Sarah Petrarca: Photographer

Sarah Petrarca is a super talented Rhode Island photographer, based out of Little Compton. Her brings a fresh perspective to the trade, currently working with companies such a Narraganset Beer, Marine Affair surfing magazine, and newly launched 1927 Beauty.

When I was looking to refresh headshots of my own, Sarah obliged, and I got to snap a few of her in return.

Day in the Life: Meg + Leo

I have recently met Meg, floral designer and business owner of Rockfarm Gardens. After spending time shooting her gorgeous terrariums and lush ecosystems contained within a recycled glass vessels, we switched our focus to mom and son Leo. I spent an hour with Meg and babe, following along in their daily mid-morning routine.

Jumping on the couch, playing and displaying his toys, and trying to school mom in the art of fishing were just a few of the highlights during out time together. It just goes to show that you don’t have to “do” much during a “day in the life photo session.” An ordinary day has so many little moments worth remembering.  The way your littlest clings to your leg, carries a baby doll in each hand, or lays their head on your chest.  This won’t last forever.   Checking under the bed for monsters will soon be a thing of the past, so let’s document these moments before they are gone.



Day in the Life: Alana + Joe

It had been a few months since I had last visited with Alana, Joe, and their two girls. Last I had seen them, baby T was just a few months old. Now, I had the privilege to hang with the family and see how things had changed during this family documentary photo session.

Over the span of 4-hours, I followed along through breakfast, a ballet class, and snack time to capture this beautiful family’s day-to-day routine.
