Sarah Shipley
Sarah began her career as an ER nurse in 2013. She is passionate about family, travel, animals, and helping others. Her kind heart shows through in her photographs (especially those of children). She has an eye for detail and loves coming up with creative elements for shoots.
Sarah is also no stranger to running, having completed her first full marathon in 2024! When she can break away from her demanding work schedule (and pre-schooler), you'll likely find her on a yoga mat or running the trails of Oak Mountian.
