Dear Reader,

Hello, my name is Sarah :-)

First off let me start by saying that I am indeed, fortunate…

…Fortunate to be given the chance to do the job I’ve always dreamed of doing.

I am captivated by love, enchanted by Paris, charmed by old vintage things, comforted by coffee, refreshed by rain, inspired by creativity, and quite simply in love with photography.

Running, cappuccinos, deep blue sapphires, Anthropologie, beautiful trees, sand under my toes, finding an antique camera to add to my collection, my miniature Dachshund Judy and road trips with friends are some of the things that make my heart happy.

I am always pushing myself, reaching and striving to be an artisan of my work. Rather than my camera, I consider soft natural light, effortless posing and the chemistry between my clients and I to be the most important tools I wield to produce my style of portraiture and photography.

I live for the details! Whimsical stories behind a piece of your wedding day jewelry or the history of a pocket watch are the tales I love to hear and then retell with my camera. Rich vibrant colors, clever details and a wedding day full of emotion and excitement make my job easy.

If I’m given the honor of being present whether near or far to suspend in time those moments you will hold dear, then I thank you.

Cam + Alissa {engaged}

I had the pleasure of photographing these two cuties on July 4th, promptly after announcing their engagement a week before while on vacation here in CA visiting friends and family. I have had the good fortune of knowing Cam and his family for many years so it was a joy to meet the darling Florida native Alissa, and to have the honor of being able to capture their obvious happiness on camera : )

Besides the fact that they both have *awesome* hair, these two were fun to photograph and sweet together.

Congrats you two!

Here are a few pictures from there mini engagement session that took place in and around Half Moon Bay, CA.

Enjoy!
