Testimonials

"My shoot with Sarah was the best investment I made during my pregnancy. She is a great balance of laid back and warm, and talented professional. Her love for the ocean and capturing natural beauty shows through her gorgeous work. I am recommending her to everyone. "

Ailish

"We have used Sarah for photos twice now; first for family and then for maternity. I cant recommend Sarah enough. She’s professional, easy to communicate with and makes everyone feel relaxed.

If you’re wanting maternity photos but aren’t too confident in front of the camera, try underwater! You can skip the hair and makeup, outfit choice and still end up with breathtaking photos that I know I’ll cherish forever.

I won’t hesitate to use Sarah again in the future!. "

I was recommended Sarah for an underwater maternity shoot by a friend and I am SO glad I booked myself in! Not only are Sarah’s photos beautiful and unique but she was amazing to work with. She is friendly, calm and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. She provided great direction as I am not use to being in front of a camera and was worried I would feel awkward, which I did not! The shoot was fun with conversation flowing making it feel like I was catching up with a friend. Sarah provided props to use during the shoot and a wardrobe which was great for a variety of photos. Her communication was always great and the final photos received were beyond my expectations! She’s really good at making you look good! No complaints at all, just many many compliments :)

"I had a sunrise beach branding shoot in March with Cowrie Photos for my business. The whole experience was perfection from start to finish! Sarah made it feel so easy being in front of the camera, especially while in the water, and she helped to direct me on what to do and how to position my body underwater for the perfect shot. The photoshoot was loads of fun and it felt amazing to do something a bit different and creative! Sarah absolutely nailed my vision for the shoot. I couldn't be happier with the final result – I'll cherish this gallery forever. (Thank you again, Sarah!)"

Testimonials

"I would say I’m quite camera-shy, which is why I chose an underwater maternity shoot I wanted something that felt natural and relaxing. A pool session was the perfect choice for me since I knew I wouldn’t feel as comfortable in the ocean, And wow, this experience completely exceeded my expectations! Sarah made everything feel effortless her instructions were so easy to follow, and she has such a warm, creative energy that instantly put me at ease. I asked if we could add some daisies into a few shots because they hold a special meaning for me, she was so excited to bring that idea to life. Other than that, I let her work her magic, and oh my goodness I could not be happier with the results! The way I see myself in these photos is exactly how I’ve felt during my pregnancy, and that is such a gift. Sarah is a true artist, and I’m beyond grateful for these stunning memories! "
