Sarah Eichstedt Photography

I've had the pleasure of partnering with Sarah multiple times on wedding and editorial photography as a fellow wedding professional. As a person, Sarah is truly a gem and such a joy to work with. She radiates positive energy, genuinely cares, and makes the entire process of working together feel so easy. As a photographer, her work constantly blows me away. Every project we've done together has exceeded all expectations I had. As a floral designer, photographers who understand how to showcase my work is critical for business. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again and again, and recommend her to anyone.

Loved working with Sarah. She spent the time to meet with us and scout out locations with good light, strategize the best timing for the pictures, and more. She's delightful to work with, patient, super personable, and makes you feel super comfortable and at ease. Our pictures turned out wonderful and she overdelivered on the quality, speed, and quantity. They captured the magic of the moment and our joy so well. My husband and I truly felt lucky having her as our photographer and would happily recommend her to anyone.

Sarah from the Groom’s POV. This is honestly the only review you will have to read. I will share our experience which will be interweaved with topics such as; professionalism, quality of work, finances, and her personality. You will quickly get the sense that our experience with her was a great one. Quick note: The first step for a success relationship with your photographer falls on YOU, the consumer. MAKE SURE YOU HIRE SOMEONE WITH THE PHOTO STYLE (filters, angles, expression, etc.) YOU WANT. Sarah’s style was exactly what my wife and I were looking for. That said… Our experience: Amidst one of those stressful wedding research nights my wife stumbled across Sarah’s work when she was scrolling through -------. She was a part of a list of 3 photographers whose style we liked. As we got in contact with them, Sarah was the most respectful, diligent, and honest of the bunch. It began with an initial phone interview (we were going to school out of state at the time) to get an understanding of all of our needs, wishes, and personalities. Upon knowing that she was capable of meeting our needs, willing to achieve our wishes, and that our personalities mixed she offered to provide her services at her rate and we gladly agreed. Our first personal encounter was for our engagement shoot. Before we saw her we told her “we want some of those cool, bad@ss, sexy, I am better than you but still humble pictures” and I special requested for her to take a creative leap she has been wanting to take but never had the opportunity. Without hesitation she was on board and ready with several ideas and guidance (the tangible kind, not the wimpy suggestion ones). At the shoot, my wife and I were a little nervous and camera shy in the beginning, not to mention facing some weather adversity, but Sarah made us feel comfortable, not only with her, the camera, and the weather but even more as a couple in the spotlight. Wedding day: (Pre-ceremony) She arrived early to the hotel we were staying at in the middle of SF and made her way to our separate locations to say hello and introduce her assistant. Appreciated. Both ladies worked seamlessly and were able to mix in well with our guests, keeping everyone excited, feeling comfortable, and even provided some attention to detail with my groomsmen. (Ceremony) As if they were not even there. Respectful to the location we were in, quite for the ceremony, and very attentive with the desired angles. (Post-ceremony) Coordinated very professionally with our videographers to keep up the excitement, genuine moments, and flowing creativity. And when needed, she became our advocate to help us stay grounded amidst all that was happening. (Reception) It is what it is, those billion family pictures had to be taken and she helped us execute that mission. Helped us move away from the talkative ones and let us spend more time with the treasured ones. Once all of the formalities were done and all of our needs and wishes were met, she very respectfully let us know it was her time to go. The final products: In about a week she sent us an email with a magical link to some of our photos from throughout the day to start sharing and later provided the entire package. Her delivery method is very professional, organized, and has an easy to use interface. She then surprised us with one final gift at the very end that made everything really sink in and feel very personal. I hope if you read this you will get to experience that.
