“I had my Senior pictures done by Leah and was not disappointed. Just after I arrived for my session, Leah took a look at my clothes and personality and knew exactly what backgrounds and poses would be distinctly ME. And when it came to deciding which pictures to buy in the end, the choice was rough! Leah’s amazing, and I had a wonderful experience!”
Angela Riemersma
“I’m constantly amazed at how good Leah is at photography. My children LOVE her. She consistently gets great photos of all 3 of them. It can be hard to get natural-looking smiles from my 8 & 10 year old boys, but she does it each and every time. We all love her!”
Jeanne Spaletto
“We had a great experience working with Leah. She was great with our kids and made it easy. We love the portraits and get compliments on them all the time. We would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Leah!”
Kim Berebitsky
“Leah did a great job! I have never had more compliments on a family photo! Thanks so much! I would recommend her to everyone! She really made us feel comfortable and created just the look I wanted. A pleasure to work with.”
Jamie Gauker
“Our portrait session with Leah was a great experience. It went incredibly smooth which isn’t an easy task when you are trying to get a 15 month old and a 7 year old to cooperate with one another. She was great with each one of my children and captured them in a way that I would not have been able to do. The photographs that Leah took of them will be a treasure for our family for many years. I enjoy them every day. Thank you, Leah! You are a very talented individual!”
Jill Sutton
“The Seversons are amazing to work with and their work speaks for itself. I cannot imagine taking my kids anywhere else!”
Laura Buelt
“Leah does an awesome job photographing my son! She is patient and creative. The photos always look great and she knows just when to take the shot that will render a great memory in a photo. We are looking forward to more sessions with Leah and the wonderful atmosphere she and Todd create!”
Patti Dinka
“Even though Caroline had just begun with her “stranger anxiety phase” and wouldn’t crack a smile the whole session, Leah still managed to get awesome pictures. She was very patient with the girls and devoted a lot of time to our session. I love L.Severson Portrait Art and I don’t take my kids anywhere else.”

“Leah is a true talent behind the camera. She is amazing with children (parents, too) and has an uncanny ability to capture their spirit and innocence through her art. She provides personalized attention in a fun and relaxed environment. We will forever cherish our girls’ portraits…maternity shots included. : )”

“I had such a great, painless, and fun experience with both Leah and Todd, we’ve been back for family pictures and loved them all! I would send any of my friends and family to get pictures done at L. Severson.
Thanks Leah! =)”

“Getting my senior pictures at L. Severson’s was great. It’s a super relaxed environment and the pictures turned out really well. Definitely the most professional looking pictures from anyone in this area. Thanks Leah”
Austin Gardner
“I had such a fun job doing my senior portraits at L. Severson Portraits! My pictures turned out AWESOME! My family loves them and now my sister wants to get hers done too! I would do it all over again.”
Caitlyn Carr
“Every experience we have had with L. Severson Portrait Art has been so much fun. We love the photos, breathtaking actually. We cannot wait for our next visit, probably around First Communion time. Thanks for the memories Leah and Todd!!!”

“Taking senior pictures can seem uncomfortable–but Leah, you made it such a fun, relaxed experience! I’ve never been so happy with photos of me!!”

“Words really cannot describe how I feel about my experience – I was not prepared for the overwhelming burst of emotions I felt upon viewing the first images. In your packet of instructions on what to be prepared for when coming to view the proofs – you had written “expect to be wowed.” I thought to myself before going ‘how great could they really be?’ I can only say that I was left speechless and in tears as I sat and looked at each portrait thinking how you have captured so much of his little personality, his beauty, his whole essence in each and every portrait. I could go on, but for the sake of not being too cheesy – I think you are an amazing and most talented photographer and I will for now and evermore do nothing but tell everyone I know about what a wonderful experience this has been for me.
When I look at my portraits there are so many emotions that well up inside of me. I see a baby, who at a year ago I was not sure I was so happy about having, and now, every day I look at his beautiful portraits, which I have placed at home, at work, in my car, pretty much everywhere I spend any amount of time, and I thank God for bringing him into our lives.”

“We wanted to let you know how thrilled we are with the beautiful portraits of our son. We knew we wanted something different and special for John’s first portrait. Then I saw your work on display at Maternity Etc. and I knew that was exactly what I wanted!
The portrait session was great. You did such a good job making us feel relaxed and comfortable. We didn’t feel rushed at all. It was nice to be able to stop and feed John in the middle of the portrait session, and not feel like I had a line of people waiting behind me rushing me through the session.
But the most wonderful thing about the whole experience are the portraits of John. When I first saw them, my eyes filled with tears. They are absolutely beautiful. You truly captured him. And the portraits of the three of us together as a family are exactly what I wanted. I love showing the portraits to my friends and family. When we first tried to describe your art to them, they simply couldn’t comprehend it. But when they saw the portraits you took, they were “wowed.”
We’re so glad we found you, and we would do it all over again in a heartbeat.”

“Thanks again for the wonderful portraits you took of Isaac. We were so pleased with the beautiful maternity portraits you took for us, it made perfect sense to trust you to take Isaac’s first portraits too.
Of course, I simply love them all. The Kissables Collection just melts my heart every time I look at it. It’s a wonderful way to capture all those sweet little baby parts forever.
We’re so glad we found such a caring and talented person to record Isaac’s first year. And we’re so excited about the Portrait Storybook you’re creating for us so we’ll remember all his ages and stages. He’s growing up so fast!
Again, thank you so much. We look forward to working with you throughout this year to create a lifetime of lasting memories for our family.”

“Thank you for the beautiful portraits you took of Carter and Griffen.
When Carter was a baby, we took him to one of the ‘chain’ portrait studios. We had 15 minutes to get in, get our pictures, and get out. There were other people waiting in line behind us, and the photographer didn’t really spend any time working with us to get the kind of portraits we really wanted.
That’s why we’re so pleased with the way you do things. I can’t say enough about the session itself. It was great, wonderful, perfect.
I was expecting to see just a few finished portraits. But I couldn’t believe how many really great ones there were to choose from. We just loved them all. And I know I made the right decision choosing your collage print. I have it on the mantle above my fireplace, and when people come to visit us, it stops them dead in their tracks. They just stand there and stare at it. We hear a lot of ‘oohs and ahs’ at our house over it.”

“We just wanted to let you know what a great experience it was being photographed by you, and how happy we are with the portraits of Garrett.
We saw your portraits on display at Barnes and Noble, and we decided we wanted the same feeling and style for Garrett’s pictures too.
When we saw the finished portraits, we loved them. But the beautiful storybook you created is really unbelievable. We’re showed the book to our friends and relatives. They’ve never seen anything like it. It’s such a wonderful way to remember those first days and weeks. He’s changing so much already, it’s unbelievable.
Thank you again for this keepsake. It truly will be something we’ll treasure forever.”
