ABOUT SARMA
Congratulations on your engagement! We hope that you are enjoying looking through our portfolio and that you can envision yourselves in our style of photography.
Please email info@sarmaandco.com to get more details or say hello through our contact form. We look forward to learning about you and your wedding plans!
We have a passion for documenting celebrations honoring love of all kinds.
Sarma & Co. Photography is described as timeless, tried and true- creating images that are candid, honest, crisp and have energy and emotion. Wedding photos that will leave a lasting impression. We create imagery saturated with true to life color, neutral black and whites and natural skin tones. Our clients are couples who consider their wedding photography one of the most important investments they'll budget for during their planning process. Couples who treasure wedding images that are not chasing photography trends. Our images are not overly edited nor do we use trendy filters. We have no interest in processing techniques that are the latest fad and will quickly be out of date and cheesy wedding photos make us cringe. While we do certainly photograph the pretty details, we are constantly keeping our eyes on the organic moments going on around us and we believe the portraits are important too. We document your wedding day through an unobtrusive, relaxing and genuine approach letting the day unfold naturally.
Known for my calm demeanor, I will put you at ease on your wedding day allowing you to be yourself making the experience of being photographed very enjoyable and stress free. My photography is celebrated for capturing your true personalities on your wedding day reflecting your unique style. Couples are always amazed at all of the special moments that were candidly captured, never noticing us. I studied photography at New England School of Photography in Boston before moving to NYC and studying at Parsons School of Design. Throughout my 19 year editorial and wedding photography career, my work has been published in The Knot NY, The Knot NJ, Brides, Carats and Cake, Wedding Vortex, New York Magazine, Time Out NY, Style Me Pretty, TIAA and T. Rowe Price. I enjoy giving back by donating my art and services to the American Cancer Society and St. Jude's. In 2019 I partnered with One Tree Planted and joined a mission, a movement towards a greener, cleaner, more bio diverse and sustainable future. We donated 100 trees to be planted in Australia in honor of our 2019 clients and look forward to adding more trees in continued support to help wildfire recovery and mitigate climate change. In 2020, we partnered with One Tree Planted and NYC Parks to plant trees locally to improve the environment in parks and enhance public health. In my spare time, my son and I volunteer at a local animal shelter taking the dogs out for love and long walks.
On a more personal note, some things I love other than photography:
* My family. I've been married to my husband (who is also a photographer) for 20 years and we have two teenage boys whom we love more than anything.
* Spending time with our extended family.
* My houseplant collection. It's growing fast! (and I might even have an instagram account dedicated to all things botanical, horticultural and environmental... @photo_synthesis_project.)
* Swimming holes.
* The sound of the ocean and the smell of fresh cut grass.
* Hiking.
* The Moth storytelling events.
* Fall weekends upstate.
* Reading printed books.
* NPR
* Traveling.
* The morning light in my apartment.
Thank you for spending some of your time here.
