Sara is a lifestyle newborn, Fresh 48, family, and maternity photographer based in Oakland, CA and a former early childhood special educator. Her children are her inspiration and what made her fall in love with photography because the sentimental side of her didn’t want to miss anything. Her special education background helps her understand where all children are coming from and she wants everyone to feel included to feel their story is told. Sara is a family historian and believes in holding onto memories, capturing the essence of relationships, and not missing the in-between moments. Time passes quickly with children and she never wants to miss the things that will matter most in years to come. She is also a Click Pro Elite and Lensbaby Ambassador and has learned so much from both communities.
