oh Sarah and Chris you have spoiled me! You are the best decision I've ever made... well other than marrying Christian of course.
I thank you for your kind words, calm spirit, and vision of capturing the day. The pictures with my grandma melt my heart. My dad looks like he's the most relaxed, happiest dad ever! I absolutely adore my whole family and would love for you to join us for adventures to come.
Cheers to your awesomeness. You and Chris have showed me a new way to view the world around me!
wowwww, I loved your work, really spectacular, congrartulations fropm argentina!!!
How lucky are we? You got to photograph a beautiful couple in such a special place; the photographs are amazing as always. Your words especially inspire me and remind me why I became a photographer. Thank you.
that is the COOLEST arbor i've ever seen. love it. the pictures look like cannon beach feels. well done.
Sarah and Chris! Yet another set of incredible imagery. You capture moments that expose all the beauty and personality of your couples. You both inspire me so much! Keep the shutters going because I love seeing what you two come up with!
AH! I'm so past addicted to your blog! seriously I need an intervention! ;) your work is so fabulous and (I know you hear this all the time!) also so very inspiring!
Sarah and Chris, your images are so beautiful! Romantic, soft, real. I love reading your posts. Thank you.

This is one of my favorite places I've ever visited and as per usual your photos managed to capture the beauty perfectly. I LOVED every image!
Hi Sarah-
My sister sent me this link. Cannon Beach is my 'Narnia' as well. Christian even looks a little like Corey Feldman. Very appropriate for Haystack Rock. Kim is a beautiful bride. Great shots. I am having serious wedding envy. :) I think the shot of 'grandpa' is great!
Just beautiful. I really get a sense of a this family being close knit and truly loving of one another. Thank you for being true to your heart and your eye Sarah. I think I'm older than you but I still want to be you when I grow up ;)
WOW, WOW, WOW!! I sure do LOVE Cannon Beach! Spectacular pics, Sarah!
My day just got exponentially better by seeing these images. Thank you.
Beautiful pix! And that beach is beautiful as well!
I love the way you shoot! I always love looking at other photographer's work,Best wishes!

omgosh! whimsical bliss, indeed! especially love the shot with the rings and the twigs and the feet in the sand. love it!

incredible images guys!! wonderful visual storytelling!!
wow, you captured the atmosphere so well. i feel like i am there :)
very dreamy *sigh* you can almost feel the fog on your skin. it makes me want to hear some aqualung (take me home) :)
gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. the fog in these photos just makes them so moody. I love cannon beach and this really makes me want to go back. great photos, sarah!
This are so lovely, Sarah. I love Cannon Beach as well. Someone told me the rock just off the coast there was the rock from the movie, The Goonies. Wondering if it was too foggy to see it?
Thanks for sharing. I'm a big fan of your incredibly work!
What a fabulous party! I love this series!
Like I already told you--it's obvious that you shot this wedding from your heart. I love it.
Sarah & Chris,
Wow...these photos have left me speechless. Thanks so much for capturing the true feel of our wedding day. When on the hunt for the perfect photographer to shoot our wedding, If asked, I would have said that I wanted someone who would make it so we could go back to that time and place 10, 20, 30 years out. You did just that! Looking at these images allowed me to relive the day all over again.
I appreciate the two of you in more ways than one, your zest for love, life and your work is very evident and magnetic to those who are in your presence. I look forward to following your work over the years and having you capture more of our family memories.
Much love,
Elliott, Angela & Alexis Wood
The groomsmen and baby shots with the tree are my favs! FAB as usual.
great coverage sarah. sorry to hear about your car...but glad that you're OK.
I love the photo of the actual ceremony taken from up high. The exposure is perfect. It seems like it would be hard to get the shadows and highlights that even though. I've noticed how well balanced a lot of your photos are even in direct sunlight... you don't process any of those in HDR format do you?
I've been looking at your work for well over a month. Your blog layout first intrigued me...but the overall quality of your work is literally stunning! I shoot as well but not professionally.
I just wanted to pass along my thoughts.
Keep up the amazing work!
these are brilliant...i love the running shots and the last two are out of this world. i love the light.
absolutely breathtaking! i always love your style.
One of your best shoots to date! Beautiful!
Sarah & Chris, these images are breathtaking! You guys have such an amazing gift in the way that you capture people's moments in life. I am constantly blow away by your work!
Your work is unbelieveable!
Ahhhh Sarah and Chris, you nailed it. These are so sweet and beautiful. Excellent. BTW I love the little girl flying.
That is one of the COOLEST groomsmen pictures I have ever seen! Great Job!
as beautiful as all those WEDDING photos are, and they are, I am just left dreaming about spending a weekend there on the lake and by that pool. I need me some beach time right about now!
those last 2 make my heart melt! So warm :) Your clients are going to be over the moon for these!
Gorgeous spread, Sarah! I love how we get the whole vibe of the wedding along with the bride and groom pics :)
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!
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!
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.
Leda, I just heard recently that you were married this past summer and per chance, found my way to this website. (Ok, ok..... I had to do some web snooping to find ya!) I just can't tell you how touched my heart was, seeing these photos of you as a beautiful bride. I can't wait for Jo and Chris to come home from school today, so I can show this to them. They are going to be so surprised and happy! You have always been on my mind and in my heart and now I can rest assured that you have found happiness. I know I speak for all the Burkes (Matt, Pat, Kelsey, Chris, Jo, Gabe and Liam) We LOVE you and our hearts are filled with JOY !
With ((Hugs)) & Blessings,
Mrs B.
Oh... so so stunning.
Beautiful photos (as always), but wow-Leda is gorgeous and the joy that emanates from her just brightened my day. great work, sarah!
The pictures are amazing! You guys look like friggin models. Beautiful.
Wow these comments are so incredibly sweet. Thank you for the compliments, truly. Holly: the dress is Pronovias (slightly customized). But above and beyond the best investment in our wedding was in our amazing photographers, Sarah and Chris. They can make anyone look good! xoxo
Beautiful shots!
Too cute! The hair, the veil, the dress, and the shoes, I am dying!! It is perfection!
They have the most infectious smiles. :) I laughed out loud picturing an old couple giggling in the corner at a party. adorable!
I must know: WHERE DID THAT DRESS COME FROM?!?! I'm not even engaged yet but I believe this is the dress I want to wear on my wedding day! It's stunning. As is the bride and the rest of the pictues, great job!
Cannot get enough!! Seriously fabulous!!!
Love the images as usual. My favourite is the last image of the couple in the crimson red elevator.
Regards,
Carl
