TALENTED PHOTOGRAPHERS WITH HEARTS OF GOLD

Sarah

Founder + Lead PHOTOGRAPHER

Born on an avocado and citrus grove in Rainbow, California, I knew and felt the element of wonder at a young age. But even though I was surrounded by trees, I had no roots. My father was in the military, and three years was the average stint in most places. Each new locale I approached with a sense of wonder. Enchantment was ever-present. My childhood taught me that life is way too short to sit inside. Life is about exploration and what you find when you step out of your comfort zone. This inherent desire to see new places, meet new people and discover life outside of what I knew lead me to pursue a career in storytelling.

I made my way to Arizona for college, where I studied photojournalism and print journalism. Longing for something new, I parted ways with Arizona, and made my way to the Northeast where I landed a job in Public Relations. Among my client base were photography brands, and through helping these businesses launch campaigns, I realized I could start my own business. Heck, I have now started three.

Today, I finally have roots, and live North of Boston with my love, Eric, our little humans, Luke and Olivia, and nutty pup, Maggie. It’s here where Eric does most of the cooking, and avocados are always on tap.

SHAINA

PHOTOGRAPHER

Honest, emotional images that are reminders of the beautifully fleeting candid moments of a wedding day. This is what drives Shaina. She wants her clients to craft a celebration that is 1000% authentic to them. Her belief is that perfectly posed portraits are boring! Her goal is to work with you to see how you fit together naturally. How you interact with one another. Who are you and what inspires you. Through tapping into your authenticity, Shaina can capture a celebration that looks and feels just like you.

She supports you and your love story, regardless of your age, race, gender, orientation, body size, ability, or identity. Shaina is a LGBTQ+ wedding photographer and specialized in queer weddings.

JESS

PHOTOGRAPHER

A southern gal transplanted in New England, Jess was a theater major at the University of Virginia, and photography quickly became her creative outlet. Her outgoing and uplifting nature allows her to bring people to life in front of the camera!

She loves to travel and experience new places, whether that's a new park around the corner, a road trip to a new state, or a meticulously planned trip to a new country with the chance to experience new cultures and customs. The best part of all is making and capturing new memories.

As a mom to three little ones, her heart is in capturing the legacy of families, starting with engagements! Everyone has a beautiful story that is worth documenting.

KRISTIN

PHOTOGRAPHER

A New Englander through and through, Kristin loves the coast, but feels equally at peace hiking the Green Mountains in mud season.

Her appreciation for photography was born out of the true love for capturing moments of inspiration, joy and love. These moments include the timeless and traditional photos your family proudly hangs on the fridge, but also the unexpected in between glimpses that strung together bring you back to the feeling and place of a memory.

Her approach to photography is to help you feel truly seen and capture the essence of your love - she'd love to connect and help tell your story through imagery with a little soul.

When she is not taking photos, a perfect weekend is discovering a new coffee shop or bookstore, antique hunting, a long bike ride to a familiar place and cooking a big dinner with her family on Sunday.
