Sarah and Photistica Studios

Sarah was an absolute joy to work with.
From our inital meeting to our engagement photos we knew she was going to be a pleasure to work with.

Sarah is professional, dependable and responsive. She has been nothing but patient and kind throughout the entire process (Bride brain is very real).

On the day of our wedding she was an absolute Rockstar. When we needed something relayed to our vendors or DJ, she was right on it, even though it is not part of her job description.

She made our photos after our wedding fun and engaging, giving prompts where needed with our guests. During our private photos she was giving directions where needed, as well as going with our flow.

We cannot wait to see all of our photos once ready.

If we could give more than 5 stars we would.

We highly recommend Sarah for any event, as she is again professional, dependable and amazing to work with.

Sarah is pure talent

Sarah Danielson photoistica studios! Sarah is a pure talent not only with her photography we had the pleasure of a complimentary engagement session not only did our photos turn out amazing she took one and turned it into a work of art with her painting abilities! She painted one of our engagement photos which was showcased at our wedding! We had so many of our guests reach out to us asking who did the amazing work and being able to point to our photographer was a blessing! Sarah was with us from 1130 am to the very end of the night capturing some of the most important moments in our lives. We cannot wait to get our photos back to see what she captured and we know they will be everything and more!

Sarah did an amazing job throughout the whole day of our wedding, as well her assistant Andrew was awesome too! There wasn't really a moment that I ever saw either one of them without a camera in front of their face. Whilst seeking out a photographer for our wedding, she was recommended by our entertaining DJ, from the moment we first talked she was pleasant and very helping and understanding of our budget and totally worked within our range, we felt like we got very lucky to have been pointed towards her. Sarah was great to plan and talk with, she truly is a very personable woman.

Sarah is a wonderful photographer! She captures the perfect moments. The photos we received were amazing, fun, romantic, happy, cute, beautiful and unique! She is friendly, kind and pleasant from morning to evening while she was with me and the wedding party. Her second shooter was awesome and kind as well. I would definitely ask her to be my photographer again!

Sarah is someone who definitely has an eye for capturing beautiful moments! She was the photographer for my brother in law's wedding and I was impressed with her work! She goes the extra mile to ensure the client is happy and is an awesome person to be around. I would HIGHLY recommend Sarah. Even her prices are reasonable - can't beat that when you get an impressive portfolio of captured moments at a price that doesn't break your bank! Thank you Sarah for the amazing work you did for my family! You're awesome!

I am so thankful to have found Sarah as our photographer for the wedding. She went above & beyond to make our day special & capture it all through photographs. She was great at guiding us during photoshoots as well as taking candid pictures of the whole day. On top of that she was also nice enough to make a slideshow for our wedding day to play during the reception & had made us a second as slideshow with all of our wedding photographs. Sarah is awesome at what she does & was a pleasure to have as part of our special say. Highly recommeneded :)

Booked for my wedding and gave her a deposit. The package was supposed to include an engagement shoot but hen it came time she asked for money for gas to give to her boyfriend for driving her. When we tried to get a contract clarified she cancelled and would not answer my calls. Finally she texted back but we had to go back and forth to try and get a refunded deposit 6 weeks before my wedding. Out of all the vendors at my wedding she is the worst and I would not recommend her services to anyone.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
