• WELCOME!

    Hello I'm Sarah Gardan & I take photos. I have the longest commute in the world because I live in Sydney, but work in Paris. I offer sessions in the City of Light during Spring, Summer & Fall. I also offer regular photography sessions in Sydney, Singapore, New York and beyond.

    My three wonderful children are my inspiration. I have a gorgeous 7 year old son, and two daughters : a brilliant 4 year old and a delightfully cheeky 20 month old.

    In my photography I strive to embrace the natural beauty of babies, children, families and couples. In essence to 'capture the magic' that shines in each of us. I specialise in natural light, so my sessions are always 'flash free' as I feel natural light really brings out the inner beauty of a child or moment.

    Joseph Campbell said, "follow your bliss" I'm lucky enough to follow mine and hopefully I'll be able to share a little bliss with you and your family along the way.

Juliette & The Louvre | Paris Child & Family Photographer | Sarah Gardan Photography

Last year I met the uber sweet little Juliette and her parents. We met one morning just outside The Louvre in Paris and I have to confess we had more than a little fun playing together. Of course I’m always in heaven photographing a super cute child, lovely backdrop with a good dose of childhood fun along the way. And Juliette certainly has a fun little streak. How adorable is she.

Sarah Gardan is offering a limited number of Summer Photography Sessions in Paris between June 14th and August 14th 2013. Please contact Sarah via the contact page on the Sarah Gardan Photography website for more information.

Julie & Cheyne | Wedding Photographer Perth | Sarah Gardan Photography

I recently had the wonderful opportunity to photograph the beautiful Julie and Cheyne on their wedding day in Perth. And what a stunning day it was. Full of love, beauty, emotion, laughter, friendship and fun. It was a real treat to be asked to capture Julie & Cheyne’s wedding day . Made even more meaningful as I am great friends with Julie’s brother Eric and his lovely wife Charlotte, my great buddies from Paris.

I felt so blessed to have the opportunity to photograph this gorgeous couple with their family and friends. Julie & Cheyne your wedding day was stunning and you guys truly are an amazing couple and no doubt have an incredible life ahead of you.  I can’t wait to share the rest of the images with you sometime soon, but in the meantime here’s a little taste of what is to come in the photo gallery of your beautiful wedding day.


Julie & Cheyne, you guys ROCK!!

Kirsty - Gorgeous Sarah – what a wonderful day it must have been – the pictures are just full of happiness :D

JAQUI + ERIC | NIELSEN PARK SYDNEY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER | SARAH GARDAN PHOTOGRAPHY

Last weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Jaqui and her husband Eric and their three gorgeous children Taryn, Asher and Bailey. I was instantly taken by their fabulous names, aren’t they awesome!! The family chose to have their family photos taken at the stunning Nielsen Park in the eastern suburbs of Sydney right on Sydney Harbour. It really is such a stunning location for family photographs (not to mention a swim on a hot summer’s day!!).

We were lucky as the morning was a little bit cooler than the average Sydney summer’s day so the kids didn’t get too hot and bothered. It was a lovely morning getting to know the family and discover the kids personalities. And of course I was in photographer’s heaven with such gorgeous kiddies!!

Jaqui & Eric, I had such a treat meeting you both and your family is just gorgeous. I’m busy working on your gallery and should be sharing it with you really soon. And just quietly I can’t wait!!

Sisters | Paris Family Portrait Photographer | Sarah Gardan Photography

Jacqueline Lai - Sarah, we LOVE these. You have captured the girls’ personalities beautifully. Now the difficult part comes, picking which ones we want. Thank you for a wonderful souvenir of our time spent in Paris.

Sophia & the Louvre | Paris Child & Family Photographer | Sarah Gardan Photography

I LOVE meeting families from all over the world and have to confess I LOVE how international the world has become as families jet off on holidays around the globe. How fabulous for little people to see the world and experience different cultures. And yes I am a self confessed travel junky.

So I was thrilled to receive an email from Camille in the Philippines to ask if I could capture her and her 6 year old daughter Sophia on their holiday in Paris.  Fast forward a few months, and one day in September we met at the Louvre for a portrait session with a Parisian flavour.

Camille, I had such a great time with you both and Sophia is just ADORABLE. You must be a super proud Mummy. Hope you like the sneak peek and I’m looking forward to sharing the rest of the images really soon.

If you are tempted to have Sarah Gardan capture the magic of your family why not drop Sarah an email via the contact page on the Sarah Gardan Photography website. Sarah is open to different locations around the world so feel free to suggest your city.
