about Sarah Nann Photography
My name is Sarah Nann, and I am a destination fine art wedding photographer Colorado, also working in Charleston, South Carolina and serving couples worldwide. I have the pleasure of photographing gracious, passionate, and sophisticated couples that value clean, classic wedding imagery and a high-touch, elevated client experience.
Aerospace engineering leader turned destination wedding photographer.
Prior to becoming a professional destination wedding photographer, I spent a decade working as an engineering leader in corporate aerospace at Boeing and GE Aviation helping build the world’s cutting edge aircraft, and have a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Virginia Tech. You’ll never find me far from leaning on my engineering and project management skillsets on wedding weekends - I have a strong eye for every single detail, me and my team are incredibly meticulous and attentive, and I have a deep sense of responsibility for creating a seamless, stress-free experience for our clients and our partner vendor teams.

"We couldn't have asked for a better team to capture our wedding weekend. The attention to detail, thoughtful planning, & gracious nature made us feel instantly relaxed, & we knew that we were in the best of hands."
The philosophy
Wedding weekends are magic. They are filled with experiences & moments with your favorite people that can never be recreated, posed, or staged, as these days are once-in-a-lifetime occasions. It is an absolute privilege to capture my couple's weddings, and I cherish this responsibility with the highest regard. My cameras are constantly at the ready, prepped to anticipate each and every moment unfolding in front of me to document your wedding wholly & beautifully.
As a Colorado photographer specializing in fine art wedding photos, I capture joyful, real moments for my couples. Their final imagery is enduring, classic, and fully representative of the wedding day. Our couples can expect a photography team wholly focused on being professional, proactive, and decisive to ensure the highest quality experience from start to finish. What's important to you is equally as important to us, and our photography philosophy has been rooted in this concept from the very start.
what's most important to you is equally as important to us.
the snp experience
Noticing both the beauty & the emotions.
my inspiration
01.
After years and years of photographing wedding celebrations, I have developed a keen, artistic eye behind the cameras. I believe weddings are a balance of both beautiful things and poignant emotions, and thus, I photograph the both honestly and exquisitely. In the hustle & bustle of a wedding weekend, I am able to cut through the noise to find the beauty in every single moment that unfolds in front of my lenses.
An international flair to all our images.
my inspiration
02.
Global travel has always been a source of inspiration for me - the historic architecture, hidden streets, overflowing gardens, distinct lighting, and natural wonders around the world have been a joy to have in front of my cameras. We travel often both personally & professionally, and I speak French & Italian conversationally, which creates a sense of comfortability and a 'citizen of the world' approach wherever our cameras take us.
Unique, iconic love stories captured
for all.
my inspiration
03.
When you step in front of my cameras, the experience that you have should feel like 'home'. Your comfort, trust, and sense of confidence in me and my team are deeply important to us, and we create that comfort through the personal relationships we have with each couple, our distinct processes, and our organization-driven approach. I'm not interested in pretty locations - I am driven to capture your unique relationship on camera in images that feel like the real you.
Deeply rooted vendor Relationships.
my inspiration
04.
From our first phone call, through the months of planning and logistics, and to the wedding weekend itself, we are focused on working closely with your team of expert vendors to ensure that your wedding weekend vision is brought to life seamlessly and without stress. Me and my team have collective decades of experience, resulting in a fun yet professional photography experience in front of our cameras for you, your families, & your guests.
a Marriage of my own that is at my artistic core.
my inspiration
05.
My husband, August, and our own marriage, is an immense source of inspiration on wedding weekends as I capture others entering marriage with their forever person. Walking through life with him is an honor and a constant reassurance of being surrounded by love, joy, & calm. I know how much certain moments on a wedding day can mean for my couples, simply because I have walked in their shoes myself recently.
Meaningful, real Connections with our couples.
my inspiration
06.
At the very core of the work we do is the promise to know you and your love as we walk alongside you for one of the most important weekends of your lives. Wedding photography isn't a transactional relationship, but rather, a personal experience cultivated to create honest, beautiful, and real portraits of you and yours throughout every moment big and small.
The SNP APPROACH
Trends Fade fast. your wedding imagery should last a lifetime.
My approach to a wedding day is two-pronged: the first, to unobtrusively photograph the events and moments of the day as they naturally unfold in a photojournalistic, storytelling manner; and the second, to craft true-to-life, gorgeous, and comfortable portraiture to traditionally document your marriage, your wedding day, and the people present for it.
At SNP, we are ‘hybrid’ wedding photographers, meaning that we work in both digital and film mediums. Film is one of our favorite things to shoot with. It demands intentional image composure & careful consideration of each image captured. My editing style matches my film scans to be clean, bright, light, and airy. Skin tones are natural, colors are rich, and the lighting is flattering and bright. Film has a truly timeless, heirloom quality to it that will age well in the decades to come.
We believe in galleries that look and feel holistic, as to easily transport you immediately back to your wedding weekend. Sneak peeks are delivered within 3 days of your wedding, and final galleries are delivered within 8 weeks, including film scans! We hand edit every single image that gets delivered - you’ll never see us outsource editing. Our quality standards are extremely high, and galleries are reviewed extensively for coloring, lighting, tone consistency, storytelling, and a proper balance of portraits, candids, details, and the in-betweens.

Although I might be biased, I believe that choosing a wedding photographer can be one of the most influential vendor decisions you'll make as you head into your wedding weekend. It is a tremendous gift when the stars align, and me and my team get to work with couples whose personalities, desires, and values align with ours, in addition to them liking our work. At SNP, we have the utmost honor of working with couples who are gracious, kind, and sophisticated. They typically love beautiful, stylish details and gorgeous locations for their wedding weekends, but more than anything, are deeply excited to marry their person and share their wedding weekend with their favorite people.
Wedding photography is an intimate, joyful, & real glimpse into your marriage.
