Me
who is leelee?

I go by the fabulous "LeeLee" to stand out from the sea ​of Ashleys. Armed with a degree in Digital Photography ​from the International Academy of Design Technology, I ​now rock my own Nail Salon “Get Stoned Gem Nails” as ​the boss lady in charge.


My photography escapades have led me to the world of ​event photo booths in North Western Ontario. I thrive in ​Fashion Photography, Special Events, and capturing ​the rhythm of Music.


While I can snap stunning Wedding moments and more, ​time is my only nemesis in this photo-packed adventure!

behind the lens

As an Ojibwe kwe from Treaty 3 Territory, creativity and storytelling are deeply rooted in who I am. Music, movement, and connection inspire the way I work behind the camera, allowing me to capture moments with heart and intention.


I love collaborating with clients who have big ideas, unique visions, or something a little outside the box. If you’ve got an idea — let’s bring it to life and create something meaningful together.
