Just had to drop you a line to tell you how unbelievably AMAZING the two of you are! We could not have asked for a better photography team. You were patient, kind, and unobtrusive. We appreciate you for this more than words can ever truly express. Other members of the bridal party also commented on how great the two of you were. To be honest, I was dreading the whole picture taking experience because I am just not into taking photos, however, I have to admit I had a GREAT time! The picture taking portion of the wedding was actually one of my favorite moments. The two of you made us feel SO comfortable and gave us an opportunity to have a peaceful moment during our wedding to show our love for one another. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this!
Sarah, you were incredibly calm in the "eye of the storm" (referring to the complete and utter chaos in the bridal suite before the ceremony here ;) I can't tell you how much I appreciate you for everything you did to help keep everything under control without being pushy or forceful. You even helped to provide input on my makeup and hair! You blended right in just like one of the girls. We actually refer to you as an honorary bridesmaid because you really helped to keep everything moving along and under control. I don't know how you survived all of that. ;) It just felt like an old friend came down from Seattle to attend my wedding. I will never forget you for this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Chris & Sarah....You are beautiful inside and out. Words cannot express the magnitude of our gratitude. Your talent overwhelms us. Thank you for sharing this unbelievable talent through the lens of your camera. Thank you for sharing our special day and for taking the time to fly out for us. We feel blessed and honored for this gift. We wish we had more time to sit down with the two of you to get to know you, but you know how that goes. Hopefully, you will look us up next time you are in town so we can take you out for a drink.
Big hugs & hope you had a safe and pleasant journey home. Can't wait to see the photos!

Loved every single one. You bring out the special moments, love, tenderness, style and beauty in the people and the day. And all that couldn't happen to better people.
Fav! FTW! You need a 'like' feature so I can give you a million thumbs-ups!
Everytime I look at this blog, and truly see all of the amazing work that you produce, I get so excited that Kari and I are able to work with you and Chris... I can't wait!
@Joop wow. thank you so much for your kind words.... your comment really meant a lot :)
So, your photos are always fantastic. But this series goes beyond. Some of these images make me think of classic paintings. Unbelievably powerful.
I know you're gaining recognition as a photographer, but I have to think you are one of the most underestimated photographers currently.
I am more of a B&W journalistic photographer myself, but the color photo of the bride with the wind catching the scarf for instance - that's a true lasting classic image.
Yeah I understand you, sometimes it seems that I am always editing xD
The pics are wonderful I love the last one!
Beautiful pix, wedding and couple! I love all the colors of their wedding and the bride's shoes are so cool!
What an incredible wedding! Beautiful job, Sarah. I love all of the fabrics and textures, and they look like they had a perfect day. They are so lucky they had you to capture it all!
The awesomeness of these are hard to explain. Big fan of your work for sure! and I heart Seattle too.
the bee shot....are you freakin' kidding me? Sheesh! Amazing lady. :D
love the bridal shot with her wrap whipping in the wind! those colors are amazing! looks like it was a fabulous wedding. :)
Wow Sarah. These are so beautiful and I can totally see the artistic freedom you had in creating them! My favorites are the shawl image of the bride and this last one with the beautiful reds and oranges. Love it!
AYKM? I am FLOORED! These are stellar images. LOVE the bride's shoes...and what a beautiful couple. This shoot did not disappoint!
We are SO looking forward to our shoot in August with you guys...crazy thing...we may have adopted by that point...{if the timing works out just right...}
Great work as always!
NICE!! you guys are ridiculous. i'm continually amazed.
I'm so bored of telling you how great you are Sarah. I'm not doing it again...
.. oh, ok then...
You're f'in' amazing! :) Don't get all big headed on me though!
shoot! one more thing i forgot to mention...the image of your bride with the wrap blowing in the wind...omg............enough said. i love it. love love love.
SARAH! wow. i think this seriously might be my favorite wedding of yours this summer! i feel like i didn't even have to be there to know it was amazing...AM I RIGHT?
i love every single detail they included in their wedding. i loved the location of the b+g portraits, so darling! i love her fabric wrap and the way all the colors play against each other. you know how i'm a fan of horizontal images...but i think my favorite is the vertical one of them against that really beautiful cement/gray wall- looking at each other, holding hands, forehead to forehead--beautiful union in every way.
Uh...embarrassing, ignore that last post...it was suppose to go on your NEW blog post. Oopsies! :)
the bee shot....are you freakin' kidding me? Sheesh! Amazing lady. :D
you move me. no joke. maybe coffeeless evenings is your recipe for magic!!! in reality, you could be on a caffeine high and still deliver the most amazing images ever... jitter or no, you rock.
Great job Sarah & Chris!!! We love working with you guys! Thank you THANK YOU!!! :)
what a beautiful wedding...i love the details, the couple, the images. well done.
You photo are so cute, you colours and your scenes are wonderful! I loveeeee you workssssssss!!! *_*
I love the shot on the dock, with her veil flowing behind her... and too many others to bother mentioning, because I'd be mentioning pretty much all of them. Love the light, even in the reception photos.
so many cute details!
You did a wonderful job capturing all of them. I loved the angles and the colors.
G.R.E.A.T. job as always!
:)
I just love your work Sarah. Just gorgeous! You are such an inspiartion :)
Stunning photos! And the details of this wedding? A-Mazing! The flowers, the bridesmaids' shoes, the cake, all of it= loveliness :D
First off, gorgeous images as usual. Secondly, Fitzsimmons is great, but how can you edit pictures of pretty people in love while listening to songs about heartbreak and divorce? Just kidding really, but don't you wish that man would put out some happy tunes? His music is too pretty to be sad.
dock shots are amazing. great light and color!
Love the ones under the tree and on the dock! Lovely lovely photos!
OH my... LOVE LOVE LOVE these images... amazing!
Whoops, forgot to leave my name above-
Avedon fan :)
Yay!! lauren gets to have a baby niece. Super exciting :) I just went to Avedon's exhibit in NY. BEAUTIFUL work. I got his big ol fat book with the pink helmet girl on it. My favorite is definitely Dovima posing with the elephants. I also love seeing the thought process of him picking which image goes in the magazines with his red pencil marks. He is very inspiring :)
This is truly a beautiful set of pictures. Absolutely stunning and refreshing.
Wow looks like such a fun wedding and you captured it all so beautifully! LOVE your work :)
Super fun wedding. Gorgeous details. Perfect Sarah Rhoads wedding.
You're awesome! I alway love looking at other photographer's work, I'll definately be coming back here.. It's just beautiful!
I love the compositions here... really awesome stuff!
hey sarah ... it's so funny that i always get your updates on my google reader but i have to go into your actual blog to view your posts in the horizontal format. i love the way you lay out the series and viewing it vertical -y (is that a word?) just doesn't do it justice. anyway ... stunning work as always! miss ya ... carmen
I love all details and couple is gorgeous! Artistic photographs!!!!
Their work is great, but their professional, attitude and perspective are even more amazing. Fabulous to work with!
fantastic!
So amazing Sarah! LOVE those stairs you found!
I've been following your blog for a little while, just wanted to let you guys know I really admire your photography! I like your outlook on life/love and it shines through the pictures. I'm glad I stumbled across you and Chris. =) Time for me to stumble off somewhere else now.
being an Apple employee.... married to an Apple employee... I hereby feel truly certified in saying... PURE AND UTTER BLISS.
One word: Beautiful :)
