Hello! I'm Sarah,

The heart behind the lens. I started this business 10 years ago and quickly realized how much I love photographing couples and weddings. While I also capture families and important milestones, theres something about documenting love and emotions between couples that I never get tired of.

When Im not behind the camera, I'm usually spending time with my family, editing with a cat nearby, or relaxing outside. Being a wife and mother myself has made me appreciate how quickly life moves and how meaningful photographs become over time. The quiet moments, the laughter, the emotion, and the people you love most are things I never want taken for granted.

Choosing a photographer is more than just loving their work. It is loving them as a person as well. You are picking someone to not only spend the day with you, but capture important moments in your life. Choose someone who knows the weight that holds. It is not just a pretty photo, but a memory as it unfolds.

Hey! It's Carly!


Carly has a natural eye for capturing candid moments, stunning details, and everything in between. We've worked side by side at weddings, and her warm personality and artistic style make her such a joy to have on your special day.


Not only does Carly second shoot with me regularly, but she is also available as my associate photographer if I am already booked on your date. This means you can still enjoy the full Sarah Derian Photography wedding experience, with the same attention to detail, editing style, and client care you'd receive from me directly.


Whether she's by my side or leading your wedding day herself, I know you'll love having her capture your story.
