Sarah Morgan Photography

Sarah recently did our son’s newborn photos and she was wonderful and the photos came out great! Sarah made the photo session process comfortable and stress free and she was very patient, kind and gentle with our little boy. The style of the photos were just what we had been looking for and we love them. We highly recommend Sarah Morgan Photography. Thank you so much Sarah!

Sarah was recommended by a friend, but still I waited a year before I actually went to see her. Boy s=was I in for a nice surprise! She made me feel comfortable and relaxed. We got some great shots and we selected the winning poses before I left. It was awesome!

For those of you looking for an amazing, patient, and sweet loving photographer, Sarah Morgan is a perfect fit. She has captured my family’s special moments and our very first family portrait. We absolutely love how it all turned out.

I recently had Sarah do my newborn photos and she was amazing! She sent very thorough instructions before the appointment, which were helpful — but I was still nervous going in because who knows what will happen with a newborn. As soon as I walked in the door Sarah put me completely at ease. She was so patient, gentle and created such an inviting atmosphere. Truly a pleasure to work with. The pictures turned out amazing and the experience of having the pictures taken was extremely enjoyable — although with the comfortable environment Sarah created, it was difficult for this mother of a newborn to stay awake through it! Sarah even accounted for the colors of the nursery when picking out backdrops and and outfits. Everything about the pictures and the experience was perfect, down to the last detail. Highly recommend!

Sarah was wonderful to work with! She was incredibly patient and sweet with my son and she even baked me cookies! I just came back from my viewing session and love all of the photos! Can’t wait to put my little angel on the wall! Thank you so much Sarah!

Where do I start! Sarah is AMAZING! It was extremely important to me and my husband to find the right photographer to take our baby’s first photographs and we did! Our doula/​lactation consultant highly recommended Sarah so we contacted her. We were in a hurry to have the photos taken right away since our baby was already 3 ½ weeks old. We contacted Sarah by email since it was late in the evening. She responded right away, and accommodated our request to be seen soon by offered to take the photographs the very next day! That night she sent us some very helpful tips of things we could do that night to help us have a successful photo shoot.
As all parents experience, the next morning did not go as smoothly as planned trying to time the baby feeding. I was considering cancelling the shoot because I was afraid our baby would be screaming for food in the middle of the appointment. But we decided to just do it anyway and I’m so glad we did! As soon as we showed up Sarah put our minds at ease. She helped us relax and gave us time to feed the baby in a very calm, comfortable and peaceful room before we started. Sarah didn’t rush us and was fun to talk to. She even baked us cookies right in the studio so they were ready right when we got there to help us feel at home!
Once the shoot started Sarah told my husband and I to sit back and relax and just enjoy watching her take the photos. She was so gentle and loving with our baby. And when the baby had a few «accidents» during the shoot Sarah wasn’t phased a bit. She cleaned him up and continued the shoot. She even invited us to stay after the shoot so we could eat our bag lunch and feed and change the baby!
When it was time to view the photos, Sarah helped us to pick out the best photos in a very easy systematic way. It would have been impossible to pick without her help because they were all so good! She has the unique ability to capture the best poses and facial expressions of our baby and we were extremely impressed. Sarah is truly gifted!
We had an awesome experience with Sarah and we HIGHLY recommend her!

Sarah is very experienced and professional photographer. I got her flyer from the company that I work, so I called her and left a voice-​mail. She responded it very quickly and we set up the appointment next day. I really needed my head-​shots asap, and I mentioned that to her. I was shocked with her quickness, so I got my pics. next day. I’m so glad that I worked with her. She is a very sweet, and genial lady. I’m very satisfied with my pictures. Highly recommended!

Sarah did our daughter’s 1 year baby photos. She did an amazing job. She was very patient with our little girl, and her studio was really nice. We’re very happy with the results.

My wife and I had an awesome experience with Sarah at her studio! We did a lot of research online to find a photographer — Sarah’s photos literally jumped off the page to us, making it a no brainer to choose her. She did such an amazing job with our little Emily, making it very comfortable for us and especially for Emily. She had so many fun options of hats & outfits to choose from! When all is said and done we had a ton of great photos, making it near impossible to narrow down our top options. These photos will be a part of our family forever — THANK YOU Sarah for creating these beautiful photos of our precious little girl. I would recommend Sarah Morgan to anyone looking for baby or family photos — you won’t regret it.

First of all, check out all the 5 star reviews that for mysterious reasons only Unilocal knows about, were omitted from this company’s rating. Amazing how those ones get the boot. Anyways, we have always used another professional photographer who was ok, no complaints yet nothing super extraordinary. Several years back, we were referred by a family friend to Sarah’s studio and ever since then, we have come back year after year and refer everybody we know to her. First and foremost, the quality of her photographs is amazing, as is her uncanny ability to capture phenominal shots. We have done several different settings now — my wife’s first pregnancy, birthdays, my parent’s 50 year anniversary, multiple halloween parties and family portraits. Each time we are treated to incredible pictures that are unique and just breathless to view. Her price is comparable, if not a bit less expensive, than other places yet the quality of her photographs cannot be beat. Plus, Sarah is an amazingly friendly person who not only cares deeply about her craft, but is a «people person» who is friendlier than Mickey Mouse at Disneyland. She always returns calls, texts and emails timely, even on weekends, is always positive and cheerful and is a genuinely great person to work with. After working with other photographers and then her, we will never use somebody other than Sarah. And, once again, the most important thing, the quality of her pictures, cannot be beat. Every single time we have used her, our photographs have been delivered earlier than promised and she works with you to ensure any touch up or other issues are exactly what YOU want, not what she is trying to force upon you. Equally important is Sarah is very honest: she won’t try to oversell you on pictures you don’t want or need and she is not pushy in her packages. She sells you what you want and need, not what she can sell to make a bigger buck. My only regret is we didn’t find her years ago. Trust me, you will love working with her.

