If you’re reading this and are on the fence on whether or not to book Sabrina, BOOK HER! I started researching elopement/wedding photographers that know Yosemite over a year out from our planned wedding date (8/8/20) and found Sabrina from Yosemite hashtags and loved her style. 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, and was SO accommodating to all of my requests. I even ended up switching what I wanted and additional hours the week of, and she did it no sweat! She got up with us for sunrise photos at Glacier Point, knew exactly how to pose us and chase the PERFECT lighting, and was even able to get my now husband to take serious photos, a task literally no one else has ever achieved! Sabrina spent the entire weekend with us and our family in one of our cabins. She was kind, easy to work with, and made us laugh and feel at ease not only on a stressful day with lots of details, but during a pandemic. We had to change our ceremony and reception location last minute because of the times, and she just went with the flow! You can tell she is passionate about what she does, and her style and creativity shines through her photos. I have worked in hospitality for a decade in luxury hotels as a pastry chef, and Sabrina is top notch! From her style, standards, and her own hospitality, she really is top quality.
Now for the photos. I, and basically everyone who has seen the photos, was BLOWN away at how amazing they are! I have had this vision of how this day would look for years. I tend to get disappointed by things because I plan everything and have seen/participated in many high-end events, but not this time!! I also have wanted to get married in Yosemite since I was younger, and she literally brought and captured my dream day to life. She seriously outdid herself. So please, do yourself a favor and book with Sabrina! You will not be disappointed!
Thank you again, Sabrina! Every time I look at the photos I am just in awe of your work. I hope we can work together in the future again!

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. We are so happy to have chosen her as our photographer and thankful she was able to accommodate us. When an unexpected fire forced us to postpone our original date, she reached out to us to make sure we were okay and worked tirelessly to reschedule another date for us. She recommended places to stay and vendors to use. Leading up to our elopement in Big Sur, she was in constant contact with us and even provided us with a timeline including all the moments we wanted her to capture for us. She helped us pick out a gorgeous location amidst the redwoods for the ceremony. She also scouted a place for us to take photographs after the ceremony and it was truly gorgeous. It was a cliff overlooking the ocean. She even scaled a cliff opposite of us to get the shots and they came out beautifully.
Then, we went down to a nearby beach and she captured some last shots for us on the sand and by the ocean. 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 so incredibly knowledgeable about her craft. Not just her photography skills, but also as she guides couples through the entire elopement process! From the start, she made me and my fiancé feel so special and celebrated – from tips and tricks, to location scouting, to thoughtful messages and gifty things, Sabrina helps you navigate the ups and downs of planning an elopement – however you envision it! Even with COVID regulations and wildfires, our elopement was captured and storied so beautifully with her skills. Thanks so much, Sabrina! Much love.

Sabrina photographed our sunrise elopement at Yosemite NP in August last year and honestly did such a great job! From getting up in the middle of the night (to arrive in time for the sunrise), to hanging around all day to do a sunset shoot as well, we couldn’t have asked for more.
The photos were beyond what we could have hoped for and being able to share such beautiful images with family and friends back home was great and hopefully made them feel less like they missed out on our day.
We found Sabrina when I saw a photograph of hers on Instagram and I instantly knew she had to be our photographer. I wasn’t wrong!
Thank you so much, the story our photos tell mean the world to us both!

We hired Sabrina for our elopement in Yosemite National Park in 2020. We had originally planned for a wedding but Covid had other plans for us. I contacted her very short notice, only 3-4 months before the planned elopement and she was able to squeeze us in! My fiance at the time and I wanted an extremely easy, laid back ceremony with very little planned as we wanted to enjoy our day privately but have these pictures to look back on forever and she helped us achieve that. Sabrina was incredibly welcoming and nice. My husband and I are both super awkward when posing for pictures but she made us feel comfortable and had many suggestions for posing to help us. She did not make us feel rushed, nervous or intimidated whatsoever. With it being just my husband and I, a videographer and Sabrina, she was an extremely pleasant person to have along for our sunrise elopement. Attached are some of my favorite photos from that day!

Sabrina is amazing to work with. I found her photos online and fell in love with every single one of them. I knew I had to have her for my elopement photographer. 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 hiked around the Olympics with us to several beaches, a waterfall, and a lake. We chased the sunset onto a dock just to get those last-minute photos. She captured our love and adventure perfectly!
She also went above and beyond with everything. My husband just had to have photos of us with his car and she stayed a little longer to get those photos for him! It truly made him happy!
I’m so happy I found her and I recommend her to everyone! Even with just her preview photos, I have started to make a gallery wall for everyone to see when they come to my house. I get so many compliments on how amazing my wedding photos are!
If you are on the edge about booking with her for an elopement, Do it!! It is truly an experience to remember. Throughout the whole day, we were getting congratulated by random people. She made the experience memorable and I will forever cherish the photos and memories for the rest of my life!

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. She introduced us to our videographers as well who captured the day just as well in video format. Her guidance for posing and photos was so easy to follow and relaxing, especially her advice of how to get the perfect champagne pop photos! 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. It’s a lot of pressure to capture such a day to look back on for the rest of your life, but she did it flawlessly and we can’t wait to show these photos to our friends, family, future kids, grandkids, etc. Could not be more thankful for the work she has done!

Sabrina was the first photographer I reached out to photograph our elopement. A friend sent me about 5 photographers to contact and I was immediately blown away by her Instagram profile and website. I was so happy she responded first and was available for our month notice elopement. We set up an appointment to talk about details and was very impressed with her knowledge regarding Yosemite NP rules and regulations regarding weddings, the best locations around the park, and answering any questions we had. She made us feel very comfortable and confident. Thank goodness for Sabrina because she coordinated our whole day and we happily worked around her. I would have been lost without her. We spent a wonderful day with her starting at sunrise, the majority of the morning, and met up before sunset. My husband and I felt so comfortable with her, like we were hanging out with an old friend. She really made my whole day. Sabrina had communicated with us that she had a busy schedule ahead of her and our sneak peeks would take a little longer than expected. WORTH THE WAIT. I was shocked. I cried. I was flooded with emotion from that day. I was so eager to share with family and friends. Everyone was in a “wow”. She really has an eye for capturing the love between two people and capturing the beauty surrounding. We are so happy with our photos and we don’t regret eloping at all. Best decision we made! We would definitely recommend her over and over! Thank you, thank you, thank you Sabrina!

Sabrina photographed our intimate wedding in Yosemite last September and it was honestly magical. From the start, communication was quick and easy and she was available to answer any and all questions. Leading up to our big day she sent out a booklet with helpful information (and some other goodies) so we knew what to expect and were prepared for the day. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and will guide you if needed. Everything turned out so perfectly and the photos are incredible! My husband and I are seriously blown away by how everything turned out and we can’t thank her enough!!

I could not recommend Sabrina enough! Sabrina photographed our intimate elopement ceremony in Big Sur, CA. Booking a photographer overseas is a daunting task but after seeing Sabrina’s work on Instagram I was sure she would be perfect, she was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process and really put our minds at ease. On the day, Sabrina was punctual, professional and welcoming, it really did feel like meeting an old friend and made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos we received back blew us both away and we are so glad we will have them to cherish for the rest of our lives. Thank you Sabrina!

Sabrina is simply amazing. She is a brilliant photographer and was always available before the wedding to discuss details and plan our special day. She made us feel like we have known her forever, which translates in amazing natural pictures. We loved our experience ❤️ and the pictures are beautiful.
