Ember & Light Photography
Moments worth keeping.

Photographer & Founder
Sarah Mitchell
I fell in love with photography on a rainy afternoon in Portland, chasing light through puddles with a borrowed camera. Fifteen years later, that same curiosity drives every session.
I believe the best photos happen when you forget the camera is there. My approach is documentary-first — I create space for real moments, then quietly capture them. No stiff poses, no forced smiles. Just you, as you are.

We cried looking at our gallery. Claire captured moments we didn't even know were happening: a look between us, my grandma laughing, my dad wiping a tear. Absolutely irreplaceable.
Best family photos we've ever had. She made the kids feel completely at ease and the whole session felt like a fun outing. The photos are stunning and so authentically us.
Needed headshots and brand photos for my coaching business. Claire delivered images that are warm, professional, and perfectly on-brand. My website has gotten so many compliments since the update.
