I am Sarah! I am a hopeless romantic, hippie-ish, momma and wedding photographer living in Raleigh NC. Wedding photography has my heart. After 10 years of photographing weddings, I can genuinely say, there is nothing I love capturing more for my brides than all the heart and soul that goes into your wedding day.
I love creating beautiful images with my whole being! I put every ounce of heart & soul into my photography and really want them to stand out from other traditional style portraits. I absolutely love showing the connection you share with the those who light up your life! I love creating tangible art for my clients!

Welcome to my little place in this big big world. So glad you are here! As you may have guessed I love wedding & family photography, but more than photos, I love capturing genuine love, emotion, laughs, snuggles, & all the moments in between with you and the people that light up your life! The more life I live, I'm learning that time goes way to fast!

Sarah has done a number of photo shoots for our family, including our engagement photos, new headshots, and most recently, our wedding photos in June 2021! Sarah is an amazing photographer and does an excellent job of helping to understand the goals of her clients. Sarah worked with us through 2 wedding postponements (third time's the charm!) and truly gave us the most memorable day. We have gotten so much great feedback on all of our photos and I am so thankful we chose to work with Sarah for our big day! My goal with finding a wedding photographer was to find someone who could really help the

We loved our newborn photo session experience with Sarah, and our photos turned out so beautiful. Though we had to make several changes to our original plan due to both covid and bad weather, Sarah was super understanding and accommodating. We even ended up arriving super late to our photo session, losing a lot of time and sunlight, but Sarah jumped into action and made sure that despite all the issues, we still had a wonderful experience and such special pictures. We would definitely recommend Sarah and plan to have photos taken with her in the future.

We are absolutely in love with our baby’s pictures! Sarah, we can’t thank you enough for capturing those special moments. You made us feel comfortable and guided us along the way from suggestions on what to wear to the different ways our pictures could be displayed. We chose the album and we couldn’t be happier with it! Not just good but Premium quality! The sneak peek preview of our photos included a touching little video (slide show) with a beautiful song in the background. Tastefully done Sarah! It’s all in the details. And then she personally delivered our album which we thought was

My family has been working with Sarah for a few years now from newborn pictures to mini sessions, and family photos. She’s very personable and an absolute joy to work with! I fall in love with her pictures every time! They capture our families personalities so well! She’s hands down the best photographer I’ve worked with!

Do yourself a favor and book Sarah now! She took our maternity, newborn and family pictures and was an absolute dream to work with! She was professional, easy going and made us feel super comfortable throughout the shoots. The pictures turned out AMAZING and were ready much sooner than expected (she just had a baby herself and still made time to work on our photos)! Sarah is a true artist and it shows in her work. We will definitely be using Sarah for our pictures moving forward and highly recommend her!

Sarah has been taking our family photos since our first son was born in 2015. I found her just by randomly searching Google and feel SO BLESSED to have worked with her these past 5 years! We have done 3 full newborn/6month/1 year portfolios with her (1 boy, and 2 girls). We've also done maternity pictures, holiday mini sessions, and one of her sunflower mini sessions! When I say I would recommend Sarah, I actually do recommend her to literally anyone asking. Not only do we get those "perfect to hang above the fireplace" shots, but we also get the truly touching, real life, never would have imagined

Sarah has been working with my family for 7 years now! She started with our newborn session and we have been so happy with each of our sessions that we keep coming back for more! :) Her artistic and natural approach to families photos has produced the most beautiful photos of our families that we will cherish forever. 100% recommend Sarah Joann Photography!

Sarah took some amazing pictures of my 3 young kids! It was hot and they were cranky, but she took the most amazing pictures even though they were behaving awful and not cooperating! If you need newborn or any family pics I highly recommend her! I’m in love with the very first pics of my newest baby and her siblings together!❤️
