Sara is an amazing photographer! We hired her for our wedding, which includes engagement photos in the package we selected. Our wedding isn’t until February, but we can’t wait because the engagement photos are absolutely stunning. She's also great at giving instructions for poses, candid shots, etc., if it's your first photo session like it was for us. Highly recommend.
We absolutely loved Sara, we've said multiple times we are so glad we found her for our wedding. Sara was so kind & she made two introverts feel confident in front a camera. On our wedding day, she understood what we were hoping for and she was very flexible to make sure our day was captured completely. I am in love with the photos we've received & I would recommend Sara over and over to wedding couples!
Sara is AMAZING! We had the best experience having her photograph our engagement session and wedding. She made us feel so comfortable posing even though we are not big picture people. She is so talented and got us so many amazing pictures of our day and she edited them all very quickly!
Sara did an absolutely beautiful job capturing all of the candid and fun-filled moments of our wedding! She was incredibly easy to work with and completely set us at ease, as having your pictures taken all day can certainly be unsettling. She made sure to make sure we were comfortable and listened to make sure all of the shots we wanted were prioritized. She has a fantastic eye and a knack for getting the perfect angle without interrupting the flow of the day for even a second. Our guests were delighted with all of the great dancing shots she captured and my husband and I were in awe of the number of gorgeous portrait shots she was able to capture in such a short period of time. We opted for a package with a second shooter and Sara brought along Molly Humphrey (@artisticimagezbymollyhumphrey) who fit in beautifully. This pair is willing to do whatever it takes to get the shot, even if that means lying on the grass to capture that perfect angle. We loved working with Sara and Molly and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer in the Maryland/DC/Eastern Shore area! You won't regret it.
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Sara for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the incredible experience! Since Sara had not shot a wedding at our venue before, she met us at the final venue walkthrough and worked with us to find the best photo spots. It ended up raining on our wedding day, but Sara ensured we still got all the photos we wanted. Sara was fun, calm, and responsive. We already received some sneak peek shots and we love her style and ability to capture the genuine moments. We highly recommend Sara for anyone seeking an outstanding wedding photographer.
Sara is amazing - I can’t say enough good things. Not only did our photos turn out amazing, but Sara was so fun to work with. She has such a calming energy and made everyone feel at ease.
Sara is absolutely INCREDIBLE to work with and her work is fantastic. We are ecstatic with the photos we received — they really tell the story of our entire event. She managed to squeeze in so many fabulous photos in a short time period with a lot of moving parts. There are so many lovely posed and candid photos to choose from. She is the BEST!!!!
Sara was so amazing to work with! Our wedding had young children included and she embraced the craziness and truly captured our family in all of its natural and authentic wildness! Everyone who interacted with her at the wedding raved about how sweet she was, absolutely recommend !
If you are looking for a wedding photographer in the DMV area, please look no further than Sara Vars! My search for a wedding photographer was very overwhelming. If all else failed on my wedding day, I knew, if anything, I wanted great pictures to look back on. In the wedding photographer search, I had browsed portfolios and made over 50 wedding photographer inquiries in the DMV area. When I came across Sara Vars’ photography website, I instantly connected with her work. Her elegant and timeless photography style was exactly what I was looking for without breaking the bank. Upon the first consultation with Sara, I immediately knew I had to book her as the wedding photographer. Sara is very inviting, attentive and makes photoshoots fun. She has great ideas for photographs. For our 100+ guest wedding, she covered all the details beautifully from start to end. I even had guests tell me how awesome Sara was during our wedding -she was on the job! My husband Michael and I are very thankful we have these breathtaking photos to look back on for years and years to come. MANY THANKS to Sara! Best, Jeanie
I am so grateful that I found Sara through The Knot! She was so much fun and so easy to work with. The pictures turned out gorgeous and she got so many good candid shots of my friends and family. I honestly don't think she put down her camera the entire night, there were so many to pick from! I am so glad we booked her, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Also, her prices are very reasonable!
We are so glad we hired Sara to capture our special day! She is an absolute delight to work with from start to finish. She paid very close attention to every detail of our special day from the signature cocktails, to our ceremony, to the dance floor shenanigans. She helped keep us on track through family/bridal party photos and her photos turned out beautifully!!
