Hello and Welcome!

Newport RI Portrait Photographer

 

Hi! I'm Sara. A born and bred Rhode Islander capturing vibrant portraits for fellow island locals and vacationers alike. Years ago, after one semester as a marketing major at the University of Rhode Island, I left school to take my business full-time and I haven't looked back since.

 

 

What clients are saying...

"Sara thank you so much!!! They came out so great and really captured everything I was hoping for! I'm so happy and already looking forward to another session in the future. Both my husband and I are so pleased with the pictures but also you and how you handled the girls for our shoot! We never felt rushed and it was more fun than anything. THANK YOU!"

 

"We are SO thrilled with the engagement pictures Sara took. She is extremely professional and we could not be happier with her work! She was an absolute joy. She was punctual, flexible, and enthusiastic. I recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, professional photos. Thank you Sara!!"

 

"We gave my parents a photo shoot for their 50th wedding anniversary. Sara made a 7 yr-old, a 93 yr.-old, and everyone in between feel comfortable. She made it fun and the photos show that we were relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Sara!"

 

"Sara is an amazing photographer. From our engagement shoot to our day of wedding photography she went above and beyond to make us all feel so comfortable. Not to mention our pictures came out AMAZING. She has pure talent and I highly recommend her! Thanks again Sara for making my wedding day so easy and natural! You rock and I will forever be grateful for the photos you captured from our special day!"

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Sara. A portrait and wedding photographer serving Newport, Rhode Island and beyond. I started my business as a senior in high school and have had my camera by my side ever since. When I'm not in the studio or shooting a session on the beach, I'm usually in one of two modes. If I'm feeling inspired, you can often find me walking Sachuest Point at golden hour, chasing the sunset on Ocean Drive, or at a coffee shop with my notebook in hand dreaming up new ideas. Other times you'll find me parked on my couch, with McDonalds in hand, binge watching The Kardashians. It's all about balance.

 

I'm very easygoing and find the most happiness in simple moments with family and friends. I absolutely love what I do and I feel so very appreciative of every person that steps in front of my camera. I know it can sometimes feel a little nerve wracking to step in front of the camera - my number one goal is to make your session a fun, comfortable, and uplifting experience while capturing beautiful photos that you will look back on for the years to come.
