An associate photographer is a professional wedding photographer who works as part of our team.
Our associates are fully capable of photographing weddings independently and confidently. Each one has their own professional background and has been carefully selected, trained, and mentored to photograph weddings in alignment with our documentary approach and values.
On your wedding day, an associate photographer will be there to capture your story from start to finish, while Sara personally edits the final gallery in our signature style—ensuring the same look, quality, and storytelling you love.
In short: an experienced photographer you can trust, backed by the full creative direction of our studio.
More flexibility, without sacrificing quality
Booking an associate gives you access to our full experience, even if Sara is already booked for your date. You don’t have to choose between availability and the style you love.
A photographer who can confidently lead your wedding day
Our associates are experienced wedding photographers so you can relax knowing your day is in steady, capable hands.

Your final gallery is edited in our signature style, ensuring your photos feel consistent with the work that brought you here in the first place.
A way to invest in your photography
Associate collections give couples access to our full experience and signature edit, with the flexibility of a different price point.
Added value for 2026 weddings
Associate-led collections include a complimentary engagement session, a free film add-on, and priority gallery delivery.
