Sarah Coates wedding photos
Sarah Coates Photos was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our initial communication, she was polite and helpful, taking the time to understand our specific photography needs and vision. On the day of the wedding, Sarah was detailed, creative, and captured the essence of our special day beautifully. She perfectly posed everyone and brought my photo inspiration to life, making our wedding look exactly like something off my Pinterest board. The final photos are truly stunning and we couldn't be happier with the value of their services. We highly recommend Sarah Coates Photos to any couple looking for a talented wedding photographer who will not just give you basic photos!!
Engagement Photos- 5 stars!
Sarah took our engagement photos and she was absolutely fantastic! My fiance and I aren’t great behind the camera, but she did an amazing job guiding us, and we were thrilled with how the photos turned out. Would absolutely recommend her for engagement or wedding photography!!
