elopement and wedding pricing  

So you found your favorite person and are ready to have your love story sealed in photographs?

Hell Yeah!

By now, I’m sure you’ve discovered that you want your photos to be in gorgeous settings and full of feeling, but not sure how to fit everything in while actually enjoying the process and being present during the day.

Let me be your guide.

Hi, I’m Sarah,

I’m your resident Northern Michigan lover and adventure photographer. And I’m seriously doing a dorky happy dance, because something in my photography resonated with you. I always have my favorite locations saved, and genuinely love that I’m able to live my daydream, and connect with adventurous souls through my work.

I’m not afraid to run or climb to get the best angle, get into the water, or spend the extra time it takes to create photographs that tell your story. Whether you’re having an intimate ceremony on the lakeshore, or throwing a wild dance party in an orchard, I’ll document your connection and intimacy while having a hell of a good time!

“Sarah is an amazing photographer!! She was super friendly and easygoing, which made my fiancé/myself feel very comfortable at our engagement shoot. She worked with me on finding the perfect location for the type of vibe we were going for and she had lots of suggestions for cool places! She knows the area really well which was super helpful. We were blown away with how our pictures came out and cannot stop looking at them. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”

That’s why I also send a travel guide, so you don’t have to spend extra time on google or looking for the best beer in town. I want you to be free of stress and just focus on your time here.
