Hi, I’m Sarah (she/they), a wedding photographer based in the Adirondacks of New York. I photograph weddings with care, intention, and a deep respect for the moments that matter most for couples of all identities and love stories.

My name is Saige and I'm a photographer from New York and residing in Colorado mostly. I love traveling and doing adventuring photography, I've been on the road for about 7 years exploring and traveling and photographing weddings for about 13 years. I graduated from Colorado Mountain College with my photography degree back in 2015. I Love to travel and am a perfect match for the laid back couples!

With an educated photojournalist's eye and a passion for real, unscripted moments, I've had the privilege of telling the stories of over 400 couples each one entirely their own. My background in multimedia storytelling means I don't just photograph your wedding day; I preserve the feeling of it. Based in the heart of the Adirondacks, I frequently service couples throughout New York State and often venture into the picturesque landscapes of Vermont. No matter where you're planning your celebration, my dedication to capturing the unique essence of your love story shines through.

I'll be your personal cheerleader and the third wheel you never knew you needed! You can bet I'll be saying "PERFECT" more times than you can count.

Get ready for a fun, stress free experience filled with laughs, high fives, and lots of "PERFECT" moments that will have you smiling for years to come.

Photography for people who dread being photographed. With 15+ years specializing in camera-shy couples, I've learned that your wedding is not a generic fantasy from the interne, it's a legacy. The industry pushes couples to perform for the camera, but when you already feel awkward being photographed, that pressure can erase the real, unscripted story of your people. My approach is built for humans who hate being photographed. I create an experience that melts stiffness and anxiety so the raw, honest truth of your connection shows up and the story of everyone who matters is protected.
