We can't recommend Sarah and her team at SHP enough as your wedding photographers (or really... for anything!) Having the included engagement shoot was the perfect touch, as we got to meet Sarah and Tim and get comfortable taking pictures and get to know them so by the time we reached the big day, we were so excited to see them and knew everything was going to be perfect! They do an incredible job of capturing all the photos you expect like the family photos/wedding party/etc. but also the fun photos that capture the nuances of what makes each couples' perfect day individually special! They're also so well organized, great communicators (especially since we were planning from 300 miles away in Boston), and turned around sneak peek photos in just a few days! We're so excited to see the rest in just a few weeks and have an excuse to see and hang out with them again! Hire SHP!

The search for a wedding photographer stops with Sarah Heppell Photography. Whether you are aiming for elegance or something unique and out of the box, this crew will fit any wedding vibe and create an incredibly professional, thoughtful, and enjoyable experience. When we first met Sarah she invited us to her vibrant studio where she had us share our story with her and immediately it felt like we were chatting with an old friend. From there Sarah and Tim adventured around Green Lakes with us for our fun engagement shoot, we chatted over lunches, Sarah was quick to respond to any questions we had along the way, and she never left our side when we had to postpone our wedding. Leading up to the wedding and with our input in mind, SHP had thoroughly planned every detail and shot they wanted to capture. Additionally, they coordinated with our other vendors so that no one missed a beat the day of the wedding. Finally, Sarah and Jenn had the sweetest reveal party with us where they shared our stunning photos, incredibly thoughtful blog post, and album!
Sarah, Jenn, and Tim spent our entire wedding capturing all the special moments that we will have for a lifetime, and we cannot thank them enough. It is evident how much the SHP team genuinely cares about all their couples and how dedicated they are to help make these once and a lifetime events go off without a hitch. We are beyond grateful for not only their high quality work but the friendships that we have made with them. We would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you SHP!!! - Dana & Matt

Sarah and her team were amazing- professional, friendly, super supportive. They had their vision but were also very accepting of our ideas. They made our day go smoothly and made sure we take all the shots on the list we put together.
Coming up to the wedding, Sarah was very thorough and made sure we thought about everything.
The pictures came out absolutely beautiful. I have been looking at them for a week now and can’t get enough. They have captured the mood of the day and the love in the air, pardon my newlywed sappyness.
Sarah and her team are worth every penny. They will make your day special, they will give you something to remember your wedding perfectly for the years to come, and they will show you how beautiful you can be when you are happy. Even when you are ugly crying while walking down the aisle.

Sarah is legit the best human ever. There are so many things, so I’ll try to hit on a few to save some space.
1. Sarah gets to know you both as a couple so well. She offers an included engagement picture session. Not only is it great to have these pictures, but it lets Sarah get to know you both and for you both to get to know Sarah. What this did was make us uber comfortable with Sarah on the day of the event. It felt like we had known each other for years already
2. Sarah and her team coordinate extremely well with your other vendors. We were worried about each vendor dominating our time, but Sarah and her team were so professional and all the coordination happened without my wife and I needing to “get the kids to play nice in the sandbox together.”
3. Her shots are stunning - absolutely amazing. She does dance scenes, candids, landscapes, detail shots, the whole thing just so beautifully.
4. Her process is really easy. She uses a lot of online platforms that make it easy to schedule, pay invoices, fill out forms, etc.
5. She is a blast to be around. 100% guaranteed you will have fun with her.

Go with Sarah!!! You will not regret it!

Sarah did my brand photography and she did an amazing job. She was prompt, gave me an itinerary to follow, was very organized, and delivered the photos very quickly. I was very pleased with her service!

