About Me

The Story Behind
the Lens

Photographer portrait

Hello, I'm Sarah

A storyteller at heart, capturing the raw beauty of human connection through my lens for over a decade.

My journey with photography began when I received my grandmother's vintage camera at sixteen. What started as curiosity transformed into an all-consuming passion for freezing moments in time—those fleeting instances of joy, love, and genuine emotion that make life extraordinary.

Based in New York City, I've had the privilege of documenting love stories, family milestones, and personal journeys across the country and beyond. Each session is a unique collaboration, a dance between light, emotion, and the authentic you.

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me exploring hidden coffee shops, getting lost in art galleries, or planning my next adventure with my partner and our rescue dog, Luna.

My Philosophy

Every Frame Tells a Story

I believe the most powerful photographs are born from genuine moments— the quiet glances, the spontaneous laughter, the tender touches that speak volumes without words. My approach is patient and observational, creating a comfortable space where your authentic self can shine through. I don't just take pictures; I capture the essence of who you are.

Authenticity

Real moments, real emotions. No forced poses, just genuine connections.

Light & Warmth

Chasing golden hour and finding beauty in natural, soft illumination.

Timeless

Creating images that transcend trends and remain beautiful for generations.
