Exceeded all expectations!

Sally was a delight to work with! We were drawn to her documentary style that captured candid *moments*. Her portfolio showed that she had a solid understanding of composition, texture, and light & shadow. Additionally, it was important to us to have an inclusive photographer who respected all identities and cultures.


From the very beginning, Sally was open and communicative, taking the time to understand our wedding day, offering timeline suggestions, answering questions, and getting to know us and our style. We had multiple experiences on our wedding day, including a tea ceremony and lion dance, so there were many moving parts, making for a full day.


On the day of our wedding, Sally and her assistant, Gael, were prompt and starting working right way. Sally was geared up with multiple cameras and a harness. She even brought accessories to stage items for detail photos (such a ring holder and ribbon!). Sally was familiar with our venue, Lake Morey Resort, and had a lot of ideas on where to take photos (despite the slightly rainy day!). Additionally, Sally and Gael were extremely patient with our relatives, all of whom acted as paparazzi. We were super impressed with the photos Sally captured, despite our relatives randomly jumping in to grab a photo on their phones! Sally and Gael were everywhere and oftentimes, we didn't even notice they were there to capture certain moments! They were truly professionals who kept up their energy and enthusiasm the entire day, and worked in harmony with our videographer and the venue coordinator.


Due to family request, our photos were a blend of candid shots and formal portraits. Sally balanced these perfectly, doing an excellent job with both styles of photography. We were impressed at how quickly we received sneak peeks. Photos from the entire day were delivered via an elegant USB flash drive.


Sally exceeded all of our expectations. Her photos captured real, candid moments, beautifully reflecting the joy of the day. We only wish we hired her for the entire weekend!

Wonderful and accommodating wedding photography

Sally was absolutely wonderful to work with. She photographed our micro wedding at Saint Gaudens gardens and right from the start she helped us to select a package and services that worked best for our small event. On the day of the wedding, it poured rain, but Sally was incredible at finding sheltered places to take pictures, working with us, and just generally finding ways to work around the less than ideal conditions. The first pictures we have gotten back (the day after the wedding!) are absolutely amazing and exactly what we were hoping to get out of the day - some of them look straight out of a high end fashion magazine. I can’t recommend Sally highly enough!

Sally is a true genius!

From our first glimpses of Sally’s portfolio, we knew this is who we wanted to capture our daughter and son-in-law’s special day. Talking to her just reinforced that choice. She knew we were looking for that balance of the posed and candids that everyone wants, but she raised the bar by her use of lighting and framing so our pictures seem like art. Looking at our sneak peek photos, I can say that she not only captured the emotions of the day, but our wedding looks like a fairy tale come to life. That she was so warm and easy to work with was a nice bonus. If you are looking for a photographer to entrust with capturing your wedding, you cannot do better than Sally.
