You guys inspire me and make me jealous at the exact same time! These are just wonderful!! =D
I miss you. But I see you are doing wonderful things, still...
how do you always seem to get everything in the frame to sculpt to what you want... even the stinking dog stays in or out of focus... you are wonderful and we miss you
Love these! So fun...love beach photos. My fav is the one of the two of them sitting with her skates on and the puppy - adorable!!
I love these! They are so fun and happy! I love the one through the fence and their little dance they're doing!
I absolutely adore these photos! Plus Autumn was one of our faves on the O.C. Killah pics!!!
LOVE the one shot through the fence. and the one with their feet/skates and the puppy shaking is perfect timing... the dog in action really makes the frame.
Its crazy Taylor Townsend!!! LOVE HER. No acting here my friends,, none at all! Love the shot where it looks like he's bringing her up from a dip and the second to the last. How amazing it is to see a beautiful couple so completely in love. Well done my friends,, well done! Whoop whoop!!
-I'm giving you the fist pump right now.
Amazing images, as always. I think there are a couple of images in here that are MY favorites of all time..like the one with the skates and the cute lil doggie :)

*oh me, oh my. sarah + chris, these are altogether beautiful .

So as we look at the calendar we are filled with a lot of excitement and wide-eyed expectation for what lies ahead of us in the coming months! We are so excited about our travel opportunities for weddings/shoots etc. Below are the cities and locations we are headed to and when. If you have an interest in any kind of shoot while we are in your area, lifestyle family sessions, engagements, kids, band work etc. please shoot us an e mail. Drop us a line and we would love to chat!
We have been getting a lot of e mails from photographers recently asking about how we do things, how to process images, working with clients, and photography in general. It is so very humbling in a lot of respects, mostly because I have been in those shoes with lots of questions myself. I wish there was more time in my day to personally respond with all kinds of answers to each of you but most of the questions are quite loaded. We're starting to officially offer one-on-one mentor sessions that range anywhere from 2 hours to 8 hours. If you are a photographer and have an interest in setting something like that up while we are in your area please e mail us for more info.
Wow, Youre gonna be in MARFA TEXAS? what for? Id love to see ya, Im not too far from there.
Or is it personal??
Thanks for letting me know!
Dixie Dobbins
oh wow. I wish I had just half of your travel calendar. I am jealous-
It's about flipping time! You do realize of course that you are amazing right? And that the people who are lucky enough to snatch up these one-on-one mentor opportunities while you have time in your schedule will be getting a screaming deal?
so this is exciting....i get to see you twice during your fun filled travels! you have to let josh and i take you out for dinner when you are here! and marfa is going to rock our faces off!
I think a "Rad Rhoads Workshop" needs to happen here in Seattle! Try saying that three times fast.
Meet beautiful Cadence & Eli. These two were in my girl Eliesa's Photogen-inc 's Vegas posse :). Eliesa and I had talked a lot before we went down to Vegas and decided we just wanted to do a fun little casual shoot in the fremont district in old town Vegas. It was so super fun, we invited along some of our other girlfriend photographers to join in the fun...It is always so great to shoot with other photographers, the energy and the different approaches/styles and perspectives all come out and it challenges me to think outside of my "comfort box" it was really great for me to do. Enjoy a little bit of the tastiness that is Cadence & Eli in all of their royal-vegas sassy-ness ;) They brought the style, they brought the funk & I absolutely ate it up!
yowzers! im lovin the whole vibe of these shots!
nice work here lady. the pics have a seedy vibe. I likes!
oh my sarah, did you kill this session. every image is just a stunner. composition, lighting, the whole 9. you amaze me.

Great Session Sarah. I'm new to your blog, but love your work. Fave shot is where Blake's chasing Meggan across the rooftop. Awesome.
I'm obsessed with the last three shots!!
Nice. I really like the shot of the couple seen through the bridge supports.
Wonderful work! Well done from start to finish. great colour, mood, it's got it all!

Her eyes are so intense! I'm loving the last photo! :)
another homerun:)
these are wonderful...so inspiring! i can't wait to go back to chi-town and discover beautiful backdrops like you have!
I love this shoot! I love that you shoot so wide on many shots so that your couples have such a variety to choose from. In such a beautiful city I would love to have an image of the architecture where most people would have to search for me in the image! She is lucky to have friends like you!!!
BEAUTIFUL!
Love the "Where is the couple?" shots! and you really capture chicago's spirit aka the wind XD
Drooling over here.. your photos are just divine! I have to search every corner of your photo to take everything in. Gorgeous couple too!
Some fun framing fun-ness. And, love the second to last shot!
Michael: haha!! I was hoping some of you would appreciate those ;) I know I did. I was amazed I got the car shot... it was going about 40 miles per hour past me.
Olivia: All these shot in noon day sun on a ridiculously sunny day in Chicago... Session was 12:30-2:30ish.
Ok, you get 1,000 points for all the awesome photos, but you get an additional 1,000,000,000 points for the 'hidden couple' photos!!!! It was like a "where's waldo'!! Those are awesome!!!!
These are awesome, dear! What a great job capturing the city. Can I ask what time of day you shot? Please come back so you can take some photos of me. :)
Your images are always so full of life! You certainly have a gift for drawing energy and joy out of your friends/clients/models!
The more I look at your blog, the more I notice your brand. Awesomeness all around.
Sarah Rhoads. You are ridiculous. Your images just make me happy.
