I’m here to be more than just your elopement photographer

I’m here to be your dress holder, location scouter,

story-teller, and adventure buddy

Hey, I’m Sabrina! I’m a destination elopement photographer, travel junkie, adventurer, and proud cat mom! When I’m not on the road traveling, I’m at home snuggling my fur babies and talking to them like they’re my actual children (who else does this with their pets!?)

 

I LOVE being outdoors, especially in the forest/mountains! Nothing feels more peaceful than escaping to the woods and cozying up in a little cabin away from city life for a while. This is partially what drew me to adventurous wedding/elopement photography– nothing makes me happier than exploring epic places with my fellow adventurous souls, and getting to capture their love stories makes what I do the best freaking thing in the world!!

 

My approach to photography is simple– I want to capture your love in whatever way is genuine to you. Whether than means ditching the traditional wedding route and saying ‘I do’ on a mountain top or in the middle of the forest, I will be there to document your adventure. Come to me as you are and I will tell your story. To me, love has no boundaries or rules so where there is love, I will be there.

I grew up in San Diego but my heart belongs in the woods

Yup– you wouldn't think I grew up in sunny San Diego, but my soul truly belongs in the forest and in the mountains. Nothing makes my heart quite as happy as foggy mornings in the woods or glowing orange/pink sunsets in the mountains! I absolutely love exploring national parks all over the country but if I had to pick my favorites would have to be Mount Rainier and Sequoia (who can really choose am I right??) Visiting every national park is definitely on my bucket list!

This is me and my boo and our story is pretty cheesy

We met freshman year of college at Boston University as chemistry lab partners! After spending hours on lab reports together and finding other excuses to hang out we became inseparable and the rest is history! We both finally graduated with degrees in Mechanical Engineering (crazy I know!) and while I'm an engineer-turned-photographer, Oleg is a bad ass engineer and works at a company that builds rockets (there's never a subtle way to say explain that... haha)

We love to travel and have been exploring together for years

Ever since our first trip to Canada together, we've been exploring all over the world. There's absolutely nothing we love more than traveling together! When we were in college we studied abroad in New Zealand and then traveled all around Southeast Asia afterwards. In 2021 we tied the knot in Italy, our favorite adventure yet! We are always planning our next trip (sometimes before the current one is over haha).

These are our cutie kittens and yes I'm obsessed with them

Funny story about how we ended up with two cats. Years ago we took a road trip up to Sequoia National Park. We were staying at an airbnb right outside the park in Three Rivers and one night out of nowhere these tiny little kittens the size of my hand came crawling into our backyard! We waited to see if their mom would show up but when she didn't we decided to take them in! And hence the names Sequoia (obviously named about the park) and General Sherman named after the General Sherman Tree!

I started out taking landscape photos on my iphone

You gotta start somewhere right? It never crossed my mind to turn photography into my job but once I started photographing couples I completely fell in love with every aspect of it! It still feels so wild to me that I get to photograph rad couples and travel the world for my job but I feel so lucky every single day! I absolutely love becoming friends with all my couples and being a part of so many special moments! I wanna know all about you and your story so come say hey and let's make some memories!

What makes me different?
Here's how I stand out
  1. I’VE BEEN TO 23 COUNTRIES AND COUNTING SO I HAVE TONS OF EXPERIENCE TRAVELING AND SCOUTING LOCATIONS IN PLACES I’VE NEVER BEEN

  2. I’M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR MY NEXT ADVENTURE, SO WHATEVER YOUR WEDDING INVOLVES YOU CAN COUNT ME IN

  3. I’M A TOTAL ANIMAL LOVER AND TREE HUGGER SO WHEREVER WE ADVENTURE TO I WILL MAKE SURE WE LEAVE IT AS WE FOUND IT

  4. I CELEBRATE LOVE IN ALL FORMS SO WHATEVER RACE, ORIENTATION, SHAPE OR SIZE YOU ARE I WILL BE THERE TO TELL YOUR STORY

  5. I’VE FLOWN TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD TO DOCUMENT LOVE SO THERE’S NOWHERE I WON’T GO TO BE A PART OF YOUR DAY

"Sabrina captured our wedding photos above and beyond our wildest expectations, but made it exactly what we hoped and pictured it would be! She found the perfect spot for us to get married, which we definitely never would have found on our own. Her edits are nothing less than breathtaking and she was able to capture the beauty of the location and the colors the sunset created that day. Could not be more thankful for the work she has done!"

