Testimonials
“Multiple people, even artists and photographers in their own rights, have commented on the extraordinary quality of the photos, and others have said that they look like paintings from another time, or scenes from a storybook. Savannah captured every detail of the day. We could not have asked for more.” - CHELSEA & JONATHAN
“Breathless. I’m still so blown away by Sarah’s photography. She is a beautiful soul and it shines through in her work. She captures moments, not photos. Fine Art: one of the compliments I got on my photos. She is warm and is so easy to communicate with. If you want dreamy, natural photos do not hesitate.” - ASHLEIGH & DAVIS
“Sarah is a true artist and was absolutely lovely to work with. From the beginning Sarah made us feel at ease. She captures light in spaces that I could not even conceive as possible. She brought every emotion of our engagement and wedding days to life, allowing us to relive it all for years to come.” - MALLORY & ASHTON
