Hello from Leila & David.

We are L&L Style Photo!

Photographer Leila Jacue and art director David Leon founded L&L Style Photo with the purpose of creating artful images that reflect the emotions of great couples celebrating their day in unique ways. We believe in contemporary wedding photography created with a stylish and fun approach, capturing the excitement of the couple, showing love and connection and interactions with the guests, depicting real moments full of life.

OUR WORK AS WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS

- We have 7+ years of experience photographing weddings and elopements in NYC.

- We have a creative background and always look for an unique style that captures the essence of the city.

New York is a busy and constantly changing city. We have expert knowledge of the city and know the coolest locations and how to move around in the nicest, fastest and less stressful way.

- Leila & David always work as a team. Leila takes artistic, carefully planned shots while David makes sure there’s a great background, plans on locations and assists during the shoot (this can be really useful for taking editorial shots without having to worry about where to leave your coats or belongings in a busy Manhattan street).

- We are flexible and reasonable. We are open to finding another available time last minute, in case of terrible weather or if something unplanned happens.

- David is a NYC registered officiant! Our fully legal marriage ceremony service is included at no additional charge in all our elopement photography packages and you could pick a location different to the City Hall. David performs a short and sweet ceremony similar to the one at the City Hall but more personal and without the long lines :)

- We are based out in Manhattan, New York City and currently we are serving weddings and elopements in NYC 5 boroughs and beyond, plus destination weddings.

NYC ELOPEMENTS

We specialize in elopement photography and intimate weddings, which allows us to work with couples who are choosing to have a more intimate and personalized celebration.

Our 10 + years of wedding photography work in this city give us a strong understanding of the needs and preferences of couples planning an elopement. We are familiar with different elopement locations, offer flexible packages and services to meet each couple’s needs, and can adapt to various shooting environments and circumstances.

We capture moments with a sensitive, artistic photojournalistic style, quietly seeking genuine connections and creating images that reflect people’s natural and inner beauty. When needed, we provide direction to enhance the experience and create a cinematographic yet authentic feel in the images. Our goal is to represent your day through artful visual storytelling with an editorial style.

Many couples choose to have their wedding at Manhattan’s City Clerk because of its central location and vibrant feel. Additionally, getting married there is generally faster and less expensive than having a traditional wedding ceremony. If you decide to opt for a NY City Hall wedding we recommend you take a look at our GUIDE

Since this is a celebration for just the two of you and your dearest ones, we believe it’s essential to listen to your needs and we will collaborate with you to help make the best out of it. In case you feel limited for the number of guests allowed at the marriage bureau (4 guests) we have implemented the SWEET ELOPEMENT PACKAGE which includes the photography + officiant for the ceremony.

Lately, we have seen how couples want to do a small elopement-style ceremony followed by an intimate wedding celebration afterward. A small wedding reception has a personal charm that allows the couple to celebrate their special day with their closest friends and family in a more relaxed and meaningful setting. Unlike larger receptions, a small gathering provides the opportunity for the couple to focus on the quality of their interactions with each guest, creating lasting memories that are cherished by all.
