My favorite things to photograph
Families & Motherhood
Growing bellies, growing babies, growing kids — and the beautifully ordinary days in between. No perfect behavior required.
Couples
Engagements, anniversaries, proposals, or absolutely no reason at all. Come as you are. I’ll make sure you know what to do with your hands.
Micro Weddings + Elopements
Couples who want the day to feel less like a production and more like them. City hall. Your backyard. A mountain somewhere far away. I’m in.

We had a wonderful couple shoot with Sarah! My boyfriend and I never really get taken any photos together so it was a very new experience for us. Even though I can be quite shy in front of a camera, Sarah managed to make me feel at ease and confident. The photos turned out better than we could‘ve imagined, we were so happy with them that we even decided to make them part of our wedding invitations 🥰

About Sarah
A docu-style photographer
based in Plano, Illinois
I photograph families and couples throughout Yorkville, Oswego, Sandwich, Aurora and the western Chicago suburbs.
Have somewhere farther away in mind?
Even better.
I’ve spent years living and traveling abroad, so whether your story takes us across Illinois or across an ocean, my camera and passport are ready.
My approach is simple: I’ll give you enough direction that you never feel awkward, then leave enough room for the good stuff to happen.
Because twenty years from now, I don’t think you’ll care whether everyone was looking at the camera.
You’ll want to remember what it felt like to carry them, to hold them when they were this little, to be wildly in love, and those first few seconds after saying, “I do.”
