Sarah Martins Photography

Sarah Martins Photography A lover of photography, aiming to produce beautiful memories for my clients. I am a Wedding & Lifestyle photographer based in Essex.

I have been married to my wonderful hubby Joseph for 9 years now, I love creating memories and adventures with my hubby, eat seafood, cuddle my Frenchie (Bruce) and capture the messy & beautiful moments of life. Over the past 11 years I have not only grown technically as a photographer but also in finding my style in photography - reportage / candid with those earthy / moody tones, relaxed couples

. If my style matches what you're looking for I would love to hear from you! I love to shoot with natural light so I avoid using flash where possible as this helps to create the most authentic candid shots. There is no greater feeling than capturing the secret glances, laughter and joy shared at a wedding.

✨ Where it all began… ✨

As I was thinking about what to post for this final chapter, I ended up down memory lane. I found my old work—my very patient friends and family posing for me like pros, and my husband chauffeuring me around like my unpaid Uber driver (thanks, love!).

This first photo is 15-year-old me, setting up a self-timer for a GCSE photography project. Back then, it was pure passion, a love for capturing moments and telling stories through images (although I still have no idea what story I was going for in this shot!).

I achieved the dream that 15-year-old me had. I built a career doing what I loved, creating memories that mean so much to me. But dreams change as we do. I’m not that teenager anymore, and what I want from life and work has evolved.

I’ve been fortunate to work with incredible people, share in their most meaningful days, and make friendships I’ll treasure forever. To every client, supporter, and friend who trusted me with your moments, thank you. You’ve been part of a chapter I’ll never forget.

I’ll always be a photographer at heart, just no longer in business. Now it’s time for a new chapter, new challenges, and new opportunities. Here’s to fresh beginnings (and maybe fewer late nights editing!) 💛

🍂 The autumn sun in October was truly breathtaking ~ my absolute favourite.

Capturing my beautiful friends' engagement in that warm, golden light was nothing short of magical, and a meaningful conclusion to my penultimate shoot before starting a new career.

What a stunning conclusion to this chapter.

A wedding that felt more like a laid-back summer gathering — full of laughter, table tennis, swings, slides, and zero pressure to follow tradition. These two did it completely their way, and it couldn’t have suited them more. 📸 I shot a few frames on 35mm, but also gave some of their digital gallery a film-inspired edit (the groom’s a big fan of the look). Most of the edit still carries my signature style, but I’ve fallen for the softness and nostalgia of this aesthetic.

One of six weddings left in my final year, and this one was a reminder of why I started.

S & B | Wasing Park, May 2025

What a dream day this was 🌿✨

I haven’t been posting much lately as I wind down my time shooting weddings, but this one reminded me why I fell in love with capturing love stories in the first place.

Wasing Park was glowing, and so were these two—every detail, every smile, every quiet moment was a joy to document.

So grateful to have been part of it 💛
