Sarah Jane is truly the best

If you're reading this, chances are you're in the thick of wedding planning, trying to figure out who you can actually trust to photograph one of the most chaotic, beautiful, and unforgettable days of your life. Let us save you the trouble: Yes. You can stop looking. Sarah Jane is that good.

One of the things we appreciated most about working with Sarah Jane is how clearly she cares. Not just about taking beautiful photos (though she absolutely does), but about getting to know the people in front of the camera. When we first connected, she asked thoughtful questions about the big day—not just about our timeline or photo preferences, but about our relationship, values, and what we wanted to feel when we looked back on the day. And that care, thoughtfulness, humor, and intention showed up in every part of the process: in the prep, on the day, and even in the follow-up. Her presence, humor, and intention made everything smoother, more meaningful, and honestly just more fun. You don't just get a photographer with Sarah Jane—you get someone who's fully in it with you.

On the day of, she was exactly the kind of energy we needed (especially as two chronically late people): she was chill but confident, unobtrusive but somehow everywhere at once. She blended in like a guest, but also had this quiet command that helped keep things moving and made us feel like we were in the best hands (because we were).

Also worth noting: our wedding was not a simple, tightly choreographed event. It was whimsical, disco dinosaur-themed, deeply DIY, and a little unhinged in all the best ways. Sarah didn't just handle it—she got it. She leaned into the weirdness with joy and ease, and made everything feel natural, even when we were sweaty, overwhelmed, or crying through our vows. She was the kind of person you want around you on a big, emotional day: calm, kind, thoughtful, and endlessly prepared.

And the photos? They're stunning. Absolutely stunning. We got our gallery back way faster than expected (bless her) and were full-on weeping scrolling through it. Every time we look through them (which is often), we're right back in it—the laughter, the tears, the chaos, the tiny moments that flew by too fast to notice. Sarah Jane caught all of it. And don’t even get me started on the golden hour portraits. Straight-up editorial. I almost didn’t recognize us—in the best way.

Sarah Jane didn't just take pictures of the event—she documented the feeling of the day. Every frame has so much love, movement, and honesty. They're not just pictures—they're a love letter to that day and everything it meant.

So, if you're considering working with her: do it. Truly. You will not regret it. You'll get gorgeous photos, yes—but more than that, you'll get to work with someone who brings care, creativity, and fun to every step of the process. We can't imagine our wedding day without her.

Norway Elopement

Cannot thank Sarah Jane enough! After she photographed our friends' wedding, we got to talking about our own elopement. We joked about her joining us in Norway and she enthusiastically accepted. She was the most hype-girl photographer we could have ever asked for! Even though I was sick during our travels, Sarah Jane made me feel like I was the most beautiful bride!

She was super excited to join us overseas, and into to the adventure of finding a beautiful place to stay. Our elopement was in the Nordic winter, but she gave us confidence that regardless of what the weather brought we were going to have a beautiful wedding. We lucked out and caught a full day of golden hour sunshine and took full advantage of the fjords, mossy grounds, and "paid" seagulls flying behind our ceremony!

Her perpetual optimism and love for love only enhanced what was our perfect day. Norway was epic, but Sarah Jane made it even more so!!

Best Decision We Made: Sarah Jane!!

The moment we stumbled across Sarah Jane’s website, we were blown away. The photos were full of genuine emotion, joy, and adventure—and oh, the stunning outdoor backdrops! You could literally feel the excitement and connection in every shot.

We booked a video call with her right away, and before we even hung up, we knew—Sarah Jane was the one!

She helped us find the perfect location, made sure we were ready for anything weather-wise, and captured every special moment beautifully—including the most magical golden hour shots we’ve ever seen.

She’s more than just a photographer—she’s a calming presence, a planning pro, and someone you’ll be so glad to have by your side. Highly, highly recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
