Congratulations! Whether you plan to throw a ginormous celebration of epic proportions or keeping it simple with an intimate ceremony between a few, I'm happy to see you decided to review my work to consider for your wedding day photography. If you are like me, you find photography to be the most important aspects of your wedding day because its the one thing you will have left to look back to when its all said and done. You want it told authentically and beautifully.

  • You love pictures that look and feel genuine, colorful, and joyful to look at.

  • You want not just a photographer, but an artist and creative who loves both photography and weddings.

  • You love photography and find it to be the most important piece to your day. You want those memories to be told authentically and beautifully.

  • You or your partner seeks someone relatable and can make them feel comfortable in front of the camera, personally attentive, a local wedding expert, and a supportive hand with your wedding day.

  • You want someone who demonstrates inclusivity in their work and services.

  • You want to be able to just enjoy your wedding day with limited interruptions. You want to enjoy and soak in the moment with a laid-back, relaxing wedding day.

You're here because...

Hi, i'm sabrina!

more about me?

"Sabrina was easy to work with. She made as feel comfortable in front of the camera and was patient with our wedding party, getting everyone together for photos. It was fun to look at the photos she captured afterwards especially the candid moments that I didn't remember."

Sabrina photographed our engagement photos in Philadelphia then our wedding in Jamaica, it was great to have that consistency with our images and to have her photograph our wedding day so beautifully(especially during covid). She is very detailed and loves what she does and that shows in the beautiful images she captures!

"SHE IS VERY DETAILED AND LOVES WHAT SHE DOES"

I believe so strongly in the power of being able to connect in a meaningful way when it comes to finding your photographer. It's important that everyone feels comfortable with each other so that we can make the best moments look and feel natural. I'm perfectly flexible in whatever means works for this be it over the phone, video, or--and perhaps my preferred method--through email.

let's chat!

01.

first meetings

After we decided to move forward together, to book me requires a signed contract and a deposit to get things moving. Once the date is booked for the calendar, you'll receive a plethora of different goodies from me ranging from vendor recommendations, timeline guidance, and more!

My goal is to be a wedding resource for you as you plan, organize, and get ready for your wedding day. 

we're official!

02.

book the date

I begin planning the photography timeline with you two months from the date of your wedding. This timeline will give you a specific idea of where I'll be and at what time, create a list of must have shots, and gives everyone a clear idea of the schedule for pictures during the day.

This is a loosely based list as I do prioritize capturing moments which are not always planned or posed, but to ensure that you do get the most out of your photography, it helps to create a vision of what you want to see.

getting you ready

It's finally here! The day the two of you say "I Do" and dance the night away surrounded by your family and friends. By this point, you'll be fully prepared for what to do and have a full idea of how I like to capture the wedding day

Your wedding will be documented with both a photojournalistic and editorial approach capturing both posed and unposed moments. I help with the posed ones and give you the peace of mind knowing I'm capturing your uninterrupted moments.

F.A.Q.

Yes, I am insured through Hiscox and happy to provide that to you or the location you intend to get married. Rest assured you are covered.

01. ARE YOU INSURED?

The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding. Typically, a finished gallery will produce 80 to 90 images per hour. I delivery only the best from the day so you have high-quality selection of images to enjoy.

02. HOW MANY PHOTOS ARE TYPICALLY INCLUDED AND CAN WE PRINT THE PHOTOS OURSELVES?

My style is blending photojournalism with fine art imagery. I capture weddings as unobtrusively as possible for rich, genuine storytelling but with a sprinkle of classic portraiture.  I love colorful, true tones and playful lighting. I create art with the the look and feel of editorial candid film.

03. WHAT’S YOUR STYLE OF PHOTOGRAPHY?

My specialty lies with still photography only. However, I have a fantastic list of local videographers I can supply you with. 

04. do you offer video?

Yes, I always have a helping assistant/second photographer who will be with me for large scale events. Smaller events will usually just include me only.

05. DO YOU HAVE A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER?

 I do all my editing and retouching myself. In the contract I state it takes anywhere between 6-8 weeks. However realistically speaking, it's usually 4-6 week.

06. HOW LONG DO YOU TAKE TO DELIVER THE PHOTOS?

Yes, I do! In fact, they're my favorite type of weddings to cover. I love the intimacy of a joyous occasion between a few people or just the two of you. Even if your ceremony is nothing more than ten minutes in front of a court judge, it's still a moment worth documenting. Trust me. Contact me for a custom quote.

07. DO YOU COVER MICRO-WEDDINGS AND ELOEPEMENTS? 

Oh yeah, definitely. As a fellow awkward person, I can relate entirely to the chaos of having to trust and let a stranger take a photograph of you. That's why after years of doing this, I like to think I know what to say and do to make people feel comfortable around me. Whether giving cues, prompts, or just letting you peek behind my camera, my job is to ensure you walk away feeling confident that your photos will look amazing.

08. I'M SUPER AWKWARD IN PICTURES. CAN YOU HELP WITH THAT?