Sara was so great to work with for our Wedding! Despite the heat and chance of rain she captured all the little moments taking advantage of every moment! We just got all the photos back and how she captured everything was so much more than we could have asked for! As we start a family we hope to use her again!
Thanks Sara for documenting the memories!
We are so happy that Sara was our wedding photographer! First, we were so excited after we saw our engagement photos. They were so great! Then COVID happened and we had to reschedule multiple times, and Sara was great about working with us through that. We finally got to have our wedding, and the photos were amazing!!! We had a large wedding party and she kept us right on schedule and was very familiar with our venue, so she already knew the best picture spots! The day was full of many special moments and Sara captured everything so perfectly. Everyone is still telling us how beautiful our wedding photos are.
Sara is absolutely phenomenal! We could not have asked for a more accommodating and professional photographer!
Her galleries were what sold me on her style of editing and shooting. We went over what we (the bride and groom) wanted from our wedding photos, and she NAILED it! She captured such genuine joy from the day from every angle.
During the shoots, Sara would ask us if we had preferences, take everything into consideration, and ultimately we gave her the reins because we knew she would make us look amazing :) She truly captured the essence of the wedding, and the fun of our big day! (and was ever vigilant about COVID guidelines!!)
We cannot recommend Sara Vars Photography enough.
Our daughter found Sara Vars Photography on The Knot website, and after interviewing several photographers, chose her. What a find! Unequivocally, Sara is outstanding at her craft/profession. She took amazing photos of our daughter and son in law's wedding day- from start to finish. I loved how she was 'stealth' the entire day, and yet captured the feel of the day beautifully. She was timely in getting photos back to us. We requested a 'slide show' for those who could not attend due to Covid-19 and we had that to share within the week. It was amazing and I think now posted on her website! The feedback from family and friends has been outstanding. In fact, after seeing the photos a client of a friend booked her on the spot! True testimony!
Sara did a fantastic job and everyone comments on how beautiful our photos are. (I can't stop looking at them because I just love ALL of them!) Unfortunately, due to the pandemic we were unable to meet Sara in person until the day of our wedding. However, upon actually meeting her, I felt like we had met a hundred times. Sara was so great to work with!! She made everyone feel so comfortable, kept us on time and captured some amazing candid moments. I absolutely LOVE our wedding photos and highly recommend Sara Vars.
We worked with Sara for our engagement photos and wedding day and are so glad that we did!! A friend of mine had worked with Sara for her wedding day and had recommended her, and after speaking with Sara I immediately knew I wanted her to do my wedding. She is so easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. Everyone also commented about how wonderful she was! She found such amazing settings at our venue to get gorgeous shots. It rained at the end of our outdoor ceremony and for the rest of the night, but she found a way to use the rain to our advantage by taking some really awesome photos of us under an umbrella. We absolutely love all of our photos and are so grateful that we have such beautiful pictures to remember our special day!
Sara was a fantastic photographer, and we had nothing but a positive experience with her from our initial meeting, the engagement photoshoot, leading up to the wedding, the wedding day, her timely delivery of the photos, and of course the amazing quality and variety of the photos. We couldn't be happier with how they turned out. Thank you again Sara!
One of the best decisions I made throughout the wedding planning process was booking Sara as our wedding photographer! We have the most gorgeous and perfect photos to remember our wedding day by and I could not be more grateful. On our wedding day, she showed up and immediately began taking pictures; she worked nonstop all day! She always seemed to be there when I wanted a picture taken and was proactive in taking pictures we had not talked about, like getting a couple shots in front of the most gorgeous sunset! She navigated all the crazy family picture combos so naturally and everybody commented on how great she was! Thanks so much Sara!!
Sara was phenomenal throughout the entire process! She has this way of making you feel calm admist the chaos of wedding planning and during the big day. She answers all questions and concerns very promptly via email and is able to adapt to last minute requests. She is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. The photos turned out absolutely stunning!
I don't even know where to start! Sara was phenomenal from the very first meeting! She made everything so easy and guided
this discombobulated and overwhelmed bride throughout the whole process. And the wedding day...I'm still amazed at the fantastic job she did. We had a massive wedding party and Sara was able to get the most efficient bridal party and family shots I have ever experienced. They all turned out beautiful! I'm so grateful we found such a wonderful person, both behind the camera and in general, to photograph our wedding. I would recommend her to everyone!
