For couples who want their wedding to feel real, intentional, and deeply connected to the place where it happened.
Cinematic composition. Documentary storytelling. Editorial refinement.
Live the Moments You Will Never Forget
It is an ordinary evening years from now. The kind where nothing special is planned. Maybe you are sitting on the couch together or flipping through a wedding album at the kitchen table. As each photograph passes by, something happens. You remember the quiet anticipation before the ceremony. The way your hands shook just slightly as the day began. The laughter during the speeches. The wind moving through the trees as the sun dropped low over the ocean. But more than remembering, you feel it. The joy. The nervous excitement. The exact moment your lives shifted into something new, surrounded by the people who mattered most. Those moments are not recreated. They are preserved. That's why couples choose Latitude 49 Photography.
Wedding photography should never feel rushed or overly directed. My role is to create a calm presence that allows you to stay fully present in the experience of your day. I provide guidance when it is helpful and space when moments naturally unfold. This balance allows for genuine emotion, relaxed portraits, and storytelling imagery that feels effortless rather than staged. From the quiet anticipation before the ceremony to golden hour portraits and the celebration that follows, every part of the day is documented with intention.
Sarah is a very talented photographer, while also being just incredibly wonderful to be around.

Behind the lens
I am the photographer behind Latitude 49 Photography, based in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island. Living on the island has shaped the way I photograph. Forest trails, rugged coastlines, shifting light, and ocean air all influence the atmosphere of the images I create. My approach is grounded in documentary storytelling with an editorial eye for composition. The result is imagery that feels cinematic, natural, and timeless. Whether photographing an intimate elopement on the coast or a full wedding celebration surrounded by family and friends, the goal is always the same. Preserve the moments that matter most.
