"It’s no secret that Sydney’s work is captivating. You can’t help but be drawn to her unique style and the way that she captures each of her clients’ individual personalities. I love when photography genuinely feels like art. She takes aspects of a client’s style and personality and translates them into photos that perfectly capture a moment in time. Sydney’s style of photography isn’t trendy, but instead timeless - She’ll never go out of style. We knew immediately that we couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing our wedding.

Everything about shooting with Sydney was absolutely perfect. I can genuinely say that I don’t think our big day would have gone as seamlessly as it did without her as our photographer. While she is extremely professional and an expert at what she does, she also feels like a friend the second you meet her. We felt so comfortable with her both during and leading up to our sessions. Sydney was always ready to hear our ideas and provide her feedback to bring our vision to life perfectly. Planning a wedding was no easy task, but having the emotions and moments of our day being captured was something we simply never had to stress about as soon as we had Sydney on our team. I’d trust her with any project and recommend her to everyone. Knowing we have timeless photos that flawlessly capture the love we felt in the moment is something I cannot thank her for enough."

"Syd has an eye for making each photo shoot unique and tailored to the wants of her clients! She captures the fun, serious, and silly moments of shoots perfectly. Syd knows how to photograph well in so many settings, and truly captures the most special moments. 

Syd makes everyone feel so comfortable when photographing them! My husband and I loved having her as part of our engagement photos and wedding day photos because she felt like a friend and had a way of making the time fly by and before we knew it, she left us with the most beautiful images of moments we can remember for a lifetime. We cannot wait to fill our home with the art she created! I can’t speak highly enough of Syd and the experience she provided us. We will forever be her clients!

There is not a thing I would change about our experience with Syd! She went above and beyond to ensure we not only had the most amazing photos, but also the best overall experience on our wedding day. Syd truly cares about her clients and their experience and I can’t wait to continue working with her in the future!"

“I could not have asked for a more professional, friendly, and talented photographer to capture our wedding day! Sydney has such an inviting personality which made me feel more at ease throughout the whole day, and she has such a patience to her that came in handy with our rowdy families. Not only was she fabulous on the wedding day, but I felt comfortable asking her any questions and bouncing ideas off of her beforehand. She captured the perfect moments every time and we’re so thankful we had her to capture the best day of our lives. Seriously, I could go on forever about how amazing she is. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! I can never say it enough; but thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!"

“Sydney took our engagement pictures. She was absolutely AMAZING. Taking pictures can be uncomfortable with posing in ways you are not used to, but Sydney made everything easy going and fun! I did not feel awkward or uncomfortable for one second. What I loved was she played music while shooting, which kept things light-hearted and fun, making it easier to let go and enjoy the moment! She told us exactly how to pose, fixed my hair when it got in the way, and kept working until she got the PERFECT shot. Her style is so fun and unique! All of her pictures are absolutely stunning and she knows how to portray love, fun, and pure joy in all of her shots! I would recommend her to anyone. She is a true joy to work with and genuinely cares about capturing the best shots for her clients."

"Sydney is not only the coolest person ever but SUCH an incredibly talented photographer. Without any hesitation, I chose Syd to take my senior photos because I knew she could capture not only me, but my personality, as well as aesthetic perfectly. I put full trust in her to bring my vision and ideas to life. I was over the moon in love with how they came out and how much they represented me as a person. They were all I wanted and more. She brings something so unique to her photography that no other photographer can match. Without a doubt I would choose Sydney time and time again."

"First thing, Sydney is the sweetest person I have ever met. She was very easy to talk to and made the process very easy! Sydney was very organized with setting up my senior photos. She set up a zoom meeting to discuss dates and to get to know me. She was very flexible about the creative process and wanted photos to reflect my personality. I received sneak peeks very quickly as well as the final photos. She made me feel comfortable and confident during our photo shoot. Some of the angles of the photos and photo sites were unique. She worked hard to give me photos that hadn’t been done before!"

"When the thought of my senior photos crossed my mind, my first thought was always Sydney. It was always a dream to have her take my photos and everyone just seemed to know she was the best. Every step of the process...from contacting her to getting my pictures back, she made so easy and enjoyable. She’s so young and already so talented. She’s also so fun and easy to work with. I loved her instantly. I was completely in love with how every picture turned out. She finds a way to make everything she does original and beautiful. She’s very patient and passionate and always goes above and beyond for everything she does. I am so grateful to have had Syd take my pictures, and I would one thousand percent recommend her to everyone!"

"We are beyond pleased with Sydney. She shot our daughter’s and son’s senior sessions and was equally remarkable for both. Every step of the process was amazing and easy! Sydney did a great job of communicating throughout as well as remaining flexible around busy schedules and unfavorable weather forecasts. She met with each beforehand to learn what their passions were and what motivated them. She did a fantastic job of incorporating these passions into their session to truly make it personal and a one of a kind experience. Sydney made it very comfortable for both of my children while taking their pictures. She encouraged them to bring friends or family along and played music to make the environment very relaxing. After the session, Sydney spent quality time editing the photos to the point that the finished set seemed to tell a story. Thank you Sydney for being so ridiculously creative, always being up for something new and adventurous, and providing us with pictures that we will treasure for a lifetime! You are a master at your craft!"