Sara was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She let us be ourselves and we really enjoyed our time with her. We got some of the most gorgeous Baltimore City pictures, we literally stopped traffic. Sara was so easy to work with. She really captured who we are as people in our photos. I honestly can't stop looking at them.
I am writing to bring to your attention the very positive experience my family had utilizing the services of Sara Vars Photography. Our son and daughter-in-law were married on August 25, 2019 in Edgemere, Maryland. The newlyweds had selected Sarah Vars to be their photographer, and it turned out to be an excellent decision. In addition to being a highly skilled photographer (an artist), Sarah was very pleasant and thorough. As my husband was still recovering from a broken ankle at the time of the wedding, he as not fully mobile at the wedding. Sarah went out of her way to let us know when “important” events would be occurring so that my husband could make his way (slowly) to the appropriate location to witness these once in a lifetime events. Ross and Katie, as well as the rest of the family, leaned heavily on Sarah. Sarah was very patient and extremely knowledgeable. There is no doubt in our minds that she deserves a lot of credit for this event’s being a huge success and leaving the entire family with some cherished memories to view in years to come.
Please feel free to use us an extremely positive reference.
Thank you,
L and C
We are just so happy that we found Sara Vars to photograph our wedding. Not only was she a joy to work with, but people have been telling us our wedding photos are some of the best they’ve ever seen. We agree!! She is organized, fast and great at giving nervous family members direction in photos. Our planner confirmed that Sara also has some of the best pricing in the area. We loved being able to add a second photographer to our package to make sure all angles of our big wedding were covered. Thank you, Sara!!
Sara was one of the absolute best decisions we made when planning our wedding! From emailing, to engagement session photos, to the big day, everything was perfect. She is so easy to talk to, and makes you feel so comfortable. I was very worried about making the right decision when it came to our photographer, and honestly we couldn't have made a better decision! Our family and friends had nothing but amazing things to say about Sara, and we couldn't be happier with the way all of our pictures turned out!! Highly recommend!!
Sara was a great choice for our wedding day! In a way, she almost functioned as a wedding planner with how awesome she was in keeping us on track and making sure we stuck to the timeline! I was a little nervous about having only one photographer for a large wedding, but it seemed like she got all the important angles and I didn't notice her presence at all during the ceremony, which I loved. My husband is not a huge fan of pictures, but she made him feel comfortable and from our sneak peek I can already tell they turned out great. She is also very friendly and personable, very fun to work with. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a reasonably priced, talented wedding photographer in the Baltimore/DC region.
Not being from the Baltimore area it was difficult to not "shoot from the hip" when deciding on the photographer for our wedding. We scored big time with Sara Vars. We used her for our engagement shoot as well as the entire day of our wedding. We had her bring a second photographer as well and both women were absolutely amazing! Both my wife and I were extremely happy with the experience we had with Sara Vars Photography.
We LOVED working with Sara! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera during our engagement session. On our wedding day she was super flexible and professional. She captured the most beautiful photos during our wedding ceremony and reception without being a distraction to our guests. She is an absolute joy and I will always recommend her to anyone in need of a photographer!
I do not even have words for how wonderful it was to work with Sara! She worked with my craziness, and disorganization and was able to capture all of the intimate moments of my wedding. The pictures turned out more beautiful than I ever dreamed. Also she is just a wonderful person, was able to go with the flow and keep me on track. She made sure to get the shots that I will treasure for a lifetime. Thank you Sara! I hope I have an event in the future so I can work with you again.
Sara was an absolute joy to work with!!! My husband and I aren’t model by any means, and we get extra awkward in front of the camera. Sara made us feel comfortable from the moment we met her, and continued to do so at our engagement session and on our wedding day. She gave us the guidance we so desperately needed and made everything so fun. Not to mention, the pictures she took are breathtaking. Working with Sara as your wedding photographer will be the best decision you’ll ever make!!!!!
My husband and I absolutely love Sara! I am a huge fan of photography and Sara's unique style was just perfect. My husband, on the other hand, never wants to be in front of the camera. After our engagement session with Sara, he told me how comfortable he felt. He actually said it was fun!!! It really was! Our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely beautiful! We have so many hung around our house. It was impossible to pick favorites. Our family and friends all told us how much they loved Sara as well. Her personality is just great and makes the big day so much better! I would highly recommend Sara Vars Photography!
