About Me

I’m Sarah! And I’m bad at describing myself on the internet ~ I’m a photographer based in North Carolina, where I’ve grown up all my life. I find that I always do my best work outdoors, so NC is a pretty ideal place to be.

I love photographing love! My venture into wedding photography started when I realized that I could actually turn my favorite hobby into my career. It’s such an incredible thing being able to do what you enjoy every day and not have it feel like work.

Other things I love: dogs, yoga, horror movies and cheesy rom coms (sometimes back to back), spoonfuls of peanut butter, and simply being outside. I’m a minimalist at heart, and drool over good design. And lastly, I’m a huge animal rescue advocate and am very involved in the local dog rescue community! It’s one of my biggest passions.

My #1 goal in working together is to make you feel 100% confident and comfortable. So much so that you forget i’m even there. I strive to make my sessions feel laid back, adventurous and fun. So if you and your significant other are up for adventuring in the woods, grabbing a coffee and exploring downtown, or re-visiting some of your favorite spots, i’d love to tag along and let my creative juices do their thing! I promise I make a great third wheel.
