Welcome to Studio Nido! 🪺
I'm Leana, a photographer born and raised in Montreal in an Italian family, where I was lucky enough to grow up surrounded by photo albums that told our family's story. Growing up with those memories inspired my passion for photography, and giving others that gift too!
Family has always been at the heart of who I am, and that's what inspired the name Nido - Italian for "nest". It represents the feeling of home I hope you'll experience the moment you walk through the studio door. (Fun fact: my last name means "duckling" in Italian, a family symbol that's always held a special place in my heart.) 🦆
Whether you're celebrating a growing family, expecting a little one, capturing your love as a couple, or simply treating yourself to a portrait, Studio Nido is a space where everyone is welcome.
I can't wait to meet you and help create photographs you'll treasure for years to come!

sessions
It's never about perfect poses -
It's about taking a moment to slow down and disconnect.
Before we even start, I take the time to get to know you so you feel comfortable, relaxed, and completely yourself. I'll guide you every step of the way, so there's no pressure and no "what do I do with my hands?" moments.
By the end, you'll leave with beautiful photos, but hopefully you'll also leave feeling refreshed after taking a little time for yourself.