We used Sara Vars for our small wedding in May of 2018. She was very accommodating as we did not need a full day of coverage. She asked great questions about what we were looking for and recommended a 4 hour package that would provide us with the coverage we needed. She got all the shots we asked for and the pictures turned out beautifully. I would definitely recommend Sara!
Sara was incredible to work with! She put us at ease from the get-go and was extremely flexible with our schedule for both our engagement shoot and the day of the wedding. The photos turned out beautifully, and she captured not only what we asked her to get, but also photos we wouldn’t have thought to ask for. We can’t say enough great things about Sara! We’re so happy she captured our day for us!!
I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! Ever since we first met with Sara I just got “good vibes” from her which means a lot to me. She was very nice, down to earth, not pushy and of course I thought that her portfolio was simply beautiful. She was so kind and helpful through the whole process and answered any questions/concerns that I had. When working with her for our engagement and wedding photos she gave just enough direction without going overboard and made it fun. She made us feel so relaxed and comfortable, it was like we had known her for years. You can tell that she truly cares about her clients and loves what she does. I’m beyond thrilled with my entire experience and have recommended her to several people (and will continue to do so)! Thank you so much for everything!
Photography was probably my most important vendor; having great photos to last a lifetime was really important to me. From the second I met Sara, she made me feel comfortable, at ease, and like I was in good hands, and her portfolio sold me!!
For the wedding, Sara and Molly were true professionals. Our timeline for the day got turned inside out due to unrelenting rain, but they showed up prepared in rain jackets and had enough of the cute clear umbrellas for the bridal party to use. We were limited to Bancroft for taking bridal party photos/romantics after the wedding, and family photos were moved to inside of the reception hall during cocktail hour, but Sara and Molly were so flexible and very creative with their shots (and worth mentioning- they were able to get 60 family photo combinations in an hour!!) Throughout the day Sara kept me relaxed, truly made me feel special and let me enjoy the day. And now that I have the pictures back, I'm absolutely blown away!! From posed romantics to formal family portraits to candid dancing shots Sara captured everything, even somethings I missed. There's not a single photo I don't like, and I don't feel like I missed out on any photo opportunities because of the rain- in fact, Sara managed to get some incredible shots with it!! (that's me in the rain photo with the umbrella!!) You truly won't have any regrets hiring Sara, and I'm forever grateful that we did!
Sara was absolutely amazing!!! Her pictures were stunning. I felt like I was back at my wedding all over again. The only problem I have is I want to hang them all in my house and don't have enough wall space! I highly recommend her she was super easy to work with, easy going and always responded to any questions quickly. She even managed to get my husband to smile and he hates taking pictures :-) She doesn't just take pictures she tells a story, hire her today!
I truly cannot express how great Sara was to work with. Her photographs are stunning, but beyond that she has a way of making sure everything goes smoothly and that you’re not worried about a single thing besides being happy about your big day. Multiple guests from my wedding have dubbed her the hardest working person at the wedding, and my husband, who was pretty hands-off about anything wedding related, could not stop raving about her on our way home from the wedding. I would recommend Sara again and again to anyone looking for a photographer, she really was amazing!
Sara and Molly (the 2nd photographer for about 6 hours) were amazing on our wedding day! My husband and I were thrilled to get to know Sara during the engagement photos - she is really warm and welcoming and put us at ease while also capturing some amazing photos, a ton of them actually! Considering the back-breaking work at the wedding and hours of editing photos, we also found the price very reasonable for engagement photos, Sara's work during the wedding, and the extra cost of a 2nd photographer for part of the time.
During the wedding day, Sara and Molly coordinated so we could meet for our first look and they were pros at capturing the list of shots we had sent - so fast that we had a lot more time for photos of just my husband and I before we headed over to the ceremony. They both really outdid themselves - scaling Federal Hill to get different photo angles, politely taking everyone's photos who asked, and laughing off the antics of my husband's groomsmen. Sara put up with our guests and family members and did her best to make sure everyone was looking at her camera rather than the iPhones other people were trying to use. Sara even went the extra mile at the end of the night and stayed longer than we expected to capture some amazing photos at the end of the wedding! She also reminded us of photos we wanted to take during the reception of certain groups of our guests and helped coordinate to find everyone.
