Sarah K Chen Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

If I love doing something, there’s nothing in the world that will stop me from doing it. Case in point: I grew up drawing on the walls of my house, much to the chagrin of my parents, who had to repaint the interior before they could sell it. Though I no longer use crayons to express myself, I still have that passion today for creating beautiful images.

 

I now use a camera to capture what would otherwise be fleeting moments between two people sharing in the excitement of beginning a new life together. There is little else that can evoke such strong emotion and bring back cherished memories as a well-composed photo, and I aim to capture just that with each one I take. I want my images to hold a special place in your heart for years to come.

 

I feel honored to be present at such a significant time in my clients’ lives and hope you’ll invite me to become part of yours, too.

A Dog’s Life

Akira thinks she’s a lioness. She likes to perch on the landings of our staircase and watch the action from above. Technically, she’s not supposed to be on the carpeted areas of our house, but sometimes she just looks too comfy to move. Besides, she just matches the staircase so perfectly it’s almost as if...

Alycia & Albert’s Engagement in San Francisco

Alycia has one of those personalities that just make her so darn likable. She’s forever laughing, has this adorable mischievous glint in her eye, always has a good story to tell and isn’t afraid to say what’s on her mind. In short, she’s awesome personified. And then there’s Albert. He’s tall, cool, collected and has...

Gia & Matt’s Engagement in San Francisco

A cool, crisp day in the city. Finally! We’d originally planned to shoot Gia and Matt’s engagement session a couple of days after I had driven up North with Ellie, but it rained. Hard. Originally, I thought we’d be able to brave the weather and shoot between sprinkles, but Ha! Spoken like a true Southern...

Baby Lucas : 3 month portraits

Oh how they grow! I shot baby Lucas’s 3 month portraits before the holidays and couldn’t believe how much he’d grown in such a short period of time! His face still looks the same, but he’s filled out and is sporting some delicious baby rolls! I held off on blogging these as I know Amber...

Happy New Year!

I’m finally back in town and back to reality! The time off spent with family and friends was much needed and flew by in the blink of an eye. My parents got to spend a lot of time with their grandchildren, Ellie got to meet her cousin (my twin brother’s baby) for the first time, ...
