“We were so lucky to have Sarah capture our special day. Sarah goes above and beyond what would be expected and seems to tailor exactly what you are after in a photography capacity. We had a very low key wedding and didn't really want the traditional styled photos. Sarah hit the nail on the head, she was extremely discreet and managed to capture beautiful candid moments without any intrusion. Above it all though was Sarah's calm positivity and fabulous attitude that remains in our thoughts.”

“I was lucky enough to stumble upon the most wonderful photographer in Sydney, who agreed to do a random shoot on a tiny little beach for our honeymoon! It's so special to have such beautiful photos from this trip to offset the hundreds of selfies we took. Sarah was such a dream to work with. She scoped out multiple locations, gave us lots of other travel recommendations, and really captured some beautiful shots of us soaking up the honeymoon vibes.”

“From the beginning, Sarah was always responsive to all my questions and was proactive in giving us location suggestions as well as understanding what the vision was for our shoot. On the day of the shoot, Sarah made us feel SO comfortable in front of the camera and did an amazing job directing us when we needed some help. I actually had fun being in front of the camera and that was the most comfortable experience I’ve had! We've just received our gallery and we’re so in love with these photos!”