We couldn't be happier to have hired Sara for our wedding! She is such a pleasure to be around and also a pro at herding/organizing large groups of people and getting all of the photos we wanted! We wouldn't hesitate to hire her again!
Hiring Sara as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we could have made! Sara takes a very personal approach in her work and really cares about her clients and their vision. She got to know me and my husband over the months of planning and was so wonderfully communicative during the process of planning our wedding that was a destination for us. We loved being able to have Sara do our engagement shoot as well! During that time we got to know how she worked and we were able to get used to working with her in front of the camera! Fast forward to our wedding day - and a surprise snow day at that and everything went off without a hitch! Sara is a genuine sweetheart and is unbelievably accommodating! The snow added an amazing backdrop for our photos, something you could not plan for and she went right along with it executing shots with her eye and creativity. When getting delivered our photo gallery, my husband and I were able to relive our day all over again! She captured the most genuine moments of our day and I’m forever grateful!
Sara Vars is amazing! Not only are her pictures beautiful, but she has a way of making a very nervous bride feel at ease. She went above and beyond for us and we are so thankful! We had many sets of family members to be photographed and she flew through them. She captured all of the small details beautifully, one of which was a picture charm on my bridal bouquet for my Dad and brother who had passed away. It was in almost every picture and I was amazed at how clearly it could be seen. If we ever are in need of a photographer again, we will definitely be calling Sara!
Sara was just the best to work with! The moment my husband and I had our consultation with her, we knew she was the photographer we wanted. Her portfolio speaks for itself! During our engagement pictures, she made sure we were enjoying ourselves and really got to know us. She captured so many perfect moments at the wedding, down to the little details of the day. We got so many photos and I could look at them all day! The album she made for us with our favorite pictures (let's be honest, it was so difficult to narrow it down to just 24 photos) was such a great touch and something additional for us to treasure.
Simply said, working with Sara is so much more than wedding photographs - What started with a consultation with Sara turned into engagement photos, wedding photos, pregnancy photos, photos with our son….she did such a great job she even was the photographer at my mother-in-law’s wedding just a few months ago! Sara has documented so many of the significant moments in our family and I couldn’t trust anyone else to so artfully and authentically capturing these important times.
Working with Sara has always been a delight – and clearly we keep coming back for more. Obviously, her photographs speak for themselves, but I can attest to the wonderful working relationship she brings to the table. In the beginning, when certain poses didn’t feel like “us”, Sara didn’t push, but adapted to capture our natural norm. She made all our family feel at ease, and was sensitive to blended and nontraditional families as well. When we ask if we could try certain setups she was always willing and able to adapt to our requests.
Sometimes reviews just don’t do someone the justice they deserve. As long as we are here, Sara will be our photographer for life! Thank you again and again for your amazing work!
Sara was an absolute dream to have as our photographer! From our very first meeting, it was apparent that Sara wanted to capture the moments during our engagement shoot and wedding day that meant the most to us. She was so easy going and fun to work with and never made us feel rushed during our pictures. Sara always remained professional and never get frazzled, even when our 1 year old puppy was running around like crazy because she knew how important those pictures with our dog were to us. Sara was extremely responsive during the whole process, and was very flexible when we had to change our wedding venue a few months before our wedding date. The photos that Sara delivered were simply amazing and I couldn't believe how quickly we received them. I can't say enough great things about Sara and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer!
Sara is amazing! I can not speak more highly of her. Her talent as a photographer is obvious by looking at all of her pictures, but the way she was able to work with our large bridal party, and even larger family, truly shows how professional and organized she is. She is so easy to talk with, and any time I had a question, she would never fail to get back to me with detailed answers in a matter of hours. If you want not only stunning photos, but someone who is extremely professional and a blast to work with, Sara is your girl!
Sara was a wonderful photographer! From the very first meeting, she was so professional and buttoned up. She was so quick to jump in with helping us map out the timeline for the day and start getting organized.
The for the engagement shoot, she provided great tips for us ahead of time and was so ready to go day-of.
For the wedding, she had a second photographer and both were great! They were everywhere without being in the way. They didn't miss a moment of the day. After the wedding, we got our photos, both the blog preview and the full wedding photos SO quickly (under 1 month). They really did a perfect job of capturing our day, who we are, our friends and family, and the fun had by all.
