Introduction
Incredible images Patient and understanding Helpful I am a photographer for entrepreneurs, models, brides, grooms, dads, moms, high school seniors and grandparents who get incredible images! I both take pictures and help people use their own camera. As an instructor, I'm not boring! I have tons of energy and try my best to help people easily understand how to use their cameras and how to prepare for a shoot and even learn how to use their images for social media or design a layout of wall art for their home. My classes are mostly hands on! We get tons of practice. If you decide to take my five class course you get to practice about every other week for a couple months. This really helps people retain what they learn! People go away from my classes taking beautiful pictures of Paris, forests, and tropical vacations. They take pictures of newborns and soccer games and birthday parties. I love helping people remember what matters most! I love working with people and traveling to beautiful locations in addition to getting great pictures! I love figuring out different cameras unique features to help their owners understand how to use them. I especially love helping people who have limited experience even using technology finally figure out how to use their cameras or a photo editing program. Many times mothers, travelers, grandparents take my class because they don't want to forget about important places and people. I want to help people remember what matters most to them! I also love it when clients email me their favorite pictures and tell me how it was fun to work with me.

Family pictures are often challenging and stressful for parents with young children. Sarah always delivers in these situations. We have photos from these family shoots framed and hung by our front door for all of our guests to see.

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I decided to become a photographer when I was a teenager. Honestly, I wanted to find my niche, since my brothers and sisters are such talented artists. I found using a camera was an easy way to show people the beauty I saw around me. I took all the photography courses in my high school until they had to create classes as independent study and pay for me to take a college class. I really loved using my camera when I traveled to other countries. I worked freelance for the Cambridge News shooting sporting events and for friends shooting weddings. I finally opened my own business in 2008 featuring weddings and child sessions. Then in 2011, I started teaching people how to use their own cameras. I love teaching just as much as I love taking pictures!

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I help people learn how to use their cameras, I shoot weddings and child, family, and high school senior sessions too. I also teach people how to edit their photos.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    When you hire an instructor, you want someone who is friendly, willing to help you learn what you want to learn, and go where you want to go.
