Welcome to my Blog!

Welcome to my blog!  I have been a photographer for 7 years now. In those 7 years I have learned so much and grown both professionally and personally. Each new life experience brings me a new way to approach my photography. I used to say my passion was animals.  I still adore animals.  Pets make life so fun and their unconditional love is something I can't do without.

Recently my life has come to a new place.  Last June my husband  I  lost our first child, Mamie.  She was born a sleeping angel when I was 37 1/2 weeks pregnant.  This great loss has brought me a new perspective on life which has spilled over into all aspects of who I am.  I look at each day, each experience, with new eyes.  Mamie is our child whether she is here on this earth or not, so please feel free to ask me about her.  Just as you like to talk about your little ones, I love to talk about Mamie.  If you are interested in her story you can link to my Poppy Seed Blog.  It's all about Mamie and the process I have gone through during my happy and easy pregnancy to the place I am now as a grieving mother who is carrying on in honor of my child.  

I approach my work differently because of my new perspective.  I look for the unique parts of each idividual and their situation and do my best to capture that.  I love working with couples who are so in love they can't see straight and newborn babies whose parents are so in love THEY can't see straight, or little kids as they play with their favorite toy or pet or as they read their favorite book.  It all makes my heart swell.  It is life.  Each new moment in life is what we make it and I want to take it all in.  I want to document the most special days and the most ordinary because they are all priceless.

All sessions are photographed on location in order for me to capture life as it happens most comfortably for my clients.  I encourage you to just be yourself and allow your little ones to do the same.  It will be a fun experience and create images that will be most uniquely you.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I thoroughly enjoy to work so there's always something new to see here.  Scroll down to see my latest work.  Come back often :-).  And, I love comments so let me know what you think!  Have a great day.

Brooklyn

I absolutely love getting to see old wedding clients once they have had a baby.  I got to meet adorable little Brooklyn right before the 4th.  I had so much fun catching up with her mom and dad and photographing her sweet face.  This post is long overdue.

Enjoy!

Anna Cay {Little Rock, Arkansas Children’s Photographer}

I got to photograph the cutest little girl a few weeks back.  Anna Cay was a little shy when I got there but she warmed up pretty quick.  We spent some time in her room.  She is taking guitar lessons and has the most awesome red electric guitar.  It was a joy to spend the morning with her.  Enjoy

Tommy & Mary Kate are married {Little Rock, Arkansas wedding photographer}

I am thrilled to be sharing the beautiful wedding of Tommy and Mary Kate today.  We have been super busy here at Sarah Bussey Photography but I know it was well worth the wait for you guys.  Mary Kate and Tommy have such a special relationship.  His mother and MK’s mother were best friends and roommates back in college.  MK moved to New York a few years back where she and Tommy met and fell in love.  They are an adorable couple.  The way Tommy looks at Mary Kate you can just see the love.  I had a wonderful time working with both the couple and their families.  It was such a lovely day.

Congratulations guys!  I wish you all the best.

You are a very talented photographer and my expectations have been surpassed once again. Great Job! You have captured the most important day in MK's and my life with creativity, comedy, and eloquence. You have true talent and your work exemplifies why you are one of the best in the industry. All the Best, The New Mr. & Mrs. Tommy Swanhaus

Alivia {Fayetteville, Arkansas Baby Photographer}

Our good friends, Ashley and Dustin came to visit the other weekend with their adorable baby Alivia.  It was so great to see them and have a full weekend to love on that precious baby.  We took some pictures before they went home.  I can’t believe how much she has grown since the last time I saw her.

This first picture cracks me up.  Not kidding, Alivia stayed in this amazing yoga position for almost a full minute…. maybe even longer!  We were all laughing so hard.  She is going to have some killer abs.  Here she is!

Witt & Thomas {Little Rock, Arkansas Children’s Photographer}

I have been photographing these 2 adorable little boys since they were babies.  They both have grown so much and are full of personality.  They showed me all of their veggies in the garden along with a few bugs and worms :)  It was a steamy morning so, to the pool we went.  Hope you guys love the pictures as much as I do.   I thought it would be a great way to start the 4th weekend.  :)
