The story of a photographer

Hello! I'm Sara Whittingham, a passionate and creative photographer based in Orange County, California. With over four years of experience, I specialize in family, maternity, and newborn photography. I understand that your family is precious to you, and I approach every session with the same care and attention to detail as I do with my own three girls.

For as long as I can remember, I have always loved and admired photography for its artistic ability to capture life's most precious moments and to convey any message, but it wasn't until I became a mother that I truly appreciated the power of freezing time through a photograph. I realized that these moments are fleeting, and as a photographer, I have the privilege of capturing precious memories that will last a lifetime.

My style is authentic, beautiful, and artistic. I believe that each family has a unique story to tell, and I am dedicated to capturing those special moments that make your family truly one-of-a-kind. Whether it's a maternity session where the joy and anticipation of a new life are palpable, a newborn session where the delicate innocence of a newborn is cherished, or a family session where the bonds of love and connection are celebrated, I strive to tell your story in a genuine and heartfelt way.

I take pride in building a personal connection with my clients, understanding their vision, and creating a comfortable and relaxed environment during our sessions. I believe that the best photographs are captured when you feel at ease, and I work tirelessly to make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera.

As the owner of Shots OC Photography, I am committed to providing the highest level of service and professionalism. From planning and styling to editing and delivering the final images, I pour my heart and soul into every step of the process to ensure that you receive stunning photographs that you will treasure for a lifetime.

Thank you for considering me to capture your precious moments. I look forward to telling your story through my lens and freezing time in a way that you can cherish forever. Let's create beautiful memories together!
