3 Reasons Why Clients Choose My Services :

  • This may be your first portrait session and you may have some hesitations: What if I want an in-home session but my house isn’t fitting? What if my kids don’t cooperate? What if I don’t have the flexibility?

    I prioritize connecting with all clients prior to booking to make sure I can learn and address your needs.

  • You are tired of playing phone tag with your previous service provider just to get some questions answered. Say hello to a streamlined experience and 24hr access to our own communications platform, so we stay connected from day of booking to make sure we arrive to our session, stress-free and ready to make happy memories.

  • Did you know that viewing art releases dopamine, lowers mental exhaustion and increases creativity and imagination? The end of your session should not be a simple link to your final gallery.

    To optimize your viewing experience, I offer a Viewing Appointment via Zoom, where we all grab a drink of choice and watch a tailor-made presentation of your images. You also receive a walk-through on keepsake options so your images don’t remain trapped in your screen.

  • "I was nervous before our session because we’re just not “picture people” and I wasn’t sure how it would go…"

    But you walked me through the whole process and I remember you saying that it would just be a day of hanging out, feeling candid, and it definitely felt that way. It felt so warm and was such a sweet time hanging out with my family and you played such a big part in that.

A Memorable and Easy Process

  • Inquiry & Booking

    After your inquiry, you will have access to an investment guide and schedule to book a discovery call. During the call, I aim to understand your needs and envision steps to our ideal session. When you are ready to book, we secure your date with a booking fee and a signed contract.

  • Connection & Guide

    My priority is to set you up for success. You receive access to several guides that answer frequently asked questions ie. wardrobe harmony, how to prepare your children (or husbands!), examples of prompts and mindfulness activities with your family. I am available via our communications platform to connect with you at any point.

  • Session & Gallery

    We’ve done all the prep (mentally and logistically), so alls we have to do is show up and have fun! After 2 weeks, you will receive a scheduler to book our Viewing Appointment. Grab your drink of choice, make intentional space with your loved ones and allow me to guide your gallery viewing experience to involve all your senses. This is usually everyone’s favorite (at times emotional) part of the client experience as we see our family from each other’s perspective.

    About 2 weeks after your session, you will receive a scheduler to book a Viewing Appointment - a 30 minute zoom meeting of uninterrupted time with your loved ones. I want to provide you with the most optimal presentation of your images through this time. Grab your favorite drinks, a bowl of popcorn and and maybe a box of tissues, too!

  • "I was worried that I would feel stressed in the moment..."

    …but my experience was the total opposite! Sarah stopped me every few minutes to direct and talk through what I wanted. My past experiences left me feeling like I didn’t get all the photos I wanted, so I really appreciated this about her. She really made the experience feel calm and we ended up having plenty of time to capture all the photos I was hoping for AND MORE.