Can we give 10 stars? Not sure we can say enough how much we loved working with Sarah and her team. I’m sad to not be in constant contact now that our wedding is over!! We are thrilled with our engagement photos and are on pins and needles to see the magic she captured on our wedding day. Sarah and her team are absolutely amazing, got our personalities, what worked and what didn’t. She was quick and not at all in the way. Our guests even commented on how wonderful they were!! If you ever need an event photographer do yourself a favor and hire SHP!! Thank you to Sarah and the SHP Team!! - the Hudsons

From the beginning, Sarah was so responsive with e-mails and questions and helping us decide which length package would be best for our wedding day. We moved across the country after we had booked Sarah, but we kept our venue and date in New York. Sarah was extremely helpful. Throughout the entire planning process, she answered questions, responded quickly, planned the timeline, gave tips for what would make the wedding day run smoother, suggested vendors, all in a completely professional and super friendly manner! We had purchased a package that included an engagement session, which we did not get to do before we moved. She offered to fly out to get pictures in Washington. For her to offer this meant the world to us, and it shows that she truly cares for her clients and goes above and beyond for them. This is something you won’t find with any photographer. Unfortunately, it did not work out to have her fly out, but the fact that she offered says a lot for who she is as a businesswoman and photographer.
We received so many compliments from our guests about Sarah and her team. They were fun, professional, punctual, and amazing to work with. This was truly the best investment we could have made for our wedding day. And why? Because after all of the planning and stressing and dancing and laughing and the actual wedding is over, what is left? The pictures. We are so happy our wedding was captured by her team, because they truly cared about our day. They did not make us feel like this was just another wedding they were capturing. They didn’t act like this was a job. They acted like they love what they do. This is exactly what you want out of a wedding photographer, someone who is willing to fly to Washington for your engagement pictures, work with you two days before your wedding in their very busy season, lay on the ground for you, capture your quirky dog cutouts, and go above and beyond for you. We are ever grateful!

Sarah and her team of photographers are everything a couple wants on their big day, their engagement photo session, and everything in between. My husband and I booked Sarah immediately after becoming engaged as we knew she was the best of the best- and she waited a full 2.5 years and helped us plan every step of the way. Sarah and her team are fun, creative, down to earth, DEDICATED, and professional. The day before my wedding a flash flood was in the forecast. Everyone in my wedding party reassured me Sarah would know what to do and to trust her artistic eye. I followed her lead and our photographs are BEAUTIFUL. Sarah and her team fought a monsoon, a four hour power outage (which they kept the photobooth up in! HELL YEAH!), a ceremony in a pitch black barn lit by wedding guests' cellphones, and all while with mud up to their knees. Sarah is more than a photographer. She accompanied me to my wedding venue and organized all the important details for me directly after our meeting, took important photos that I saved for later planning (and decorating), AND she traveled all the way to Arlington VA for our engagement photos! She even suffered a 5am sunrise photoshoot! She is a beast, and she is the best. After the wedding concluded everyone noted how organized and professional Sarah and her team were and described her confidence as contagious. Guests were drawn to her energy and I believe she kept the mood alive and well on our big day. If you book anyone else as your wedding photographer team you will be greatly disappointed.

Book her right now. If I could give her 6 stars I would have.

Her whimsical photo style caught my eye from the very beginning, I loved the way she brought personality into the formal portraits and really captured the moments with thought-out candid shots. I shopped around a little, but nothing compared to Sarah Heppell Photography. I honestly think I would have thoroughly regretted not going with this photographer.

Sarah was poised, responsive and really handled every question I had without seeming bothered by my inquiries. (I had a ton of questions, having never hired a photographer before.) There's not a single interaction I had with her or her team that wasn't positive and genuinely happy.

The photos were delivered super quickly and they are stunning, definitely take a look through her blog and see how well she caters to each individual wedding and really captures the heart and soul of the celebration.

She also went above and beyond for us, finding poses and spots that were perfection. She added a few portraits of my parents to celebrate a big milestone for them without anyone asking, she just offered them the opportunity and they're so special.

Honestly. Book her. It is worth it, and so much more.

This girl ... where do I even begin? Sarah is AMAZING!!!! She has done a few of my friends' engagement photos and wedding photos, and I have always loved how vivid and bright her photos are. She is one of the funnest people I have ever met, and she made my husband and I feel so relaxed during everything! Our engagement shoot was so much fun and she made all of the images look gorgeous (our favorite was in front of a random garage door in Downtown Syracuse; it's so awesome!) and the day of the wedding she made everyone feel natural and made sure we had a great time (because let's face it, sometimes posing can be a drag.) And her team is amazing - I cannot say enough good things about Jenn and Wesley (and of course, Sarah's husband Tim who did an awesome job manning our Photo Booth!) So many people have commented on how awesome our photographer was, and I couldn't agree more!
