Love Letters

“Both my husband and I can say that finding Sarah was one of the biggest blessings! Not only is she such an amazing photographer but she really is the sweetest human being. She goes above and beyond as a photographer - capturing the most beautiful photos and moments, checking in on us throughout the wedding day, and making things so fun! Honestly, we can't say enough great things about her!

From our first meeting with her to our wedding day, she has always been a super positive, calm, and fun presence. Even with planning her own wedding, she was quick to respond to emails and messages. We had a couple of changes to our schedule and venue throughout the planning process and Sarah was great to bounce ideas off of and flexible in accommodating the changes. We even booked a pre-wedding photoshoot session (to lessen some of the nerves on the actual wedding day) and it was such a blast! Looking back on our wedding day, Sarah was a huge part in why the day was as perfect as it is. We can't thank her enough!”

“I don't even know where to start- we LOVE Sarah. She is such a wonderful human and we feel so so blessed to have had her be part of our wedding. Having her throughout the whole day was so great, she was a source of calmness in the midst of all the craziness and definitely made sure we stayed on task and on schedule throughout the night. She captured our big day so well and we're so grateful, not only for the lifelong memories we have from her photos, but also to have gotten to meet her and become friends. Would absolutely recommend working with Sarah for any occasion.”

Liz & Peter – March 2023

“We stumbled upon Sarah's work on Instagram during our search for a wedding photographer, and we are SO happy we did! Our wedding was sizable, with over 250 guests - yet Sarah managed to capture every moment flawlessly without the need for a second shooter. She wasn't just our photographer; she became an integral part of our wedding day, navigating the chaos with us!

Having worked with Sarah on three separate occasions now, we can confidently say that she consistently exceeds expectations. Her professionalism, kindness, and unwavering attention to detail shines through with every interaction. Our guests and bridal party had nothing but great things to say about her after our wedding!

Sarah's talent behind the lens is unparalleled – we would give her 100 stars if we could! We would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a wedding photographer and we cannot wait to have her capture more of our cherished moments for years to come!”

Teresa & Minh – April 2024

“My husband and I frequently talk about how having Sarah as our wedding photographer was one of the best parts of our day. From our very first meeting Sarah was attentive, professional and genuine. She was so much more than a photographer and made sure our day was perfect, going above and beyond what she had to. We have stunning photographs we can treasure forever and we have also made a lifelong friend.”

Courtney & Joe - December 2022

I would choose her over and over again! Her professionalism, kindness, and talent with the camera are all top tier! LOVE LOVE LOVE Sarah Lessley Photography!”

When should I book my engagement session?

We can schedule your engagement session as far out or close to your wedding as you’d like. If you’d like to use them for save-the-dates, I suggest booking them 6 weeks out from when you’d like to order them. This gives you time to receive your full gallery, design your card with your favorite photo, and get them in the mail (yay!)!