Our package included an album and we had the entire printed album and flash drive with all photos less than 2 months after the wedding. I can't say enough great things about Sara Vars Photography!
I don't know where to even begin to explain how amazing Sara Vars is! From the ease in communication and comfort to the product and pure artistry, Sara is amazing! I am so grateful that I could trust someone with something so important. Thank you for everything Sara, I could never say that enough!
Booking Sara was one of the best decisions we made during wedding planning. She was the only photographer we met with, because we just instantly clicked with her (and her pictures are AMAZING). During our engagement shoot, she made my husband feel comfortable (which was great, because he's not a big fan of photos), and was so fun to work with. On the wedding day, it was so relaxing to work with Sara--she made me feel (and look) beautiful. She's incredibly sweet and funny, and was everywhere during the wedding. Every time I turned around, Sara was there getting another great shot, and she caught plenty of moments we didn't even know were happening. Both sets of parents (and everyone else I showed pictures to, which was essentially everyone I know) LOVED the photos, and when my mom is happy, everyone is happy. I can't say enough great things about Sara!
Working with Sara was an absolute pleasure. She was extremely friendly, communicative, and professional at all times. My fiance and I are not normally very comfortable in front of the camera. During our engagement session, Sara did an amazing job making us feel comfortable and helping us to have fun and enjoy the experience! The photos turned out gorgeous! She was incredible during the wedding itself as well...a true artist and pleasure to work with!
We were so grateful to have had Sara as our photographer. She was very professional, easy to communicate with and help us with ideas for pictures. Sara was always available to communicate to my now husband and I as well as my parents and the other venders. She loves what she does and has a great talent in photography. She went above and beyond when capturing our two young children in pictures. She made them laugh and have a great time. The day of our wedding our 4 year old daughter became hungry while my girls and I were getting ready, Sara did something unexpected and searched all over the venue for a snack for her. When she came back with Chez Its, our daughter said excitedly , “Thank you Mrs. Sara.” Our children felt comfortable with her and were able to have fun while being photographed. Sara not only took our wedding photos, but our engagement photos as well. Our Venue was on the beach and she captured the sand, the sky, water, and our love for each other as if it were a perfect dream. I would recommend her to anyone who wanted their pictures and their special day to be perfect.

Sara is amazing!! From the first 5 minutes of our initial phone call, I knew Sara would be the perfect person to take our wedding photos. She is so genuine and easy to talk to! Our wedding was in Maryland but my husband and I met & live in Philadelphia, Sara had no problem driving to Philly to take our engagement photos! The day of our wedding she blew us away with her excitement and happiness to be a part of the day. She was practically invisible during our Catholic Church ceremony, which was important to me, but you would never think that from looking at the photos - stunning! Many of our guests even commented on how sweet our photographer was! I absolutely recommend!!
Sara is more than just a photographer...she's an artist. Every picture from our wedding is absolutely perfect! And not only have we enjoyed our professional relationship with her, but now we feel as though she could be one of our closest friends. Thank you, Sara, for helping us preserve the best day of our lives.
Sara was wonderful. She was accommodating and very helpful with all of our questions. I didn't know what types of photographs I wanted so Sara gave suggestions and created an outline of who we may want to take pictures with so I wouldn't forget. Most of all, she made me and my fiance feel at ease.
Thank you so much!
Sara did an amazing job at our wedding! She made everyone feel so comfortable and she was very patient with everyone and our boys. She even was also very helpful and professional. We recommend her to everyone wanting a pro at their special day. She holds a very special place in our hearts. You can't go wrong with her!! Our pictures are unbelievable!!!!
She was an amazingly great person, and it shows in her work. She was the perfect person for our day, easy going, and understanding, but always working for the perfect photograph. I never felt like just a job; instead I was glad to have her there with us every step of the way. Her communication was exceptional and I just adore her work ethic. If you want natural, stunning pictures that don't look like they are real but they are because you were there;) then go with Sara Vars such an investment!