"Sabrina was not the only adventure elopement photographer we reached out to, but she made the most positive impact. Her knowledge, talent, professionalism and friendly personality made her our obvious first choice. It was a magical day and we are honestly so appreciative and grateful for Sabrina! We originally considered her because her photos were astonishing but we chose her as our photographer because her personality was awesome!!!"

"Sabrina is amazing to work with. From day one we clicked especially our love for The Office! It felt like we have been friends forever and yet we had just started talking. On our elopement day, she was amazing super down to earth, and was willing to go the extra mile for some amazing photos! She captured our love and adventure perfectly! If you are on the edge about booking with her for an elopement, Do it!! I will forever cherish the photos and memories for the rest of my life!"

"If you're reading this and are on the fence on whether or not to book Sabrina, BOOK HER! I had a lot of questions and she not only answered all of them, she made the process really easy and helped me feel confident in my choice. She was kind, easy to work with, and made us laugh and feel at ease on a stressful day with lots of details. You can tell she is passionate about what she does, and her style and creativity shines through her photos."

"We had such an incredible PNW elopement thanks to Sabrina. She has such an amazing and relaxed demeanor - she is exactly the kind of person you want by your side on your wedding day. We were in constant communication leading up to our elopement day, and always felt heard. Most importantly, Sabrina's photographs are stunning and true to the natural surroundings. We can't recommend Sabrina Kaye Photography for your wedding enough!"

Let's get real
If you're looking for a photographer that is just going to show up, pose you in front of their camera and go home then we might not be the best fit

The relationship I create with my couples is extremely important to me and is what allows me to capture all of the silly, candid and intimate moments between you guys! I wanna get to know all about you two but I think it’s important you get to know me as well so here’s a bit of my story.

This is me and my boo! We've been together for 4 and a half years and our story is pretty cheesy

We met freshman year of college at Boston University as chemistry lab partners! After spending hours on lab reports together and finding other excuses to hang out we became inseparable and the rest is history! We both finally graduated last year with degrees in Mechanical Engineering (crazy I know!) and while I’m an engineer-turned-photographer, Oleg is a bad ass engineer and works at a company that builds rockets (there’s never a subtle way to say explain that… haha)

After we graduated we left the brutal Boston winters for sunny California!

We live in Los Angeles together now with our two fur babies, General Sherman and Sequoia and we’re way too proud cat parents haha. There’s absolutely nothing we love more than traveling together! When we were in college we studied abroad in New Zealand and then traveled all around Southeast Asia afterwards. We never stop talking about our adventures from that time and we’re always planning our next epic trip!

These are our cutie kittens General Sherman and Sequoia, and yes I'm obsessed with them

Funny story about how we ended up with two cats. A couple of years ago we took a road trip up to Sequoia National Park. We were staying at an airbnb right outside the park in Three Rivers and one night out of nowhere these tiny little kittens the size of my hand came crawling into our backyard!

Some fun facts about me!

+ Sabrina Kaye is actually my real first and last name. A lot of people think Kaye is my middle name or a pseudo name that I just made up!

 

+ I’ve been to 23 countries and counting! I can never pick an absolute favorite but a few of my favorites are New Zealand, Iceland, Italy, The Netherlands, and Thailand!

 

+ I’m half Bolivian on my mom’s side!

 

+ I’m obsessed with interior design, planning road trips, hanging out at the beach, eating yummy food, traveling around the world and of course taking photos of adorable couples!
