I am a wedding, engagement, and anniversary photographer happily based outside of Philadelphia who is drawn to capturing photos that are light-filled, natural, soft, and emotional. I am always ready to photograph couples in love in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland and everywhere in between. No matter where your moments happen, I am forever inspired by the story they tell about you and the love you share together. 

Hello there! I'm Sarah, your new photographer, best friend and taco enthusiast.

Behind the Camera

I believe estates, private homes, and wineries create some of the best backdrops for wedding days, and you will always find me chasing natural light. I love romantic, outdoor soirees, neutral and pastel color palettes, and exquisite details and florals. My favorite moments to capture are always the candid ones where you’re lost in the moment you’re sharing together, and you forget I’m even there. I’m down-to-earth and always ready for an adventure, and I love photographing couples, no matter where the celebration takes place, who are as excited to celebrate their wedding day with their family and friends as they are about embarking on their greatest journey yet – marriage.  

From the moment we meet, I hope we feel like instant friends. Don’t be surprised when I’m not a stranger throughout your wedding planning journey. I want to hear about your engagement, I want to serve you best so you can leave your stress behind, and I want you to feel as though you have gained a new family member (me!) as your wedding day comes to a close. Most of all, I really want to continue to cheer you on in your marriage and always celebrate together with tacos and margaritas. 

Let’s capture your moments so they become your favorite, forever memories. 

I am happiest when I am surrounded by my people! I love a good girls night or a Sunday family dinner and I'm a dog momma to my Frenchie, Murphy.

Blush pairs well with nearly every color palette, so it was obviously always meant to be a neutral.

On a date, with friends, by yourself – Mexican food is always the answer, and it’s always a good idea.
