Welcome to my Blog!

I have been a photographer for 9 years now. In those 9 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.

 

Have a great day.

-Sarah

July 2, 2009 - 8:56 pm Alison - Sarah, You did a beautiful job capturing my high school classmate, Meredith Switzer and her husband Paul's wedding. Some of the pictures you took inside my church where the wedding was held are just gorgeous. I love the lighting in the one with Meredith in front of the large window with the "x" pattern on window but they are all wonderful.

Spoiled PUP!

Yesterday I was hard at work in the office. I decided to take a break from the computer and pick up a little around the house. When I walked into our bedroom to put the clean sheets on the bed this is what I found……….Lazy Gus all snuggled up under the covers. Man he has...

October 28, 2008 - 5:44 pm Bridal Lingerie - Congrats!!Wow! I absolutely love your pictures.

I was wondering if someone knew a good place to get bridal lingerie. I found a place called www.DreamDollLingerie.com and I'm about to order something because they had kinds of lingerie.

However, I wanted to check and see if someone has purchased something from them or knows of another place. I know I'm being picky but like all women we want our wedding to be perfect.

November 3, 2008 - 8:20 am Sarah Bussey - Thanks guys! I am pretty excited about it :)
