Pristine quality

Sarah was very friendly from our first call with her. This extended throughout the whole process. We were able to schedule engagement photos promptly and they turned out amazing. She provided enough guidance for us to get exactly what we wanted for them. Then for the wedding she was communicative and responsive to figure out exactly what we wanted beforehand. Then when things changed in person (as they always inevitably do) she was patient and professional as we moved from a planned spot to a different spot during the wedding. We had multiple unprompted comments about how friendly Sarah and the other photographers were. The photos looked amazing and the prints came in good condition and in a prompt manner

Sarah Grider

Owner

My name is Sarah and I have been photographing weddings for over 15 years. I enjoy all aspects of wedding photography and taking the journey that starts with meeting my couple. When I began with photography, I tried all kinds but when I found wedding photography I was hooked! My business has grown over the years and I'm proud of it. My husband also shoots and it's so fun to be at a wedding together shooting. We have two beautiful children who are happy when I'm photographing a wedding because it means I'm not photographing them, which I of course love to do too!

well to us running behind schedule, reminded us on different photos we wanted so we got everything we wanted(sprinkler exit shot). I do wish we had gotten more group photo shots of our guests but we didn't ask for it specifically so I'd be specific about what you want and she'll deliver. Our photos came out beautiful, we'd highly recommend Sarah!

. My actual photographer for the day was Sara on her team. She was phenomenal. She helped me keep things moving, get all the pictures we wanted, and stay on the timeline. Even when I got a little hangry she continued to support me. This team that had my back through the entire planning process and beyond was absolutely worth every penny I spent. I couldn’t recommend them more.

w her which was great. Anytime I had questions prior to the wedding, she was quick to respond and very helpful. We did a final zoom meeting a couple weeks out to confirm the timeline and photos we wanted. On the day of the wedding, Sarah and Brian were wonderful to work with. They got all the photo combinations we had requested and a ton more staged and action photos. It’s only been 3 days and we already got a sneak peak from her! They are so kind and easy to work with. I would 100% recommend them!

I am so glad that we hired Sarah Grider Photography and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Working with Sarah and her team was a highlight of wedding planning! When we first met her for our engagement shoot, she made my fiancé and I feel comfortable and kept us laughing ...

the whole time. Not only did she encourage our dog Rosie to participate in our engagement and wedding photos, but Rosie stole the show! The photos with her are adorable! Sarah's communication is top notch - she makes you feel like you are the only couple she is working with in any given moment, was quick to respond to emails, and frequently would shoot me a text to check-in or see how things were going. On the wedding day, Sarah and her second shooter, Jeff, were quick, efficient and kept us on time. She helped us get all the photos we wanted (even braving snowflakes in April for some amazing shots near the Roebling bridge). I'm so glad I chose her and her team as our wedding photographer!

thought we would. We also used John for videography services and the video they came back with was amazing but was missing a few things I was hoping would be included. Sarah and John were amazing addressing the concern and getting us those missing moments. Definitely amazing people and an amazing company with gorgeous results. Sarah has also done 2 of my friends weddings and she did amazing work for them as well

cared so much about us getting the best photos for the wedding that it was truly an experience to work with her. She treats everyone like family and we wish we could hire her all over again. We can’t recommend her enough to future brides and grooms- you wouldn’t regret it at all.

rough the months of preparation, Sarah quickly became our go to for other needs outside of photography. Her attention to detail coupled with her easy going attitude made her a pleasure to work with.

Sarah did such a wonderful job for our wedding in December. I planned the whole thing from out of town and she was so easy to work with from afar. We were able to meet up in person...

several months before the wedding to kind of get our ideas together. We communicated via email and Sarah was always quick to respond and very enthusiastic. On the wedding day she was on time, patient with us, and had her own great ideas ready for us so we didn't have to think about anything. She was professional, pleasant, and so sweet. I was worried about the dim lighting in the venue, but the pictures we have seen look perfect. We have seen a few preview photos and we cannot wait to get the rest back! She made us feel comfortable all day, as sometimes professional pictures can be a bit awkward. Jeff was the second shooter and he was fabulous as well. Thank you Sarah!

camera, even if you are "new" to taking photos. We had our dog in our engagement photos and our wedding photos. She is wild and wiggly, so it was difficult, but Sarah gave us beautiful photos with our pup. She know how to work the natural light and give you a huge variety of shots. We highly recommend her!

nt were great extremely kind and helpful! We got our pictures back exterenly fast compared to most wedding photos! Aquarium lighting is a nightmare to work for photos but Sarah captured amazing photos and you wouldn’t have any idea it’s so dark in there!! There isn’t one single picture we aren’t in love with she caught so many perfect candid shots that were amazing and somehow managed to get great pictures of our 5 boys and they all were smiling which is an impossible task! We highly recommend Sarah Grider Photography for any event or photos needed! We can’t say enough positive things about our experience!! Thank you Sarah for the life long memories and great experience!!!

husband Brian come out and do our wedding pictures as well. Our previews were amazing and we look forward to the rest of our gorgeous pictures soon. Sarah is always fun and easy to work with and gets such beautiful shots, and really knows how to relax everyone who is involved in the pictures so they don't come off as stiff. We would recommend Sarah and Brian to anyone looking for amazing photographs at a great price, and we definitely look forward to working with Sarah again for all our future family photos as we grow to start our own family!
