    I have nothing but positive things to say about Sara and Baby Bean Portraits. She is truly an amazing photographer and anyone who knows or cares about having excellent quality pictures taken will see the difference in her images.

    She uses natural lighting to bring out the "special" in each little "baby bean" she photographs. She has a wonderful disposition and makes families feel welcome and comfortable while shooting. Sara has been featured in books and articles about photography and her style for capturing your baby's personality sets her apart. I cannot imagine going anywhere else!

  • Michelle K.

    Our newborn photo session was absolutely perfect. Sara is a natural with babies and our little baby girl was settled and calm throughout the whole process. The studio is set up perfectly for babies and families. It was a privilege to see how Sara put together such beautiful settings and colors and the care she took to make everything perfect.

    I am a second time mom and I know that time passes too quickly. To have important moments like these captured in such a beautiful way is priceless. My four year old son adored Sara and she took some of the best pictures of him I've ever seen. The attention to detail is so evident in the pictures. They are gorgeous!!! Thank you!

  • Pamela S.

    I just wanted to take the time and say how grateful I am to have found Baby Bean! I looked and looked and looked for a great photographer to not only use for now but in the future. I FOUND HER! Not only is she a great photographer; but an even better person.

    I have worked with her for my Maternity, Newborn and Six Month photos. I adore her Key Eye on getting the best OMG moment photos a girl could ask for. I currently bought one of the bundle packages that was well worth every penny. I have a canvas hanging in my house that I and every visitor gleams over :) If you're looking for a photographer, you found her! Trust me these photos are timeless!

  • Kris A.

    Baby Bean Portraits are some of the finest I've seen. When I look at [Sara's] images they melt my heart. Her images are full of creativity and love. They are like fine poetry, every image telling its own story. One look at Sara's work tells me she is displaying her true passion and calling...Thank you so much for sharing your work, Sara.


  • Victoria C.

    Sara Kovacs/BabyBean Portraits is by far one of the most talented photographers I have ever used. In fact, she is the ONLY one I use now. When I was deciding on who I was going to use, several factors came into play. Someone who could take very unique, quality portraits that didn't look like everyone else's photos. In addition, I wanted pictures that were timeless and not generic and look dated in a few years. I also wanted a photographer who had a keen eye for lighting and also knew how to pose you so that they captured you, or your children's best features. Awkwardly posed photos can make even the most attractive people look funny.

    Furthermore, I wanted someone who was great with children. I used Sara for my newborn photos and she was so tender and gentle with my newborn. In fact, my daughter never woke up during the whole shoot! Furthermore, I was more impressed when I went back and had my daughter's first year pictures taken. My daughter is the wiggliest, busiest, high energy kid and she never sits still. Despite all her wiggling, she was able to get the most beautiful shots. I was so impressed!

    Lastly, Sara has become such a wonderful friend that I now share my special family moments with her. I went through 8 years of infertility, and when we finally adopted my daughter, I really wanted the newborn pictures to be special, and she exceeded expectations. I've had several people tell me that the newborn shot she took of me holding my sleeping baby was the most beautiful picture they have ever seen. In conclusion, Sara is extremely honest and ethical. We were in the process of adopting a second baby and so I paid for the session in advance, to secure a day for the shoot. When my adoption fell through and the birthmother changed her mind last minute, Sara refunded the full amount, no questions asked. Most photographers will keep the deposit, she didn't do that. I was so grateful.
