My life is pretty simple.  I spend my days at my “day job” as a pharmacist on top of being wedding photographer in Chattanooga.  Then I spend my evening doing one of a handful of things: Shooting/Editing/Business Maintenance or walking/cuddling my dogs with my husband.  As 2019 was drawing to a close I really wanted […]

I have so much to be thankful for in 2019, both personally and professionally so I decided to do a Sarah Larae 2019 rewind!  Kind of like Youtube Rewind, but better.  I met all my photography goals and met so many amazing people!  My goal every year is to grow as a person and I […]

Im so happy you are planning a wedding in Chattanooga!  I was born and raised in the Chattanooga area and I love my city. I lived in Atlanta for 3 years, traveled around the world and I can honestly say I love living, loving, and working here. 90% of the weddings I have shot have […]

I’m always looking for new Chattanooga engagement photo ideas.  One of my favorite new areas in Chattanooga is the West Village.  The light is amazing because of the white concrete and bistro lights!  It’s just a trendy area with some cool spots that really captures the youth of my city.  Sabrina and Anh were the […]

I love it when brides pull in gems from their families past into their wedding.  The idea of honoring who came before them on a day they honor their own love is so romantic.  Laura wore her grandmother’s necklace and rings during her ceremony.  She also tied her dear grandfather’s ring around her bouquet.  I […]

Megan and Skylar might be one the the cutest couples I’ve ever photographed.  No matter what is going on I can tell they find security in each other.  The lean into each other.  That tells me that that marriage will be a long-lasting and admirable one for the rest of their lives. The team at […]

Danielle loves two things with all her heart: Chik-Fil-A and Chandler.  This wedding made that very clear in all the best ways!  Danielle and Chandler are truly best friends.  They were constantly whispering to each other and sharing inside jokes throughout the day.  They are both genuinely funny people who have found their person and […]

Holly and I have been close friends for years.  We have seen each other through a lot of tough and happy times.  We have hared more than few girls nights and therapy sessions.  To say I’m proud of her and how she has grown is an understatement.  We are very different and scarily similar in […]

Falling Water Falls & Signal Point Engagement Photos Kristiana and Ian had not seen each other in MONTHS when we met for our engagement session so the chemistry was ELECTRIC!  These two are so in love and it shows.  When I watched them together several words came to mind: Fun, chemistry, adventurous, easy.  They just […]

We didn’t exactly have luck on our side when we started this engagement session at Point Park for this Lookout Mountain engagement session.  We could literally see the rain headed our way over the mountain, despite the bright sunshine and blue sky directly above us.  We didn’t let the rain stop us from having a […]
