„I would give Sarah 10 stars if I could. She is talented, patient, personable and very easy to work with. Sarah’s photography style is so vintage and timeless. I never imagined they would turn out as perfect and beautiful as they did. Can’t recommend her enough!”

Hi, I’m Sarah!
Your Elopement Photographer, Storyteller & Planning Consultant
Can I tell you a secret? I’ve photographed over 100 weddings, but I’ve never been married myself – even though I’ve been with my fiancé for 16 years and happily engaged for five. What’s holding us back? The pressure to plan a big, traditional wedding. And the struggle to find the right photographer.
We’ve solved the first problem: the answer is an Elopement – a stress-free, intimate celebration, just the two of us, in a place that feels meaningful. But the second? That’s still a work in progress. I’m not just looking for someone to snap photos – I’m looking for someone who creates art, images that feel like they’re straight out of a movie. Someone who truly cares, who sees us as more than just a client. Someone who can tell our story in a way that feels authentic, timeless, and as special as our connection. Because what is a wedding if not a collection of scenes and stories?
I’ve always been fascinated by stories – from childhood favorites like The Never Ending Story to epic movies like Titanic and Interstellar. They’re about capturing a feeling, not just something happening – a bigger meaning. That’s why I studied photography and filmmaking, and it shines through in every aspect of my work: cinematic storytelling with a touch of nostalgia through analog film, Super 8, or Polaroids, combined with my personalized planning support and my ability to make you feel at ease and truly enjoy your wedding day.
I want to give you what I’ve struggled to find: a stress-free elopement, free from traditions and expectations, and someone who is eager to tell your story in a timeless, cinematic way – images you’ll cherish forever.
What makes me different
• Cinematic storytelling with a touch of nostalgia: Drawing inspiration from shows and movies, I don’t just take photos – I create timeless, artistic images that feel like a beautiful escape into your happiest memories.
• Authentic, natural moments – no stiff poses: My photos are a mix of documentary-style storytelling and creatively guided moments (when needed). I’ll never ask you to strike awkward or unnatural poses. Instead, I focus on capturing real emotions, genuine connections, and the little in-between moments that make your day uniquely yours. It’s the perfect blend of candid and creative.
• Personalized, stress-free support: From planning to execution, I’m there every step of the way to ensure your day is as unique and stress-free as possible. With years of experience, I’ll help you plan ahead so you can focus on what truly matters – celebrating your love.
• Analog techniques: Film photography, Super 8, and Polaroids add a unique, nostalgic touch to your elopement memories. Film is timeless, creating images that will beautifully transport you back to your wedding day, even 30 or 40 years from now.
• Empathy and understanding: I’ve been in your shoes (and still am), and I know how important it is to create an elopement that feels true to you - free from stress, traditions, and expectations. I understand the challenges of wanting to celebrate your love in a way that’s deeply personal, while also navigating the fear of disappointing others or feeling like your day doesn’t reflect who you are. I know the struggle of wanting to include family or close friends, but worrying it might feel awkward, forced, or take away from the intimacy of your connection. I’m here to help you find the perfect balance - whether it’s just the two of you or a small group of loved ones - so your elopement feels authentic, meaningful, and uniquely yours.
“We are absolutely speechless. Your photos are beyond beautiful. You captured us so authentically - 100% real, not staged. Every time we look at the photos, we’re transported back to that magical day. You’ve turned our vision into reality and exceeded all our expectations. Thank you for creating memories we’ll cherish forever. The way you told our story through your lens is surreal.”
– N. + M.
“Like a friend who happens to have a camera”
More than just your photographer – I’m here to be your guide, your supporter, and your biggest cheerleader!
I know how overwhelming planning an elopement can feel, especially when you’re trying to create a day that’s true to who you are. That’s why I’m not just here to take photos – I’m here to take the stress off your shoulders, help you navigate the details, and make sure your day feels as joyful, intimate, and authentic as you’ve always dreamed.
Think of me as a friend who happens to have a camera – someone who’s there to laugh with you, calm your nerves, and remind you to soak in every moment. From helping you find the perfect location to suggesting meaningful activities that reflect your love story, I’ll be by your side every step of the way. Together, we’ll create an elopement that’s not just beautiful, but deeply meaningful and uniquely yours.

"We are absolutely speechless. We already had an idea of what to expect from the preview, but this... wow! We’re at a loss for words. We took almost an hour to look at every single photo—we laughed, we cried, and we could vividly remember the moment each photo was taken. This is exactly how we imagined it! Thank you, thank you, thank you for capturing our day in such incredibly beautiful photos. We are absolutely speechless. Both the photos from the ceremony and the ones at the Ruin Theater—it was all worth it, despite the dirt and the cold. Just wow. You are truly amazing. Thank you so, so much!"

"Sarah was amazing with the whole process. We had great communication from the very beginning, and during the photoshoot, she made us feel comfortable even though we’d never had a couple’s photoshoot before.It is honestly hard to choose our favorite photos because there are just so many. We’ve gotten so many compliments on the photos looking like they’re something out of a movie. We love them so much! Thank you so much, Sarah. You gave us some magic we will always keep with us from our special day."

“What if our families are disappointed that we’re eloping?”
I get it. Elopements are still new to many and it’s natural to worry about how your families will react. But here’s the truth: your wedding day should be about you and your love story - not about meeting expectations or pleasing everyone else.
Eloping doesn’t mean excluding your loved ones. It’s about creating an intimate, stress-free celebration that feels true to you. You can still honor your families in meaningful ways, like sharing your vows privately and celebrating with them later, calling them right after, or including them in the planning process.
Remember: An elopement allows you to create a day that’s deeply personal and authentic, free from stress and traditions that don’t resonate with you.
At the end of the day, your families want you to be happy. And when they see the joy and authenticity in your photos, they’ll understand why you chose to celebrate your love in a way that’s uniquely yours.

“I am absolutely speechless! I couldn’t reach out yesterday because I was so overwhelmed with emotion. A mix of pure happiness, a little sadness that the elopement day is over, and disbelief at how stunning these photos are - it’s a whirlwind of feelings. From the first double exposure in the slideshow, I was completely blown away. The effort you put into this, even the way the slideshow was structured, is incredible.
These photos are breathtaking! You captured us so authentically - 100% real, not staged. You’ve turned the vision in my head into reality, exceeding it by far. Max even joked, ‘I won’t see you for weeks,’ because I kept sneaking back to look at the photos! And though he never likes pictures of himself, he was moved too and thought he looked great.
I’m endlessly grateful for the effort, time, and thought you put into this. You have an incredible talent, and I’m blown away by what you’ve created. Everything about these photos is perfect—the colors, the angles, the black-and-white shots, the blurry ones. It’s all flawless.
Thank you for being part of our wedding memories. This whole experience with you has been so easy and uncomplicated, and I’m thrilled you’ll be at our civil ceremony too.
