Michael Leddy

My name is Mike Leddy. I’m a Los Angeles-based photographer specializing in portrait, product, and commercial photography. With over a decade of experience running my own photography business, I've honed my craft while independently managing all aspects of operations. Through the experience, I’ve learned the importance of adaptability and the crucial role it plays in the ever-evolving landscapes of the entertainment and beauty industries.

My approach is rooted in meticulous care and an unwavering commitment to bringing my subject’s personality to life through imagery. At the core of my philosophy lies the belief that effective photography goes beyond mere visual representation; it's about conveying the value and identity of my subject through personalized visual storytelling. I strive to tell a compelling story through images, emphasizing both the beauty and identity of my subject.

My journey as a photographer has been marked by constant growth and learning. Whether it be by studying the complex science of light manipulation or developing a mastery of Adobe Creative Suite, I have worked tirelessly to incorporate a vast variety of tools into my craft. After thirteen years in this field, I am able to intuitively apply my expertise and provide confident direction and execution.

I am an experienced Los Angeles-based photographer specializing in portrait, product, and lifestyle photography. I have spent more than a decade managing my own photography photography business, showcasing a mastery in both Adobe Creative Suite and advanced lighting techniques. The majority of my professional experience is through paid test shoots for modeling agencies, product photography for beauty & fashion companies, and lifestyle/fashion photography for social media influencers. My professional experience developed through a balance of crafting artificial lighting setups in studio environments and leveraging natural light in outdoor environments.
