    Sage is one of a kind!

    Sage is AWESOME!! I honestly felt like I had one of my friends photographing us. She made me feel comfortable and at ease the day of our wedding. She’s sweet and accommodating. She gets all the perfect shots and all the little details. I can’t thank you enough, Sage for the beautiful photos, that I will cherish forever.

    Sage is simply amazing!

    Sage is amazing! She is so easy to work with and so incredibly kind. She is so talented and provides quick communication. Also, her turn around time is incredible! I am so thankful Sage was apart of our wedding day. 100/10 recommend.

    Best Photographer Ever!!!!

    We hired Sage to photograph our wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer!! She was very helpful, kind, and supportive throughout the whole day! We even had multiple guests mention her helpfulness after the wedding. And not to mention, the photos are STUNNING!!! Do yourself a favor and book Crown Images, you will not regret it!

    Sage was 10/10

    Sage was the best, she made us feel comfortable and ourselves! She had a unique perspective for really impressive resulting photos. Would recommend Sage to any friend! Some times island time will impact responsiveness of some vendors (which is all good) but Sage was always quick to respond and communicate about her ideas for timeline etc which is important for lighting especially when planning out of town. Could not be more happy with our choice, thanks so much Sage!

    Amazing Photographer

    Sage was the best photographer. She was so helpful leading up to my wedding, always quick to respond and give me her insight about the island. On the wedding day she was amazing, so great to have around, always looking out for the little details, and captured moments I didn't know happened. She gave us the pictures so fast after the wedding day, and we absolutely love the images. Her photography skills are amazing! So grateful we chose her to document our wedding day.

    The best photographer

    Sage was absolutely essential in making our wedding day run as smoothly as it did. In the weeks leading up to our special day, she was always super responsive with helping me plan the timeline for the day. Then on the day of the wedding, she directed everyone and got all of the shots we needed while keeping us all on schedule. Our pictures ended up being absolutely stunning and she captured our day perfectly. If you have a special event in the USVI, you have to have Sage capture it!

    Fantastic and beautiful

    Sage was amazing. She was professional but also fun. She took the time to get to know my bride and me and found creative ways to show our dream wedding as candidly as possible. I will definitely be booking again for our 5 year anniversary!

    Thank you so much for your thorough documentation of our most perfect day. Also, thank you for also taking on the role of coordinating the event as I kind of dropped the ball and thought we’d be able to handle it. You are the epitome of professional and we are so lucky to have gotten to work with you!

    Superwoman Sage - Thank you!

    We cannot thank Sage enough for being the most wonderful wedding photographer for us. I did not have a wedding planner, and Sage played a key role in helping me plan out the day around photos and providing all-around advice. Throughout the wedding everyone kept commenting how amazing she was - if you went to pose for a photo on a phone, all the sudden she was there capturing every moment in a professional photo. As the bride, I am also not big into photos, but she made sure to make me feel comfortable and give me direction so that I ended up with some beautiful shots to remember for a lifetime. Hardworking, talented, amazing attitude, sweet...there are so many words to describe the experience of working with Sage. In the end we received nearly 800 incredible photos that brought so much joy to all of our guests and those who did not attend. We are so happy to have chosen her as our wedding photographer and cannot recommend her enough to others. Thank you, Sage!!!

    Exceptional

    Sage with Crown Images was amazing. Her photographs are beautiful. We used her for our wedding in May and we have our photos in an unexpected timely manner in June. Sage was very fun and personable to work with. Her and I talked over the phone once before the wedding and we met for the first time on the day of. She was easy to get along with right away. I would recommend Sage for any of your photography needs and I would without a doubt use her again!

    obsessed with Sage the slayer of trains

    From my first email to her inquiring about pricing, availability, etc she was always responsive and so so helpful. Sage was straight forward as to what she needed from me and vice versa. She provided suggestions whenever I asked and all of them were extremely helpful. I do not have my pictures back yet, but I am 100% certain they will be perfect. I met Sage the day of my wedding and immediately was comfortable with her. She helped me pose and figure out what to do with my hands, she SLAYED my train for every picture so that it laid perfectly, was very organized with family pictures so it went by extremely fast, and worked so well with every person on my team - including my sometimes hard to deal with father ;). Sage is worth EVERY penny! I wish I lived closer because I would force her to hang out with me - she is an amazing person and a phenomenal photographer! Thank you so much Sage!

    Wedding Photographer

    We knew we loved her after our first conversation but we had no idea that she would become family the day of our wedding! Sage was so helpful in planning the timeline, looking at photo ideas I had posted on Pinterest, and directing people to make sure she got the perfect shot! Sage was not afraid to tell us to move this way or that to insure everyone looked good which we SO appreciated! She was the perfect combination of professionalism and playfulness and it was obvious that she cared about us on our special day. Thank you so much for capturing our wedding in such a way that we can enjoy for the rest of our lives! You truly were a pleasure to work with.

    Family session

    We highly recommend Sage for any of your photography needs. We made our first visit to the island this past November and wanted some family photos for keep sakes (and a Christmas card). Sage provided a lot of guidance as far as scouting locations and ultimately we settled on a professional suggestion - Brewer's Bay. It was clear why she suggested the location, it was exquisite. The natural open landscape allotted many "frame-worthy" pictures. Sage was especially wonderful with our 3 year old daughter. She exuded an abundance of patience and was able to extract the playfulness from our daughter that captured her full range of personality. The interaction was genuine and appeared second nature, which made for a fun, engaging shoot. We didn't expect to have our digital photos back to us within the short time frame between Thanksgiving and Christmas and requested only an untouched, raw photo if possible to use for Christmas cards. Sage impressed us again with her turnaround on the finished digital copies of our shoot giving us plenty of time to order/make a family Christmas card. We couldn't be happier with the final outcome of the pictures and the overall experience. Whenever we return to the island and are in need of photographs, we'll be seeking out Sage beforehand! Thanks again!

