It’s hard to capture just how much Sierra did to make my wedding day unforgettable. From the moment we started planning, she was incredibly responsive, scheduling multiple meetings to go over my timeline and vision. She even went above and beyond to help find a babysitter for one of our guests! Sierra also connected me with an amazing content creator who filmed our ceremony. The footage she took was used in a video ended up going viral (18 million views!) and led to us being featured in the New York Times and People Magazine online. Sierra's documentary-style photos perfectly reflected who we are as a couple, capturing everything from our welcome party to our ceremony, the reception to the late-night moment when my husband arrived the dance floor in a blow-up dinosaur costume. But more than anything, Sierra’s presence was the greatest gift. Her warmth and enthusiasm gave me energy during one of the most stressful moments—when unexpected rain drenched our guests and reshuffled all my plans. She kept shooting, stayed by my side, and made sure I felt grounded and cared for. Sierra is not just an exceptional photographer but an extraordinary person. I can’t recommend her highly enough. If you have the chance to work with her, do it—you won’t regret it!”

"Me and my husband had the opportunity to work with Sierra and have her shoot our elopement. The two of them together are magic and document moments we will never forget. They made us feel comfortable, and were amazing to work and communicate with. 100/10 recommend hiring Sierra"

"I am so grateful to have found Sierra on a mission to plan a photography session a week before my family trip to Oahu. She provided plenty information through her website, socials, emailed info packages and chatting over the phone to figure out what we wanted to capture and how to prep for it. It was so easy to work with her prior to the shoot, during and after. Thank you for helping Matthew and I feel comfortable and look beautiful during our session. I highly recommend Sierra for those who want something extra special to take home that they will truly treasure for life."

"I used to hate having my picture taken; I felt so uncomfortable in front of a camera, especially in a public place. Sierra helped me feel comfortable and eventually even confident, which was a first!! She fully captured the vision in my mind, without me even having the right words to explain it. I am so relieved I passed the responsibility of creating my branding to Sierra -- it came out better than I could have ever imagined. Her work gave me the content I needed to build my business and I am forever grateful for her help. Better yet, I can honestly say I enjoyed the process with her. Sierra gets my highest recommendation!"

"Sierra is AMAZING at what she does. I highly recommend booking a session with her. She made the entire process so seamless. She answered my many questions and always got back to me in a timely manner. On shoot day, I felt immediately comfortable and wouldn’t have gotten through it without her direction and tips/tricks. It was such a treat to work with her."
