I LOVE children, especially babies! Children all have unique personalities, interests and stories. Sometimes they'll even share them with me, along with a soggy cracker & their juice box. If I'm not shooting your adorable kids I'm likely surrounded by my own. I am a full time studio & outdoor photographer with a passion to focus on newborn, babies & children.
I believe photography is an ever changing art that requires more than what can be taught in a classroom. I love to attend workshops with photographers from all over the world who specialize in maternity, newborns & children. Every photographer has a style of their own. When choosing a photographer it is important to review examples of their work in order to know if their style of photography is the style for you so while you browse my portfolio keep that in mind.
I strongly believe everyone deserves to have beautiful heirloom photos, albums, & art to display proudly throughout their home & pass down to generations to come.
hat we will experience in our time together means as much to me as the final product! If you want portraits that express who you are & the love you have for your family, I'll need you to open up a bit & share. So it's only fair you should know a little about me.

Your Favorite Central NJ Portrait Photographer
I'm Sarah :)
I met my husband Ray when I was just 14 years old in High School & we've been together ever since! We now have 4 beautiful children together who we had at all stages of our life together. Our first, Leah we had in our teens; our 2nd, Zachary we had in our 20's; and our 3rd & 4th, Aliza & Elon, we had in our 30's. We have certainly been busy over the past 20+ years & somewhere soon after baby #2 is when I started doing photography! I was determined to capture all the memories I could with them while we were still young. Loosing both my parents at a young age really taught me early on how short & precious the time we have with our children is. You'll see a lot of my younger two all over social media as they are usually my test subjects! We also have our family pet, a 10 year old cat named Charlie & a backyard flock of chickens :)

My Favorite Things
Other than babies & photography, I love to read although I have very little times for it these days so I've switched to audio books which is usually what I'm listening to while editing. I have a degree in dental hygiene and still occasionally practice since I love making a difference in patient's lives. I'm a life long fan of Grey's Anatomy & love historical dramas & SciFi movies. My favorite foods are cheese & chocolate. I hate coffee but love tea & my favorite music artist is Jack Johnson. I love the beach & despise the cold. My favorite color has always been red though I tend to wear a lot of green. My newest obsession is building our own little homestead while raising kids, chickens & growing a garden.
Chickens & Tea
My family of six has always loved the outdoors. We try to spend as much time outside as possible. We love to camp - in tents! We also all love water parks so we take the littles to indoor water parks like Great Wolf Lodge during the colder months and love going to outdoor ones in the warmer months. Hershey Park is one of our favorite local trips. We pretty much anywhere in Florida we love to vacation to as well as visiting family in California when we can make it there. I hope to visit as many National Parks as we can once the little ones are a bit bigger to make the hikes with us. In the mean time I'll continue living in good old New Jersey where I love working with beautiful families from all over the state.
FUN THINGS
Sarah has been our family photographer since she took newborn pictures of our first baby. She’s kind, professional, creative and beyond talented. She has captured moments that I will cherish for a life time. Simply put, she is the best!
Sarah is amazing. Not only has she photographed my maternity and my sons newborn pictures, she also did a very special 30th birthday cake smash for me! Working with her is so easy and natural. I love having her works of art up on our walls for our family and friends to see! Thanks Sarah!
I absolutely adore Sarah. Not only is she a great photographer but her communication, dedication, and love for every single client is outstanding. Sarah truly goes above and beyond. We have used her for my first sons newborn, cake smash and splash, and 2 years of Christmas and are extremely excited to use her again for our second son due in November. I always seem to come up with random question that Sarah never hesitates to answer. There is no one better & it's always such an easy and smooth process.
We had such a great experience for newborn pictures and 1st birthday cake smash. For the newborn pictures, we really wanted to include our 2 dogs and Sarah was so accommodating. The pictures came out amazing and we received so many compliments. She had a great selection of backgrounds, outfits and accessories. Highly recommend using them for photos!
Sarah has been taking our family's photos outdoors for the last 7 years. We are always so happy with the shots she turns around. She is open to ideas, super patient with kids (and adults), and has a true talent for capturing beautiful smiles in wonderful backgrounds. Her turnaround time is quick as well. I won't go to any other photographer and definitely recommend her to our friends!

Love, love, love the photos Sarah took of our baby girl for her first birthday. I knew I was going to enjoy working with Sarah from the very beginning. She responded to my inquiry in a timely manner and was very clear and thorough with communicating process, scheduling and all of the details. Her platforms for scheduling and planning were so easy to navigate and also very thorough. Sarah was also very helpful with developing our theme and wardrobe. I can’t thank Sarah enough for capturing such a beautiful milestone in our family’s life. Can’t wait to have our family photos done with Sarah.
Best photographer ever!! I have nothing but amazing things to say about Sarah. She is truly amazing at her craft! Sarah photographed both my daughter and sons newborn pictures, and just recently my daughters communion photos. She has shot both studio and outdoor session for my family, you can’t go wrong with either. She has just a natural talent and has a great eye for capturing the perfect picture! If you are looking for a down to earth, pure raw talent then Sarah is the photographer for you!! You won’t be disappointed!
Sarah is so wonderful to work with. I’ve worked with her for 2 of my daughters for newborn and 1st birthday. She always has new creative ideas and even has the outfits and accessories for baby and big sisters!
Sarah is the best of the best and we love everything about her. Her professionalism and warmth are carried into her photos. She has handled our babies from birth with such love and care and we are so thankful for the memories she has captured that we will cherish forever.
I had my daughter's 1st Birthday cake smash photo shoot done with Sarah. I was very happy with how the photos came out. I had a certain theme that I was set on using and Sarah was able to review backdrops that she had (there were many) and decide on two. My daughter has a lot of separation anxiety and was crying at first. Sarah was very patient and was able to turn the shoot around so we were able to get some beautiful images! I would recommend!
Sarah is an absolutely amazing photographer. She started with the birth of my daughter and 9 years later, she's photographed both of my children and our family multiple times a year. She is incredible with children of all ages, especially newborns. She has such a gift and I highly recommend her for all of your newborn, children and family photos!
Sarah has a gift for taking an uncooperative baby/child/family and getting the most beautiful pictures out of them! There is no one else I would ever let photograph my family!
Sarah is talented and patient with our kids. I would highly recommend Sarah for your family pictures.
Sarah is not only a fantastic artist/photographer, she is also a fine human being with a sharp mind and a big, loving heart! She took photos for our 25th wedding anniversary and she nailed it! Every photo was a keeper, and we had a really fun time doing it. We can't recommend her enough! You won't be disappointed. She is the real deal!
I have been using Sarah for every milestone experienced during the last 9 years. She is amazing! Every session is handled with such care and attention.
All too often, images remain on phones, computers, and worse – USB’s that will one day be a thing of the past. Remember floppy disks? And CD’s? My laptop doesn’t even come with a disk drive! I truly believe that images are meant to be enjoyed as much as possible, and what better way than to showcase them in your home with heirloom quality products.
