I first picked up my camera during the COVID-19 pandemic, photographing my kids on our outdoor adventures around the area. Before long, I realized how much I loved capturing those genuine, in-between moments for other families too.
Now, as a dedicated portrait photographer, I focus on creating relaxed, joyful sessions where real connections shine through. I’m a one-person business, so you’ll work with me from start to finish—someone who truly cares about your experience and the memories we create together.
I get genuinely excited for every session and approach each one as a chance to create meaningful artwork of your family. If you’re looking for natural, heartfelt portraits, I’d love to help tell your story.

so happy that I contacted Sara. I wanted a photo shoot to celebrate our 35th anniversary while we were on vacation in Colorado. The location she suggested, the poses, the quick turnover was perfect. I will treasure these photographs forever. I can not stress enough how wonderful this whole tranaction was from the first conversation to the end results.

Sara was so easy to work with. She is great at communication. She responded to me very quickly. Her work is also beautiful. My 2 year old wasn’t into taking pictures but she still caught some great moments and the pictures came out lovely for maternity/family pictures. With newborn pictures, she was so patient and sweet with my baby. Also the quality of work is great. She’s a great photographer and also easy to talk to which makes taking pictures more comfortable for everyone. I would highly recommend her!

Gallery & Image Delivery
After your session, I carefully edit the best images and present them in a private online gallery. From there, you’ll select the photos included with your session package. If you fall in love with the entire gallery and can’t choose, the full collection is available for an additional investment.
Your chosen images will be delivered as a downloadable ZIP file. Once received, they are yours to keep, print, and share however you wish.
