We are over the moon!

Sarah was absolutely amazing from start to finish, from first contact to the actual day to then receiving our final gallery the whole experience was perfect. On our wedding day Sarah was just amazing, she made everyone feel so comfortable and relaxed and was there capturing all the special moments throughout the day while also blending seamlessly with the guests, nothing was too much to ask and she was just brilliant in every way. We are over the moon.

Simply the best!

Sarah was relaxed, professional and made everyone feel at ease from start to finish. We were so glad we had Sarah, to be our photographer, she fitted in with the day perfectly and we are so thankful for the photographs she took of our day. They are lovely memories that we will always cherish and look back at.

Exactly what we wanted!

We got our photos from Sarah today (only 10 days after our wedding!) and they were absolutely amazing. Sarah really listened to what we wanted and took this on board on the day. The style is exactly what we pictured and we can’t wait to get some printed for our albums, frames and wall hanging. Thanks so much Sarah! Highly recommend!

So glad to have found her!

Sarah was the photographer for our wedding in February 2025, and we cannot recommend her enough. We love our photos so much, and Sarah went the extra mile to get all the shots. We were impressed by her technical skills too, working hard to get the lighting perfect both indoors and outdoors. She is so warm, friendly and down to earth, which made us feel relaxed to get some amazing couple shots. We could not recommend Sarah enough, and are so glad to have found her.

Amazing experience

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Sarah at Purple Kite Photography! From start to finish, she was an absolute dream to work with. She truly listened to what we wanted and captured everything perfectly — and more! The final photos are stunning, and we will treasure them forever. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond to capture your special moments, Sarah is the one.

So perfect!

Sarah was the perfect photographer for our wedding day. She made us feel really comfortable, which was amazing as we aren't people who love posing or our pictures being taken! She made sure to capture all the special moments of our day, including all the small details we put time into creating. She was friendly and experienced, and knew exactly where to go and what shots would look good. They're all gorgeous, and we can't recommend her enough!

Perfect photos, perfect photographer!!

Sarah was exactly what any bride would want, from first contact to speedy delivery and quality of photos. She helped make our special day (Aug 2025) even more special. It was easy to arrange to meet up to begin with. Communication thought was responsive and helpful. On the day she helped organise the guests to get the best shots. The photos themselves are absolutely fabulous. I would not hesitate on recommending Sarah and Purple Kite Photography.

Captured our Wedding perfectly!

From our initial meeting Sarah’s professionalism shone through! Everything we asked, she did including coming to my Fathers care home so we could get some shots with him. We are so pleased with our photos, Sarah really listens to the kind of style we wanted and 100% captured every aspect of our perfect day, I cannot recommend enough! And thank you for our stunning photos.

Beautiful wedding photos

The photos that Sarah from Purple Kite took of our wedding are absolutely glorious. She really made the most of the venue and colour scheme and the red of my dress pops in every photo. I was very grateful to her for coming a little out of her normal area for me, and her candid, largely reportage style meant that we have a beautiful record of the day without our guests feeling dragged through a photoshoot.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My favourite wedding memory is newly married Sarah and Rose leading their entire wedding party through the busy town centre of Berkhamsted to their reception venue, with cars and passers-by stopping to offer their congratulations. It was such a joyful day!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Timeless, relaxed, colourful, natural, joyful!

What about your business are you most proud of?

I'm very proud to have received such wonderful reviews from all of my couples. I just love giving them wonderful memories to treasure.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Start planning early and prioritize the most important aspects of your wedding within your budget. Try to relax and enjoy the planning process as well as the big day itself - after all that hard work, it goes by in a flash!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Evangeline and Ed's wedding was by far the most personal wedding I've had the pleasure to attend. Eva made metres and metres of fabric bunting to decorate the avenue of trees where they held their hand-fasting ceremony. She also hand-dyed the ribbons for the hand-fasting, and made fabric napkins for each guest to use during the vegan afternoon tea in the woods.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

They make an enquiry, we speak on the phone/meet, they hopefully love me(!) and book, we talk through details like timings, they get married, I capture beautiful memories for them!

What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?

Every wedding is unique, so I'm not sure I could pick just one. While I obviously capture all the must-have moments, some of my favourite images are the unguarded natural moments that you just can't plan in advance.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Don't let it upset you - the rain won't ruin your wedding but miserable newlyweds could do! If you're happy and having a lovely day then you'll get beautiful photographs whatever the weather.

Describe how you got into photography.

I've always been a serial photographer, and love collecting memories to look back on. I bought my first 'proper' camera to capture those precious moments with my firstborn and quickly became obsessed with photography. I was still working at my day job while I practiced my craft, took courses and began to build my business. Now I'm thrilled to be able to call my passion my day job!
