Eve in Chinatown // San Francisco

Happy Monday to you!

I’m finally back to work after a bit of a break. Our dog is doing much better (thanks to all who asked) and I’m fresh off the heels of attending and speaking at Alt Summit in Salt Lake City. I had a lovely time connecting with some of my favorite people. I wish I had seen some snow in Salt Lake City but there’s always next year.

I also wanted to let you know that our website is officially down until the new site launches – we wanted to give the new site a fresh start. Please contact me via the blog or email until the site goes back up. You can keep in touch on facebook or twitter as well.

In the meantime, here are a few images of Miss Eve in Chinatown. I just adore photographing her and her lovely family.

xoxo,

Sarah

the occassional wedding // Liz & Zach

Hello there!

I thought I’d share a few images of a wedding I shot in 2011. I don’t do weddings all that often – usually just by special request from a family member or an extra special friend. And perhaps because I shoot them so rarely I really fall in love with them. It’s a really challenging but rewarding day from the perspective of a photographer (lots of light and scenarios to master) and most importantly a front-row seat in what is such an important and magical moment in the loves of two people in love.

Here are a few film images from my cousin Liz’s wedding. It was late October and it was the first snow of the season. We were all in disbelief and even though her dreams of an outdoor wedding didn’t happen I think she still had a really gorgeous day. Don’t you?

Enjoy!

Sarah - Thank you Kasandra. I’m so glad you noticed that. I love that as well. These two are so wonderful!

January 5, 2012 - 7:40 pm

Kasandra - i love the picture of them holding hands on the bottom row … his free hand says it all … excitement, nervousness, and anticipation all at the same time … I love weddings. thanks for sharing :)

custom cuddlefish prints // gifts for kids

Hello and Happy New Year to you!

I’ve been out of the studio for a few weeks and excited to get back to work. I’m so thrilled to have a new website and branding in the next month or so. I hope you’ll stay in touch. I’m sharing a bunch of new work with the launch as well. In the meantime, aren’t these prints so sweet? I saw the owner of Cuddlefish Press at the Renegade Craft Fair here in SF before the holidays. These prints are customizable with a baby’s name or another message. I picked one up for my dear niece, Lydia. I can’t wait to see it.
