Sadi is a hopeless romantic at heart, and that romance has blossomed into a love affair with photography. You can feel in her images the emotion of ever moment captured. Her focus throughout the day is to document every last detail, combining both posed and candid moments for a complete memento of the day. Brides and grooms are always taken aback at the feelings captured in her still imagery. She maintains a specialized company geared towards providing high end whimsical wedding photography and videography.
In addition to her life as a photographer, Sadi is also a mom and wife. When she isn’t shooting and editing, her days are filled with homeschooling her children Kilyk and Ella, and cuddling her husband Kyle. Kilyk, her oldest, was one of the original driving forces behind her start in photography and not much has changed, she loves capturing her beautiful children and all their silly personalities.
The Whimsie team has been praised time and again for their customer service, professionalism and high end wedding products. The passion behind the photographs stands out above others and brings the wedding day to life.
Kyle is an international wedding videographer who has shot films for the past seven years in southern California and all over the world. He is a soft spoken and kind hearted man who poors himself into his work and takes great pride in the incredible wedding videos he creates. His style of cinematography is very documentary and impactful, capturing real raw moments and lots of emotions. Want to see more of his work, check out our videography page here.

Our team works very hard to provide the best customer service possible as well as incredible wedding and portrait photography.

Sadi and her husband Kyle are absolutely amazing!! They went above and beyond for us and were incredibly easy to work with. Sadi put me completely at ease!! She’s an incredible photographer and has a beautiful eye for capturing magical moments! We really could not have picked a better team for our wedding!

One of a kind!!
We used Whimsie Photography to shoot our October wedding at Pine Rose Cabins in Twin Peaks. This, by far, was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! I got to know Sadi a little by email and Instagram prior to meeting her on vendor day 7 months before our wedding. I was so excited to meet her in person because she was so sweet and we got along so well. Between the day we met and the day of our wedding, Sadi was there for me with anything I needed. She helped me make wedding decisions by giving me her expert opinion on all the things! Even things not pertaining to our photos! She has such a talented eye for details and it really was a blessing when trying to make decisions. My husband and I did an engagement shoot with her a few months before the wedding out in Joshua Tree and it was so fun! Sadi is hilarious and really puts you in a good mood and makes you feel so good about yourself! When I would look at Sadi’s pictures of other clients I would think of how beautiful and dreamy they looked and when we got back our engagement pictures, I thought the same thing about us! I was blown away by how much I loved our pictures because I don’t usually like photos of myself. I loved every single one and it made me all the more excited for our wedding photos! By the time our wedding came around, I had very often thought and shared with Sadi how lucky I felt that we had met her through our venue because I couldn’t picture anyone else as our photographer. Wedding photos are such an important part of your wedding because you will need them to look back on your special day forever and you want your photos to not only be beautiful but capture the emotions felt that day. I truly think it is the most important part of planning a wedding and a choice that should be taken very seriously. Said’s dedication to her work and passion for loving her clients is unmatched. On our wedding day, even though Sadi was there to do a job, I felt as though she was also there as one of my friends and that was so special to me. Had she not been there as our photographer, she would have been there as our guest and having that kind of person be the one to capture your day is really such a special thing. Besides the friendship that Sadi and I formed, she absolutely blew us away when we saw our sneak peaks and got our wedding photos back. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone through our gallery and the joy and love that was shared that day shines so bright through our photos, not to mention how beautiful and stunning they are! My husband and I had full trust in her to capture our most important day and she fulfilled that expectation in the highest regard. We are forever grateful to have crossed paths with Sadi and have had the opportunity to have her be a part of our wedding day. I promise that if you choose Sadi to be apart of yours, you will feel just as I do!

Great videography
The bits that I’ve seen so far were great! The experience we had was wonderful, we brought in an outside photographer and the videographers were sooo nice helping our photographer with the best areas for photos because they had been to our venue multiple times. I am sooo excited to see our video and will cherish it forever !
Whimsie photographie, cant say enough about Sadi! Talented, talented, talented. We just love her and her style,our websit is loaded with her lovely pictures, she has this ability to make our floral work shine!! looking forward to working more with the Whimsie photographie team!!
It is always a great pleasure working with Sadi. She is always happy, smiling, and works hard to make sure everyone in each photo looks great. Her pictures say it all - I have worked more than 7 events this year with Whimsie and I am looking forward to working with her again throughout next year!
I had the pleasure of working with Sadi this past weekend and she was awesome! Easy to work with, friendly, creative and professional. As a DJ, I meet a lot of great photographers and Sadi is one that I can gladly add to the list. Definitely recommended!
