I had a session yesterday with a fabulous family who’s four month old was way too cute to describe.  I find babies between 2 to 5 months are the most difficult to photograph because they want to move but don’t quite have control over their limbs so arms and legs are flying all over the […]

    awwwww this is so adorable!

  • Nancy - May 31, 2012 - 12:32 pm

    What a sweet little face…

This little guy was so cooperative for the majority of the session.  How gorgeous is he?  After having the chance to spend a few hours with his new loving parents, I could see they are both naturals and so excited to have him finally join their family.  Congratulations Laura and Adam!

    beautiful image. Sara is this on a beanbag chair? how do you get your blanket so smooth ?

  • Sara - April 21, 2012 - 2:06 pm

    Hi Jenny, sorry for the delay…missed this comment. I have the parent pull the blanket tight on the sides and otherwise just make sure it’s smooth

Just a little post to remind me of the gorgeous weather we’ve been experiencing this March break.   Zach, like most 4 year old boys, is in the phony smile phase but at least it’s better than refusing to even look at the camera (ahem…Connor).  These were taken yesterday at the park around the corner.  I […]

  • Mark Keys - March 7, 2012 - 8:50 pm

    a friend posted this on Facebook – really cute photo. Do you use strobe lights or is this just window light?

  • Michael - March 11, 2012 - 12:53 am

    I saw this image on Flickr and came to see your blog. Very nice. Your photography is fantastic but I’d change the background on this blog because I don’t think it matches your logo (sorry, just trying to help).

I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of some fabulous friends of mine back in September so I finally am getting a chance to do a blog post about it.  The day was perfect – gorgeous blue skies, an amazing location, and a small intimate group of their closest friends and family to witness […]

    Sara – you did an amazing job with these photos!! Such a beautiful couple and you really captured their love in each picture. I love the picture on the bottom right – so so cute! The location is really pretty too. You really shined with your photography skills in capturing this special day for your friends.

  • gen - March 2, 2012 - 7:33 am

    Just gorgeous, Sara! Well done!

  • Amanda - March 2, 2012 - 9:36 am

    Such beautiful photos, Sara! We’re thrilled with them. The shoot was so much fun, too. Completed the perfect day. XOXO

  • NANCY - March 3, 2012 - 9:31 am

    Sara- What gorgeous pictures.. you outdid yourself on the wedding shoot.
    I loved all the pictures especially the one where Chad was nuzzling Amanda’s neck (how precious and romantic)..
    The jumping scene and the last one (with bubbles) made everything so magical..
    Amanda looked absolutely beautiful in her wedding gown with knockout blue eyes. I loved the gorgeous flower in Amanda’s hair (what a wonderful idea). Oh yes we can’t forget the groom (laugh), Chad looked so very handsome!!
    Congratulations and I hope you will be very happy….

  • Jason C - March 5, 2012 - 1:32 pm

    love love love! So unique – found you on Pinterest 🙂

Meet Riley.   Gorgeous little blue-eyed blonde who’s currently missing her two front teeth.  Her mom called me to squeeze her in for a short mini-session before her teeth started grow in.  Riley was quite the little model for me and quite willing to give me smiles as long as her bear was close by (see […]

  • Jennifer McCormick - February 9, 2012 - 9:21 pm

    sooo cute!!!! May I ask how you set up the backdrop? (ie. is it wood boards up against a wall?). Thanks 🙂

  • Krista Wallace - February 11, 2012 - 11:12 pm

    lol, these are so cute. I am so going to make sure I get photos done with you when Melissa loses her teeth (the thought never occurred to me before this).
