The Sara Renee Experience
A Tailored Process — Stunning Photographs
I’ve been making photographs for over twenty years now, which honestly feels a little wild—I don’t feel old enough for that to be true. But yep, I double-checked the math. That’s over 10,000 hours behind the camera, doing what I love. If you’ve been thinking about finally getting in front of the lens with the people who matter most—this is your sign. Let’s make it happen.
01
consultation
Let’s meet at the studio and discuss all the details: backdrop options, outfit choices, etc. If you’re borrowing from the Client Closet, you can pursue the racks of gowns. You’ll also be able to see the products I offer as we go over your vision. I want to hear exactly what you want so I can make it happen!
02
the shoot
The day of your session you'll arrive ready at the studio ready to get your hair and make-up done. Once you’re glammed up, we'll dive right into creating beautiful portraits. This is going to be an experience you enjoy and that you’ll never forget! The studio is located in Athens, TN.
03
THE REVEAL
We'll schedule the reveal session about two weeks after the photoshoot. This is when you'll come back to the studio to view your photographs. You'll choose what collection or ala carte photographs you'd like to purchase. I can't wait for you to see your photos and how gorgeous you are!
04
the PHOTOGRAPHS
I will call you when your photos, wall art, or folio box is ready to be picked up. All of the products I offer are hand-crafted in Italy and depending on what products you order, shipping takes about 4-6 weeks.
05
THE THRILL
I can’t overstate just how much I love creating beautiful images. You choosing me to create photographs for you is an honour I don’t take lightly. I go above and beyond to making sure you have an amazing experience, with incredible results.
THOUGHTS ON OUR EXPERIENCE
“Photography is truly her gift and passion, but what also sets Sara apart is how comfortable she's making you feel and the emotions she's able to evoke. Her presence brings out genuine happiness in people and her ability to capture love and light and joy between people is unmatched.”
— Hailey Wood, Past Client
HOW IT WORKS
After Your Initial Inquiry
You'll receive session details and we’ll start planning your photoshoot. I would love to have you over to the studio for a face-to-face conversation!
Planning & Consulting
This happens before your shoot. A photoshoot date will be scheduled and hair and make-up will be arranged. We'll talk in person to choose what mood you want, outfits, backdrops, etc.
Shooting, Reveal,
and Delivery
Two weeks after making photography magic, you'll come back to the studio to see your photographs and make your selections. After that, you'll get to take them home to enjoy forever.
Heirloom Photographs and More
All photographs are printed in Italy on fine art paper that will blow your mind. You can choose from matted photographs in leather Folio boxes, a leather-bound Storybook printed on handmade paper with deckled edges, or floating framed canvases. All of the options are gorgeous!
YOU SHOULD KNOW
There’s no such thing as “unphotogenic”.
There simply isn’t. If you think you are, then you haven’t been photographed by the right photographer. I see you- let me show you what I see.
Arthur C. Clarke said, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
Combining shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, we’re going to slow down time and joyously craft beautiful portraits. It’s going to be marvelous, I promise.
“Time is a thief” and “Babies don’t keep” are TRUE cliches.
They’re cliches for a reason. Get your children and family photographed because babies truly don’t keep, and you will love looking back on their adorableness as they grow.
No regrets.
You will never regret having a beautiful photograph of yourself or your family. You just won’t. Let me take beautiful photographs for you.
My faith in Jesus is the best thing about me.
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, was crucified, died, and was buried. I believe on the third day he rose from the dead. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty, and from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.
Photography means “drawing with light.”
I think about light all the time. I love to notice it. I pay attention to it. The way it warms, wraps, slices, fills. Light is my favourite thing to think about. It’s poetry! It’s a metaphor for Jesus!
"Sara Renee's photography is truly art!
She did a studio session for my little family and the results are just stunning!"
— Alesha Noble McPherson
