I believe that family is the most important thing in life.
And that photographs of the people we love are our most valuable possessions.
I’ve been a newborn photographer for over ten years- half of that time here in San Antonio.
I’ve photographed hundreds of babies and families and absolutely adore what I do.
I photograph newborns & babies in my boutique East Rockford home studio,
and capture families & seniors outdoors in natural light.
I serve families in Rockford, northern IL, southern WI and the Chicagoland area.
I would love to work with you and your family! Feel free to get in touch with a question
or to book your session below!







I’m Sarah, the mom-with-a-camera turned entrepreneur behind SLP. I've always loved photographing faces- especially the littlest ones. And when I had two littles of my own, those pictures I made took on a whole new and far more important meaning... Letting me keep their tiny miraculous details forever in a photo to remind me of their innocence and new-ness in this world, and the overwhelming love I felt in those moments (or sometimes- the ridiculous chaos!)
My goal is to create beautiful images of your family that you don’t just see, but you feel. I want to help you remember those precious details that make your heart go pitter-patter (because I know that feeling, too).
I'm not only a mom, I'm a former teacher and childcare quality specialist as well. I have over 16 years experience with little ones and have been professionally photographing newborns & families since 2014. Let my experience put your mind at ease so you can relax, have fun, and relish this fleeting time with those little people you adore! I want you to have an amazing experience, and give you service that's second to none.
