Your Wedding Day Should Be About Joy, Not Stress
Your wedding day is meant to be one of the most joyful experiences of your life — but between the timelines, vendor coordination, and your natural worry about how you’ll look in photos, it’s easy to feel stressed. Maybe you’re worried about looking stiff or unnatural, or you’re dreading spending hours in awkward poses while missing time with your guests. You deserve more than forced smiles and missed moments.
You deserve to feel:
Let's Make That Happen »
- completely at ease
- excited, never rushed
- and able to be present in every part of your celebration
When the planning Falls Short, So Do the wedding Photos
Many photographers show up on the wedding day with no clear plan, leaving you feeling stressed, rushed, and pulled away from the celebration (missing precious time with your guests!) for prolonged periods of time. Or worse, they stick to overused poses that feel generic and disconnected from your story.
We do things differently. From pre-day planning to scouting the best spots any kind of weather, we handle every detail so you don’t have to. With a personalized timeline, shot list, and a team that knows your venue inside and out, you can stay fully present, trusting that every meaningful moment is captured beautifully.

"Our photos turned out amazing!"
- Laura + Wilian
I had an amazing experience using OneLove for our wedding. From the day I sent our my first email to them, to the day they sent me my wedding photos, everything went so smoothly. I really appreciated all of the communication ahead of time, they really made sure to get to know you and take your photo preferences into account ahead of time. Day-of was incredible! My husband and I aren't big "photo" people and usually feel awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel super comfortable taking photos and boy did they work some magic because our photos turned out AMAZING! I did a lot of research ahead of time before choosing OneLove, and I hope this review helps anyone reading not waste any more time researching themselves: OneLove will do an incredible job!

Wondering About the Details?
We’ve Got You Covered
Choosing your wedding photographer is a huge deal. We know you probably have a million questions for us, and we have answers! Click any of the questions below to reveal the intimate details of how we'll make your big day unforgettable.
Don't worry, we're not sticking you with just anybody! While Sara only photographs a limited number of weddings each year, she is deeply dedicated to ensuring your photos are unforgettable. Sara will sit down with you during a personal consultation to get to know you better. From that, she'll hand-pick which of our One Love photographers will be the best fit for you. It's a very thoughtful decision, as she considers factors like your venue, cultural/religious traditions, personal style, as well as your personalities.
Since each member of our team is trained by Sara to shoot in the same style, and personally she edits every client's imagery herself, your photos are guaranteed to look exactly like what you see in our portfolio - no surprises!
However, this pairing is very personal - you get the final say. Once Sara hand-selects the team member for you, we'll send over your photographer's private portfolio to review and approve.
So happy you'd like to book us! We always say - the earlier, the better. Our May-September wedding season books very quickly, so we recommend reserving your date between 8-12 months in advance. We're already booking weddings in 2026 and 2027.
However, with our team we do sometimes have more availability, so it's always worth checking if your date is closer than that!
Great question! Most weddings run 6-10 hours. If you've already booked your ceremony and reception venues, we can get an idea from that. If not, don't worry! We'll ask several questions on our initial chat to figure out what you have planned on your big day that will tell us how much coverage you'll need. After 15 years, we have a good idea how much time, and how many photographers we'll need to plan for.

"My husband and I get a bit shy when we take photos, and they made us feel so comfortable and safe to be ourselves."
- Grace + Travis
We feel so lucky to have been able to work with the team at onelove photography. They met with us periodically throughout the year leading up to the wedding. We completed detailed questionnaires and had in depth conversations about our hopes for the wedding photos. Sara was so knowledgeable and professional, and she made us feel at ease throughout the entire year and on the wedding day. They were so gracious and patient with my large family and navigated complicated family dynamics with ease. We truly felt like they were part of the family by the end of the day.