Sara was the photographer at our June wedding held on the Black Eyed Susan, a Paddle Wheel boat out of Canton in Baltimore. My husband and I are seniors - in our late 60s - but we had a lively crowd of 65. The ceremony and the reception were both held on the Black Eyed Susan. As you can imagine this was a unique and challenging venue. But Sara did an outstanding job of capturing the evening. My dream was to have a picture with my husband with the Baltimore inner harbor at sunset with pink clouds in the background. Sara helped make that happen - along with some good fortune with the weather. I love looking back at my pictures to remember the souvenirs and how they looked on the table, the beautiful cake, and of course our family and fiends eating, talking, and dancing. The wedding album that was part of the package is beautiful.
Sara was absolutely amazing. She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement pictures and did a amazing job capturing every moment at our wedding. She was so down to earth and really just a perfect addition to our special day. She will be our forever photographer! Thank you Sara for going above and behind to capturing the best moments of our lives this far! We could not thank you enough!
I have no words for how much I loved this Sara and my engagement/wedding photos! Sara was such a sweet lady and she was very organized on our big day..i sent her a VERY long list of shots that we wanted and she made sure to get every single of them done no matter what. My day was just completely organized and went more smoothly than i could of ever hoped. Our wedding photos turned out better than i ever thought they would, im SO happy!!
Sara was absolutely amazing! I was planning my wedding from out of state and she made the entire process so easy. She was reliable and always there to answer any questions. She fit right in with my family and friends and captured all the special moments of the day. She got the pictures to me within a few weeks and they came out even better than I could have imagined. I would highly recommend her!!
We could not have asked for a better photographer or a better experience working with Sara! She was absolutely amazing and I have nothing, but good things to say about her. Sara did our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos with stunning results for both. She made having our photos taken, often an awkward experience, extremely comfortable. I highly highly recommend Sara!!
Sara did a fantastic job and the photos were beautiful! After I saw how awesome she was for my sister's wedding June 2014, I knew I wanted her to be there for my wedding October 2015. I am very happy with the amazing photos!
Sara Vars was a pleasure to work with. We're young and very career-oriented, and not very organized with anything else in life, so we were ALL over the place. Even with our crazy situation Sara was so flexible, accommodating, creative, professional, and friendly. I can't say enough how much we loved her! Not only was she a fantastic photographer but she was an overall fun person to be around. I've been recommending her to all my friends for all their occasions. Do yourself a favor and call her!!
I highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a photographer. Sara was very easy and fun to work with and made having my picture taken a pleasant experience. On the wedding day it poured, causing the majority of the pictures to me taken inside. Although the location and lighting were not ideal, the pictures were breath-taking. On top of the beautiful pictures from that day, we were also able to schedule a time later to take pictures outside in my dress. I could not be more happy with the pictures.
My now husband and I found Sara Vars on weddingwire and are so thankful we did. Sara was incredibly flexible when it came to meeting up with us and scheduling our engagement shoot. Even though it was almost 100 degrees Sara made sure our photos came out great. Both Sara and Molly were wonderful to work with on our big day. We received our photos quickly and not only are they amazing, they came in such a cute box. I highly recommend Sara!
Sara Vars is a remarkable photographer! Although she wasn't there from the morning into the night, she was there during the most important hours capturing memories that will last us a lifetime. I look back on our wedding photos four months later, and am constantly reminded of our dream wedding. Sara is awesome, and I would totally recommend her services! :)
Sara was absolutely amazing throughout the entire wedding process. She was so readily available to answer all my questions and re-schedule our engagement session about 6 times because of my crazy work schedule! She shot us in 17 degree weather on top of Federal Hill and those pictures are just amazing, we get SO many compliments! For our wedding, Sara became more of a friend through it all. The hotel we used didn't have a day of coordinator that worked with me as the bride specifically. Sara stepped in to help with all of it! She kept us laughing and at ease when I was most anxious. When we got our pictures today I am simply blown away. She managed to capture every memory that I wanted to preserve and they are stunning. The quality of work is just out of this world. I cannot recommend Sara Vars enough!!!!!!
I got married June 6, 2015 in Baltimore City and hired Sara Vars as my photographer. Working with Sara was such a pleasure from start to finish and I especially appreciated her fun and relaxed attitude. She worked quickly and efficiently moving through a ton of family and bridal party photos in the time allotted for happy hour. Sara really go to know my husband and I and captured pictures that reflect our personalities and relationship, including shots where we didn't even know she was there!! Sara was organized and responsive and figuring out all of the details before the wedding was a breeze. My package also included an engagement photo session and my engagement pictures were amazing. Hiring Sara was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding and I hope to have a chance to work with her again in the future for other life events!
