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.

I loved seeing the ease in which these two parent their babies. You know it can’t be easy with twins, […]

Baby Jalen

This gorgeous little girl commands your attention and keeps you on your toes. I love that I was able to document a full spectrum of emotions with baby Jalen. It’s so true to life. Moms will understand this, but can’t you just hear that newborn wail in some of the images? It’s such a distinct […]

My loves

I met Christine when she did a mentoring session with me a couple years ago and was immediately drawn to her. She has this ease about her that is both captivating and inspiring. Where does it come from? I still can’t quite put it into words, but she’s like an old soul with a warm […]

Baby Ruby : Orange County Newborn Session

One of the sweetest and most beautiful newborns I’ve ever had the pleasure of photographing. Ruby so slept contentedly in her parents’ arms and was the perfect little model for me. I was surprised at how often she smiled at just a week old, but not surprised that it was often at the sound of […]

The Chao Family at the Arboretum

I loved getting to spend time with this gorgeous family and had so much fun photographing them together. Little Emme has such an inquisitive mind, I was blown away by her thought processes and the way she absorbed her surroundings. In some ways she seems so grown up, but still so little in the way […]

You may recognize Gia and Matt as I shot their wedding three years ago at Greystone Mansion. They recently welcomed a gorgeous little baby girl into their family and came down from San Francisco to have me photograph them all together.
