The art of storytelling


It's all about the real moments of your life. Not more.


My approach to photography blends candid, documentary, and lightly posed styles to authentically capture the connections between people. I focus on weaving these moments into a visual narrative that reflects the genuine emotions and stories of your life. This lifestyle approach ensures that your memories are preserved in a way that allows you to relive them with warmth and authenticity.

The art of storytelling


Capturing the genuine moments that define your life.


Life is made up of countless small moments... those authentic interactions that often go unnoticed. My goal is to capture those fleeting instances that define who you are and the relationships that shape your world. Through a blend of candid shots and subtle direction, I create images that reflect the true spirit of your story, preserving memories that feel as real as the moment itself.

The art of storytelling


The Art of Light: illuminating stories through photography.


Light is what brings every story to life. Whether it's the golden warmth of a sunset or the soft glow of a cozy room, I use light to highlight the emotions and details that make each moment unique. By playing with light and shadow, I create images that do more than just show what happened, they capture the feeling of the moment, giving your story a depth that’s as rich as the experience itself.

Hi Friends!


Hi, I’m Sarah, the creative heart behind Booth Creative Co. Growing up, I dreamed of becoming a photographer, inspired by the National Geographic magazines I would eagerly flip through as a kid. Today, I’m living that dream, capturing love, connection, and the beauty of life through my lens.


Based out of Wilmington, NC - I specialize in wedding, event, portrait, and food photography. My work is all about storytelling, whether it’s the quiet, intimate moments between two people in love or the vibrant energy of a beautifully plated dish.


I’ve been told I have a calming and comforting energy, and I truly think it’s my superpower. Whether I’m photographing a wedding or a family session, I aim to create a space where you feel relaxed, authentic, and completely yourself. I’ll even act a little silly if it means getting genuine smiles, pretending to be a gorilla is a proven favorite for kids!


When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring nature, hiking, or planning our next trip... we love to travel and connect with new places. My wife is my travel buddy, best friend, and biggest supporter, and our sweet pup G completes our little family. G is my shadow, my soul dog, and the best assistant I could ever ask for.


I believe photography is more than just images, it’s a way to hold on to moments, tell stories, and create something meaningful. I’d love to connect with you and help capture your memories in a way that feels true to you.