Sara was the best photographer we could have chosen for our special day. We had a truly wonderful experience both with our engagement photo session(which was included) and our wedding day. She wasn't pushy at all, asked us what we wanted out of our photos, and her ideas matched up perfectly with what we had in mind. She was in constant communication with us up to the wedding day and afterwards to make sure everything was correct.
We are so glad we chose Sara Vars and we couldn't be happier!!
We absolutely loved working with Sara for our wedding. She offers several different packages, including just a 4-hour package that includes the wedding photos, a 1 hour engagement photo session, online access to all the photos, and a wedding album. This is the package we chose and it was perfect. We go all the wedding party, family, ceremony, and start of reception photos we wanted. Besides being a great photographer, Sara is laid-back and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in the mid-Atlantic.
Sara agreed to shoot my wedding on short notice, and at a very reasonable price! She worked with me extensively beforehand to ensure I got every shot I wanted. On the day of the wedding she was able to corral my HUGE wedding party so that we got amazing shots! I can't thank her enough for the lovely photos!
We LOVED Sara!! She's fun to work with, professional, nice, a good value, and a great photographer. Of all the decisions I made for the wedding, I think choosing her was one of the best ones.
Sara Vars was a pleasure to work with every time we met. She did our engagement photos and wedding photos and I am in love with them all. She is professional and listens to what you want. She is just awesome! I highly recommend her! She does beautiful work and is an amazing person too!
We loved having Sara as our wedding photographer. We did not meet before the day of, but she was very easy to get in touch with and answered all of our questions. She worked with us to create the package that fit well for our needs and helped us figure out before hand what pictures were important for us to have. The day of the wedding Sara was very laid back and likable and it was easy to be comfortable taking pictures with her. She took beautiful pictures and captured the day perfectly. Our edited photos were back just a couple of weeks after the wedding and we couldn't have been more pleased.
Sara Vars Photography provided photography services for my son and daughter in law's wedding. Sara's photos were candid and creative, and she always found that unique photo op that makes a wedding memorable. She began by taking photos of the bride and her parents at their home, and then arrived at the chapel promptly and was able to "grab" those "before wedding" priceless photos. Sara's creative eye made use of the flowers blooming outside the chapel, as well as the historic architecture that the chapel offered to add to the richness of her photography. Sara was willing to work within their budget, and she produced one-of-a-kind photos that this couple will treasure for a lifetime. I highly recommend Sara Vars Photography.
I have only high praise for Sara Vars! Her work was professional, beautiful and prompt. I highly recommend her and would use her again without question.
Sara Vars took the pictures the entire weekend of our wedding, including but not limited to, the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, wedding and reception.
She did an amazing job! Her stamina and energy never wavered. She had a positive attitude throughout the whole weekend. Sara was genuinely excited and pleasant to work with!
Sara took great care to listen to what I had to say, my vision and desire as the bride.
Great photographer for our DIY wedding! We didn't want the big formal church wedding and all the accompanying stress, so we were married in my parents' backyard in a very non-traditional ceremony, and Sara was fantastic. She was very unobtrusive (not in everyone's face like some photographers I've seen) and was very happy to go with the flow and put up with our quirky wedding, which to me was extremely important because I wanted a no-drama wedding day. She was professional and friendly to everyone and took the perfect blend of formal and candid photos. I can honestly that she was the perfect choice for us and did exactly what a wedding photographer should do--she preserved our memories of a fantastic day without giving me even one second of added stress. And the photos are fantastic!
Sara was phenomenal! She was easy to work with, professional, reliable, and simply knew how to make us comfortable. She took the requested standard portrait shots, but also took such creative photojournalistic ones that we will cherish. The quality in her pictures is brilliant! She did everything we wanted and more. She captured our wedding in such a beautiful way making it so personal and special! She is totally worth it!
Sara did a great job at our wedding!
Sara was very professional. She allowed us to incorporate some of our own ideas while making sure that the photos as a whole were still cohesive. She kept us on schedule after the wedding, and we have so many wonderful pictures to show for it! She is a wonderful photographer!
