Sneak Peak: Winter Wedding - Danielle & Patrick 12-23-11

Danielle and Patrick met years ago while they were both studying at Michigan State University. It seems that nothing could keep them apart ever since. Despite living states away from each other due to work, they stayed in love more than ever, and were two of the happiest people I have ever seen say "I do".

Best wishes you two, it was my pleasure capturing your day and getting to know the both of you in the process. You are a wonderful couple who I wish all the happiness in the world.

Date: December 23, 2011
Reception: Martha Mary Chapel - The Henry Ford
Reception: Park Place, Dearborn

Since Danielle and Patrick were spending their wedding night at The Dearborn Inn we were able to take portraits in their gorgeous 1930's lobby. I was in photography heaven.

The Best of 2011 at Sarah Amelia Photography

"Understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possiblity."
- Oprah Winfrey


2011 was the year my business really began, and my dream was realized with the help of my husband and friends. The journey began with friends in rural west central Minnesota, then moved to Michigan this July. What began as a way of capturing the landscapes around me in Minnesota, along with family portraits became so much more, and very quickly.

To be able to have my own business and do something I love with all my heart and soul, along with being able to use my creative abilities has been a dream come true. I sincerely hope that 2012 brings even loftier changes and growth my way and that I get the opportunity to take more portraits with return and new clients, along with adding more weddings to my schedule. Here are some of my personal favorites, many of which did not make the Facebook page. I love hearing feedback from all of you! Thank you for being a part of the process and journey.

Happy New Year!

-Sarah

A busy fall at Sarah Amelia Photography

Here is a snapshot of the many fall portrait sessions I have done over the last couple months with amazing families, kiddos, and couples. Thank you for allowing me to capture these moments in your life and giving my business wings. I appreciate your support more than you know! Without you I could not have made this dream a reality.

And another share from our Cutest Kid Contest winner's portrait session at Greenfield Village. I could shoot there everyday, so much inspiration everywhere.

Fall is flying by!

Fall at Sarah Amelia Photography

"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."
~ Albert Camus

I headed out with the Monroe kiddos and their parents on a beautiful September evening at the cider mill in Northville. The light was magical, and the anticipation of cider, donuts, and duck-feeding was in the air for Faith and Gabe. Nevertheless we were able to explore the property and capture some awesome moments, only to follow that up with a full tummy of cider and donuts. What could be better?

I love fall.

Thanks Angie, Dave, Faith and Gabe for spending an evening with me, I had so much fun!

September Photo Challenge: Backlighting for Rock The Shot

I absolutely still count this portrait session as one of my very favorites. We were at a rural century-old farmstead in Minnesota at the end of May on a warm, summer evening and the light was just fantastically gorgeous. This is my favorite portrait I have from that night with lovely backlighting.

Check out the contest for yourself at Rock The Shot Forum

This is the first photo contest I've participated in, but it is high time I put myself out there among my peers for fun.

And, Michelle if you're reading this....I miss you and you are going to make a wonderful mother. Wish I could be there to meet your new addition in a few months. Best wishes across the miles.

Happy September,
Sarah
