A Texas-born, mountains-to-coast transplant, Sarah is a people-centered coastal creative at heart.

After 20 years behind the camera and thousands of sessions with passionate people, business owners, families, and brands, Sarah launched Elevate 757 to bring it all together: visual marketing, real estate, and an unwavering belief that first impressions can be beautiful and bold without losing the humanity behind them.

With a formal education from the University of Tennessee (Go Vols!) and a soul full of the need to serve and create, Sarah began her creative career in 2004, photographing everything from families to weddings, new moms, high-end restaurants and menus and start-up entrepreneurs. Since then, she has planted her roots here in the Virginia Tidewater area, where Sarah lives with her wild and wonderful crew.

Sarah always says that life is big, full, often hilarious, and always incredibly real. She encourages others in teaching that each individual’s history, successes and failures provide the perfect foundation for how we can best serve others.

At Annabelle + Ivy, Sarah combines years of experience with humor and her love for people to tell their stories in the most beautiful and genuine way. She is excited to serve couples, families, graduating seniors and women with the same heart she brings to her home, family, and community: grounded in faith, rich in joy, and always ready to roll up her sleeves and dig in.

Please be in touch and let’s game plan.  I cannot wait to help tell your story!
