Sarah Lindholm Photography

My clients describe my style as stunning, memorable, personal, authentic, fun, and joyful. These qualities reflect my ability to capture beautiful and meaningful moments while creating a positive and enjoyable experience for my couples.

It is recommended to book a wedding photographer as early as possible to secure your preferred date. Wedding photographers tend to have busy schedules, especially during peak wedding seasons, and their availability can fill up quickly. Ideally, it is recommended to book your wedding photographer at least 9-12 months in advance, especially if you have a specific photographer in mind or if your wedding is planned during popular wedding months. By booking well in advance, you increase the likelihood of securing the photographer's services on your desired date and ensuring they have ample time to prepare for your wedding. Additionally, early booking allows you to establish a relationship with the photographer, discuss your vision, and plan for any specific requests or requirements you may have. However, if your wedding date is approaching sooner and you haven't booked a photographer yet, it's still worth reaching out to inquire about their availability. They may have last-minute openings or be able to provide recommendations for other photographers who can accommodate your needs.

My style for candid moments focuses on capturing raw and unscripted moments that reflect the true essence of the occasion. I seek to freeze those fleeting, genuine emotions and connections that occur spontaneously, evoking a sense of authenticity and storytelling in my images.

To ensure that I capture all the important moments and details during a wedding, I employ a combination of careful planning, keen observation, and effective communication. Here are some key strategies I implement: 1. Pre-wedding consultation: we have detailed discussions before the wedding to understand your vision, priorities, and any specific moments or details they want to be captured. This helps me create a comprehensive shot list and ensure I am aware of their expectations. 2. Creating a timeline: I work closely with the couple and other vendors to establish a timeline for the day. This allows myself to anticipate and prepare for important events, such as the ceremony, speeches, and first dance, ensuring we are in the right place at the right time. 3. Familiarizing yourself with the venue: if possible, I visit the wedding venue in advance or arrive early on the day to familiarize myself with the layout, lighting conditions, and notable features. This helps plan my approach and identify key areas for capturing different moments. 4. Being attentive and observant: Throughout the wedding day, I remain alert and observant, anticipating significant moments and details as they unfold. I pay close attention to the emotions, interactions, and expressions of the couple and their guests, capturing the candid and genuine moments that tell the story of the day. 5. Working closely with the couple: I establish a comfortable rapport with the couple, making them feel at ease in front of the camera. This encourages them to be themselves and allows you to capture their authentic emotions and personalities. 6. Collaborating with other vendors: I maintain good communication and coordination with other wedding vendors, such as the planner, videographer, and DJ. This ensures everyone is aligned and helps I capture important collaborative moments and details.
