David Leger

Portrait Photographer

“It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.”
— Paul Caponigro

 

 About me:

I began my photographic career as a successful wedding photographer and award-winning bridal portrait photographer. Shooting in film, during that time, also gave me the discipline of how I approach photography. I have always been drawn towards portrait photography because it requires me to capture other people’s best selves. I am interested in creating portraits that my clients are completely satisfied with, as well as executing my own unique and creative ideas.

I strive to make sure my clients feel good about themselves while taking their portraits. I give lots of tips through the process, as well as maintain a supportive atmosphere during the session for the perfect shot. We’ll take lots of photos to make sure we capture the best moments, experimenting with different types of angles, compositions, and lighting. Even though potentially hundreds of photos will be taken during a session, I will narrow down the selection to only the best images, and professionally edit the curated images to create heart-warming memories and display-worthy wall art, albums, and books.

Dave was amazing to work with during our family portrait setting. He was kind, very professional , and he could actually get my husband to smile. He took his time to get the photo just right. We would highly recommend Dave and Prairie Ridge Photography for your family photos.

Dave took our family pictures. He did a great job despite the challenges we presented. Broken foot was in a boot , newborn baby, tired kids and tight time frame. We would recommend him every time.

We had Dave take senior photos for my daughter. He was very accommodating, mindful of what a high school kid would like and was very patient. He does great job explaining different poses and lighting.
