WOW, crazy, the Robert Geller Sunglasses, I love that you guys have those, I shot his wedding in Brazil 2 years ago. HE is a really cool guy. Rock on.
your hair is amazing! (oh, + i dig your pictures too!)
*Sigh* Love it!!
If you look closely at a tree you'll notice it's knots and dead branches, just like our bodies. What we learn is that beauty and imperfection go together wonderfully.

Great last shot Sarah!! My Favourite :-)
lol, great last photo - perfect depth of field + great emotion! :)
What a great concept. As photographers we tell stories, and stories are real, and real life is full of imperfections, with the occasional moment of pure, remarkable perfection in amongst it. Thanks for sharing. :)
awesome read lady. i tried a few things i hadn't done before this past weekend at a wedding and i must say it was tough. i thought 'only 998 more times to go'.
Yes, I have really had to learn the wabi-sabi concept the hard way. Life is so much more enjoyable. :)
Ahhh..... You will do well "Grasshopper" (I knew that is chinese not japanese) But you will do well due to your desire to embrace the Japanese culture and beliefs.. I have always embrased their culture and beliefs since I was a kid. I grew up with many japanese and really love them as a people. My stepson grandfather is Japanese. I respect him a lot and we are very close. The lessons you can learn from them and the Wabi-Sabi thoughts are in measurable.. Also the "Yin & Yang" Its nice to see others are embracing it as well or recognize its value.. Love the crazy hair shot was that 220? or 110? plug in? LoL. Either that or you need to put a bounce sheet in your dryer every now and then.... LoL.
I love this! I love you (not in a weird psycho-stalker way)! You know how to say exactly what I am thinking or want to say. I know I am imperfect, my images are imperfect... but it is me and they are me.
Here's to wabi-sabi!
Sarah! We just missed you. My husband Chris's b-day was 4/15 and we went to the Ace to celebrate! I love all your shoots! Your work is so rad! I tried taking a photo at the bar and mine for sure did not come out as well as yours, haha!

LOVE the Rottie. a Mini Rottie.... so cute
OMG that and great and I heart them!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there is so much movement and emotional substance in these images. you guys just keep getting better at making that happen. wow.
My Dearest Team Rhoads - thank you are two words with a massive meaning. In all honesty, I don't have fancy enough words in my vocab that properly relay how much joy excitement appreciate and gratitude these images bring to us. THANK YOU is all I've got for now. Fingers crossed in 6 mths I'll have more ;) Happy Birthday CR!
Okay the 4th photo of the dog in your "Face" on the grass rocks.. I love that one.. But more than anything the 2nd to the last with couple in front of the tree is the most solid image. Because it represents "Strength, Roots, Something that stands the test of time" all that is said in that image which is a great thing to see when a couple is joining in a life long adventure such as "Marriage" ...
Marissa!!! you look so beautiful! these are such great photos!
Love, love, love! What a fun engagement shoot! I can almost hear Marissa's laugh in some of them! And I love how the kiddos were included!
Whoa! I was trippin' out reading this post! First, my name is also Marissa. I'm 5' 1" and my husband also proposed on our two year anniversary! So weird! haha! Anyway, gorgeous photos, the last one is amazing!
These two are adorbs to the tenth power! Love this series. I can't wait to find a guy, fall in love and have you take our pictures. Seriously.
xox

Great session....love the movement in some of them! Sweet couple!
Awesome stuff, Sarah. I love the B&W conversions -- Raised blacks rock! Great set :)
Love this shoot, I just realized I forgot to post after I spend an hour going through the 1st 10 pages of archives, but i guess I edit fast and was looking at as much as I could as fast as I could. Nice work. All of it.
