AN ORGANIC SPACE FOR THOSE THAT VALUE THE SMALL MOMENTS.

An Experience Built on Intention

Choosing a photographer isn’t about finding someone to take photos. It’s about choosing the person who will stand closest to you during some of life’s most meaningful moments, guide you through them, and be trusted with how those memories are captured and carried forward. Whether you’re a senior grad, family, or just wanting some confidence for a project, I’m here with you.

The person you choose to document your story will shape how you experience it and how you remember it long after the session is over. This is about more than style or price. It’s about trust, presence, and care.

When you invest your trust in me, I invest everything I have into you, your experience, and your memories. Photographing people isn’t a button click for me. It’s a responsibility I take seriously. I come prepared with years of professional experience, a calm and guided approach, and the ability to adapt to real moments as they unfold—from changing light to unexpected circumstances to the in-between moments you didn’t know would matter most.

From thoughtful direction to quiet support, I’ll be there for you every step of the way, so you can feel at ease, stay present, and walk away with images that feel honest, grounded, and true to who you are.

Don’t just take my word for it!

“There are really no words to describe Sydney's photography, but I'll try because it's so amazing! Sydney is so sweet and creates such a comfortable and happy environment for her clients. I've done several shoots with her and my expectations are surpassed each time. Sydney's photography truly captures the beauty in any moment, and they are photos that I will admire for years to come.”

- L

“I just want to say that Sydney Rose is amazing! She took the time to give me direction about outfits and appropriate colors for the four of us. She walked me through every step and answered every question. It was truly nice to have someone listen to what I was looking for and actually deliver just that. Sydney is very professional yet also fun. I could not stop looking at the photos I got in return, I was truly amazed at the images she was able to capture and the quality of them. I was beyond impressed by her work and would hands down refer her to anyone that I can!”

Have a question? I have the answer.

What happens if the weather is bad or you need to cancel?

If the weather is un-photograph-able, I will email you before your session to reschedule. You will have one month to reschedule for a later date without any extra payment. However, the deposit will not be refunded if you need to cancel or do not show up.

Why do I require a deposit?

It is to confirm that I will not book anyone over you, and that time slot is 100% yours.

Do you have to purchase prints from the gallery shop?

I have a print shop connected to your gallery and highly recommend that you go through my shop for your prints as my computer is calibrated for their printers. If you go through Walgreens or Walmart, I cannot guarantee the quality and color correction.

What if I want more looks or locations?

No problem! Extra outfits and locations begin at $50. Just let me know what you're looking for, and we can include it in your session!

We feel really awkward in front of the camera, can you help?

Oh, 100% (btw, you’re probably not as awkward as you think)! You’ve found a fellow awkward gal, and I know all of the tips and tricks to create some amazing art together.

Do you charge travel fees?

Travel fees are vital for me if we are planning on heading somewhere out of the 30 mile radius from my home base of Clemson, SC. These fees cover my travel, potential lodging and car rentals.
