I'm a Nashville wedding photographer, and I love telling real people's love stories. I'm passionate about the experiences that make life special, and I think your wedding deserves to be captured authentically and with care — both the quiet and unseen moments as well as the heart-stirring, spectacular moments.
After dabbling in photography in high school and studying professional photography in college, I tried my hand at fashion and music photography, but it felt like something was missing. When I shot my first wedding, I discovered my passion for storytelling and the joy of being invited into the most important moments of someone’s life...and I’ve never looked back. Even 15 years later I still get so excited and a little teary eyed with each new couple I meet.
I believe the first step in getting amazing photos is getting to know each other...so I’ll go first! I was born and raised in Wisconsin, and yes, all the stereotypes about us loving beer and cheese are true. I’m a sucker for a good true crime podcast or any show that makes me cry, I can geek out over musical theater with the best of them and my perfect Friday night includes a glass of red wine, though I’m not above a cold beer in the summer. I grew up traveling all over with my family, and I am always ready to hop on a plane to wherever your love story takes you, whether that’s Branson or Bali.
I’m also an Enneagram 9, which means my superpower is tuning into little details like these when it comes to you! I love watching, observing and catching the candid, unplanned and tug-at-the-heartstrings moments that happen during a wedding, from the mist in your dad’s eyes as he walks you down the aisle to the way your mom straightens your tie one last time.
So, as you plan every perfect detail, I’d love to chat about how I can capture them for you. I can’t wait to meet you and hear about your special day!
Hey, I'm Sara!
Here's a snapshot into my world.
A Little Behind The Scenes Of My Life
We sat down tonight with a glass of wine and completely re-lived our wedding day all over again. It’s more beautiful than we could have imagined and we got to see things from your perspective that we missed during all the rushing around. You are a true artist and have the most lovely eye for gorgeous detail. There are so many photos that made us want to cry and many that made us laugh out loud! Our album is absolutely stunning and everything we could have ever wanted. We are so deeply grateful for your presence on our wedding day, for capturing so many lovely moments (that we never even realized you captured at the time!), and for putting so much thought into your entire process. We see it! We love it.
Thank you so much, Sara. We feel so lucky to have had you as our wedding photographer. You are truly one crazy talented individual.

It was such a joy to work with Sara for our June wedding.
Sara was relaxed, which in turn made my husband and I feel relaxed. She was down for anything, gave us advice, and set such a chill and easygoing tone for the wedding.
It’s no surprise that our photos turned out beautifully; she captured funny, sweet, and candid moments effortlessly.
I really hope we get to work with her again! I can’t recommend her enough.

Sara captured our micro-wedding perfectly.
She is such a talented photographer, and she was so enjoyable to work with throughout the vendor selection process and especially on our wedding day. Her ease and expertise helped my husband and I relax.
We are so thankful we decided to hire a photographer, and specifically Sara.
She made taking lots of pictures feel natural, and she captured some amazing candid moments.

I can't say enough good things about Sara! She is incredible! Sara did our proposal, engagement, and wedding pictures and all three shoots were everything we hoped for and more. Not only does she produce the best pictures I've ever seen, but she is a dream to work with.
She is chill and go with the flow, but took charge on wedding day to keep family and the wedding party in line so as not to go over on timing.
If you don't hire Sara for your wedding day, you're making a huge mistake. Sara Bill Photography is the best!!!

We had the best experience with Sara!
She is professional, responsive, organized, and accommodating. I would recommend her to anyone. She did a great job listening to what we wanted in our photos and capturing the essence of our wedding and reception. She made us feel comfortable during our posed photos and was wonderful at managing a large wedding party for the posed photos. The candids were stunning as well.
Photos came back in a timely manner and the quality and website/link are easy to use. We will definitely use her for any future events. Thanks Sara!!
