Storytelling that's crafted with care - Timeless. Classic. true-to-life. My approach to photography is rooted in storytelling. While I absolutely love to capture the big, meaningful moments of the day, I'm equally drawn to the quiet in-between moments that often become the most treasured memories. My approach is designed to help you stay present with each other and your loved ones while I document your wedding day as it naturally unfolds. Of course, I'll provide guidance when needed, but my goal is never to pull you out of the experience—it's to preserve it.

“Sarah Fischback Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Sarah was professional, attentive, kind and extremely organized. My sneak peak pictures are absolutely stunning - the photos are crisp, gorgeous and capture the natural beauty of our background as well as myself and my family in a beautiful way. Sarah had a detailed timeline for my entire day and although we got a bit off track, she did her best to get us back on schedule in a warm and kind way. At no point did I feel bombarded, as Sarah has a wonderful calmness, kindness and professionalism about her that allowed me and my wedding party to truly relax and enjoy the day. Sarah captured all the big and small moments, and I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Sarah Fischback Photography for any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience on their wedding day. Book her and her team and you will be able to truly enjoy!

From the start of the planning process, I felt at ease with Natalie.

Their attention to detail was evident as they meticulously planned each shot, ensuring the lighting and angles were just right. When the moment finally arrived, they both were discreet yet present, capturing every emotion and reaction beautifully. The photos and video they produced were nothing short of stunning.

I'm Felicia, the photographer behind Ellis Lens Photography, based in Fairfield, CA and serving the Bay Area, Sacramento, and surrounding areas. I picked up a camera in high school and never really put it down. After years of letting others talk me out of pursuing photography as a career I decided to stop listening and just go for it. Now with my wife by my side I'm turning this dream into my everyday reality. I'm proudly LGBTQ+ owned and affirming and I believe every couple deserves to feel completely celebrated on their wedding day.

“I reached out to Felicia to schedule a couple photoshoot with my dog and she was very accommodating and I absolutely loved all the pictures! She made us feel very comfortable and the pictures came out better than I would have hoped! I plan on reaching out to her to schedule another photoshoot.”
