Hey there! I'm a wedding & elopement photographer based out of Louisville, Kentucky. 

With over a decade of experience and a passion for storytelling, I specialize in creating timeless images that artfully capture the unique love story of each couple. Outside of photography, you'll often find me tending to my garden, exploring new hobbies, and actively working to make the wedding industry a more welcoming and affirming place.

Let’s tell your story

WEDDINGS

One of my favorite aspects of weddings is witnessing the heartfelt celebration of your commitment to each other, while surrounded by all your favorite people. The atmosphere created by your friends and family cheering you on infuses the entire day with energy and excitement. Despite my experience photographing nearly 300 weddings, each one holds something entirely unique and wonderful. I can’t wait to be a part of yours!

ELOPEMENTS

Elopements offer you the invaluable opportunity to pause and deeply connect with your partner, crafting a ceremony that is focused solely on each other. Whether it's a casual courthouse exchange or an adventurous cliffside hike, elopements allow for intimate moments that celebrate your love authentically. I'm here to collaborate with you, transforming your vision into a personalized experience that reflects your unique story.

COUPLES

Couple sessions offer the opportunity to capture the essence of your relationship, whether marking your engagement, anniversary, or simply celebrating your connection with each other. Together, we'll select a location that reflects you both, whether that’s cozily within your own home, amid ferns in a lush woodland garden, or even nestled in the ambiance of your local neighborhood bar, coffee shop, or record store.

I love capturing those intimate, raw, and dreamy moments throughout your wedding day

 

While I’m documenting your wedding, I operate somewhere between a fly on the wall and a member of your wedding party. I’m pretty good at reading a room, so I’ll know if you all need some words of encouragement, silly humor, or for me to stay quiet and out of the way. I’ve been known to make sure my couples stay hydrated and to ensure no attendants have their tags sticking out. Think of me as the wedding day best friend you never knew you needed.

 

 

"Sarah is a badass photography ninja genius...

...when planning our wedding, we were looking for a photojournalist-style photographer and we are so glad we chose her." - Dean & Lauren

"Sarah was such a source of laughter and calm…

Not only are we obsessed with how our photos came out, friends and family and friends of friends and family of family continue to praise her photos.”

- Janice & Quentin

"Her enthusiasm made us laugh and feel incredibly comfortable with her...

...I would highly recommend Sarah Katherine Davis to anyone looking for a friendly, creative, talented photographer!" - Micaha & Austin

You can read these reviews in full, along with more than 100 others, over on my profile on The Knot. I love all of my couples a lot, so needless to say when trying to narrow down quotes I got a little weepy. I'll leave you with one last favorite...

"Sarah was truly incredible on our wedding day. She put us at ease when nerves were high, guided when we needed direction, gave us space for much needed alone time and kept us smiling for the entire day. She is everything you need in a photographer. Our photos blew us away. She captured so many little moments (among the big moments), which turned out to be my favorite photos." - Jenna & Gavin

I want to document your real-life love in a location that reflects you as a couple

 

I love getting to know my couples with an engagement session so that when the wedding rolls around we feel like old friends. Of course, I also enjoy sessions outside of engagements— it’s so nice to celebrate and document a first, tenth, or fiftieth wedding anniversary and other milestones in your life. If you aren’t into the whole marriage thing that’s okay too - I want to document your love exactly how it is, no matter the label.
