Motherhood + Baby + Family Photography

Serving Anchorage, Alaska. Available for Travel statewide and beyond.

Hi, I'm Sarah

I’m the face behind Blueberry Hill Photography. I’m a wife, a mom, a lifelong Alaskan, and lover of all things 90’s.

I’ve been documenting families and their memories since 2015. From those first wrinkly-toe moments in the hospital to chasing toddlers in fields full of fireweed— no moment is too big or too small.

My photo philosophy really changed once I became a mom. Up until that point, I didn’t really understand how important photos could be at stopping time. Once my babies no longer easily fit in my hands, pictures were the only tangible thing I had to remind me of those early days, and I became obsessed with documenting my own kids— as well as documenting that time for others.

These days are messy, exhausting, and gorgeous. I like to think that my photography style is storytelling with a side of magic realism, and I hope that one day, the photos we create together will be your own children’s most prized-possessions.

Coffee and Playground Mornings | Anchorage Documentary-style Family Session

Maternity Session at the Anchorage Municipal Greenhouse

The Mann Leiser Memorial Greenhouse is an Anchorage gem and an amazing photo location! Chances are if you follow any photographer in Anchorage (maybe even Alaska!?) you've seen this spot show up on your social media. It is stunning in it's own right, but it is also my favorite weather back-up plan for photos.

Anchorage Newborn & Bedtime Session

We put our kids to bed every night. The same routines become part of your family's story, some of the first memories for your kids. The books you read together, the silly songs you make up about jammies and tooth brushes, the bath toys. But how often do we think of photographing those things and honoring how truly important they really are? This family booked a bedtime routine photo session.

Anchorage Bluff with 8-Month Old

Anchorage Cozy Newborn Session

The early winter months in Anchorage hold a special kind of magic. The first snow seems to quiet the whole world and I love the draw to slow down and be cozy. In a lot of ways, it is reminiscent to those early days at home with a newborn. I really love that this session seemed to capture that sense of hygge (the art of coziness) and quiet.

Snowy Day Family Session

I love when families want to capture activities that they enjoy. Fun activities are one of the best ways to get those genuine, unposed moments that truly showcase the love and bond within a family. Add in a little record-setting snow and you’ve got a recipe for magic.

Over the years I have hired several different people to photograph my family and Sarah was the absolute best. Not only did she provide us with so many beautiful, artistic, timeless, fun, candid images but because she has a way with people (and especially children) that puts you at ease and makes you feel great about yourself. That is the kind of person you want taking your family photos, trust me! Look no further!

- Ariel

Sarah is a wonderful, gentle, understanding soul when it comes to photographing babies! She made us instantly feel at ease at our first session with our new baby and we look forward to working with her in the future! She has a talent for capturing the honest beauty of families and we treasure the photos she has taken for us.

-Jamie

Sarah did such an amazing job— not only on the photos, but also helping create sweet little moments and memories from our session. I'm pretty sure we should be in some sort of magazine now! We loved working with her.

-Brandon

I didn’t even realize there was a moment there, but somehow Sarah turned a normal morning into all of these special moments. It’s true! In Sarah’s hands, our life -- a messy toddler, a messy house -- turned into beautiful moments that truly capture what our life is like right now. If I could give them anything after I am gone, it would be these photos, when they were so little, of a normal morning -- a normal beautiful morning.

-Sarah

We LOVED working with Sarah!! She really knows how to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. My fiancé and I had so much fun at our engagement session and the pictures are stunning!! Seriously, if you’re looking for a photographer look no further!

- Emily

I’ve had two maternity sessions with Sarah, and both times she was willing to freeze while keeping a fun, upbeat attitude the whole time. She would check the back of the camera and exclaim, “Oh yeah!” “More of that!” Her encouragement and excitement helped me drop into my emotions and because of that her work truly captured the joy of my pregnancy. Not to mention, she also helped me style the shoot by sending me dress ideas and she knew of fantastic locations. I just showed up and had fun!

-Tonya

In December my family had the wonderful opportunity to have our photos taken by Sarah. We booked a Christmas mini session and it was nothing short of magical! We’ve done mini sessions with other photographers before and it was a disaster every time. This session was not rushed in any way and was relaxing from start to finish. My family does not do well in front of the camera but somehow Sarah captured the love and goofiness of us all without any of our awkwardness. They are my favorite photos and I can’t wait to book with her again!

- Heather

Sarah is amazing! She’s taken our family photos for the last several years - wrangling babies, siblings, and dogs - and always while making everyone laugh! Far from the standard, Sarah’s photos are works of art and she brings creativity and a different perspective to every session. She listens to her client’s vision, and has great suggestions! She has the ability to make everyone feel at ease in front of the camera, and her photos truly reflect the personality of her clients. I cannot recommend Blueberry Hill Photography enough!
