Sarah Iris Photography is a Sydney portrait photographer specialising in relaxed, on-location portraits at iconic locations such as the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge, and Sydney’s stunning beaches including Bondi, Bronte, Coogee, and Tamarama. Each session is designed to be fun, stress-free, and personal, so clients walk away with timeless photographs that capture the joy, love, and story of their lives in the places that matter most.

Many couples and families put off having portraits taken, and before they know it, the kids are grown up or leaving the nest. As a Sydney family photographer, Sarah believes in capturing these moments while they’re here – whether it’s children running barefoot on the sand, siblings laughing on a family holiday framed by the Sydney Harbour skyline, or quiet romantic moment of connection to remember for years to come.

Proposal sessions are also one of Sarah’s specialties. As an experienced Sydney proposal photographer, she helps couples plan a proposal that feels natural, memorable, and beautifully documented. From the dramatic backdrop of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge to the romantic beauty of Sydney’s beaches, she ensures the big ‘yes’ moment is captured with care and artistry.

Sarah has a gift for putting people at ease. With a warm, approachable style, she creates an enjoyable experience where genuine emotions shine through. Whether it’s a proposal, family holiday, or couple’s portrait, her goal is to tell each story with elegant, timeless images that reflect both personality and place. Her clients consistently describe their sessions as fun, stress-free, and meaningful – with the resulting images becoming unforgettable keepsakes.
