Sarah Rypma

Hi, I’m Sarah!

​

I’m a Kalamazoo-based family and commercial photographer serving Southwest Michigan. Since 2013, I’ve been documenting authentic moments and telling meaningful stories for families, businesses, and organizations. I love creating vibrant, timeless images that celebrate connection, joy, and everyday life.

​

With a background in advertising, marketing, and education, I bring a thoughtful, people-centered approach to visual storytelling. My work is rooted in patience, trust, and genuine connection, helping clients feel comfortable and seen in front of the camera.

​

Whether I’m capturing a family’s unique bond or highlighting the hard work of Michigan’s small businesses, my goal is always the same: to create images that feel authentic, meaningful, and full of life.

​

I’ve had the honor of collaborating with organizations like Taste the Local Difference and Michigan’s 10 Cents a Meal program, helping tell stories that strengthen community and celebrate local impact.

 

Let’s create something meaningful together.
