of perfect photos to remember our special day...
