I have a young and creative staff and we all love what we do. We take care of the little things that make your pictures worth the expense. And we're always willing and able to work with you - we are in this to make sure there are no barriers to good photography for everybody.

Owner
Hi! I'm excited to be your photographer!
Photography has been my creative outlet since my kids were little (they're almost all grown now!). I love a good joke, board games, trashy TV, herding cats and generally embracing life's mysteries and wonders. I will love photographing your wedding as much as I love my own wedding pictures. Nothing makes me happier than making you happy with your memories of you most special day.

Sarah was probably the BEST choice my husband and I made for our wedding back in August (apart from one another :) ). Sarah worked with us on capturing a variety of beautiful momen...
ts and was so flexible throughout the day. We were also highly impressed with the turnaround time and the stunning results of her artistry.
Additionally, it was of the utmost importance to us to have queer-friendly (particularly trans-friendly) photographer, as many of our wedding attendants and guests are part of the LGBTQ+ community (to which I also belong). Sarah did not bat an eye at affirming everyone's identities and using inclusive language for our wedding parties, which was one less thing I needed to feel anxious about.
Thank you, Sarah, for giving us beautiful pictures to remind us of a wonderful day.
Hopefully, I'll be able to add examples of the images we received later. TheKnot seems to think I haven't given it permission to access my storage...

venue, Frederik Meijer Gardens, so she already had an idea of some photo opportunities. We appreciate that she was able to work with us to stay within our budget for our 40 person wedding.

ple it was difficult to find an artist who matched our values and could see my wife’s scrapbook-worthy picture visions. But Sarah persevered and got my wife squealing with joy when the pictures arrived; which was just minutes before we boarded our honeymoon flight - aka a surprisingly quick turnaround! Not only that, but she provided another local business to create our prints. They were so amazingly crafted that we included a picture with every guest thank you card. I’m very happy with the results of her hard work and I can’t wait to find an excuse to hire her again!

art of your picture and vision. She took time to get to know my wife and I, so she could get the romantic and silly photos we wanted. Additionally, she was extremely patient working with our big groups of family and friends. I recommend her to all my friends who are current and future lovers - if you’re looking for an affordable, professional, and dedicated photographer you’ve found the one.

Both our posed phots and candids at the reception were gorgeous and truly captured the spirit of our day. I am so grateful to Sarah for having a keen eye and knowing exactly what photographs would help us to remember our special day. I would highly recommend Sarah for wedding photos or any other memorable occasion.

Sarah was so easy to work with and delivered the photos quickly. Very highly recommended for your big day.

otographer sense of humor or weird chatter—like put you at ease and make you forget you’re being photographed. She has a terrific eye for detail, she knows how to catch people in conversation without interrupting, and I feel like she captures joy in all its forms. Very easy to work with and a veritable bargain when you see how many truly great photos you have afterwards. Sarah’s the one you want to hire!
