Hello!

I'm Sarah, an adventurous natural light portrait and fashion photographer. (What a mouthful!) I'm based in the Oakland, serving the greater San Francisco Bay Area, but am always looking for opportunities to go elsewhere! I thrive in creative and intimate sessions that take us to the bottom of waterfalls or stretches of endless desert. I'm inspired by you, your vision, and your authentic moments. I want to do whatever I can to make your wildest dreams come true. I will run up the side of a mountain to chase the last light, get soaked in the Pacific Ocean for the happiest moments, and chat with you for hours to get to know each other.

I photograph weddings, elopements, engagements, seniors, families, and fashion/editorial. I want to customize any session to you, whether it's a private estate wedding or an elopement in the mountains. I will capture your most important moments and create meaningful stories. I'm also passionate about fashion and editorial with a retro note. I get excited about classic cars and vintage spots like pink diners or drive-in movies. If any combination of the two excite you, then we're probably a match made in heaven!

Whether you're a bride entrusting me with your special day or a brand looking to create captivating content, get in touch and let's get shooting.
