THE SAGE + WILLOW DIFFERENCE

You don't need to know what to do in front of the camera.

That's my job.

From the way you stand to the placement of your hands, the smallest details make the biggest difference. I'll guide you through every step with natural direction, thoughtful posing and an experienced eye for light, so you can stop wondering what to do and simply be present.

The result is imagery that feels polished without feeling posed, elevated without feeling unfamiliar, and unmistakably you.

Meet the Photographer

The eye behind Sage + Willow.

I'm Monica, the photographer behind Sage + Willow.

For more than a decade, I've photographed people through some of the most meaningful seasons of their lives. From growing families and graduating seniors to professionals stepping into the next chapter of their careers.

My approach is equal parts artistry and direction. I pay attention to the details you shouldn't have to think about: the light, your angles, your hands, your expression and all the little adjustments that turn a photograph into a portrait.

You don't have to be comfortable in front of a camera. You simply have to show up. I'll take care of the rest.

Trusted Experience

Trusted with the moments and images that matter.

Choosing a photographer is personal. Whether I'm creating portraits for your home or the image that represents you professionally, my goal is the same: to make the experience effortless and deliver photographs you'll feel confident in.

  • “Monica is THE best. We used Sage + Willow for newborn photos that included photos with our 3 and 5 year old. She was excellent with all 3 kids and I felt like she was really dedicated to getting great photos that we loved! Once we got back the proofs, I loved her even more because the images are exactly what I wanted. We will definitely be using Sage + Willow again.”
