Sarah K Chen Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

I'm a simple person who loves photographing people and spending time with my husband and two little girls, Ellie (4) and Emmeline (1). My girls are my world and every day I wonder how I became so blessed to be their Mama.

When I'm not behind the camera I love to knit and sew cute things for my girls and bake cookies. My husband likes to say I'm a granny at heart, but I like to say I'm a woman of many talents. ;)

I also enjoy snowboarding, traveling and immersing myself in books. One day I will conquer Cornice and get down without snowplowing my way. I dream of traveling to Greece, Italy and Paris one day, but I have yet to convince the husband that traveling abroad with two little ones would be aweome. I'd also love to go camping and show my girls the joys of a perfectly toasted marshmallow and walking barefoot through an icy cold creek bed. And although I said it would never happen, I now read most of my books on my iPhone or iPad instead of a book. Have kids and you'll soon realize the gift of a built in light and always having your book with you.

I'm based in Orange County, California and ocassionally travel for shoots.

Sherri & Patrick’s Day After Session at LA Arboretum

I know I’ve been a bad blogger lately, but I’ve been so busy. Doing what, you ask? Oh, you know, growing a baby in my belly (just 10 weeks to go!). I will whole heartedly admit that this pregnancy has been kicking my butt. Hard. I’ve been working like mad on all the weddings/albums/shoots/editing in […]

I was a little worried about […]

Montira & Chat’s Condor’s Nest Ranch Engagement Session

I just got back from shooting Montira and Chat’s second engagement session and figured now would be a good time to show you all their first one. Montira and Chat wanted something a little out of the ordinary for their location and so we ended up at the beautiful Condor’s Nest Ranch in Pala, California. […]

Rhysa & Andy’s Wedding at The Langham

There was so much from Rhysa and Andy’s wedding at The Langham Resort in Pasadena that I loved capturing. The details were to die for, Andy shed tears at their first look, Rhysa teared up during the ceremony, both families were just so happy for the new couple, and did I mention the to die […]

Heather & Dan’s Wedding at Marvimon

I have this thing for laughs. I love big laughs, quirky laughs, laughs that are infectious and real. When I think of Heather and Dan, all I can see are their big smiles, big laughs, and their infectious joy. You can’t be around them without picking up on their energy. Having spent the day with […]

Beverly & Nelson’s Engagement in San Juan Capistrano

I love hearing how my couples met. The stories range from casual encounters to it must have been fate to we beat all the odds to be together. But I have to say that Beverly and Nelson’s story of how they met is one of my all time favorites. The two Southern California natives were […]
