"Sara was absolutely wonderful to work with. Just a lovely lady all around! I highly recommend her if you have little ones. She was able to get some absolutely stunning pictures of my two year old, while making it so fun for her! She gave great guidance, had awesome ideas for poses...I can't say enough good things!"

"If you are looking for someone to take your photos, she is that person! She is sweet, professional and is so uplifting and encouraging during the photo shoot. She came up with poses and directed me throughout the shoot. I highly recommend her! Book her for your photos, I promise you won’t regret it!"

frequently asked questions
This is a tricky question and there is no "right" answer. I have had a camera since I was 14, went to college for black and white film photography from 18-21, and have been in business since 2018. Within this time I have assisted and second shot with some AMAZING photographers, photographed beautiful weddings, elopements, families, seniors, and models. Overall, you could say I have been photographing for 13 years total, and 4 years professionally! I am constantly learning and growing my craft. I can't wait to see what the future holds!
YES. This is actually what made me fall in love with photography! If this something you want to make sure I incorporate into your package, just let me know! Film has its own costs, but is so dang worth it.
As much as we try to plan for these things, sometimes they happen. And that's okay! This is the season that you AND your littles are in. If I notice little Sally might need a break, then that will absolutely happen. Even if it's Sally going for a little walk with dad (which also makes for some super cute pics) while I take some of mom and little Toby, the main thing is to be flexible and to know that everything is okay. I am a huge believer in letting the kids direct the session and this includes not forcing them or punishing them when things get to be a little overwhelming for them.
In my session guide, I also go over several tips and tricks that include ways to help minimize the possibility of tantrums and also some fun ways to reward them after the session. We got this!
ABSOLUTELY. We have all wondered what to do with our hands. I use a combination of prompts, posing, and "directed candidness" to be able to get those natural images that show y'all at your best and to make y'all comfortable. Don't worry, I got you.
