HAPPY HEADSHOTS FOR FUN PEOPLE

Build immediate connection and trust with your clients by showing your true colors and standing out from the crowd!

all are welcome here.

Fun, creative, and colorful headshots that showcase your unique personality and brand.



We've got you!

Gone are the days of the boring headshot where everyone looks exactly the same. You know what I mean—a gray backdrop and a generic voice that says, "A little more to the left...a little more to the right...now turn your shoulders toward me..." No thank you!

You need a headshot that shows off your personality and makes clients actually want to work with you!

Enter Happy Headshots. We'll capture your personality in full vibrant color so you never have to worry about hating your headshot again!

Color and creativity fuel my soul, and whimsical details make my heart happy! 

I believe in finding joy in the everyday, that real emotions are better than perfectly posed, and that building connections with my clients is what allows me to create honest photos and capture genuine moments.

My goal with every client is to cultivate a fun, creative, and approachable vibe. All types of people, all types of bodies, and all types of love are welcome here.

contact your hype girl

i'm sarah (she/her), your new quirky, color-loving friend!

...hey, that's me!

Her work is professional and of the highest quality.

As a person, Sarah is truly a gem and such a pleasure to work with. She radiates positive energy, genuinely cares, and makes the entire process of working together feel so easy.  Every project we've done together has exceeded all expectations I had.

I'm over the moon with how my brand photos turned out!

Sarah worked with me every step of the way, from finding a great location, to a pre-shoot prep call, to working her magic onsite! I felt super confident and prepared and Sarah is just a lovely person so it makes the whole shoot that much more fun.

It felt like having another friend at the wedding! She is the embodiment of warmth and light and playfulness and she makes you feel so at ease in front of the camera. 

"All the joy, all the excitement, all the love- she captures it. As someone who normally picks myself apart in photos, I don’t even notice those things in the photos Sarah takes because she is able to get something so much deeper than that! She captures the GLOW. We love her to bits and would ABSOLUTELY hire her again!"

I felt super confident and prepared and Sarah is just a lovely person so it makes the whole shoot that much more fun.

"Sarah worked with me every step of the way, from finding a great location, to a pre-shoot prep call, to working her magic onsite!  She also made a point to get lots of different types of shots so that I could use both photos of myself and product shots across a variety of platforms. I’m over the moon with how the photos turned out!"
