Boring photos can take a hike.

Photography for your walls and websites.

LET'S WORK TOGETHER!

Hi, I’m Sara.

You’ll find me trudging across muddy single-track, bushwhacking through dense undergrowth, wading into icy rivers, balancing on driftwood, or waist deep in heavy West Coast powder. All to get THE shot.

You know, that one image that tells an entire story in a single frame.

It takes dedication, research, setting one or two alarms, plenty of strong coffee, and a little bit of luck, but stretching my skills and creating unique shots are worth the effort—always.

SKIP THE WORDS AND GET TO THE VISUALS!

Hold up! It’s rude not to introduce myself…

I’m Sara. A Canadian photographer based on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

I’m a taco and tequila lover passionate about making images that make you stop scrolling.

I’m happiest when I’m outdoors with my camera in hand, exploring new places and meeting new people.

Plus, my bag’s packed whenever you need me to travel!