    Sage is AMAZING! She is one of the most genuine and sweetest people I have ever met. Sage was so much fun to work with. My husband and I felt like we could be ourselves in front of the camera. We couldn't imagine having anyone else capture our wedding day. Our pictures came out absolutely perfect! Sage was timely and punctual. During the whole wedding planning process, she responded to emails in a timely fashion and answered any of the questions we had. We also received all our pictures in just a couple weeks. She went above and beyond! After the Hurricane, our first wedding venue was destroyed and we asked Sage for suggestions and she was so helpful in helping us find a wedding planner. We are so grateful to have met Sage. Now we get to cherish and remember our unforgettable wedding day with her beautiful pictures.
    Thank you Sage!

    Your Perfect St Thomas Photographer!

    My husband and I got engaged June 2017. We traveled to St Thomas to plan our destination wedding in July 2017 and I decided we should not only have our engagement photos done in such a beautiful place, much more unique than where we live, but it would be a fantastic opportunity to try out a potential wedding photographer. I did my research-read reviews, looked at Facebook and Instagram profiles for St Thomas photographers. I decided to reach out to Sage and I am so happy that I chose her. She is such a down to earth person and her work is phenomenal. My husband absolutely hates having his picture taken. I'm not sure what her secret is, but Sage was able to capture the most beautiful pictures for our engagement session at Magens Bay. We received a link for our gorgeous photos within a few weeks. Of course we booked her for our destination wedding in May 2018 and I'm so glad we did. It was so wonderful to be able to work with her twice and to capture all of our wonderful memories. She is truly gifted at what she does. The detail and quality of her work is breathtaking. She was such a wonderful person to work with for our special events. I would highly recommend her as your St Thomas photographer!

    I just used Sage last Friday for our engagement photos. I have only seen 5 photos as sneak peaks before she finished the rest and I am already obsessed. Not only are my pictures gorgeous, but Sage was so fun and sweet to work with. She listened to exactly what I wanted and had fun ideas for us to do as well. She was so easy to work with. She was very responsive to all my emails and very flexible with us. I would highly recommend her! I cannot wait to see our photos in a couple weeks! I am going to have sooo much trouble with which ones to frame because I will love them all! Thanks for a great experience and photos Sage!!

    Sage was amazing to work with. Not only is she responsive, professional and delivers great work - she has a way of making you feel at ease. For a couple who does not feel comfortable being photographed, Sage captured such beautiful moments of our special day. The only problem we have is choosing our favorites amongst the hundreds of gorgeous photos that Sage provided. We recommend Crown Images 100%!

    There are not enough words to express how grateful we are that we chose Sage Hammond with Crown Images for our photography for our big day! She was early and ready to jump right in. We had our first look at 7:00am and she was flexible to work with our every need. During our session, Sage was playful and comforting. We joked around and felt comfortable to be our silly selves while working with her.

    You can tell Sage has vast experience and has an eye for the perfect shot! There were many playful details in our photographs that helped make our vision POP! The clarity on our photographs is unbelievable. I am constantly being told our pictures could be images in a bridal magazine.

    The worst part of working with Sage, there are SOOOO many beautiful pictures. It is almost impossible to choose which ones we like the best! :)

    Sage is amazing. She has done photos for me several times. She's ALWAYS worth the price and always incredibly professional. I recently got engaged, so I HAD to have her for my engagement photos. My fiance and I are a little awkward at times, but she made us feel comfortable and she got some amazing pictures for us to use. She totally posted the shoot on Facebook AND she blogged about them, so check them out on her website! (I'm famous on her site--no big deal.) Seriously, if you're doing family photos, engagements, proposals, weddings, etc., etc., Sage is your girl. I just wish she was available for my wedding! ;)

    Sage is an amazing photographer and all around the sweetest person. She was perfect from our engagement photos on 2/16/17 to our wedding photos on 2/17/17 and we couldn't have asked for anything more from her. Our family and guests adored her as well. She's very fun, bubbly, sweet, and professional. We couldn't recommend her more!

    My husband and I got married in Magen's Bay, St Thomas. When we were looking online at the various beaches to get married at, we came across the picture of the two palm trees and the picture was by Sage. He said "I want to get married there." I said "I want this photographer." And boy are we so happy we did! Our pictures are breathtaking, flawless, and just perfect. Many look like postcards. Anyone who looks through her photographs will see that as well. But what you cannot see is what a great person Sage is- personable, friendly, accommodating and efficient! Not only did she make us feel as if we had known her for months, but she also fulfilled our requests for specific photos, asked us if we had anymore poses/scenes we wanted when she was done, and she never made us feel rushed. She was prompt with delivery of final product as well. Thanks so much Sage!! -Stacie & David Towle

    Sage was an absolute joy to work with! Her photography is amazing and we love our wedding photos!! We let her know what we were looking for and she provided great advice that helped us decide where and when to get married so that we could capture the images we wanted on the beach. Sage is so sweet and calm, she really made us feel at ease - very important since we didn't meet her until our wedding day in St. Thomas. We highly, highly recommend Sage and Crown Images!!
