Love is one of the most important parts of life, and having it captured means you’ll always have something to look back on. Whether it’s the quiet, in-between moments or the big, joy-filled ones, photos help you hold onto what matters most. Every couple has their own story, and I’m here to help you remember it just as it felt.

Hi, I am Leonelie

De La Cruz

Let's get to know each other

Moody portrait of woman in floral dress against dark background.

I’m a portrait and lifestyle photographer based in Central Pennsylvania, where my passion for photography began in high school (2014). I studied communications technology and later continued my education at FIT in New York City. Inspired by my mom’s habit of documenting everything, photography has always felt personal to me. In 2024, I decided to take it further, capturing meaningful moments and everyday stories wherever life takes me.
