When Clara called me, I knew 1. it was going to be this natural, woodsy, earthy affair, 2. I knew I would love working with her because she was exactly the kind of bride that we love being around – beautiful, funny, confident, laid back with an amazing heart for people and animals! My kind […]
Classic & Radiant Bridal Portrait / I especially love it when brides ask me to create a classic and simple indoor setting for their bridal portraits. And I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful bride for this session. Nancy killed it and Ardor’s downtown studio provided the best location. It’s so exciting that the space […]
Oh my gosh, we are so excited to share this beautiful, dreamy Mississippi winter wedding with y’all. It is to die for. The whole event was a romantic, warm, cozy, laid-back yet chic and lovely affair. Held at a private location, with the ceremony on the most stunning wooden bridge. We took about 3000 photographs […]
We LOVE this modern and stylish engagement session in the urban setting of Downtown Hattiesburg, Mississippi that was just so much fun. And so gorgeous on top of that! It was modern, stylish, fun and such a fresh perspective from the nature-y, outdoorsy session. It was a breath of fresh air to do an urban […]
We are so excited to share this wonderfully romantic engagement session in Mobile that we did at the end of last year. It is the perfect session to start out with this New Year, just because everything in this session embodies why we love to do them. We started out at the 5 Rivers Delta […]
You know what the most gorgeous part about this dreamy New Orleans Wedding at the Royal Sonesta Hotel is? Bridget’s parents got married at this very same location years ago! How cool is that?!?! Enjoy! About Starling and Sage: Authentic, Radiant, Moving and Cinematic. Our purpose is to document life around us with a fresh […]
So, this gorgeously dreamy New Orleans wedding doesn’t come without an amazing story, of course – First off, let me say this – Bridget and Frank had been together for SEVEN YEARS before getting engaged. Bridget told me this when I first met (we worked in the same building a couple years ago). Ever since she […]
A few days ago, Daniel asked me this – “Do you think God created us for each other?” I mean, come on, the whole idea of “The One”, created by Hollywood & romance novels, just seems so ridiculous, to a logical, rational person. But this is what I replied, “Absolutely.” And why did I say […]
Jessica said, “Steph, what haven’t you photographed? For my bridal, just do what you want.” When people say that to us, it’s a HUGE deal. Why? Because as much as people view us as artists, brides usually have an idea and a vision of their own. And you know what, this is their bridal portrait, […]
"I literally cried when we got our photos back. I felt so SO beautiful looking at our photos. How often can we say that with complete honesty?! I was floored that they captured my husband and so intimately, honestly and romantically. I love their aesthetic. It's raw and authentic, but beautifully crafted and organic."

Our pictures are modern, beautiful, and most importantly, they are our own as they aren’t a replica of any other wedding. No regrets. Starling and Sage are consummate professionals, timely, engaging, personable, and they deliver beyond expectations. Still one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.”
-deidre & cory

Starling + Sage are the dreamiest! As photographers, they have a unique artistic vision, and as people, they are kind and caring. Upon receiving our photographs, my husband pointed to a shot and said, "This one. This is the one we'll show our grandchildren one day."
