Couldn't Have Picked a Better Photographer!

We could not be happier with Sarah and the way she told our wedding day story through her photography. When we received our photos just two weeks after the big day, we quickly texted her, “WE ARE STARSTRUCK!” Sarah’s background is originally in black-and-white photography. This means that she knows how to work with lighting and how to pick the perfect moment to take a shot so that it says a million things all at once. Her attention to detail is phenomenal; as result, the quality of our photos is unparalleled.

If you are planning a wedding in South Bend, especially one on Notre Dame’s campus, Sarah is the one you need. She knows the Basilica and campus like the back of her hand. In turn, she knew exactly what shots to get and where. We both have large families, and she came up with excellent plans to corral everyone as necessary while staying on schedule. In fact, she went out of her way to create an entire wedding day timeline for us and sent it in a smartphone wallpaper format that we could easily send to the wedding party. In addition, she made time to attend our rehearsal so that she could prepare for each aspect of our ceremony and anticipate times to take the best pictures. Sarah was in steady communication with us throughout our wedding planning process. No question was left unanswered, no detail too small. She was willing to wake up in the wee hours of the day to take “getting ready” photos before our morning wedding and even offered to transport bridesmaids to the ceremony in her SUV if it turned out we didn’t have enough drivers. A few months after the wedding, we received a gorgeous photo album from Sarah. She carefully customized the album for us based on pictures of our choosing and spent as long as we needed discussing options that fit our budget. She kept in touch with us as we waited for it to arrive in the mail so there were no concerns about it getting lost anywhere in transit.

It’s one thing to be a phenomenal photographer, but another thing altogether to be a genuinely kind, generous soul. Sarah Sage is both. As my husband says, “She really captures memories. These aren’t just photos.”

The BEST decision!

Sarah Sage was without a doubt the best decision we made for our wedding. Her photography speaks for itself – our wedding photos were exactly what we had envisioned.

Sarah made the entire process stress free and enjoyable. She flew out to Washington, D.C. for our engagement shoot, and without ever having seen some of our shot locations, she still found the best spots to photograph. Before the big day, she created an extensive timeline to ensure we captured everything we wanted. On wedding day itself, she was instrumental in keeping us on time the entire day.

Throughout the entire process, we felt like friends rather than just another client. We sincerely could not have been happier working with her. Highly highly recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