When I was pregnant with our first child, I began researching local baby photographers so that I could book a newborn photo shoot. While I found several that seemed good, something drew me to Sarah Morgan Photography and BumbleBebe. I think, at first, it was my love for bees, and the photo of the tiny newborn in the bumble bee striped hat that started it! But once I looked through her online gallery, I was amazed. The other photography studios, while also good, just didn’t compare. To get an unbiased opinion, I presented my husband with 5 different studios/​portfolios/​websites, and said nothing of my clear preference. All I said was «Tell me what you like». He looked through one, then Sarah’s was second. He stopped there. He said we didn’t need to look at any others, this was his choice hands down. He did proceed to look at the rest, for giggles, and that made his and my choice even more apparent. Sarah Morgan Photography it was!
My due date was Jan 28, so we tentatively booked the photo shoot for sometime in the 10 days following that, with the understanding that babies rarely arrive on their due date, and that I was to contact her once I either went into labor or had the baby and we would finalize our plans. I went into labor and delivered a week early. We scheduled the photo shoot for 10 days later.
As a first time new mom, I was still recovering from a rough delivery and c-​section, and when my husband and I took our 10 day old son to her studio, we were met with a warm, comforting environment, soothing music, and COOKIES. Yep, cookies. (I think that sealed the deal for me!). We were booked for a generous time slot, as she understands that new babies don’t always do exactly what we tell them. We were given comfort and privacy to allow our baby to comfortably fall fast asleep. Once he did, Sarah and her amazing «Baby Whisperer» went to work. While we watched from the comfort of cozy couches nearby, (enjoying our cookies!), they captured some of the most precious moments we have ever seen. The experience was wonderful. Pure wonderful.
When the proofs were ready to view, we went back and went through our gallery together, and we selected the favorites (that was HARD — they were all so good!). We purchased a photo album, the quality of which I haven’t seen a likeness yet. Not only is it top notch perfection, but her stunning design work went unmatched. She has a keen eye for the camera, but also in design of the photographic elements that result from that camera work. We also ordered mini «brag books» for both grandmothers, and they still «brag» about them every day!
Fast forward a few months. While we were not planning to do a 6 month photo shoot, (we had planned on a 1-​year shoot), I decided to give a surprise to my husband for fathers day, and schedule a photo shoot for his 6 month birthday. We did just that. We brought some special items with us (like a hand made quilt his grandmother made), and a few changes of outfits. We did some absolutely adorable shots, including several casual family pictures. Again, a simply wonderful experience. This time, we purchased an «image box», which in my opinion, is one of the most unique ways to display photos! And of course, we also purchased more «brag books» for the grandmas! They will be so surprised!
The compliments I have received on his photos — both the newborn and the 6 month ones — speak volumes. «She captures his personality so well!», «What a doll, she did a great job!», «You have the BEST photographer!», «I wish I lived in San Diego so I could get my son/​daughter photographed by Sarah»
No, I didn’t make those up. My friends and family really said those things. And that’s just a sampling.
My son is almost 8 months old, and I am already starting to think of ideas for his 1-​year photo shoot, and possibly even a special family photo shoot with his extended family when they come to visit in January.
I can’t speak highly enough of Sarah, her «Baby Whisperer», and the whole operation. I am happy to answer questions, provide more detail, or whatever you need to help you make your decision. I know I rely heavily on reviews when buying goods and services, and when you are trying to capture something as precious as your newborn baby’s first days, you want to make the right decision. I can assure you, with Sarah Morgan/​BumbleBebe photography, you will.

«This isn’t the first time I’ve had professional pictures taken, however this was by far the best. My first reaction when I looked at the pictures was simply, wow! I was stoked. Sarah is all about quality. She paid meticulous attention to the lighting, location, and color-​coordination right down to the point of helping me select what I was going to wear for specific locations. Sarah has a warm, upbeat, and energizing personality which put me at ease in front of the camera. I will definitely recommend her to anyone I know who wants quality and professional photos.» Rickey Maxwell

Sarah is an amazing photographer and I’m so thankful that I had the opportunity to work with her. A mutual friend put us into contact after my baby was born, and she captured some of the most unique photos of my son! It was so much fun to be on the set and watching her work. I would definitely refer her to anyone searching for professional photographer!

For years I delayed replacing my old photo on my website and social networking sites. Like so many people, I strongly dislike having my picture taken. When I met Sarah through the Rancho Santa Fe Business and Professional Women’s Association, I decided it was time. Sarah immediately put me at ease. I didn’t have time to worry because we were joking and laughing! She clearly knew what she was doing and posed me in several ways in several different outfits. The result was that I have two photos I really like – no more vacation snapshot – now I have a real executive portrait! I have recommended Sarah to several of my marketing clients, and she has done a great job for all of them. If you need a new portrait, call Sarah!
