"Because the best memories aren’t just lived—they’re beautifully preserved for generations."



I'm Sarah Larson, a family, maternity, and newborn photographer based in Madison, Wisconsin. As a mother myself, I know just how quickly time passes—the baby giggles, the tiny fingers wrapped around yours, the chaotic yet beautiful moments of family life. These are the moments we want to hold onto forever, and my passion is capturing them in a way that feels real, warm, and timeless.


Photography has always been a part of my life, but it took on a deeper meaning when I became a mom. I found myself not only documenting my own family's story but also making sure that I was in the frame too—present in the memories, not just behind the camera. I know how easy it is for parents, especially moms, to focus on capturing their kids while rarely stepping into the picture themselves. That’s why I make it my mission to ensure every family I work with has images that include everyone—so you can look back and see the love, the connection, and the joy you shared in those fleeting moments.


I believe in natural, heartfelt photography—no stiff poses, no forced smiles. Just you and your family, as you are, in a relaxed and comfortable setting. Whether it's the quiet anticipation of maternity, the tender first days with your newborn, or the beautifully imperfect chaos of family life, I focus on telling your story in a way that feels genuine and emotive.


  • A Mom’s Perspective – I understand the importance of preserving these moments because I’m living them too. I know how fast they go, and I know how much it matters to have photos that reflect the love and connection in your family.
  • Personalized Experience – Every family is unique, and I tailor each session to ensure it reflects your personality, style, and story.
  • Comfort and Safety – Especially for newborn sessions, I prioritize a calm, safe environment where you can relax and trust that your little one is in caring hands.
  • Timeless, Natural Storytelling – My goal is to give you images that you’ll treasure not just today, but for a lifetime.

I’d love to help you create lasting memories—not just for your children, but for you too. Let’s make sure you are in the frame, part of the story, and present in the memories your family will look back on for years to come.
