~ 2009 ~
I like to do a post of just one image from each Sarah J Photography wedding. No, who am I kidding? I looooove to do a post from all the Sarah J weddings – it’s sooo fun for me to go back through and remember, feel the moments, laugh at the good times, go over the high lights of each wedding in my head, and take that opportunity to wonder what each Sarah J couple may be up to now… not to mention it’s a quick look at the different colors, styles and seasons throughout the year!
Over the months, I have kept in touch with many of you because of orders, ’wear it again’ sessions, through Facebook, emails and even referrals and I can’t tell you how much I love that about this business. It’s never-ending. It’s so rewarding for me to get that phone call or email that you may be expecting and would like me to meet your new little one or even celebrating your anniversary with another photo shoot…it makes me so happy to be invited back into your lives. It’s hard to put into words but just know that I love it! So….if you expecting please share with me!! Even if I don’t get to photograph him or her as a newborn, I want to share the happiness! So without further a do – here’s my 2009 group! A quarter of the couples were photographed by Mary Wyar, so I won’t (and can’t) take full credit for all of these great couples!! But do know that I’m very proud of this past year and look forward to 2010!!
woooohooo ~ look at all those beautys! Thank you Sarah J couples!

Sarah,
The strength it takes for you to be the strong independent woman that you are is incredible. I have stood by your side for many years and have watched you grow as a wonderful, respectable, talented woman. I know that everything you do–you do it to your fullest capabilities and put forth your best effort possible, with a smile. So I have no doubt that you tried your hardest, like you do in everything, at this marriage. Sometimes these things happen. It takes a stronger person to admit failure than it does for someone to live in a lie. I will never and I have a good feeling that no one else will judge you poorly for this unfortunate happening. We will judge you for you and how great you have treated anyone you have encountered–Joyful, loving, nonjudgemental, kind and always with happieness in your heart.
This is the day to look forward to the rest of your life as a strong woman, mother and AWESOME photographer. Determinded, focused and devoted is how I will always see my Sarah Jane. With that said, I am glad that you have taken this step in your life and made the grown up decision to make the best of your future. Not to mention the little man in your life, he will thank you someday for you fore site. Do not worry and focus on the important things–I know you know what they are.

Rochelle nearly said it all. I saw you struggle with this decision for quite a while, and many more since you have made this important life change. Those who know you well are aware that you did not take this divorce lightly, and that above all your thoughts have been as to what is best for your little man. 2009 has without a doubt been a difficult one for you, but I like to think it has also been one of hope for the future. You DESERVE to be loved and appreciated for YOU and all that you are. Just know that you have so much support from those who love and care about you!

My sweet friend Sarah Jane who I have known for 15 years… you are so brave and so strong. Thank you for always being YOU. Sometimes our first loves aren’t our happily ever afters…. they come later in life, the second time around…. The wonderful thing about you is that you aren’t tainted by divorce… you still and always will adore all your couples as they tell you their stories and beam with excitement about their upcoming wedding day. Because I was your FIRST wedding, I remember the excitment in YOUR eyes looking at me as we planned how you would capture our special day. You are so talented. You have always been fantastic but I swear your images continue to amaze me! It makes me want to do it all over again. Love and miss you! Have a great 2010!
