Hi, I’m Sarah — a Kalamazoo-based documentary photographer capturing honest, meaningful stories across Michigan.
I photograph families, organizations, and mission-driven work — from homes and farms to parks, classrooms, and community programs with a focus on real connection, everyday beauty, and the people behind the story.
Since 2013, I’ve worked with families and organizations across Michigan, including:
-
Kalamazoo County Parks
-
Michigan Department of Education — 10 Cents a Meal Program
-
Taste the Local Difference
-
Schupan Recycling

Your Story Is Worth Telling
There’s a lot of noise in the world right now.
A lot of content that looks real but isn't.
I’m drawn to what’s real.
The rhythm of your home.
The integrity of your work.
The people who make it meaningful.
Whether I’m documenting a family or an organization, my approach is the same —
honest, observant, and rooted in connection.
Simple moments. Real stories.
