We honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about Sara and her work. From our very first phone call, her positivity and genuine enthusiasm stood out, but even that didn’t prepare us for how incredible she was on our wedding day.
She arrived early, made sure everything aligned with our vision, and captured every moment beautifully while remaining in the background and completely unobtrusive. We were able to enjoy our day fully, knowing she had everything handled.
But what truly set her apart was her attitude. She was endlessly positive, warm, and so easy to be around, blending perfectly with the vibe of our ceremony. It was clear she genuinely enjoyed being part of our day, and that energy brought out the best in us, especially during our sunset photos.
And the photos… wow! They are stunning, as in magazine-cover level gorgeous. We’re still blown away every time we look at them.
A Love Note...

She has such a bright and loving personality.
Sara took the time WHILE IT WAS RAINING to make sure our pictures were absolutely perfect in all the ways imaginable. She truly has a special eye and captured the most beautiful pictures in places that you wouldn’t even think would be good photo spots.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Coming to Southwest Florida together but not getting married this trip?
I photograph couples, anniversaries and engagements, too. Same beautiful light, relaxed direction and connection-focused portraits — minus the vows.

Next question
No. I specialize in intimate elopements centered around the ceremony and portraits that follow. If you're looking for getting-ready coverage, a reception, dancing, or an eight-hour wedding timeline, I'm probably not your photographer — and that's completely intentional.
My elopements are for couples who want to keep the wedding simple and make the photographs one of the best parts of it.
do you photograph all day weddings?
Next question
My elopements are intentionally small, with collections designed for celebrations of up to 20 guests. If you're planning something larger, reach out and tell me what you have in mind so I can let you know whether it's a fit.
how many guests can i invite?
Next question
Absolutely. While I'm not a wedding planner or coordinator, I can guide you through the photography side of choosing a location, including lighting, timing, beach access and what will photograph best.
can you help us choose a location?
Next question
My coverage is intentionally built around the ceremony and portraits rather than a traditional wedding-day timeline.
Depending on your collection, we'll photograph your ceremony, the people you've brought along, and plenty of time for portraits of the two of you afterward.
how much of the day do you photograph?
Next question
Yes. If Southwest Florida is already part of your trip, we can build your photography around an intimate ceremony and beautiful portraits while still leaving plenty of room to enjoy the rest of your time here.
Whether it’s just the two of you or you’re celebrating with a small group of your favorite people, we’ll plan the photography around the kind of day you’re envisioning.
