pretty things, neatly organized, photo shoots with Boon, and more…

Hello out there. What a busy month! I’m currently in Phoenix shooting for a totally awesome kids company, Boon, Inc (more about these guys soon). It’s amazingly hot here but I’m actually enjoying the weather compared to a chilly San Francisco. I’ve been working with such great team at Boon, hanging with a bunch of adorable little ones, and seeing some lovely, modern homes in Phoenix.

welcome baby Whistler, Chicago | modern family photographers

Hello there. I’ve been on the road for a little over a week (apologies if you’re waiting to hear from me). I’ve had a little family time mixed with a few really special shoots. One in particular was baby Whistler in Chicago. Whistler’s parents are dear friends of mine (and the husband) and we have been so happy to welcome him to the world. I can’t wait to share more!

edyta szyszlo photo - love at first sight with that luggage photo!!!

August 7, 2010 - 9:51 am

Sarah - Thanks, Edyta! The luggage was already in Lezlie’s living room. They’ve had those great suitcases for years. I love finding existing props rather than sourcing them for family shoots in particular. ;)

Sarah - Thanks, Kristen! It’s not hard to photograph that family! Great to see you in Chicago!

Lezlie - Sarah your endless energy, boundless creativity and fantastic artistry never cease to amaze us. You went above and beyond to capture the sweetest pictures of Whistler. His worn out parents can not thank you enough!

Sarah - Karla thanks so much for the comment! I’m glad you found me! It’s been so busy over here I wish I could share more on the blog. Hopefully, my time will start to free up a bit. Please stay in touch and thanks again!! S.

Simple. Lovely. Brit & Grant, Santa Barbara | modern portrait photographer, California

I’ve been excited to share this shoot with you for a little while. A few weekends ago I was shooting in Santa Barbara, California. One of my shoots was an incredibly gorgeous, kind-hearted, and talented fellow photographer, named Brit Mann and her charming and helpful photo-assisting husband, Grant. They are expecting the arrival of what-is-sure-to-be an amazingly gorgeous baby girl. I felt really honored to photograph them during such a special time.

scott andrew - Oh my wow. Sarah, these are insanely amazing. I’m seriously in love with this set. The color, light, connection is so rad. Keep up the awesome.

June 9, 2010 - 3:39 pm

Sarah - Scott, thank you so much. That means a lot. I’ve been making a little transition in my shoots, shooting a bit of film and I realized that I’ve slowed down in general which I’ve really enjoyed. Thank you. xo

June 9, 2010 - 4:29 pm

Sarah - Thanks for the comment, Heather. They were so great to photograph. Grant was a GIANT help as well b/c my friend Tara was a bit clueless (sorry Tara) w/ the light discs. ;]

Rachel - Gorgeous photos Sarah!

June 9, 2010 - 6:03 pm

Brit - Is it awkward for you that I’m in love with you for taking such incredible pictures of us? I hope not… =) Thank you again so much Sarah. Thank you!

JodyM - This set has such a sincere/honest feel to them. Love the colors, the light and the couple! The mom honestly looks radiant.

June 9, 2010 - 7:02 pm

Brit - The dress IS from Anthro, and all I did was move up a button on the halter to allow the midsection seam to sit above my belly. Thanks for the compliment Jody!

June 10, 2010 - 8:17 am

tara - Oh man. I knew these were going to be beautiful, but honestly they’ve taken my breath away. Thanks for letting me help out for the day and meet this truly amazing couple (even though my light disc skills are sub-par, I am a primo location picker, right?).

June 10, 2010 - 8:22 am

Sarah - you’re an awesome location scout, Tara! I didn’t mean to turn you in on the light discs. Anyway you weren’t bad at all. Grant was just WAY better! ;]

June 10, 2010 - 8:49 am

Emily - Every single shot is perfect and beautiful! You are an amazing photographer and I’m so glad Brit will have these pics forever. (B’s one of my best frineds btw)

katie - Brit… you look amazing. So fun to see you huge like that. It is so fun to watch you go through this and I am so happy for you both. Awesome pics… She captured you both beautifully! What a treasure. Love you guys, your favorite cousin, Katie.
