Mission
|
 |
Since 2000, Sarah Valentine’s Photography has been
professionally
photographing weddings, families, animals, homes, businesses and
gardens in their best light and has been a photographer
since the age of 13, when her Mother bought her first
Canon AE-1. Sarah’s true passion for photography
stems from her love of colors, shadows, lines and
textures, and whether she is shooting for a commercial
ad for a large development or a small wedding, her
strengths lies in the use of light and composition. She
thrives on repeat business by developing relationships
with her clients. She makes professional quality
photographs easily available in large format. She does
this by using a pricing structure that makes her digital
photographs a household name.

Happy New
Year Sarah,
I finally
ordered my pictures today. My favorite one that I would
like as a 13 X 19 from you is the third one in your
preview that is inbedded in your e-mail. It is the one
with 9 family members in it. Thank you again for these
great pictures.
Hope to
see you in the future for another sitting.
Gratefully,
Lawson

Bio
|
Even
as a child, photography fired Sarah Valentine’s
imagination. She learned the power of images from her
real father, who had a passion for travel and photography.
Many of his large safari photos hung on the walls of her
bedroom. Seeing the strength and grace of a cheetah
hanging from a tree made her want to duplicate that
experience. Her freshman year in high school at
Oldfields
School, Sarah
studied Ansel Adam’s zone system of exposure and
darkroom techniques. By her senior year, she was the
year book photographer. |
|
In
2000 she started
Sarah’s Visual
Tours,
providing an internet marketing service for realtors as
a part time venture in Marco Island, Florida. After
moving to Highlands, North Carolina in 2002, it became a
full time venture. The studio name, Rainhouse
Productions, reflects the new multimedia
marketing services that it now offers with the addition
of web site design, commercial photography, stock photos
and fine art photography as well as visual tours. The
additional tools help meet the ever changing marketing
demands in her community that include builders,
developers and realtors.
|
|
In 2008, Sarah has added portraits and weddings to the
portfolio and has done away with Rainhouse Productions and
now preferably goes by Sarah Valentine
Photography or sValentine Photos
or the Highlands Photographer.
Successfully filling my schedule as fast as I can make
it. I now work with the Laurel Magazine
and cover community activities throughout the
Highlands-Cashiers Plateau. |
|
Sarah
continues to seek opportunities to improve her skills.
Her vision is to travel and through her photographs
awaken awareness of the environment world-wide.
