About

Moment Driven. Timeless. Joy-filled.

We are Sarah (Lockhart) + Tim (Ryon) A husband and wife run company specializing in wedding and lifestyle photography since 2011. We met at a photo production studio in 2008, moved in together less than 6 months later (much to our parents chagrin- sorry, guys!) and never, ever looked back. Sarah is our lead photographer, and Tim runs the crucial behind-the-scenes work that ensures everyone has the seamless experience our clients have come to know and love over the years! We firmly believe love is love, Black Lives Matter, climate change is real, and it’s totally acceptable to hug someone upon meeting them.

This isn’t just a job for us! Being invited to document such a significant and personal life event is a privilege we can’t fully describe. We approach your day with a sense of photojournalism and an eye for the artful details and thoughtful touches that are meaningful to you as a couple. On your wedding day, we are a calm, reassuring presence for you. Since each wedding/session is so different, we are experts at reading the room, the mood, and the emotions, so that each photo is a beautiful reflection of your love, relationship and community. We feel so damn lucky to do what we do and can't wait to work with you!!

Ryon/lockhart⠹s photography work is breathtaking!

Wedding planning can be a bit stressful and overwhelming, especially when finding a photographer. I’m here to tell you first hand– there is no need to look any further. Sarah will capture your special day through the artistry that is her camera.

Living in NYC and having our wedding in Brooklyn, we KNEW we wanted a NY city photographer. That's about all we knew. When we saw Sarah’s work through her socials, we felt all the vibes. It was a match made in heaven and we had no idea just how flawless, classy, professional and stylish these photos would be!

WEDDING DAY
Sarah and Mira worked their magic all morning into the night. They were also really friendly and awesome people to work with. Your wedding day can go by fast, and there is a lot to think about (or not think about) that can escape you. Our pictures were the easiest thing about our wedding day. They took the lead and knew the territory for the best picture opps. No detail was left uncaptured, as they knew every inch of the venue and decor as well! They knew who the important people were and really worked the room, the people, and most importantly always circled back to us for more pictures as ideas came to them.

THE PICTURES
A simple WOW, JUST WOW is all that is needed to describe our final pictures. Seriously, we were left speechless and have had endless compliments from our family and guests about the composition. Without listing all the things that can be captured in a wedding, Sarah and team of course captures all that. But that’s merely the tip of her work. To me, the pictures told a story. There were many photos that you can literally put in a magazine, but it was the unique and stylish photos of us, the venues, and candids that we will cherish FOREVER. They captured all the moments and all the people from morning to midnight.

If you want your wedding story to be told and captured through the lens. If you want high quality, professionally edited pictures, unmatched point of view, and an overall great person and team… Ryon/Lockhart Photography is the easiest decision you will make for your wedding day. We were referred by two friends and we will recommend her to anyone!

Best day ever

Choosing Ryon Lockhart Photography to be a part of our wedding was truly one of the easiest decisions we made. Sarah and I instantly connected and I knew immediately she was going to be the one to capture our day and make our vision come alive. And she did just that! Not only on our wedding day, but at our engagement shoot as well. Our photos came out ABSOLUTELY STUNNING and we couldn’t be happier with them. Everyone was asking me how I found such a calm, easygoing and professional photographer because they were just as impressed as we originally were. I promise you will not be disappointed in the quality of her work and the genuine love she has for her profession.

Best of the best

Sarah is an absolute gem. She immediately put us at ease on our intro phone call, and we loved our day with her taking the engagement shoot! Leading up to the wedding day she graciously answered all of our (probably annoying) questions and made us feel confident and taken care of that we wouldn't have to worry about anything. She made the day of so much fun and so relaxed! And the photos are drop dead GORGEOUS!! She captured the day so beautifully and authentically, the photos bring us right back into laughing and crying with all of our people. Would recommend she and her team to everyone and anyone.
