Despite spending hours crafting overly colorful photo books as a child, I never envisioned myself growing up to become a professional photographer.
Why?
Because, back then, I associated the term “professional” with the photographers who instructed my family to outfit ourselves in single color themed outfits (big yikes...I know), and head to the studio for a stiff, inauthentic session.
Maybe that has been your experience too. Have you ever worked with a photographer who truly took the time to understand how you want to be seen? Who made the experience feel fun and relaxed—even if you normally feel awkward in front of the camera?
If not, that’s where I come in.
I’m Sarah, a wedding and portrait photographer. I capture life’s most treasured moments in a way that genuinely represents you and your personality.
My work is rooted in connection and care. I don’t walk into your session with a one-size-fits-all plan. I come ready to collaborate and adapt—so the experience feels just as memorable as the images themselves.
You don’t need to have it all figured out—posing, locations, what to do with your hands. I’ll guide you with thoughtful direction and an easygoing approach that helps you feel comfortable in front of the camera. The best part? You won’t be thinking about perfect angles—you’ll remember feeling at ease, confident, and hopefully even having fun.
Whether I'm capturing a wedding day, a corporate team, or your personal brand, my role goes far beyond the camera. I’m here to create a thoughtful, stress-free experience from start to finish—and deliver honest, intentional images that reflect you at your best.

I am a competitive ballroom dancer. I started dancing my sophomore year of college, fell in love with the sport and have been doing it ever since. More recently, I enjoy taking contemporary dance classes. I can't say I'm a pro by any means, but it's a fun workout.

I definitely am a breakfast/brunch person. Even if I wake up late, I will always prefer eating some type of egg dish over lunch food. Anyone else? If so, please send me brunch spot recommendations. :)

I enjoy shooting
When I am inspired by the lighting conditions, I can often be found around town capturing sunsets or flying my drone (sometimes a combination of both!) I also love capturing landscapes during my travels. Check out my "Landscape" highlight on my Instagram Story to view some of my favorite images.
